Chapter 78 She Was Injured for Protecting Me 

But it was too late. 

As Jeffrey shouted, the man’s dagger had slashed Betty’s arm. 

“Ah…” 

Feeling the piercing pain, Betty trembled and fell to the ground. 

Jeffrey rushed to the man and punched him directly! 

 

Old Bruce served in the army before, so he 

had always been strict with his descendants. 

Jeffrey and the other children learned basic 

martial arts and karate since childhood. Just 

now, he went blank with fear, but he made a quick move and brought the man down with 

a punch after he responded. 

“Betty!” Jeffrey ignored the man on the ground, rushed to Betty who had collapsed, and helped her up. 

Looking at her pale face and her silk shirt that had been dyed red by blood, Jeffrey felt 

like his heart was severely punched! 

The next second, he quickly looked around at the people who were scared stiff and shouted, “What are you doing? Call an ambulance!” 

The others responded and hurriedly called the ambulance with trembling hands. 

Jeffrey held Betty tightly. Betty turned stiff at his sudden intimate move. She whispered, “Calm down. Only my arm is hurt. Let go of –me. They are watching.” 

But Jeffrey didn‘t seem to hear her. He just covered her bleeding wound with his hand, shouting angrily while trembling, “Betty! Are you an idiot? Do you know how dangerous it was! Why did you rush to me?” 

Jeffrey seemed to have forgotten that the people of their magazine were watching them around. He also forgot that he hated Betty and that Betty betrayed him two years
