Hearing that, Hanson stopped in his tracks. The sympathy he had in his heart for Angeline disappeared when he recalled the latter’s harsh words. With that, he left with Joseline.

Joseline glanced at Angeline and sneered at her miserable state. This is what you get for pissing me off! Let’s see how long you can stay smug and arrogant!

The crowd chattered away, and Angeline pretended to be deaf.

After all, she had already learned how to keep her cool and stay calm, having endured five years of hardship.

She helped herself up from the ground and winced at the glasses poking deep into her palm. When she was about to pull them out, a huge hand grabbed her by the arm.

The next moment, a man’s deep voice rang above her head. “If you don’t want your hand, you might as well cut it off. It’s easier and quicker that way.”

Angeline raised her head, only to see Evander’s perfect face and his deep frown.

“Mr. Golding, what are you—”

Instead of answering her, Evander looked at the crowd and said emotionlessly, “Do you all have nothing better to do?”

Intimidated by his words, the crowd dispersed.

Evander looked at the disheveled Angeline with disdain. In a manner one would never describe as gentle, he removed his jacket and threw it on Angeline’s body.

Looking at her bloody hands, Evander couldn’t help but frown again. However, despite being irritated and annoyed by her situation, he reached out and scooped her up.

Angeline’s eyes went wide with surprise, and her body stiffened. “Let me down. I can walk on my own…”

“You’d better be quiet. I don’t have much patience.” The man’s voice was deep and clear.
