Amidst the darkness, Elvis‘ deep–set eyes appeared to draw people’s souls in. He stood before Nola, his face cold and impassive, his lips tightly sealed, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

Javion caught up, but he didn’t see who the person was and assumed it was the owner of the car coming to cause trouble.

“I’m sorry. My girlfriend and I just had a little argument. We’ll leave now.”

When Elvis heard Javion refer to her as his girlfriend, his face darkened. He easily grabbed Javion’s wrist and applied some force, causing Javion to cry out in pain.

“What are you trying to do?”

“When did my wife become someone else’s girlfriend? Mr. Lee, do you have an explanation for me?”

Only now did Javion get a clear look at who was standing in front of him. He had seen Elvis before, but he never thought they would meet here.

“Didn’t Elvis and Nola have problems in their relationship? How could he show up here now?” thought Javion, feeling incredulous.

As he looked at Nola’s disheveled appearance, with purple bruises on her lips and stains on her clothes, Elvis couldn’t help but think to himself that she had the nerve to say she was tough. He had only been away for a few days, and if he hadn’t shown up today, would he have received a call to identify her body?

This woman could always cause trouble for herself.

Elvis had countless reproaches in his mind, but seeing her in such a sorry state made his heart ache, and he couldn’t bear to speak.

Amid Javion’s screams on the street, there was a sharp crack that jolted Nola back to reality. Javion was drenched in sweat, gripping his right hand, his face drained of color.
