"It's okay, Mom. The hospital I went to was one of the best, and they were very professional. We don't have to go to another one."

Mabie nodded, but she was still not at ease. Therefore, she checked on Vera's body again to make sure she wasn't hurt anywhere else.

"Other than injuring you, did they do anything else to you?"

Knowing what Mabie was asking about, Vera shook her head.

"That's good. Those people should rot in hell. Didn't their parents teach them not to mistreat women? They are such b*stards!"

"Mom, don't be angry."

"Oh right, you said Ernest saved you?"

"Yeah, he did. When I was delivering the food, I ran into him at the nightclub. He was there to meet someone. He probably realized that I didn't leave the club, so he came and saved me. He called the police after, and everyone went to the police station."

"I see. We should properly thank Mr. Lowell well for saving you. If it wasn't for him, I don't know what would have happened to you."

During the situation, not only did no one in the room help Vera, the people who bullied her were all men. It was chilling for Mabie just to think about it.

"Yes, I'll find an opportunity to thank him."

After David found out about the incident at night, he repeated Mabie's actions. However, David reacted more aggressively than Mabie. Just as he went into the kitchen, she grabbed his wrist to stop him. David said that he was going to get a knife to kill those men.

Vera tapped her forehead helplessly as she stood aside.

"Dad, killing people is against the law. You'll have to go to jail too."

"Am I supposed to just sit by and watch my daughter get bullied?" David replied.

"Vera said that those b*stards would be punished by the law. We shouldn't meddle with it. Or we could teach them a lesson by hiring someone to beat them up after they're out from jail to show them it was a bad idea to bully our daughter."

After that, Mabie pointed at the kitchen knife in David's hand.
