Chapter 2842

Thomas’ appearance made Steven furrow his brow in annoyance. He stared coldly back at Thomas and said, “I’ll never be able to fully understand the pain you’ve gone through, and I never once said that you should forgive Denise for her wrongdoings, but you’re a man, Thomas, so do you honestly think it’s appropriate for you to punish a woman this way?

“There are plenty of ways to get revenge on a woman who crossed you, so why do you have to choose such an undignified way and force her to sell her own body and soul? Not only that, but you even said you’d send some people to help her if she couldn’t accomplish her task by daylight. How the hell are you going to do that?”

Thomas narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. “I don’t think I have to explain anything more to you.”

“You-” Steven narrowed his eyes menacingly. “Do you think just because I’ve always been a mild- mannered person I wouldn’t dare to lay a finger on you?”

With that, he pulled his sleeves up and took a small step toward Thomas. “I admit that oftentimes, I’d choose to settle conflicts civilly over violence, and in some people’s opinions, I do this because I’m a coward, but things are different now.

“This time, I’m doing this to protect my family!”

He lunged in Thomas‘ direction and swung his fist right at Thomas‘ face!

Thomas never expected that Steven, the always mild–mannered and polite gentleman, would resort to violence. Thus, he did not manage to dodge his punch in time, and Steven’s fist struck his face hard. Steven’s punch packed so much that Thomas staggered backward, having to take two steps to steady himself. However, before he could even regain his composure, Steven raised his other fist.
