Hayes smoked quietly, his calm expression impenetrable, causing Mia’s anxiety to skyrocket.

After an agonizing silence, he still had not uttered a word.

Taking this as his approval, Kenneth reached out to seize Mia’s hand.

Despite her injuries, Mia’s agility remained intact.

Fueled by sheer determination, she swiftly rose to her feet and delivered a lightning -fast kick as Kenneth’s hand drew near.

Her movements were so fluid that everyone was caught off guard.

Kenneth tumbled to the floor, dumbfounding everyone—except for Hayes.

He watched the young woman with intense interest, a sly smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.

“You damn bitch, you’re begging for it!”

Kenneth snarled, his face twisted with rage as he leaped up and lunged at Mia.

She retreated with lightning speed to the side of a coffee table, her eyes catching a glimpse of a paring knife.

With a smooth, practiced motion, she snatched the knife just as Kenneth’s fist closed in on her.
