Watching Adler being completely under Sophie's thumb, Jenna couldn't help but facepalm. "Do as you please then."

Just hope Adler doesn't end up crying about regretting it later.

"Jenna, I want to ask you, that move you pulled on Griffin, did you learn it a long time ago?"

"Yeah."

Jenna nodded. "Not only do I know it, Adler does too. When we were kids, Grandpa always liked to train us. You know, for families like ours, getting kidnapped is almost routine, especially when we were younger. Rival businesses or kidnappers often targeted us, hoping to get a hefty ransom. Grandpa believed that whether we were boys or girls, we all needed to know how to protect ourselves. He taught us specifically for that."

"Actually, the backstab move is simple; the hardest part is to appear weak first."

Adler chimed in, "Grandpa Lennon drilled it into us from a young age that if we were caught, we had to show weakness first, let the captor lower their guard, and then strike when they least expect it. He taught us various techniques, like grappling and judo throws, but I never got as good as Jenna. Jenna has always been into this stuff, even took up kickboxing as a kid. Griffin really picked the wrong target. If it had been me, I probably would have been overpowered in no time!"

"You realize your fighting skills aren't up to par?"

Jenna shook her head helplessly, having hoped to find a man who could always protect her. But now, seeing Adler's feeble physique, it seemed she would have to be the one taking care of him. Sophie nodded, saying, "I see..."

"If you want to learn, I can teach you. Trust me, it'll come in handy when you least expect it!"

"Sure!"

Sophie readily agreed.
