Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 209 Calling the Police

Eric looked at me with concern, draping his suit jacket over my shoulders. He gently patted my back and said, "I'm here now."

His voice carried a soothing calmness that helped relax the tension in my body. "Wait for me a moment."

Eric softly spoke into my ear, then stood up from the bed. He towered over Jeremiah, who was still sprawled on the floor from where Eric had thrown him earlier.

Jeremiah didn't seem to expect Eric to arrive so quickly. He looked at Eric in shock, staring at him for a while before stammering out an explanation. "M-Mr. Flint, she's the one who seduced me. I was testing her for you, and it turns out she's not even worth marrying."

Eric gave a cold snort, clearly uninterested in his words. Eric raised his arm. His hand was balled into a fist as he delivered a powerful blow.

Soon, the only sound in the room was Jeremiah's agonized cries.

Once Jeremiah's voice started to fade, I quickly stood up and grabbed Eric's arm. "Stop it," I urged.

Eric turned to look at me and said nothing, but there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
