Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1150 Heading to the Outskirts

Nicole's eyes darkened instantly, and she coldly warned, "Do you know who I am? If you lay a finger on me, both the Gardner and Wrenn Families won't spare you!"

Alas, her words fell on deaf ears as the thugs became even more brazen in their mockery at her warning.

"Hahaha, this chick is moments away from her demise, yet she still dares to act tough."

"Exactly! Look at her, all pampered and spoiled. Who cares about the empty threats from the Gardner and Wrenn Families? By the time we're done with her, there won't be a trace left to find!"

"Hahaha, she is quite an amusing one."

After they expressed their disdainful remarks, those men began to approach her.

One of them even reached out and caressed her face with a lecherous touch.

Nicole recoiled as though she had come into contact with something utterly repugnant. Her gaze locked onto the burly man before her, a fiery crimson intensity burning in her clear eyes.

Meanwhile, the man who had touched her face sighed in admiration as he remarked, "Tsk tsk, her skin is incredibly smooth and delicate. Clearly, she has been well cared for."

As his words hung in the air, his hands inched toward her collar.

Before Nicole could react, a ripping sound resonated through the air. Her collar was violently torn open, and a large expanse of her bare skin was exposed.

Instantly, her eyes turned a fiery red.

Although she was forced to endure countless trials over the years, she had always prided herself on her strength. However, as she was faced with this kind of situation, an unsettling sourness tingled in her nose.

A churn of discomfort gripped her stomach, and a wave of nausea coursed through her body.

She valiantly fought against the urge to vomit as she clenched her fists.

Just as the man drew nearer to her, she suddenly rose up and forcefully slammed her head into his.

Caught off guard by her unexpected move, the man let out a scream and stumbled backward.

Nicole put all her strength into that strike, and the impact of her blow left a vivid crimson mark on her fair forehead.

The burly man sucked in a sharp breath of pain. After he had managed to calm down, his ferocious gaze locked onto Nicole. His hands, hanging by his side, curled into fists as he gritted his teeth and cursed, "Damn it, I'm going to kill this b*tch right now!"

After he snarled those words, he prepared to make a move.

Unfortunately, he was promptly restrained by the two men beside him.

"Wait! Don't forget Logan's instructions. If he finds out about the injury on her forehead, we'll probably get an earful again."

The man obviously didn't want to let Nicole off the hook. He touched his forehead, his eyes filled with a fierce intensity as he questioned, "Are we just going to let this woman off?"

"We can't do much while we're in the car. Let's wait until we get off," one of the men whispered.

With those words, the man eased up slightly. Then, he glared at Nicole maliciously and growled, "I can't wait to see what you're gonna do later!"

Nicole let out a sigh of relief, thankful that things had not taken a turn for the worse.
