She Got A Better Man

Chapter 43

The teacher wasn't taking pleasure in Marsh's predicament. She simply believed the kid desperately needed someone who could actually rein him in. Without proper guidance, he was on a fast track to becoming a lost cause, potentially even a threat to society. Elvira, determined to teach him a lesson for his latest school fight, dragged him out of the school. Despite his size, nearly matching hers in height and definitely in weight, he tried and failed to shake her off. Elvira's grip was surprisingly strong. making any attempt at escape futile. "Seriously, what are you made of? You're way too strong for a woman!" Marsh complained, glaring at her after failing to break free.

"And you, stuffing yourself with junk food until you're as big as a pig and as feeble as a chicken, don't exactly scream 'manly!" She shot back, not pulling any punches and leaving him red-faced with embarrassment.

Humiliated and outmatched, Marsh didn't dare retaliate. He had learned the hard way that Elvira meant business. A couple of sharp kicks for dawdling had made that painfully clear.

Outsmarted and outmaneuvered, he was fuming.

As they reached the school gates, Elvira hailed a cab to take him to the hospital to make amends.

But then, a suspicious black car approached them. Elvira, sensing danger, pulled Marsh back, but his reluctance and size made their retreat sluggish.

Men in masks emerged from the car, clearly there for Elvira.

They were equipped with sedatives and various tools for abduction. Marsh, having never faced such a scenario, was petrified, crouching and covering his head, leaving Elvira unable to pull him away.

Frustrated to the brink by Marsh's foolishness, Elvira found herself in a dire situation as the assailants advanced. She managed to knock one down but was forced to release Marsh.

Just as the captors were about to seize her, another group of masked figures appeared, sparking a sudden clash. With no idea who these new arrivals were, Elvira was confused and couldn't tell friends from foes. Her priority shifted to escaping the chaos with Marsh. But she wasn't quick enough.

One of the original attackers grabbed Marsh, pressing a knife to his throat.
