Chapter 214

Chapter 214:

Several individuals with brightly colored hair were seen chasing that teenager down the street, wielding iron bars. Bryan quickly parked his car and glanced over, catching just a glimpse of them vanishing into an alley.

He quickly stopped Eileen, who was ready to pursue them, and warned, “Don’t act rashly.” Those people were armed, and rescuing Milford would not be simple. Moreover, Bryan’s priority was ensuring Eileen’s safety.

“There’s a police station just around the corner from the school. Head there now and get help. I’ll keep in contact with you until you bring the police,” Bryan said calmly, already sharing his real-time location with Eileen.

Noticing Eileen hesitating, he added firmly, “Why are you still here? Go now.”

“Okay.” Eileen quickly followed Bryan’s instructions and sprinted toward the police station. Upon arriving, she gathered several officers on duty and briefed them on the situation as they raced through two streets and halted at a dead-end.

“The police are here; everyone stop!” Eileen’s heart raced, her mind filled with images of Bryan confronting a group of thugs to protect Milford. She knew Bryan was outnumbered and couldn’t help but fear for his safety.

However, upon a closer look, she saw several people sprawled on the ground in the alley, while Bryan was leaning against a wall and smoking a cigarette. His shirt was stained, but it didn’t diminish his commanding presence. Beside him stood a dejected Milford.

Hearing Eileen, Bryan and Milford both looked her way. Bryan took a final puff from his cigarette, extinguished it, and approached her.

One of the police officers behind Eileen inquired, “Miss, who are you reporting exactly?” It seemed obvious to the police that the individuals on the ground were the culprits. However, those people had been badly beaten, and the man approaching Eileen looked like someone not to be messed with.

Eileen pointed to the figures on the ground and said, “They attacked my student. My boyfriend was just protecting him. Please don’t get the wrong idea.”

As she spoke, Bryan had already reached her side. She leaned closer to him and whispered, “If you could handle them, why did you have me bring the police?”

“I can handle them on my own. But if you were here, it would be a different story,” Bryan responded seriously. “We haven’t done anything wrong. What’s there to worry about?”

If Eileen had been present, Bryan would have had a weak spot. That was why he had asked her to leave to bring the police. Noticing Eileen’s disheartened expression, Bryan quirked an eyebrow and took the lead in talking to the police.
