Side Chick Era... Over

Chapter 595

Sensing her pain, Lex smirked in amusement. He relished this-watching his prey suffer, powerless to fight back.

In a flash, Sharon raised her free hand and swung it hard toward his face.

But Lex had anticipated the move. He caught her wrist mid-air with unsettling ease.

Sharon’s pupils contracted. Even if she had been slow to react before, she now understood-Lex wasn’t just anyone. He was clearly trained.

She tried to knee him in the groin, but they were standing too close-she had no space to maneuver. Before she could move her leg, he stepped down firmly on her foot with his leather shoe.

Sharon was just an ordinary woman. She couldn’t throw a punch to save her life. The gap between them, in strength and in skill, was undeniable. She was no match for him.

Lex watched her struggle with a mocking gleam in his eyes, like a cat toying with a trapped mouse.

“You want me to let go?” he drawled. “Beg me, and maybe I will.”

Sharon stared at him, and in that moment, he reminded her of Cole’s shameless friends-men who bullied the weak just to feel

powerful.

Back then, she had naively believed Cole was simply bad at judging people. But now she realized, birds of a feather flock together. Maybe those men had been sent by Cole himself to humiliate her, to crush her confidence.
