Chapter 354

Meanwhile, Dahlia's desperate cries echoed through the living room, "No! Don't touch me! Let go of me!"

Wesley was so caught up in the moment that he didn't hear the door open, completely unaware that Charles had entered.

Dahlia's sudden struggle, resistance, and cries didn't raise a red flag for him; he figured she was just really getting into the role.

So, he played along, taking on the part of the aggressor, pinning Dahlia down. With a fake roughness, he sneered, "Scream! Louder! The louder you scream, the more it fires me up! Now that you're in my grip, let's see who comes to your rescue!"

Wesley was so wrapped up in his act that he missed the brief, triumphant smile that flitted across Dahlia's lips.

It wasn't until Dahlia cried out, "Charles, save me!" that Wesley froze at the mention of Charles.

At first, he thought he must have misheard her.

But in the next instant, he felt a powerful grip around his neck, yanking him back with force.

Whoever it was had incredible strength, effortlessly lifting his nearly six-foot frame.

Before he could wrap his head around what was happening, a swift kick hit his chest, sending him reeling back several steps, stumbling, and crashing to the floor.

His back and head hit the ground hard, pain shooting through him, and Wesley felt the blood rush in his chest.

Just as he was about to get up, a bodyguard who'd followed in planted a foot squarely on his chest, pinning him down.
