Chapter 126 Teach Her A

Lesson

Thiago stood next to Brenna, adjusting his attire before gently stopping her. "You don't have to do this. I'll take care of this," he said.

Both of them shared the same goal-to discover who wanted them dead. They had easily overpowered these assailants, who were clearly competent and ruthless.

Had it not been for their frequent brushes with danger in Norview, which had sharpened their skills, the outcome of today's fight might have been disastrously different.

Brenna nodded, sharing a knowing look with Thiago as they quickly understood each other's thoughts.

It was unclear whom these attackers were specifically targeting, as both Brenna and Thiago had made several powerful enemies.

They looked calmly at Jay, who was screaming in agony now.

With no hesitation, Thiago drove a steel pipe into Jay's fractured leg and then pulled it out.

"Ah-" A horrific scream echoed from Jay.

Brenna slightly furrowed her brow. "Stop screaming," she said impatiently.

Once Thiago was satisfied that Jay had been roughed up enough, he crouched beside him and used the steel pipe to tug at his collar, exposing a tattoo that marked loyalty to the infamous Viper-a high-ranking criminal on Interpol's most- wanted list. From the looks of it, Jay was nothing more than a low-level henchman. If Viper truly knew who they were dealing with, he wouldn't have wasted time sending a pack of fools like this.

Thiago said to Jay, "Who hired you? Tell me the truth, and I will make this easier for you."

His voice was gentle, as if he were having a casual conversation, but to Jay, it sounded like a voice from hell.

Brenna and Thiago looked like ruthless monsters-outwardly ordinary,
