The Woman From Hell

The car had a strong engine, so when the gas pedal was slammed on, it released a very loud noise.

I was startled and thought Theo would run over the man's body without a single care. I was just about to scream for him to step on the brakes when the man lying in front like a corpse suddenly got up from the ground as though he had an adrenaline rush.

He lay in front of the car, the corners of his mouth and face full of blood as he grinned at Theo. "Not going to help out a person in need?"

I was stunned.

Theo looked at him with a cold gaze, not saying a word.

The man chortled. "Since you witnessed it, why not take me to the hospital? My leg is broken and I can't walk anymore."

This was my first time seeing a person who was badly beaten up being so shameless.

Theo narrowed his eyes and spat out a word from his thin lips. "Scram!"

Succinct and direct.

The man was shameless and did not plan to give up just like that. He looked absolutely roguish. "I'll stay this way if you don't take me to the hospital. I apologize in advance if I frighten the gorgeous woman beside you."
