Wed to the Billionaire Brother of My Spouse by Doris

Chapter 6 The Pillar of the Family

Jasmine turned in terror to shield her son. "Daniel... what do you... what are you going to do?"

"What are you here for?! Jasmine has already served five years - isn't her five years in prison enough for redemption?" Richard stepped in front of Jasmine, glaring at Daniel with anger boiling in his eyes.

"Redemption?" Daniel laughed. "How could she ever repay what she owes me? Maybe I'll just take care of this little bastard right here?"

Jasmine stared at Daniel in horror; she knew he was dead serious. Desperately, she knelt down. "Daniel, I will do whatever you've asked of me; just give me a few days. I beg you, please."

All she wanted was to come back and be with her child. Was a few days too much to ask?

"Jasmine, get up! He wouldn't dare hurt us," Richard said tenderly, though his heart ached at the sight of her. She hadn't always been like this. The Jasmine of the past was like a pure white rose, but now...

"You think I wouldn't dare?" Daniel sneered. "Richard, do you know nothing of the world?"

With a casual wave of Daniel's hand, his bodyguard charged at Richard, landing a solid punch. Richard was tall and built, toughened by years of labor on construction sites. He was not one to back down from a fight.

But Daniel's goons outnumbered him; five bodyguards swarmed over him, quickly putting him at a disadvantage.

"Stop... please, Daniel! I'm begging you, stop!" Jasmine cried, falling to her knees before Daniel, pleading for him to cease the assault. "I'll do anything you want, just please, spare my brother. I'm begging you."

"Don't beg him!" Richard yelled desperately, trying to come to his sister's aid, but he couldn't break free from the bodyguards' grip. "If you've got the guts, then beat me to death."

"You'd do anything I want?" Daniel sneered, tilting Jasmine's chin up with his hand. "You're really something, aren't you?"

"Get off my mom!" Justin lunged forward, sinking his teeth into the back of Daniel's hand.
