Chapter 45 Escape from San Francisco

Richard's struggle was frenzied. "Come at me if you dare, you son of a bitch!"

The bandages on Jasmine's ear were soaked with fresh blood; it seemed she might truly go deaf in her left ear.

Collapsed on the ground, Jasmine tried to crawl towards Justin, who was still wiping away blood, his face etched with terror.

"Richard, that bitch almost got my sister killed yesterday, and managed to draw Ethan into her mess. She's got some nerve," spat Evan, before his boot landed brutally on Jasmine's stomach, as if infuriated by her newfound protection.

"Jasmine, you're getting more and more capable, aren't you? What tricks did you use to seduce Ethan?" Evan yanked Jasmine's hair again, forcing her to look. "Watch closely."

After speaking, Evan signaled to the bodyguard to move against Richard. "Which hand of yours touched my sister inappropriately, huh? I want your sister to watch closely as I cripple you."

Richard struggled, but his right hand was pinned to the ground.

He learned maintenance during his time in the military and specialized in auto repair after being discharged. His hands were his livelihood; his skill in fixing cars depended entirely on them.

If they were to mangle Richard's hands, they might as well be taking his life.

"Please... don't..." Jasmine knelt on the ground, begging Evan in panic. "Take my hands, mine, just... leave my brother be, please..."

Her voice was hoarse as she pleaded for Evan to spare Richard.

But Evan held her there mercilessly, forcing her to watch.

A bodyguard picked up a mechanic's hammer and savagely smashed it down on Richard's hand, repeatedly, turning flesh and bone into a blur of gore...
