My heart dropped. Those were the guys who
jumped Brandon.
This couldn’t be happening.
“Sarah, you…‘

“Ha ha ha, I paid them to hit Brandon, I was
going to save him, I could have made him fall
for me, and made Ryan jealous! But you
stopped me! Now they both like you!”
“Do you know how much I did to win them
back!”
“This is all your fault!”
く
“You’re insane… How can a woman be this
crazy!”
“The Xu family won’t pick an heir! I need both
of those men for my future!”
I grabbed the scalpel, trying to defend myself.
“Sarah! Sarah!” Ryan kicked the door.
“Eleanor, you’re done for.”
Sarah snatched the scalpel and cut her own
face.
She looked scared and helpless.
Ryan rushed over. “Sarah! I’m here!”
He looked at me, then grabbed Sarah and
<
gently comforted her. “It’s okay Sarah, I’m
here, you’re going to be okay.”
Sarah sobbed. “Ryan, you’re here,
otherwise…”
Ryan was so worried, he carried Sarah out.
I wanted to go with him, but the scarface guy
pulled me back.
“Miss Eleanor, I kidnapped her for you, are you leaving?”
I grabbed Ryan’s coat.
Ryan turned around and slapped me. “You
went too far, Eleanor! I was worried you’d
been taken too!”
I held my face and cried. “It wasn’t me,
Ryan…

“Stop it! I was fooled by your face! You’re
disgusting.”
He pushed me towards the thugs.
I was dragged into the darkness, reaching out
for help.
The good times were over.
The thugs were laughing, pulling down their
pants.
“Can anyone save you now, bitch?”
I looked at him, crying and laughing.
L
“She’s crazy.

Scarface ripped my clothes and told another
thug to take pictures.
“Get all of it, Sarah said that she’s loose, and made Ryan fall for her. Let me enjoy her!”
He grabbed my chin. “Close your mouth, or
everyone will see these pictures.”
He moved down.
I grabbed a piece of glass and stabbed him.
He screamed.
He hit me, and I couldn’t feel it anymore.
I heard Ryan slamming the car door.
く
I knew that Ryan was gone.
I was curled on the ground.
I heard the thug’s scream.
I lifted my head.
Brandon was covered in blood.
He gave me his coat.
Why did he save me?
I couldn’t say anything, and I passed out.
I woke up the next day in a hospital.
I remembered what happened and got up to
leave.
Г
I realized I was naked.
I was looking for clothes when I heard a
noise.
Brandon ran out in a towel.
Seeing me, he pushed me to the bed and
pulled the sheets over us.
His skin touched me.
I struggled.
He held me and said, “If you move, I’ll do it
now.”
