The moment Lawrence committed to the punch, he stopped being a ghost and became a target. A vicious, triumphant grin split the Brutal Man’s face. The "opening" had been a feint, a trap laid by a veteran predator for an eager amateur.

Instead of pulling back to defend, the Brutal Man simply absorbed the blow. Lawrence's fist connected with a solid thud, but it was like punching a brick wall. The man’s core muscles were iron-hard, and the punch did little more than annoy him.

But the real damage was done to Lawrence's rhythm. For a split second, he was stationary, off-balance, his body extended.

"That's it! He took the bait!" a voice cackled from the darkness.

The Brutal Man’s left hand, which had been held back, shot out faster than a cobra. It wasn't a fist this time, but a claw-like grip that clamped around Lawrence's still-extended forearm with crushing force.

CRACK.

A sickening sound, not quite a break but a severe strain of tendons and bone, echoed in Lawrence's own skull as a jol

    Reaching under her bed, Theresa brought out a bottle of rubbing alcohol and a pack of cotton swabs."Where is it?" Her voice was calm as she examined the wound on his cheek, her hand moving awkwardly toward his face."Here. Are you going to...?" Lawrence forced a smile. He had only meant to tease her earlier, but the raw reality of her situation made him swallow his words. He felt uncomfortable, too. His hands fidgeted, unsure where to place them."Stop moving." Theresa frowned slightly and gave the restless Lawrence a hard stare."Okay," Lawrence forced another smile.A pleasant, lilac fragrance drifted toward him. The floral aroma twirled around Lawrence's nose. Her flawless neck was decorated with a simple silver necklace; subconsciously, Lawrence remembered she had worn the same one on the bus.When she leaned forward to clean the cut, her loose-fitting shirt shifted, offering a brief glimpse of her collarbone and the soft curve of her chest. It was a modest view, nothing compared

    Plus, if he didn't pay the bill, unless Theresa lived in his penthouse forever, there was no way he could constantly protect her. And he couldn't let her live in the penthouse because Sophia, Jasmine, Hazel, and other women would visit him in the future.Hearing Lawrence's words, Bones, who was relieved to at least leave with the loan payment, sighed in genuine relief. He immediately gave his account details. Lawrence transferred twenty-four thousand dollars, even though the loan was only twenty-two thousand, which confused Bones."Use the extra two thousand for you and your boys," Lawrence said, waving them off dismissively.With that, they helped their two half-beaten teammates and rushed out of the alleyway without daring to ask Lawrence for his name or anything else. A person like him was someone you did not want to meet twice."Huh? Blood?" After they left, Lawrence touched his cheek and felt a small smear of blood. Only then did he remember he hadn't completely dodged the knife

    "You want a cigarette?"Bones paused, momentarily stunned. He didn't even know who this person was. The guy had asked them to join him for coffee, and now he had the guts to ask if he needed a cigarette? Couldn't he see they were in the middle of something? Was he not scared?With teary eyes, Theresa looked at Lawrence in disbelief. Her face had shock written all over it. Why did someone she barely knew save her first from those lecherous men on the bus, and now save her here again?"Who are you, and how dare you talk to our big boss like that?" one of the schoolboy thugs behind Bones yelled."My bad. I didn't know he was your boss," Lawrence said, his tone light. "Well, actually, I was really just coming over here for some food. But who would have expected me to meet my friend Theresa over here? As you all know, I'm handsome and she's beautiful. Isn't it right for the knight to swoop in and save the damsel?" Lawrence laughed softly, making the gang members even more confused.Was he

    "Oi, look who we have here? The running mouse thinking she can escape the chasing cats." A guy with a clean-cut hairstyle whistled. He stood there with a rascally posture, his arms folded to show off the intricate gang tattoos covering his forearms.He was known as Sir Bones, a thug under the well-known Red Moon gang. Their influence was spread across different parts of the Freedom Country.He had trained in martial arts for six years. One time, he singlehandedly defeated a group of five gangsters from a rival crew, earning him special recognition from the branch boss. Although not a top-tier figure, he had a bunch of followers—rebellious students who called him "big boss." He enjoyed being their center of attention.He spent most of his time as a bouncer at the Red Moon Bar in a different city. Occasionally, he was given jobs to travel to other cities to collect overdue loans or teach debtors a painful lesson, reminding them who still ruled the streets.This mission was to collect a

  • Chapter 177: Theresa's Predicament

    The boss and the other upper management staff all called her into the meeting room. They said that although they were pleased with her performance—that despite only having top student education and no real-world experience, she had been able to move their business from a low level to a medium one—they could not let her continue.Almost all the workers had reported her. With that, they replaced her with a new talent. Well, not new. One of the girls who slept with literally the whole upper management team, except the boss.She, who had been appraised as the top student of her business school, actually lost her job in less than a year.She was in agony and did not know what she had done wrong. Or maybe, as a smart woman, she already knew what she had done wrong. However, it was too late to fix everything.If that was all at the time, then maybe she wouldn't have broken down so much. Maybe she would have.But sadly, she also suffered in her relationship.The boyfriend who used to do every

    "It's good that you understand. Go home, take a bath, and rest. From tomorrow onward, it will be a very busy day." Albert paused before adding, "And also, it seems you have neglected your mission of building your relationship with Jasmine. That is not a good move.""Oh that? I haven't. We chat literally every day, and sometimes I even attend her online class if I have a chance. So no, I haven't neglected it." Lawrence immediately denied, and it was the truth.After some more advice from Albert, Lawrence left the pharmacy store. He decided to take a stroll around the area. It was currently 5 PM, showing how much time had passed during the scans and tests. It had been exhausting, and he wasn't in the mood to head back home immediately. It wasn't like he had a wife or a family waiting for him there. Heck, the penthouse didn't even feel like a home—it just felt like a place where he rested his head.Shaking those sad thoughts away, Lawrence kept walking along the sidewalk. He watched fami
