It was obvious that they were here for revenge.

�Her?� Otto Gold questioned.

The well-built man was an infamous gangster who ran the area. He never expected that the person who sent his right-hand man into the ICU would be a weak little woman.

�Yeah, I did that.� Renee put down her glass and glared at the men surrounding her. �You�re blocking my view. Keep standing there and I�ll make sure you�ll suffer a worse fate than that pervert!�

�Hoho, you talk big, little lady!� Otto scowled as he grabbed Renee by the collar. �Let me show you the rules around these parts then!�

�Oh? Really now?� Renee raised an eyebrow, thanking the gods for being so generous as to hand her a punching bag after a long, stressful day.

Cracking her knuckles loudly, the woman was ready to rumble.

Suddenly, all she heard were Otto�s screams, as he was sent flying back. A tall figure stood before her, as if he were a large wall, shielding her from danger.

�Which one of you tried attacking her? Come forth, or else.� Stefan spoke, his voice cold as ice.

Renee was completely dumbfounded as she stared at the man�s dashing figure from behind.

She wondered. �Out of all the places, why is here, and at this moment? Was he stalking me?�

The gangsters were stunned by Stefan�s intimidating aura. All of them got into their fighting stance and yelled nervously. �Who� Who are you?! Stay out of this if you value your life!�

�It doesn�t matter who I am. The only thing that matters is that you pay since you�ve decided to go against someone you shouldn�t have.� Stefan�s voice was stern, and that was enough to strike fear into their hearts.

�Another brat with a death wish!� Otto crawled back up to his feet, gritting his teeth and rubbing his backside gently to ease the pain.

�Do you know who I am? Why don�t you ask around the area? You two must be dying for a beating, huh?!�

�What are you guys standing there for? Get them!� yelled Otto.

The ten gangsters immediately charged at Stefan and Renee with their metal bats.

The people in the vicinity fled out of fear for their lives.

Stefan was alarmed but he continued shielding Renee with his body. As he tugged on his tie, he turned slightly to comfort Renee. �Don�t be scared. Just close your eyes for now, I�ll be done with them soon.�

While speaking, he kicked over one of the thugs who tried ambushing them from the side. JrNovels.com
