Chapter: 830

Renee initially had no intention to get involved, but when she heard that this woman was a fellow mother who was bringing up her child alone, she was suddenly moved by compassion. She helped the lady up to her feet and asked,

�What happened to you? Explain it to me slowly.�

�I� I came to the antique market to sell something. But these people here are barbarians with no regard for the law. When they saw a weak, helpless woman like me, they immediately tried to rob me��

As she got to this point, held the bag in her arms even more tightly, before adding, �What I have here is a family heirloom. If my son wasn�t ill and didn�t require a lot of money for treatment, I would never even think of selling this, not even to save my own skin! But those thugs had the audacity to rob it from me. They even threatened me with knives! They�re horrible people, Miss! Please, you must help me!�

Renee looked her up and down and her eyes gleamed with determination. She calmly asserted, �Calm down. Although I know that Water Dock is a lawless land, since you chose to ask me for help, then I�ll deal with this fair and square. I won�t disappoint you.�

The woman was instantly relieved, so much so that her tears even dried up. She hurriedly replied, �Thank you! Thank you very much, Miss!�

Then, about ten big burly men swarmed in their direction. They were all wearing black suits and each was holding a huge club. They seemed to be searching through the crowded antique market for someone.

�Where is she?! That b*tch is slippery like an eel! How did she vanish so quickly like that?!�

�Leave no stone unturned, boys! Once you find her, make sure she pays with blood!�

Seeing this, the woman instantly took cover behind Renee, quivering in fear.

�Don�t be afraid,� Renee assured her, tilting her head towards the woman. �I told you that I�ll help you. They won�t dare to do anything with me here!�

In no time at all, those men noticed Renee. They rushed up towards her with bloodthirsty eyes and yelled, �If you don�t want to die then don�t butt into this! Get out of the way!�

Without a change in her expression or budging for an inch, Renee opposed them. �You think I�ll move just because you say so? Who the hell do you think you are?!�

Her fierce reaction not only stunned the men in black suits. Even the sellers and onlookers around her were astounded.

A tall man in a black suit who stood in front of the others viciously roared back,

�Is this your first time in the Water Dock? Don�t you know who you�re talking to?!�

�Of course I don�t! Why the hell would I ask you if I knew?!�

�Since you�re so clueless, then allow me to educate you. We are Carmine Pawnshop�s men. Since you�re here in Water Dock, I�m guessing you can�t be such an idiot that you�ve never even heard of Carmine Pawnshop, right? So, are you going to get out of the way now?�

�Ah� so you guys work for Carmine Pawnshop, huh?�

Renee pursed her lips and nonchalantly added, �But how could such a reputable pawnshop act like thugs and gangsters? How could they resort to murder over such a small matter? You sent out a whole gang of burly men just to look for one woman? Is this the kind of man that the Carmine Pawnshop�s boss really is?� JrNovels.com
