“Enough. You’re trying to rob a foreigner in broad daylight? Don’t embarrass our people.” Catherine
pushed Matthew’s hand away and walked over slowly, snatching the wooden planks in the ruffians ‘
hands and kicking them far away.
Those sharp movements made Matthew stunned.
She was already beautiful and tall, but when she fought, she exuded a heroic aura. Even though she
was fighting, the scene looked more like it was an art form to be appreciated.
With Matthew’s sharp eyes, it was easy for him to tell that her skills were just fancy and impractical.
What made him even more surprised was that this woman actually broke the arms of those ruffians.
Her methods were clean and sharp.
“People like you will continue to commit robbery after you’re caught and locked up for a day. It’s better
to just break your arms and let you recover for a few months. Let’s see how you’ll continue to rob
others. Scram! ”
Catherine’s tone was light, but the ruffians were terrified when they looked at her beautiful face and
immediately got up before running away.
“Thank you. ” Matthew walked up to her. He had black hair, and a shrewd look flashed in his blue eyes.
“Heroine, thank you for saving me.
Otherwise, I’d definitely have been robbed.” Heroine…?
Catherine almost choked on her own saliva. “Kid, did you just transmigrate over?”
Matthew was stunned. It was the first time someone called him that. If they were in Neah Bay, people
would have turned to look at Catherine in horror.
After all, she must be the first person to dare to call the prince of the Costner family ‘kid’.
“What did you call me?” he spoke a little incredulously. His accent made his voice sound even more
mellow and charming.
“You look like you’re only 20.” Catherine sized him up.
“Yes, I’m 21 this year.” Matthew looked at her youthful face and was astonished. “You’re older than
me?”
“I’m a few years older than you, so you’re a kid to me.”
Catherine glanced at the plastic bag in his hand that was carrying all the wreaths. The person who
bought all the wreaths must be him. It was clear at a glance that the watch on his hand and the
pendant hanging from his neck were valuable, so it was no wonder that he was targeted by others. He
looked like a rich fool who just came back from abroad. “This is an old street where all sorts of
hooligans hang around. You shouldn’t linger
around these places while dressed like that. Hurry up and go back.” She said and left.
Since she could not buy wreaths, she would just offer the flowers she got.
“Heroine, pray tell thy name?” Matthew took large strides to catch up to her.
Catherine stumbled and almost fell. She was between laughter and tears. “Pray tell thy name? Are you
living in the Elizabethan era?”
“Ahem. I like reading books written in that era. That’s how people used to talk, ” Matthew explained in
embarrassment, “I thought… I just came to the country yesterday, so I don’t know much about the
culture here.”
“You already said that it was ancient times. This is the modern era. Just talk according to how you
would in your country, ” Catherine explained in amusement.
“Oh.” Matthew nodded. “In that case, beautiful lady, may I ask for your name?
