Kerry looked at the heavy makeup and lipstick on her face and said, "I'm going to get a towel and wipe
your face." he got up and was about to leave when she caught the corner of his shirt and her face
showed fear.
Kerry was sad and comforted her. "I'm not leaving. I'm going to get you a towel."
Venus still wouldn't let him go, and Kerry had no choice but to carry her off the bed and say, "I'll take
you with me then."
Kerry carried her straight out of the house, ignoring the people of Wang family. He found a towel and
water and wiped her face clean.
Seeing that Venus was much calmer, Kerry hugged her and then took her to settle the score with the
Wang Li.
"Where is that Wang Li? Hasn't he come yet?" Kerry asked coldly.
Gawa’s father face showed embarrassment, "His phone is off. I can't reach him."
Kerry frowned, "I guess he took the money and ran away."
The couple looked at each other. As much as they hated to admit that Venus knew him, they had
figured out from her behavior that she knew him.
Gawa’s mother stepped forward and said, "I don't care what relationship you have with her. Since my
family paid for her, she is my daughter-in-law. She can't go anywhere!"
"I must take her away. You can’t stop me." Kerry said coldly, and then he looked at Gawa, his eyes dark
in the extreme, "As for you, I don't want to bother with a fool."
Since Wang Li was nowhere to be found, Kerry was ready to leave. The big red letters plastered all
over the place made him annoyed.
"You stop," Gawa’s mother stood in front of them, "You can't leave. Either you keep her, or you give us
sixty thousand."
Kerry laughed. "She's my wife. Why should I give you money?"
"Who can prove that she is your wife?" Gawa’s mother questioned.
"I don't need to prove this to you." Kerry walked toward the door. But Gawa’s mother grabbed Venus by
the arm and shouted loudly, "Someone is killing people."
When Gawa's father heard this, he immediately shouted for help, "Help, help, somebody is killing
people."
It was just before nine o'clock. Many of the villagers were watching TV. As soon as they heard the
shouting they ran over.
Venus heard the noisy footsteps and hid in Kerry’s arms in shock.
"Don't be afraid, I will protect you." Kerry whispered in her ear.
"What's going on?" The neighbor who came running asked nervously. "Who killed someone?"
Gawa's mother saw that the townspeople were coming, pointed at Kerry and said, “He tries to take my
daughter-in-law away. He also injured my son. My son’s hand was broken and one of his front teeth
was knocked out."
The townspeople looked over, and sure enough, Gawa was hiding behind his father, his face bruised
and swollen, his one hand hanging down.
An older man stood out from the crowd and asked Kerry seriously, "Who are you? Why take her
away?"
Kerry looked around the crowd with a casual glance. He said loudly, "She's my wife. Of course I'm
going to take her away."
The words came as a shock to everyone.
“What proof do you have that she is your wife?" Gawa's mother asked aloud.
"You say she is your wife, what proof do you have?" other people aslso asked
Kerry stared at them who asked the question with cold eyes. They did not dare to meet Kerry’s eyes.
"You want proof?" Kerry pulled out his cell phone and flipped out a wedding photo, "Take a good look at
this picture."
A few villagers came up to take a closer look. They saw Venus in a wedding dress in the picture.
The Wang couple was nervous. Gawa's father spoke up uddenly, "Even if she's your wife, what about
our loss? We're paying 60,000 for her."
Kerry said coldly, "It's simple. You give the money to whoever you want and you ask for it. It's got
nothing to do with me."
"How can it have nothing to do with you?" Gawa's mother said. "Now Wang ran away. I suspected you
were in cahoots with him to cheat us out of money."
"Let me remind you that buying and selling human beings is a criminal offense. If you don't want to go
to jail, get out of my way." said Kerry.
"No, I won't let you go unless you step over me," Gawa's mom said.
Kerry didn't want to waste time with her. He pulled out his cell phone to call the police, "Hello, The
police station? You guys hurry up and get over here. If you’re later, someone will die."
"Where are you?" The police responder was busy asking.
Kerry bowed his head and asked the elder who had just been there, "What is this place?"
The elder gave an address and Kerry gave it to the policeman. "You have to be quick or a lot of people
will die here."
After hanging up the phone, Kerry smirked and looked at Gawa's mom, "When the police get here,
everything will be clear."
Gawa's mom was furious. She just wanted her money back and didn't want the police to know about it.
Most of the dozen or so villagers were watching them for fun. Some of them were already jealous that
Gawa had married such a beautiful woman. Now that something bad had happened, they were just
happy to see it.
"You better let them go. Look at her looks and demeanor; she is not an ordinary person.” A man said to
Gawa's mother.
Gawa's mother was still reluctant to part with the sixty thousand yuan, and said with a sad face, "If I let
them go, what about my money?"
A few minutes later, a siren sounded in the village. Soon, flashing red and blue lights illuminated the
yard. Thinking it was a murder case, four police officers came to the house.
When they saw so many people standing in the courtyard, they thought something had really
happened.
"Who reported the case?" The police asked with a serious face.
"Me." Kerry said.
"Didn't you just say that someone had been killed?" the police asked.
.
Kerry smiled, "If you didn't come, a lot of people would really die. I wouldn't have to hurt them if you
came."
The police gave him a blank stare, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Kerry pointed to the woman in his arms and said, "I'm Kerry, and this is my wife Venus. She was
kidnapped here some time ago and sold to the family. Now I'm going to take her away, but this family
won't let us go."
An older policeman looked at Venus. Then the policeman turned to Mr. and Mrs. Gawa and asked with
a blank expression on his forehead, "Did you buy this girl?"
Gawa's mother immediately retorted, "No, we didn't know that the girl was kidnapped. Wang Li said she
was his cousin. We thought he was telling the truth, so we gave him a bride price of 60,000 yuan. We
didn't know anything.”
"Wang Li?" The police recalled, "Is that Wang Li from the next village, who hangs around all day?"
"Yes, that's him."
"You call him and tell him to come," The cop said.
"I just called him, but his phone was off." Gawa's father said.
The middle-aged policeman said to his colleagues who came with him, "You two go to Wang's house.
Bring him over if he's at home."
"Yes."
The policeman turned to Gawa's mother, "You buy women, and this is a violation of law. If you are
sentenced, you will do jail time."
Gawa's mother's legs weakened at the word jail, "Sir, we didn't know she was kidnapped. If I knew, I
would never have bought her."
