“I have tied him outside.” Ethan’s brows furrowed; anger blazed in his eyes. He looked at Janet and
frowned. “How did you get involved with a disgusting man like him?”
“What’s wrong with you? You sound like I seduced him on purpose.” Janet’s eyes widened at his
remark. She struggled to get away from him. “Let go of me!”
Ethan always spoke this way to his subordinates. He found it difficult to switch between modes. Janet
was a delicate and sensitive woman and a bit shaken up after what happened, so he held her tightly in
his arms. “I’m sorry I said the wrong thing. Scold me or beat me if you want, but please don’t be mad at
me.”
He cupped Janet’s cheeks and kissed her.
“Ethan… Stop it. Get rid of this man first!” Janet grunted as she continued to wipe the lingering trails of
his kisses. But the man ignored her and peppered kisses all over her face.
She couldn’t get rid of Ethan’s vice-like grip, so she asked him to take her to the living room. Ethan
smiled and stood up.
Janet held his arm and followed him to the living room. Her eyes widened when she saw the man was
tied to the chair. Ethan had knocked him unconscious; his face was covered in bruises.
“Should we call the police now? What do we do?” Janet asked in a tremulous voice as the mere sight
of the man frightened her.
Ethan glared at the man, and his jaw tensed with anger. He looked like a beast guarding his territory.
Anyone who even thought of laying a finger on his woman would end this way.
“No. I have a better idea.”
Ethan picked up his phone and sent a message to someone.
“What have you planned to do?” Janet stood on tiptoe to check the message on his phone. But Ethan
was too tall, so she couldn’t catch a glimpse of his phone screen.
After sending the message, he put his phone into his pocket.
“Honey, leave it to me. I’ll ask someone to deal with him.” Ethan gently stroked her hair and planted a
soft kiss on her cheek.
Janet didn’t notice the coldness in his eyes.
“Don’t go too far,” she mumbled.
Janet didn’t know what Ethan had planned to do. But she was sure the man would be safer with the
police than facing Ethan’s wrath.
However, the man deserved it. Janet didn’t know what would have happened to her if Ethan didn’t
arrive on time. The evil man deserved severe punishment for barging into her house and attempting to
rape her.
Janet couldn’t shake off the image of the man pouncing on her. It frightened her witless. She trusted
Ethan and didn’t want to show any mercy to the animalistic monster.
About ten minutes later, a few burly men arrived and dragged the assaulter away.
Janet kept her head down and didn’t say a word. Ethan knew that she always dropped her gaze to the
floor to hide her emotions.
“Why do you keep staring at the floor? Do you see anything precious lying there?”
Ethan’s face softened. He closed the door and pulled Janet into a tight embrace.
“Look, you have to be cautious at all times. Danger might find you even if you’re at home. I called you
so many times last night, but you didn’t answer any of them. Do you know how worried I was?”
