“I don’t care who you are. I will beat up whoever touches my wife…” Jared growled, intending to charge forward and land two kicks on Frederick but was stopped by Josephine.

Holding his arm, she said, “Calm down. He didn’t manage to touch me!”

Nevertheless, she was touched by his words and found herself falling for him further.
