Bye, My Ex-husband

"You're hurt! Let me help you get patched up."

Janessa approached the man to take him away from the dark alley.What she had just done right now was risky.

If those men found out that she played a trick on them, she would've been in danger.All of a sudden, the men returned to the spot where the young man was crumpled on the floor.

Janessa and the young man were suddenly surrounded in the dark alley by these men.

"You bitch! What do you think you're doing here? You only need to mind your own business!" Peter whipped out a knife and stared at Janessa and the young man with eyes full of malice.

Anyone who saw the fierce look on his face would be scared.

The young man shoved Janessa behind him and said, "Peter, I'm the one who owes you money.You don't need to make an innocent person suffer because of my mistakes."

Janessa looked over at the young man who now looked wise beyond his years and felt like a younger brother was coming to her aid.

She always wanted to have a younger brother, and now this man filled the longing in her heart for one.

If she had a brother by her side while she competed with Aydin for the family properties, maybe they wouldn't have bullied her the way they did.

Peter clutched the man’s hair with the hand that held his knife and threatened, "Innocent person? What innocent person would come to save you? Do you think I'm a fool, Eric? Everyone, beat him!"

Peter's men surrounded Eric as they kicked and punched him.

When they attempted to hit Janessa, Eric pushed them away and protected Janessa with his body.No matter how hard they beat him, Eric didn't whimper or cry out.As Peter looked at Eric and Janessa, Peter became angrier.

If his men didn't warn him that things seemed a bit fishy, they would have completely fallen into this woman's trap. Sure enough, when they returned to the scene, they didn't see any police around the area.

"Stop! Do you have any last words, you brat?"

Peter said as he squatted in front of Eric and Janessa.Eric's body was covered with cuts and bruises, and Janessa's face had been dirtied by his blood.

"I promise to pay you back, Peter.Please let her go.She had nothing to do with this.She knows nothing."

"How do you plan on paying me back? Do you have money on you right now? Maybe I should cut off an arm of yours as interest payment."

Eric played numerous instruments for a living, and he couldn't lose an arm due to his debt.
