Chapter 475

Jason shot up like a bomb with a lit fuse, abruptly springing into action!

Just as he was about to lunge forward. Nydia clutched his hand tightly, her knuckles turning white, “Don’t. Jason, please.”

After all, Byron was the privileged son of the Chambers clan, and she was under the protective wing of the Ashbourne family, but what

about Jason?

She couldn’t let Jason get in deeper water, for her sake.

Before Jason could make a move, Evadne stepped in with the speed of a striker, kicking straight to Byron’s face like she was going for

a goal!

“Ugh-

The debutante had dislodged both of Byron’s two front teeth, leaving him with a bloody mouth and two dark, comical holes where his teeth had been.

Thaddeus inwardly gasped, his Adam’s apple bobbing with silent awe.

His almond eyes narrowed slightly, and his lips curled upward.

So full of life, so candid. He was hopelessly in love.

“Yikes. Your sister’s terrifying, man. She resorts to violence at the drop of a hat, does she? With that temper, she’d be running the show in any gang.

Chasel’s skin prickled with goosebumps from Evadne’s fierce aura, his body leaning for support against Cassius’s side. “Hey, as her brother–in–law, shouldn’t you have some sympathy for a fellow brother–in–law? On their wedding day, you should consider giving Mr. Thaddeus a generous life insurance policy. That’d be thoughtful and considerate.”

“Dr. Bright, got too much time on your hands? Enjoy sticking your nose into other people’s business? Cassius’s tone was laced with sarcasm, his imposing presence unwavering.

“Evadne. Go ahead and seethe rage impotently.”

Byron, with his bloody mouth, his words whistling through the gaps, “You’ve got no proof, you can’t do anything to me. But for what you and Thaddeus did to me, I’ll see you rot in jail! Your reputation will be destroyed!”

“is that what you think? You think I’m scared? You think L, Evadne, am faint–hearted?”

The young lady stood defiantly, her lips curled in scorn, her knuckles cracking as she clenched her fists, “Keep barking, and see if I don’t remove the rest of your teeth.”

Byron, finding his bravado met with threat, promptly shut his mouth,

“You’ve already done so much for me.”

Nydia, weak and teary–eyed, shook her head as she leaned into Jason’s embrace, “Let’s just let it go. It’s enough.”

She might be timid, but what terrified her most was the thought of her dear family dragged into trouble because of her.
