His Precious Love

Chapter 227 I Will Marry A Teacher

Still, Theodore had to consider the Xavier family’s and the Goath family’s sensibilities.

With hurried steps, he left the café with Stephanie in his arms. When he saw Curtis, who was waiting by the road, he said, “I’m sending her to the hospital. Rayna is still inside.”

The latter’s eyes clouded over.

The two men were on their way to deal with some affairs. Unexpectedly, Theodore drove to the café after checking his phone.

As Curtis got out of the car, he shot a dark look at Stephanie. “Don’t f*cking play the victim. Not even Theodore can protect you if I find out she’s injured.”

Frightened by his words, Stephanie shuddered in fear and cowered in Theodore’s arms.

Rayna, who was left behind in the café, was in a tight spot from being surrounded by a crowd. They were all staring at her intently as if they were heroes of justice about to solve a crime.

After sweeping her gaze across them, she warned, “Don’t choose sides when you don’t even know what actually happened. I’m going to call the police if you continue to block my way.”

One of the people in the crowd reprimanded, “We saw it with our own eyes! Not only did you steal that girl’s boyfriend, but you also splashed sulfuric acid on her!”

“Yeah! You’d be doing exactly what we want by calling the police!”

Rayna tried to force herself through the crowd, but a woman shoved her backward while chiding, “My husband was seduced by a mistress! I abhor mistresses the most! Instead of living an honest life, they choose to destroy other people’s families! People like you should be stripped naked before everyone else! It ought to teach you not to seduce other men!”

As the woman yelled, she reached out to tug off Rayna’s clothes.

With her in the lead, the others swarmed forward to do the same. Seven or eight pairs of hands tugged on her hair and clothes. Rayna put up a resistance to their attacks with all her might while defending herself using her hands.

The woman who scolded Rayna was especially ferocious, intent on stripping the latter naked in public. The next second, the woman shrieked as someone grabbed her hair and kicked her in the stomach.

The other women who were attacking Rayna collapsed to the ground after being either tugged on their hair or kicked to the side.

Curtis wrapped Rayna tightly in his coat and held her in his arms. His gaze on the crowd was callous, the overwhelming sense of oppression leaving them feeling suffocated.
