His Precious Love

One of the foreigners instantly threw him a contemptuous glance. “It’s none of your d*mn business! Be smart and stay in your lane.”

Instead of fighting fire with fire, Jacob tamped down his anger and took out all the cash he had in his wallet.

“I know you guys are just looking for a good time!” he said as he handed over a thick wad of Anglandurn currency notes. “The money I have here is enough for you to party all week, and it’d be yours if you give me the woman. That’s not a bad trade, is it?”

Upon grabbing the money and realizing how much there was, the foreigner quickly shot a look at his friend, prompting the latter to push the woman into Jacob’s arms.

Jacob hastily caught her, only to be taken aback when he found out how cold to the touch her skin was.

When he looked back up again, the foreigners had already sped away in their car.

“What a bunch of sc*mbags! They won’t even let a poor, helpless woman off!” Jacob scolded.

That’s also why I love conducting business overseas. I feel no guilt in making money off these dregs of society!

As soon as his driver arrived, Jacob carried the woman into the car and gave the order to go to the hospital.

Having seen how grubby and disheveled the woman was, he had to admit he was disgusted.

Despite that, he covered her with his coat out of pity and decided to leave after ensuring she was given the necessary medical attention.

“Thank goodness I got a tidy sum from a successful contract negotiation. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered to rescue her!” Jacob muttered to himself. “There’s just no way I can recoup this loss.”

After arriving at the hospital’s emergency department, one of the doctors immediately gave the woman a checkup. Upon peeling away the latter’s clothes, however, everyone was stunned to see the terrifying clusters of welts and bruises all over her body.

Naturally, the doctor’s first instinct was to turn and glance at Jacob.

“It wasn’t me!” Jacob hurriedly explained in Anglandurn as he put his hands up. “I saw her getting bullied and merely helped her out. Please don’t get the wrong idea. I’m not an abuser!”
