Stealing Your Heart

Stealing Your Heart Chapter 287

Acting rashly could send one tumbling down into the abyss.

The woman was acting as if she was the best in the world just because she wore something that cost a thousand.

She had gotten herself into some serious trouble by that one action.

Zong Jinghao made no move to change his orders.

The woman was terrified. How was she going to live without her hand?

No, I can’t lose my hand!

Even so, she could not fight against the people standing before her.

Fear might have flipped a switch in her, and she broke free of her restraints all of a sudden, all before the bodyguards could react.

She barreled herself towards Lin Xinyan.

Zong Jinghao thought that she was going to hurt Lin Xinyan, and he kicked her away. The woman skidded sideways and crashed into a tree in the garden nearby, making it shake on impact.

Zong Jinghao’s eyes were red with anger. “What were y’all doing? You can’t even hold a woman down!”

The woman pressed a hand to her chest and coughed a few times. “I was not going to hurt her,” she rasped.

She looked up at Lin Xinyan. “I just thought that I could ask you for some mercy, since you’re a woman like me.”

Lin Xinyan’s face remained cold, not because she was heartless, but rather because the woman’s actions were beyond her threshold.

As a mother, she felt guilty for not being able to protect her child from harm, yet she couldn’t forgive the perpetrator so easily.

She was not a saint but an ordinary human and a mother.

“My daughter is only five, and I have never even scolded her, let alone hit her. Who gave you the right to hit her?” Lin Xinyan asked, her eyes reddened. “You probably don’t deserve to lose your hand because of this, but you have to be punished.”

The woman’s jaw dropped, and she was at a loss for words.

Lin Xinyan hugged Lin Ruixi close to shield her from the violent scene that was about to take place. “I’ll get on the car first,” she said.

Zong Jinghao nodded.
