The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 701
Seeing that Charles still didn’t respond, the other men in the room couldn’t figure out his temperament.
One of the men asked, “Can we leave now, Mr. Newton? We don’t have any more money on us, and we didn’t touch this who—I mean, woman. In fact, she’s the one who beat us up so badly that we’re covered in injuries. We’ll have to see a doctor right away.”
Charles narrowed his eyes and spat coldly, “Scram.”
“Okay, okay.” The men immediately scurried away.
When they passed by Charles, he caught a glimpse of their injuries.
Some had fractured arms while some were covering their bleeding waist.
All six of those men had their butts kicked by Whitney, a woman, despite their advantage in numbers.
As such, Charles’ interest in Whitney was roused.
Slowly, he ambled into the messy room. The shattered glass pieces scattered all over the floor crumbled beneath his dark leather shoes.
Whitney, who was hiding beneath the table, trembled violently and held her breath upon hearing his steady footsteps.
In her mind, she prayed, Please don’t see me, please don’t see me, please don’t…
A second later, she felt warmth on her shoulders. She tilted her head and saw Charles taking off his coat and draping it over her shoulder to cover her tattered clothes.
He’s so gentle, so much so that he can charm any woman in minutes. Whitney felt even more ashamed and hung her head low, not daring to meet his gaze.
“You don’t have to hide. I know who you are,” uttered Charles in a deep, magnetic voice, which was pleasant to Whitney’s ears.
“Why did you come to this dangerous place? Are you in desperate need of money?” he asked.
