Tom didn’t expect Ivor and Jim would be this tough once they teamed up. He gulped heavily and took a step back instinctively. Shane’s face fell. His eyes were filled with disdain when he looked at Tom. “What a weasel!”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Tom’s face at that. He hung his head and didn’t make a peep.
Shane hated the fact that Tom couldn’t do better. Tearing his gaze away, he looked at the bodyguards behind him coldly.
“Listen to me! Anyone who seizes them will be rewarded with 10 million dollars! Hurry up and get a move on!”
‘The bodyguards aren’t giving their all to the fight. I’ve got no choice but to give them some additional incentive.’ The moment all of them heard that there were 10 million dollars to be had, they got excited in a matter of a second.
“Charge!”
Throwing money at the issue worked for Shane. His bodyguards were giving all they’ve got into the fight now.
Ivor and Jim formed a perimeter around Bonnie and kept her in the center of it, protecting her from every assailant.
Realizing that there were more bodyguards around them, she couldn’t help but frown. “Stop trying to protect me. Let me give you a hand. I can lighten your load if I join in the fight. I’ll just avoid using my hands.”
Jim parted his lips. He was about to say something when he heard Ivor’s voice.
“That won’t be necessary. You’re injured. So, just concentrate on resting. Don’t concern yourself with everything else.”
“That’s right. Get some rest. I mean it when I tell you to leave the fight to us. We’re going to keep you safe, and that’s that.” Jim agreed with Ivor wholeheartedly.
She looked helpless and said, “Alright. Okay. I’ll do as you guys say.”
‘I just can’t argue with both of them. They’re treating me as if I’m some helpless damsel. When have I been that weak?’
After that, Ivor and Jim dove back into the fight.
She’d alert them from time to time, trying to keep them from getting hurt.
Shane saw what was happening and decided he couldn’t let things run their course. So, he waved at the bodyguards next to him.
“Over here.”
A bodyguard walked over to him and asked, “Your orders, Mr. Shane?”
He gave him a look, hinting at him to look at where Bonnie was. Then, he lowered his voice and whispered, “Capture Bonnie and use her against them.”
“Roger.” The bodyguard responded and snuck from the back to try to seize her.
Shane curled his lips, revealing a wicked grin.
‘Don’t blame me for doing this. After all, they’re the ones who overestimated themselves and messed up someone they shouldn’t have!’
Before long, that particular bodyguard snuck to a spot behind Bonnie. He arched his body and waited for an opportunity to strike. She sensed it and rubbed her feet on the ground gently, preparing herself to strike back at him.
On the other hand, the bodyguard didn’t realize that. His face was filled with menace as he pulled out a knife and darted after her.
She saw him out of the corner of her eyes. Her lips curled and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
‘Heh. What a fool. I can’t believe this bodyguard’s trying to sneak up on me. Oh, he’s going to know the meaning of pain soon.’
She was in the middle of her
thoughts when the bodyguard
closed the distance. She knew what
he was going to do. So, she took a step back before giving him a roundhouse kick, sending him flying.
However, this bodyguard was
obviously much stronger than the et
others. He merely took a couple of steps back before he regained his footing and charged at her again.
