CHAPTER 69: CHAPTER 69: I WILL PROTECT YOU

"Master Jacobs? Are you talking about Nathan Jacobs?"

July Quinn snapped back to reality and kicked the burly man again.

Kyle Keaton remained silent, his deep black eyes unreadable.

Is it Nathan Jacobs?

Not someone from Esteria?

"Yes, it’s Master Jacobs, Nathan Jacobs. He told us to bleed Assistant Keaton out."

The burly man, afraid July Quinn would kick him again, kept reassuring her, "Everything I said is true, I’m not lying. Have mercy, hero lady..."

July Quinn lowered her eyes in thought for a moment, then took out her phone to call the police.

"Hello, is this the police? I’ve come across some thugs who almost assaulted me, help."

Hearing the woman’s soft sobs, a classic victim portrayal, several burly men silently twitched their mouths.

Compared to her, they seemed more like the victims now, didn’t they?

Each one of them, their faces resembled a car crash scene.

Had any of them dared to make a sound?

The answer is...

They didn’t dare.

If you see them try to move, July Quinn would cast a cold glance over.

The look in her eyes seemed to say, if you dare to run or speak out, I’ll turn you into mincemeat.

Under such an intimidating gaze, how could they dare make a peep?

Thus, they could only silently watch as the fierce flower disguised herself as a harmless innocent flower, slandering them to her heart’s content.

"My address here is..."

After briefly explaining the situation, July Quinn also reported the location as the Jacobs Tower underground parking lot.

The police response was swift, arriving in less than ten minutes.

But to their surprise, the thugs were tearfully grateful to see them, saying they’d been eagerly awaiting their arrival, each rushing to board the police car.

The police were bewildered.

At this moment, July Quinn handed her phone to the leading officer.

"Officer, this is a video I accidentally recorded earlier. It should serve as evidence, right?"

Saying this, July Quinn pressed the play button.

"Little girl, don’t meddle. Leave quickly, or we’ll beat you too."

"No, she has already meddled. Look how pretty she is, with a great figure too. After we deal with her, we’ll come for you. But don’t worry, we won’t beat you, at most a few of us will entertain you."

"That’s a good idea, I’ll go first later..."

Seeing the sleazy faces on video approaching the camera, the police officers were extremely outraged.

"Of course, it can."

Following this, with police assistance, July Quinn copied the video and made a brief statement, watching as the group of burly men was taken away by the police.

As July Quinn watched the police car leave, a dry male voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Skillful and flawless. You’ve handled things like this often before?"

July Quinn turned back to find Kyle Keaton staring coldly at her.

Kyle Keaton was puzzled earlier when July Quinn rushed to stop those burly men, thinking why she would waste her breath when she clearly had the capability.

The answer was the video she just presented to the police.

He couldn’t help but admit that this woman wasn’t only clever but had a good reaction ability too.

"Not often."

Pretty much where she had been before, many people were afraid of her and didn’t dare to provoke her again.

Otherwise, if she had to do such things every day, where would she find the time to learn new knowledge?

After she spoke, July Quinn opened the door of a silver-grey limited edition Maserati and sat in the passenger seat.

Just as she was about to close the door, Kyle Keaton suddenly blocked her.

"Not going home, not on my way. You’re getting out!"

July Quinn: "..."

Big jerk!

July Quinn remained still, "Where are you going? I’ll protect you."

"You protecting me?" Kyle Keaton sneered, as if he heard the biggest joke.

Unexpectedly, July Quinn looked at him with an earnest expression he had never seen before.

"Nathan Jacobs targeting you is all because of me. So I have a responsibility to protect you."

She was clearly not wearing makeup, yet she was more beautiful than any refined high-society lady he had seen.

Especially when she sincerely said she wanted to protect him...

His heart seemed electrified for a moment.

Perhaps it was that rushing feeling in his heart that made Kyle Keaton suddenly decide not to kick her out of the car.

Even though he understood that Nathan Jacobs was out to get him not only because of her, July Quinn, but also because he kicked Nathan Jacobs off a project.
