The two men beside the man with the red rose tattoo were shocked beyond words, seeing their brother lying on the ground, unable to lift his head.

Feeling angry about the situation, the two gangsters looked at Leo, who was one meter away from them. He looked calm, with a sinister smile, looking at them.

"You bastard, I will kill you!!" They both shouted. When they tried to attack Leo, they saw him moving so fast that their eyes couldn’t catch up. It shocked them.

Leo sent a powerful kick toward his target’s knee with his right foot. Another loud crack sounded, like the sound of bones being broken, followed by a roar of pain.

"AARGH!!" The man was now slumped on the ground, unable to move his legs.

Thest person panicked; he took out his dagger and stabbed Leo in the back when Leo was busy kicking his friends.

However, before the man’s sharp dagger touched Leo’s skin, Leo turned back as if he knew the danger from behind. He swatted the man’s hand away with a swift movement, hard enough to send the dagger flying a few meters from them.

Leo threw a quick and forceful punch at the man’s face. His groan filled the air as he stumbled back several steps. He felt an intense pain on his face, and his hands instinctively went to the spot where Leo’s fist had hit him.

"Y-You bastard... How dare—" The man’s voice trailed off when he felt a metallic taste in his mouth, like the taste of fresh blood. "Cough…" he spat out blood and how shocked he was when three of his teeth fell to the ground.

The man’s suffering was not over when Leo’s powerful kicknded on his knee. The sound of his knee cracking made the man fall to the ground while howling in pain, once again disturbing the silence of the ce.

Three pairs of eyes stared at Leo in horror. They never expected that this pale-faced man was a martial artist. With his fast and robust movements, he could defeat them all in a pretty short time.

Their minds were now filled with countless questions: Who is he? Why is he so strong? Is this man Arabe Donovan’s head of the bodyguard squad?

...

It wasn’t just the three gangsters who were shocked to see Leo, but Be, too. She was surprised to learn that Leo actually knew how to fight. Not only did he know the moves, but he also had the power.

’Since when did he know how to fight?’ Be wondered, narrowing her eyes at Leo’s back, standing a few meters before her. She saw him trying to continue torturing three miserable gangsters.

However, Be’s heart jolted when she heard Leo shout.

"Are you okay, Boss?" Leo asked without looking at her, his eyes still fixed on the three pathetic men lying on the ground in a miserable condition.

"I’m fine..." Be answered hurriedly.

"Do you want to know who sent them?"

"Yes, please." Be could already guess who had sent these people but wanted to ensure her guess was correct.

"Alright, I will ask them quickly," Leo said while approaching the man with a red rose tattoo on his neck.

Be remained where she was. She saw Leo torturing them to tell them who had sent them.

However, a few minutester, Leo tortured them, but none of them spilled anything. This confused Be why these people covered their employer’s identity like that. They would rather be tortured than talk.

’It must be Jessica Sinir, right? Only that woman could make these gangsters shut their mouths tightly rather than mention her name,’ Be started to believe with her own guess.

Leo was growing impatient with the lowly gangster’s silence. He walked over to pick up a dagger not far from them and approached the men close to him. The man who had lost three teeth looked at Leo in horror as if he saw him as a grim reaper.

Seeing the man’s frightening expression caused Leo to chuckle inwardly.

"Okay, this is yourst chance. If you don’t reveal who sent you, I will sh your little brother down there…" Leo said as his eyes looked at the thing between his legs. He felt amused when he saw the man covering his groin with his hand and his face turning white as paper.

"Br-Brother, please... Please...stop... You can hit me as much as you want, but don’t cut my assets..." he said in a trembling voice.

"So, what are you waiting for? Speak now! You just need to say a name, and I’ll leave you—" Leo’s voice suddenly stopped when a cold voice sounded behind.

"Leave him alone, or I will blow her head!"

Leo immediately turned his head and was shocked to see four men with auras simr to those of the three men he had hit standing behind Be.

What shocked Leo even more and made his body immediately freeze was that one of the men stood one meter behind Be. He pointed a gun at the back of her head. While three other men were standing not far from the gunman, they were all holding metal baseball bats firmly.

Leo’s hand tightened around the dagger. He turned his gaze towards Be to assess her condition. He could see her face stiffen and be slightly pale, but the calmness in her eyes surprised him. However, that calm onlysted a few seconds before it turned into a worried and frightened look.

’What to do?’ Leo tried to find a way to make them leave this ce without anyone getting hurt, especially Be.

He wouldn’t be afraid if these men only had daggers or baseball bats. But a gun? He couldn’t take it lightly. They might die if he made a wrong move.

’Damn it!! Who the hell sent these people to capture Be? Laura Kiels?? It must be her, right!?’

Leo smiled faintly at Be, trying to give her a sign to remain calm.
