Chapter 2 This woman Is Mine

Carrying his wine, Zack Murray sat next to Ned and seemed surprised, "Ned, pigs fly. Why do you also take girls from the bars? Do you really fancy such girls?"

Embarrassed by his words, Nancy bit her lip.

"Are you a grown-up?"

Ned made no reply but looked at Nancy and asked.

The booth was all quiet at the moment. After all, when the big shot from the Green family spoke, no one dared to make a noise. The booth waiter was even sensible enough to turn off the ear-shattering music.

The surroundings became so quiet that Nancy could hear her rapid breathing.

"I..."

Nancy gripped the hem of her skirt, got sweat in her palms, and faltered.

She was afraid that he would break the deal for her young age.

"I'm 20."

Ned leaned on the sofa, crossed his long legs, and unhurriedly smoked without another word.

Nancy felt a little guilty.

After a while, Ned took out his wallet and produced a wad of cash on the table.

"I don't have much cash with me. Here is around 5,000 yuan for you."

Nancy hadn't tried to reach out for the money.

Zack beat her to lift his hand and flip the money on the floor.

His action was wanton and frivolous.

The red banknotes showered and dazzled her eyes.

"Why are you so nice to such kind of person?"

Following his speech, Zack looked at Nancy.

He raised his chin high and continued, "Don't you want money? Pick it up."

On the hem of her skirt, her fingertips trembled, but she squatted down to pick up the money.

She needed the money and disregarded the humiliation.

Nancy slightly bent down to pick up the scattered banknotes.

When she picked up the last one, Zack lifted his foot and trod it underfoot.

"Please lift it." Nancy looked at the devilish man.

"Oh."

Zack somehow listened to her and lifted his foot.

Nancy wondered why he suddenly relented.

But an excruciating pain came from her hand the next second.

"Ah!"

Nancy screamed in pain.

Zack used the sole of his leather shoe to step heavily on the back of her hand.

"Zack, have your fun but don't go too far. You should know that this woman is mine now."

Ned shot a warning glance at Zack.

Following his words, he bent over, clasped Nancy's wrist, and pulled her hand out of Zack's sole.

His palm, wide and thick, sent a stream of warmth to her wrist and her heart.

Nancy looked into his deep eyes and blushed.

She remembered his declaration 'This woman is mine.'

Her heart convulsed as she heard such explicit words for the first time.

Ned tugged her wrist and led her to the door.

Obediently she carried the wad of money and followed him.

When they reached the door, Nancy heard a loud noise, followed by the crash of glass and women's squeal.

She looked back and saw Zack's livid face.

Nancy stopped many times during her walk through the corridor. Along the way, people greeted Ned respectfully.

"Are you the owner of this place?"

When they arrived at the underground parking lot, Nancy asked curiously.

Ned looked back with awe-inspiring eyes, and Nancy immediately looked away.

She lowered her head and faced the floor.

She had to admit her fear for him.
