“Mr Walton has never been a nosy. If you can hand her over to me, I will thank you in the future.”
“If you want to take someone from me, I have to see if you can.”
It was glaring that Hurley did not intend to leave Sophie.
Mr Jordan thought about it and realised that he couldn’t beat Hurley.
And just now, his men seemed to have even attacked Hurley.
“Since I belong to Mr Walton, I will give you some respect.”
“Withdraw!” Mr Jordan wanted to run with his men. Although he was arrogant, it was because of his agreement
with Stella and Matilda.
He did not dare to shout in front of Hurley.
“Wait.” Hurley said, “Did I ask you to leave?”
A cold sweat broke out on Mr Jordan’s back. Although Hurley’s voice was not loud, its intimidating power was even more oppressive than a deafening roar.
Under the dim light, Hurley looked like a statue cast in a cold and gloomy atmosphere, his face terrifying and tragic.
In particular, the hostile aura around him was like the momentum building up before a storm.
“Mr Walton, I was wrong. I was really wrong. I was blind, and I didn’t know I had touched your person. I apologise to you; please let me go!”
How could he have known that the aloof Hurley would actually stand up for a woman?
“Is this how Mr Jordan apologises?” Hurley was not satisfied with this superficial apology.
“I am sorry, Miss Hades!” Mr Jordan knelt in front of Hurley.
Sophie: “…”
The thing about power was perfect. A strong dragon could overwhelm local snakes.
Sophie never planned to forgive Mr Jordan just like that, and Chris soon brought his men in.
The men Chris led in were better trained than Mr Jordan’s men.
Mr Jordan’s face became ashen as he was still on the ground begging for mercy.
“After teaching them a lesson, hand them over to the police,” Hurley instructed Chris.

“Yes, Sir!” Chris and his men quickly took Mr Jordan and his men away.
Only Sophie and Hurley were left, and Hurley’s arm was still bleeding.
Sophie looked at Hurley’s hand and asked, “Are you alright?”
Hurley shook his head, “I am alright.”
This injury was not a big deal. Hurley has also suffered more severe injuries.
One good turn deserves another. Although Sophie may not be on good terms with Hurley, Hurley’s injury is her responsibility because he protected her.
Sophie pulled him: “Let’s go to the hospital!”
“No need; it’s not too heavy. I will just go home and bandage it.”
“Come with me.” Sophie saw a pharmacy not far away.
She went to buy some medicine and gauze that could easily clean the wound and asked Hurley to take off his coat.
The dark coat was soaked in blood, but it was not noticeable. After Hurley took off his coat, they saw his white shirt stained red with blood, which was shocking.
Sophie skilfully cut off his shirt, revealing his wound.
Only then did she see that in addition to the heavily bleeding wound, there was also the wound where the knife had penetrated the first time.
The two injuries were obtained from protecting her.
If she were the fool from before, she would have been very moved. When she sees Hurley’s wound, she might have burst into tears. She would have been worried about him being in pain, and she would have thought that he was a fool for getting injured for her.
Unfortunately, at that time, Hurley had never helped her.
When she needed protection the most, Hurley gave her a fatal blow. But now, she does not need this kind of cheap protection.
“It will hurt; bear it.” After that, she dipped a cotton swab in alcohol and cleaned Hurley’s wound.
It was painful without anaesthesia, but Hurley did not say anything. He just looked down at Sophie’s bandaging technique.
