Chapter 193: Gemma, Don’t Be Afraid, I’ll Handle It for You
7
“Gemma! How dare you talk to Drogo like that, you must have a death wish.”
“Let’s think of a way to punish her this time, make her bark like a dog ”
“I’m down with that, Hey, I just stole a phone, the camera’s great. Let’s record it and enjoy it later.”
“She looks so much better now, even Extrer than when she was a kid. Look at her face.”
“Let me touch in
A filthy, blackened hand reached out.
It was the hand of someone who did farm work and maybe some mechanic jobs, rough and dark
The hand was full of calluses and splinters
Just like her father’s used to be
“AM”
Gemma’s forced composure shattered
she hid beside the door frame.
Too scared to move.
As if she would just stand there and take it if they decided to hit her.
“Hahaha, look at her, still the same as before.”
“She was just bluffing u
“Yeah, she’s all grown up now,
much more fun than before.”
“Hey Drogo, she made the dermatology people call the cops on you, bulled you. This time, you decide how to punish her, we’ll follow your lead”
“If it weren’t for Drogo, we wouldn’t even be here. We’ll listen to Drogo”
Drogo squinted at his sister, who was trembling with fear.
A cruel glum flashed across his dark face.
“Same as before, tie her up and hang her on the tree, let her be there for a couple of days”
“Yeah, that sounds more fun, she’ll be conscious but too weak to fight back.”
“Drogo always has the best ideas,”
The group surged forward, ready to grab Gemma and take her away.
The first one to reach out suddenly screamed in pain.
The others froze, not understanding what had happened when they saw the guy’s body jerk and then fly backward, slamming into the wall behind
him
He bounced off and hit the ground.
Couldn’t get up.
In the spot where he had been standing, there was now a man dressed in black
The man radiated killing intent.
Like he had just walked out of hell.
It was terrifying-
Drogo quickly backed away, pulling his gang with ham.
Someone went to help the guy who had been kicked.
But the guy was shaking in pain, couldn’t stand, couldn’t speak.
Who.. who are you!”
Droga shouted through gritted teeth
He’d been in fights since he was a kid, and he knew when someone was dangerous
Like this guy — someone who didn’t care about his own life. You had to stay away froin people like that…
But this guy was protecting Germa
Drogo couldn’t swallow his pride
“Tm Gemma’s brother, you fucking know that! If you dare touch me, you’ll dier”

The man in black ignored him, instead turning to help Gemma
Gemma was just coming back to her senses
When the realized what had happened, she let out a long breath.
How could she have forgotten!
Cassis had people protecting her all along.
With that reassurance, she quickly regained her composure.
“You still dare to call yourself my brother!”
Drogo backed away again, scared.
For the first time, he felt like his sister was kind of terrifying
Her face was the same, but there was something in her eyes–like a storm was brewing.
She wasn’t t the same kid who used to cry and hide when she was bullied.
And there was this aura around her, something he couldn’t quite describe.
Like the village chief.
Even without saying a word, she commanded respect.
“You you
He instantly chickened out.
Already looking around for an escape route.
Gemma glanced at the others.
Every single one of them had bullied her in the past.
“You’re all here, saves me the trouble of tracking you down later!”
She had been startled earlier, reminded of the shadows of her childhood, which had let these guys run their mouths for so long.
Back then, she had nothing
So she had to avoid getting hurt.
But now, she had friends standing behind her. Why should she be afraid of a bunch of losers!
“You think you’re so tough, huh?”
“Come on!”
“You want to bully me?”
“Come at mel
She took a few steps forward.
The group quickly backed away.
All of them were intimidated by her fierce presence.
When they saw her bodyguard arrive, they turned and ran.
Only Drogo was left.
“You… you stay back!”
Drogo tried to set tough, but his whole body was shaking
Gemma sneered.
“Drogo, you haven’t shown up for years. How did you manage to find me so easily this time?”
Tell me, who sent you?”
Drogo backed away again, trying to make a run for it.
But the bodyguard was fast. The moment Drogo made a move, the bodyguard blocked his path..
In a few quick moves, Drogo was kicked to the ground
He tried to get up, but the pain was too much. He couldn’t move.
Only now did he realize how scared he was
“Sis, I’m sorry, sis, please let me go.“
He wailed like a bamber.
Gemma looked at his tear–streaked face and paused.
She glanced around
Ghapter 193 Gemma, Don’t Be Afraid, I’ll Handle it for You
Oh, her parents weren’t here.
No one was going to hit her just because Drogo was crying
She suddenly laughed.
she had really left that village behind.
Left her nightinares behind
“Sis, I was wrong
“Don’t let him hit met
“Im sick, I came to you for help. I was juu joking earlier, sis, I was wrong.”
Genna’s eyes grew colder.
Until there was no trace of human emotion left.
“Throw him out. Be careful, he’s got a skin condition.”
The bodyguard nodded, grabbing Drogo by the collar like he was a chicken and dragging him downstairs
Drogo tried to scream for help, but the bodyguard, annoyed by the noise, dislocated his jaw.
All he could do was mimble.
A few passersby gave ham sympathetic looks, but no one helped him.
Gemma stood by the window, slowly opening in
The bodyguard seemed to know what she wanted and deliberately tossed Drogo next to the trash can across the street.
From this angle, Droga’s clothes looked about as dirty as the trash.
Maybe even dirter.
Serves him right!.
Trash belongs in the trash.
But unfortunately.
After the bodyguard left, the villagers who had min away earlier came back and took Drogo with them.
“Gemma!”
Brian rushed in, sweat
sweating and out of breath, his voice urgent
“Theard someone came to give you trouble. Who was it?
Gemma tumed away from the window and closed the curtains.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm the storm of emotions inside her. “Tamily. The kind that doesn’t deserve to be called human.”
Even though she tried her best, her voice still cracked a little.
Brian quickly stepped closer, placing his hands on her shoulders, looking her over. “What did they want? Money? Let me handle it for you, okay?”
