I'll be more careful from now on. | promise | won't ever hug you again. Fll stick to in

more physical contact of any kind.”

But when she had rushed into his arms just now, he hadn't actually felt uncomfortable or diegolated

If anything, he’d wanted to wipe the tears off her face.

Still, he was meeting Leila tomorrow, and he hated that Lily's tears had affected him. Disgusted with his own lack

of self-control, he didn’t want to engage her further.

“Mm. he replied coldly.

Then, in that schilly tone, he added, “Go upstairs”

Without another word, he turned and walked ahead, his steps crisp and unwavering.

Lily understood. His men must've already dealt with the two who'd tried to ambush her. She waited until there

were a couple feet between them before following.

Simon didn’t really want to see Lily again, but the thought of her taking advantage of his dignified cousin made

his blood boil. He followed them upstairs anyway,

What Lily didn’t expect was that Ashton hadn't just restrained the two men in the dressing room-he’d also

caught the one who'd locked the door from the outside..

Now all three of them were tied up tightly and thrown onto the floor like ragdolls.

They'd already taken a beating from Ashton, enough to make them question their entire existence. And now, as

James and Simon entered the room, both wearing expressions cold enough to freeze fire, the men were on the

verge of collapse.

The ringleader-Jyro-trembled as he begged, “Mr. James, Mr. Simon, please have mercy. We really know we

messed up. We swear we'll never lay a hand on Ms. Lily again. Ms. Lily, you're a generous and kind- hearted

person-please, we're begging you, say a few good words on our behalf. Help us. Please.”

They may not have physically assaulted her, but they had fully intended to strip her and take photos that would

destroy her life.

Their actions were enough to ruin her reputation forever.

Lily wasn’t a saint. There was no way she would let this slide.

Without hesitation, she planted her foot hard on Jyro’s stomach and demanded, “Weren't you sent here by

Wendy and Elsa? Answer me!”

Jyro’s trembling intensified.

Yes, they had been hired by Wendy.

Elsa’s biological father, Jimmy, had recently gotten himself into legal trouble and war With no other options,

Wendy had turned to familiar faces-people like Jyro and his.

in custody.

But if Jyro confessed, not only would he lose the remaining payment, Wendy might try to claw hack the deposit

she'd already given. Plus, he was afraid of the powerful forces behind her.

He shifted his eyes, avoiding Lily's gaze. “I don’t know anyone named Wendy or Elsa, M. Lily. | have no idea what

you're talking about”

Simon crossed his arms, scowling. He was convinced Lily was just trying to slander Wendy and Elsa again. “Laly,

don’t push it, Wendy and Lizzy would never do something like this. They-"

“Simon, shut up.”

James’ voice was ice.

He didn’t know why, but he hated hearing anyone lecture Lily. He cut Simon off without hesitation.

Like Lily, he suspected this whole thing was orchestrated by Wendy and her daughter.

Ashton had always been reliable, James had asked him to dig into the backgrounds of these three men. and in

under fifteen minutes, Ashton had practically unearthed their family trees.

He didn’t waste twith Jyro.

“I heard you have a ten-year-old son and a seventy-year-old mother, James said, voice smooth as a razor’'s

edge. “What do you think would happen if | made sure your mother had to bury her only child? If | wiped out

your entire bloodline?”

James was a law-abiding citizen. He would never actually kill anyone.

But intimidation?

That he could do.

He tilted his head slightly. “Or maybe | don’t make it quick. Maybe | send him abroad. Somewhere he gets

tortured day and night. How does that sound?”

“Bob,” he said, his gaze shifting to the second man. Then to the third, “Larry”

“I hear you both have parents. Wives. Kids. How about | send your entire families to meet their makers tonight?”

“Please, Mr. James, have mercy!” Jyro screamed.

The three men didn’t care about the pain anymore. They scrambled, groveling at James’ feet.

“We're sorry, Mr. James, We'll never lay a hand on Ms. Lily again. Please don’t hurt our kids. Please!”

“You recorded the meeting with Wendy, didn’t you?” one of them blurted. “Didn’t you say you got a video?”

“That's right! Give it to Mr. James. Maybe if he sees it, he'll go easy on our families!”
