Chapter 32 Let Me Go Seemed like Lance really treated me as a means of trade to get what he wanted.
I felt like someone was slicing of my heart, piece by piece. I never knew I could be treated this was as a
human being.
I didn’t know why I wanted to escape. I sold myself to Lance, how was it any different from laying
underneath this man?
When the old man’s rough palm touched my skin, I wanted to vomit. I gagged, I can’t. I really couldn’t Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
accept this kind of man touching me.
I struggled hard underneath him. Although he was old, he was not weak at all. He gave me another
slap across my face.
Then, he licked my face with that gross tongue of his. I nearly died right on the spot out of disgust.
“Pretty little girl, stop trying, if you serve me well I will approve the land your boss wants. Come on, just
let me do you, okay?” his words were filthy. Lance Mason, I
screamed out his name in my mind. My hatred for him only grew bigger.
I was struggling for my life when I saw a table lamp beside me. Without hesitation, picked it up and
smashed it onto the old man’s head.
He groaned in pain and laid on me, his blood splashed a little onto my face. I was shocked I pushed
him away from me and ran out. As I didn’t hurt his weak part, he was still conscious. He tried to grab
my legs but I was quicker. I didn’t even put on my shoes and ran out bare footed.
I didn’t know where to go at this point, I just knew that I have to run for my life and never let Lance find
me again. I don’t want to be used as a trade.
“Come back here, you little b*itch!” the old man shouted behind me.
I ran like a dog was chasing me and never looked back. I ran as fast as I could and I crashed into a
man’s arms. I looked up and saw Niklaus Sands.
I pulled his shirt and didn’t let go, shaking him. “Mr Sands, help me please! Please 1 beg you!”
Niklaus Sands pulled me away from his arms but didn’t push me away from him. He noticed the old
man behind me, running towards us with blood on his head, and looked at me, who was looking like
I’ve just seen a ghost. He’s a smart man and immediately understood what was going on.
“Mr Zhang, didn’t the government create a law forbidding anyone from the
government from coming to this kind of places? Seeing Mr Zhang chasing after a lady here in this place
at night, I guess you are already breaking the law, am I right? As a good citizen, should I report you?”
Niklaus hugged me by my waist and softly patted me at my back, as if he was trying to comfort me.
It seems like Niklaus wasn’t afraid of this Mr Zhang at all.
The Sands Family is a very powerful family here. Lance’s power wasn’t as high and authoritative as the
Sand’s Family yet. They were very close to the government, of course Niklaus wouldn’t be afraid of a
small government officer.
This place wasn’t Lance’s stronghold, so in order to get the land he wanted and to do business, he had
to make a deal and be humble to these officers.
“Oh, it’s Mr Sands! How’s your grandfather?” Mr Zhang immediately changed a topic, trying to shift the
attention away from what he wanted to do with me.
Niklaus ignored his question and pointed at me: “I know this woman, I’m here to bring her back. If you
see her in the future, keep in mind that she’s not someone you can touch.”
Then, Niklaus led me to the lift and we entered the lift together. My sighed in relief, with teary eyes, I
bowed to Niklaus and thanked him for saving me. If he didn’t turn up there, I must have been raped,
again……. at this point, I didn’t want to think about revenge on Lance anymore. Whatever hatred or
stupid mom, I didn’t care anymore. I just want to live peacefully in the corner of the world, alone.
Niklaus patted on my shoulder and comforted me gently: “Don’t be scared, okay? This is my place,
nobody would dare touch you if I say so.”
I nodded my head and thanked him again.
Niklaus looked down at my bare feet. Without a word, he carried me in his arms. I felt a little shy so I
asked him to put me down.
He refused.
The lift stopped and I saw Lance. He was held up by his driver, he looked like he was in a hurry to get
into the lift.
Lance noticed me in Niklaus’ arms and his eyes turned ice cold.
I stared back at him, my eyes were only filled with hate and nothing else. I’ve known this man for nearly
20 years and I have never hurt him this much, how could he?
“Using a woman to get a piece of land, this doesn’t seem to be how CEO Mason works.” Niklaus
scoffed and insulted.
I wasn’t sure if the alcohol made Lance’s brain functioned slower, he hesitated for a
moment before speaking: “Who else isn’t like that when it comes to business, don’t try to act noble.”
Then, Lance turned to me and demanded me to get out of Niklaus’ arms. “Jennie, get down and walk
by yourself, or are you waiting for me to carry you?”
I didn’t think he would even touch me, let alone carry me. If he did, he would carry me to the old man
again!
I was really terrified. Niklaus was like my safe haven right now. He’s my guardian angel at this moment.
I didn’t dare to let go of him and I held onto him even tighter. To be really honest, I was really, really
terrified of what Lance would do to me if I let go.
My behaviour seemed to provoked Lance even further. His eyes turned blood shot, like he was going to
consume me whole. Am I going to die?
