Chapter 563
Josephine’s eyes lit up with desperate hope. She started struggling wildly again, screaming at the top of her lungs, “Help me! Please, help me!” At this moment, it was all she could do.
“Bree, step back,” Bowen ordered as his expression turned grim.
He and Aubree had thought things between Josephine and Samuel were just like the rumors said, but now it was clear this was a whole different story.
Originally, Aubree and Bowen had planned to scare Josephine as they squeezed some useful information or blackmail material out of her about the village chief’s family.
But they never could’ve imagined that the truth was the complete opposite of what they thought.
Bowen told Aubree to step back, then kicked the door open with a loud crash.
As the door burst open, Samuel was caught red–handed. His pants tangled around his legs as he tried to force himself on Josephine. She resisted him with all her strength, and Samuel looked like a pervert who’d die for a taste of tulips, shameless to the very end.
Dust rained down from the doorframe as Bowen grabbed Samuel by the collar before throwing him across the room like a ragdoll.
Aubree immediately grabbed the blanket from the bed and threw it over Josephine to cover her.
Samuel, who was an accountant and a typical bookworm, wasn’t tall. He was just a bit over 5’7” and pretty scrawny in size. Bowen flung him like a rag doll, sending him flying in a perfect arc before he landed with a bone–jarring thud on the concrete floor; the sound of him hitting the ground made everyone’s teeth ache.
“Who are you people? Do you even know who I am?” Samuel blustered, trying to sound tough.
Seeing two strangers, Samuel actually felt a bit more at ease.
His gaze swept over the pair before it locked onto Aubree–a woman so gorgeous it made him pause. He was sure he’d never seen her before.
While they were complete strangers, it was obvious what these two were here for.
Samuel instantly realized these two were the fruit merchants from out of town.
Mattias stood off to the side, his eyes wide open in shock, and he was shaken by everything happening before him.
He suddenly threw himself into Josephine’s arms, crying out, “Mom, what’s wrong?”
While sizing them up, he said, “You’re the three outsiders staying at David’s house, aren’t you?
He put on a fake friendly grin and said to Bowen, “Hey, man, I know you probably don’t get what’s going on here, so I’ll just let this whole thing slide.”
