Chapter 578 “What are you guys trying to do?”
With panic and fear accumulated in her eyes, Tessa’s facial expression changed drastically.
Her body shivered, and she stepped back, taking one step at a time. At that moment, she thought she
had encountered a robbery.
After all, the peace and order in foreign countries is notoriously bad, particularly at night. There will be
robbers who specially target anyone who walks alone.
Thinking of this, she threw the handbag in her hand toward the scar-faced man. “I know you guys want
money. Here, take it! I can give you guys money as long as you let me go.”
Looking at the handbag dropped under his feet, the scar-faced man raised his eyebrows. However, he
ignored it.
Looking up and staring at Tessa, he said with a bloodthirsty smile, “Miss Reinhart, it seems like you have
some misunderstanding about my profession. I’m not one of those lowly robbers.”
Upon hearing this, Tessa felt her heart sink. All of a sudden, she had a bad premonition.
“Who are you?” She looked around from the corner of her eyes while guarding herself against the scar-
faced man with hope to find a chance to call for help or escape.
Naturally, the scar-faced man did not look past her little gesture. With that, he sneered, “Miss Reinhart,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtit’s useless to think that someone would come here. No one would come here at this hour.”
As he said that, he gave the subordinate next to him a look at the same time.
Within minutes, those men formed a circle and enclosed Tessa in the middle.
At the sight of this, Tessa was scared out of her wits. Even so, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to
calm down. Appearing to be tough outwardly yet timid inwardly, she asked, “What are you guys trying to
do?”
“Someone hired us to break your hand. Since we’ve received the money, it’s natural for us to carry out
the task given by the boss,” the scar-faced man said. Step by step, he approached Tessa with bad
intentions.
At once, Tessa’s face turned as pale as a white sheet.
Break my hand?! This person wants to destroy me! Who is it? Who can be this cruel?!
Clenching her fists, she endured her fear and looked at the scar-faced man. Then, she gritted her teeth
and uttered, “Who is it that wants to break my hand? I can pay you double the amount!”
She thought that this group of men were simply tempted by money. However, it did not cross her mind
that her proposal would be rejected.
“Oh, that won’t do. Since we’ve received the order, we can’t break the rules.”
The scar-faced man stopped two steps away from Tessa, and his facial expression was indescribably
ruthless. “So, I can only strike at you, Miss Reinhart. You guys, hold her down!” Without a doubt, that last
sentence was spoken to his surrounding subordinates.
At the same time, the scar-faced man picked up the knife in his hand and looked at it against the
moonlight.
Under the moonlight, the body of the blade shone with a cold light. The light shone on Tessa’s face,
making her pupils shrink in fright.
Just when the others were preparing to hurt Tessa, the bodyguard who had been hiding in the dark
appeared.
He raided from behind and directly attacked the scar-faced man’s subordinates.
“Who are you?” The scar-faced man glared at the bodyguard angrily when he saw that someone came to
break his deeds.
However, the bodyguard ignored him completely and shouted at Tessa, who was still a little stupefied,
“Miss Tessa! Run quickly!”
At this moment, Tessa also snapped back to her senses.
Looking at the bodyguard in a black suit, she nodded in panic. She planned to turn around and leave to
seek reinforcements.
It was just that it did not take her two steps before she was blocked again. At the same time, the ruthless

“Trying to make a run? Did I agree to that?” he said. Then, he immediately motioned his subordinates to
go and grab Tessa.
As she saw the burly men who rushed toward her, Tessa was so frightened that her face turned ghastly
pale.
“Ah!” she screamed in panic. Then, she subconsciously changed direction and ran away. However,
someone quickly blocked her path again.
“Go away! Go away! Don’t come near me!” She waved her arms in the air out of fear.
Upon seeing this, the bodyguard hastily stepped forward and protected Tessa.
However, the amount of their enemy outnumbered them. There was only one bodyguard on Tessa’s side.
No matter how competent he was, he still could not defeat the four burly men.
nen.
Moreover, those burly men were also skillful themselves. They looked just like professionals.
The more he fought the burly men, the more frightened the bodyguard got. Eventually, he became
anxious,
If this goes on, I will not be able to protect Miss Tessal
Standing outside the melee circle, the scar-faced man stared at the bodyguard with sharp gazes
Clearly, he could also tell that the bodyguard had extraordinary skills. And thus, he quickly gave another
