"I don't need your protection, and I never will," Eileen declared defiantly, refusing to give in, even though Jonathan was tightly gripping her collar.
Noting the shift in Jonathan's expression, she smirked. "Do you really think that you can surpass Bryan by tormenting me? You will never surpass him. All you're doing is proving to everyone that you are just a coward who bullies women!" Jonathan's face flushed with fury. "You are incredibly stubborn!

"Your stubbornness is infuriating!” Jonathan snapped. “I won't show any mercy. Today, you are going to face ruin at my hands!" Jonathan stood up and dragged Eileen toward the door.
Battered and exhausted from Brandon's earlier attack, Eileen lacked the strength to fight back now. As she was yanked toward the door, she clung to it with all her might, refusing to let go.
Jonathan crouched down, prying her fingers away with force.
Exhaustion had drained Eileen's last reserves of strength, and a flicker of despair began to cloud her eyes. Suddenly, a loud crash echoed down the hall, followed by the heavy thud of hurried footsteps. Several imposing figures stormed into view, and the dazed bodyguards quickly scrambled to intervene.
Though Eileen couldn't see who had arrived, she surmised it was either Jacob or Josue.
Jonathan looked up, his face contorted with rage. "Damn it! Brandon, how dare you deceive me!" He released Eileen and barked orders for all his bodyguards to charge forward. But despite their efforts, they couldn't stop the man.
Every inch of Eileen's body ached, and it took all her effort just to sit up. Her back was against the door as she struggled to catch her breath. When she finally lifted her head, her eyes widened in disbelief.

It wasn't until the last bodyguard was taken down that Bryan noticed Eileen in the corner, her back pressed m against the door. Her long black hair was tangled, and her clothes were in disarray. Despite her condition, her eyes sparkled with a mix of happiness, excitement, and relief.
