Chapter 251
Tatiana couldn’t take her eyes off of her sister. The scene was even more thrilling than
watching an actual action film.
“You got this, Alyssa!” she cried.
Alyssa dodged their assailant’s ankle sweep, scowling internally. Was this the time to
cheerlead?
“Call the cops, Taty!”
“Oh, okay!” Tatiana quickly took out herphone.
Their assailant could never have imagined that his target would be so skilled and
equipped to fight back despite how gentle and frail she looked.
Seeing that fighting this one would end in defeat, he turned his attention to Tatiana.
When he struck out, Tatiana dropped her phone in shock and quickly closed her
eyes, fear filling her being.
A low grunt made her reopen her eyes.
Alyssa had leaped to her defense, using her arm as a shield against the man’s sharp
blade. The blade sliced through her sleeve and skin, and blood instantly poured out in

“Alyssa!” Tatiana screamed, bursting intotears.
Her sister panted heavily, putting pressure on her arm. It hurt so bad her vision swam.
Their attacker wasn’t planning on leaving them alive tonight, that was for sure.
Just as he raised his butterfly knife again, someone suddenly grabbed and pulled him by
the collar, making him fall backward. Alyssa swiftly kicked the knife out of his hand.
“Fuck!”the man yelled. His voice crackedat the end.
Suddenly, a loud snap could be heard.
Alyssa watched as his arm was twisted behind his back before it snapped at an unnatural
angle.
Alyssa felt grateful for that save.
“Wait- it’s you …?”Alyssa gasped softlywhen she saw who had come to their rescue.
“Good evening. We meet again.” Jamesonshot her a warm smile as he pressed the black-
clad man to the ground, pinning a foot on the back of his neck.
With a twist of his ankle, Jameson sent the man crying in pain, fi st curling weakly.
“Ms. Alyssa!” Sean yelled, running towardthem.
“Sean, come quick! Alyssa’s wounded!”Tatiana cried hurriedly.
“What happened?” Sean nearly had apanic attack, seeing all the bloodshed.”
Who hurt you? Who did this?”
Alyssa sighed.”What are you doing here? Is your mother alright?”
“Now is not the time for that!We need toget you to the hospital!”
The sight of her wound felt like a sharp cut along the surface of Sean’s heart. His eyes had
brimmed with tears. He bent down to try and lift Alyssa, but she quickly stepped away.
“It’s nothing serious. You should look atTaty. The poor girl’s frightened out of her wits.”
“Ms. Alyssa …” Sean mumbled, feelinghelpless.
Alyssa had always been a woman of principle, always independent and holding up for
herself. That showed even now when she was hurt and bleeding. There was not a single
tear to be shed by her.
“Please let him help you, Alyssa. I’m okay,”Tatiana cried softly, tears rolling downher
eyes.”It’s all my fault. You wouldn’t have gotten hurt if I had reacted fast enough.”
“What are you talking about, silly?”Alyssa gently cupped her sister’s cheek.”I’m the one at
fault here. He wouldn’t have targeted us if I weren’t here with you. 11

into a nearby SUV.
“Are you alright, sir?”Jameson’ssecretary cried, running over frantically.
“Yes, Carl.” Jameson languidly brushedaway some dirt on his sleeve, then glanced at
Alyssa.
She was so beautiful.
Alyssa took a deep breath and went up to him, saying gently,”We’re incredibly
grateful for your help, sir. Could you hand that man over, please? He’s vital to our
investigation.”
Jameson smiled.”Sure, but on one condition.”
“Yes?”
Next thing Alyssa knew, her feet were off the ground, and she was safe in the man’s arms.
He had moved so fast that Sean hadn’t a second to react.
The soft gasp of surprise that left her lips was nearly inaudible, but Jameson had heard it
loud as day.
Their eyes met.
“Go to the hospital and have your woundstended to first. I’ll do whatever you say after.”
