Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Who Dares Touch My Woman!

Seeing the speeding rose-pink Maserati, Cecilia Vaughn’s mind went blank, as if every ounce of strength in her limbs and bones had been drained.

Fear spread throughout her body.

Fragments of thoughts chaotically flashed in her mind.

Everything seemed blurry, as if the surroundings were so dark, with a car speeding towards her without slowing down, its headlights glaring blindingly, throwing her heart into disarray.

A loud screeching noise, someone was hit and thrown out, and the small her fainted on the ground...

Someone was yelling for help, someone was dialing 110...

The shattered scenes overlapped with the reality in front of her, making it impossible to distinguish between truth and illusion for a moment.

...

"Young Madam! Move quickly! It’s dangerous—"

Wyatt Law never expected Cecilia Vaughn to be distracted at a time like this. Having walked the edge of life and death for many years, he instinctively pushed Cecilia Vaughn aside.

The food box hit the ground with a loud bang, echoing sharply, and Cecilia Vaughn suddenly snapped back to reality.

Due to an unstable center of gravity, she fell directly onto the curb.

Her palm, as white as snow, instantly seeped bright red; her knee throbbed with pain, as though pierced by a thousand needles.

"Young Madam, are you alright?"

Wyatt hurriedly walked towards Cecilia Vaughn, seeing her in disarray, especially her bleeding palm, his honest face suddenly took on a menacing look!

These people dared to hurt the Young Madam!

Almost simultaneously, the rose-pink Maserati screeched to a halt just before hitting where Cecilia Vaughn had stood.

Two enchanting figures stepped out from inside.

Fiona Vaughn rushed forward first, her palm-sized face full of panic and worry, as if she truly felt remorse.

"Sister, were you scared just now? Are you not hurt?!"

Chloe Alden glanced disdainfully at Cecilia Vaughn’s frightened appearance; it was the first time seeing Cecilia so pale and panicked, deeply satisfying her domineering mindset.

"Fiona, why bother with her? Nothing happened to her, I didn’t even touch a corner of her clothes!"

"She scared herself, insisted on dodging to the side, and now her knee and palm are scraped. She totally deserves it!"

Looking at her friend’s complacent manner, Fiona Vaughn’s gentle face showed a hint of disapproval.

"Chloe, how can you say that! That’s too rude!"

Fiona paused, guilt flashing in her beautiful eyes, and walked slowly towards Cecilia Vaughn.

"Sister, don’t be mad at Chloe, she’s just tough on the outside, soft on the inside. Chloe just got her driver’s license not long ago, she’s not skilled with the car, she really didn’t do it on purpose!"

Wyatt, supporting the breathless Cecilia Vaughn, glared fiercely at Fiona Vaughn and Chloe Alden, his eyes almost igniting a fire!

"And you dare claim it wasn’t intentional! You hurt our Young Madam; even a hundred lives wouldn’t be enough to compensate!"

"Not enough to compensate?"

Chloe Alden sneered disdainfully at Cecilia Vaughn, who was still a bit dazed, her voice full of arrogant satisfaction.

"Miss has plenty of money! She scared herself like this! If I were you, I’d have her checked at the hospital for mental issues first!"

"Rest assured, for whatever your so-called Young Madam spends on treatment, I won’t short a single cent!"

...

Wyatt, furious, nearly slapped Chloe Alden across the face.

"You—"

It was Chloe Alden’s reminder that made him notice the Young Madam’s unusual mental state, which seemed to be the most pressing matter now!

Since that Maserati sped up, the Young Madam’s face had turned unnaturally pale, as if she was scared breathless.

He is trained, knows the Young Madam only has superficial injuries, but her face is far too unusual!

Wyatt immediately panicked, hurriedly called Adrian Law with the simplest sentences.

...

Law Headquarters, eighteenth floor, President’s office.

Adrian Law, while reviewing this season’s financial report, wore a solemn expression. The finance director and several assistants standing by the desk didn’t dare breathe, sweat trickling down their foreheads.

President Law’s face looked ominous, surely he wouldn’t reprimand them for several hours?

At that moment, an untimely phone call disrupted the air.

Startled, everyone wondered who was so daring. Raising their eyes, they saw the man at the desk answer the phone.

"Master, there’s been an accident, the Young Madam was nearly hit by a car, she’s not in a good state, please come to Stellerton University’s southeast gate quickly."

Adrian Law’s brows tightened abruptly, releasing an aura ten times stronger than before, alarming the finance department who thought it was some fatal chain call.

While they trembled, Adrian Law cast a cold glance at them.

"Return to your offices, revise the report and deliver it to me tomorrow."

Without waiting for a response, Adrian Law quickly left his seat, striding out of the office.

The finance team exchanged bewildered looks; what happened to President Law?!

They’d never seen the CEO move so hastily, and his terrifying aura was like the Grim Reaper, ready to claim lives for a heavenly sacrifice!

...

Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn were still enjoying the show.

Observing Wyatt make a phone call, Chloe Alden showed no fear, sneering lightly.

"You want reinforcements? Let me tell you, even if it escalates to the police station, I won’t fear you! I didn’t touch Cecilia Vaughn at all! That’s self-inflicted!"

"Chloe..."

Fiona Vaughn tugged at Chloe Alden’s sleeve, looking pitiful.

"Don’t say that, you’re Sister’s driver, quickly take her to the hospital; Chloe will cover the medical expenses."

Not long after their words fell, out of nowhere, over a dozen American military Hummers surrounded them.

What’s going on?!

Chloe Alden was startled, the black off-road vehicles formed a circle around them, impenetrable!

... 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

The leading military Hummer’s door suddenly opened, and a tall figure stepped out, with a stunning face that showcased the creator’s favor, yet his expression was overcast, spreading coldness invisibly!

The man’s oppressive presence between his brows seemed to choke anyone!

Fiona Vaughn watched Adrian Law approach constantly, her heart racing fiercely.

It was him!

The man who once caused her to lose her hotel reservation!

...

Fiona Vaughn knew today wouldn’t end well, but she felt confident inside.

"Sir, today’s incident was unintentional, please don’t blame Chloe, she’s a rookie driver, it’s inevitable to lose control..."

She had never been involved in Chloe’s intentional hit-and-run, just casually gave a couple of hints, it couldn’t be blamed on her?

Fiona Vaughn felt complacent, but Adrian Law’s cold demeanor didn’t even grant her a glance.

"Wyatt, tie these two women to the Maserati!"
