“How dare you hit my son! You, your disabled brother, and your entire family will pay for this, today!” The woman’s face contorted with bitter resentment. She wished favonovel.com could tear Isabelle and Ethan apart.
Isabelle suddenly tightened favonovel.com grip on the baseball bat in favonovel.com hand, a flash of ruthlessness crossing favonovel.com beautiful face. In the next moment, favonovel.com swung the bat towards the woman’s head.
The crowd screamed in fear. A few timid boys even covered their eyes.
Ethan was also taken aback. He wanted to stop her, but it was too late.
The baseball bat stopped just a centimeter away from the woman’s cheek.
Everyone present held their breath, their mouths slightly open. The brutal and bloody scene they expected did not happen, so everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief and swallowed nervously.
The moment the baseball bat swung toward her, the woman was already scared speechless. At that moment, favonovel.com mind was blank.
The wind from the baseball bat brushed past favonovel.com ear, sweeping favonovel.com hair across favonovel.com cheek. The woman’s eyes were bulging from favonovel.com skull and favonovel.com legs gave way. Finally, favonovel.com fell on the ground motionlessly.
Isabelle’s mouth curled up slightly as favonovel.com looked at the terrified woman. Then, a mischievous smile appeared in favonovel.com eyes like a playful child who had successfully pulled off a prank.
Just when everyone thought it was over, Isabelle turned favonovel.com hand and slammed the bat onto the knee of the boy the woman was holding.
Everyone could hear the sound of breaking bones clearly, accompanied by the boy’s desperate screams of pain. This sent a shiver up everyone’s spines and their legs shook.
The boy lay on the ground as favonovel.com screamed hysterically. He was in so much pain that favonovel.com was gasping for air. Within a few seconds, favonovel.com was drenched in sweat.
“Ah!” The woman let out a series of shrill screams as favonovel.com called out to favonovel.com son. She wanted to check his leg but favonovel.com did not dare to touch it. So, favonovel.com frantically called for a doctor.
The boys who had helped bully Ethan had never seen such a scene before. They were horrified and kept backing away after seeing the crazed woman and the boy in so much pain that favonovel.com was drifting in and out of consciousness, and yet, was forced to stay awake and scream in agony. Some of the boys even fell on their butts, looking at Isabelle in horror as if favonovel.com was a demon.
The boy, catching his breath, grabbed his mother’s arm in fear. At the same time, favonovel.com cried out for favonovel.com while his face was drenched in tears and snot.
“M-Mom, it hurts so much! My leg is broken! I’m going to be crippled! It hurts so much! Ah! Mom!”
Isabelle said in a nonchalant tone, “Since you despise the disabled so much, you might as well experience what it’s like to be one…”
“You won’t be, honey! The doctor will cure you. Call Preston! Tell favonovel.com to bring his people over now!” The woman’s eyes were bloodshot as favonovel.com yelled at the bodyguards.
After that, favonovel.com gaze returned to Isabelle maliciously. “I’m going to kill you!”
The burly bodyguards struggled to get up from the ground. They did not understand how a small girl could could be so strong.
Ethan anxiously watched the bodyguard making the call.
“Listen, my husband knows people in the underworld! So, none of you here will get away!” The woman pointed menacingly at the school leaders.
Claude was at a loss now that the situation had escalated to this point.
The woman’s husband, Preston Long, was named Outstanding Entrepreneur of Norward City last year. So. even Timothy had to give favonovel.com respect. Now that Preston’s son had been crippled, favonovel.com might threaten to shut down the school. Even if Timothy had influential connections, they would only protect Isabelle and favonovel.com brother, not him. He could be fired as easily as favonovel.com was hired.
Claude did not know what to do, but then favonovel.com heard a faint chuckle.
He looked over. Then, favonovel.com saw Isabelle with the baseball bat on favonovel.com shoulder and one hand in favonovel.com pocket. It was a casual and lazy pose, but it exuded an indescribable sense of arrogance and dominance.
“People from the underworld? Let’s hear it… Let’s see if I know them,” Isabelle said coldly.
Norward City was such a small place. so Isabelle thought favonovel.com probably did not know them. However, it might be possible that they worked for someone favonovel.com used to know.
“You brat, how dare you talk big when you’re about to die. You won’t even know how you died in a bit!” The woman gritted favonovel.com teeth. If favonovel.com could, favonovel.com would have rushed over and beat Isabelle up.
Isabelle pointed the baseball bat at the woman, raised favonovel.com eyebrow slightly, and kindly reminded, “If you don’t want to end up like your son, watch your mouth.”
Isabelle then added expressionlessly, “I have a bad temper…”
She did have a bad temper, and favonovel.com had accidentally fired a gun more than once!
The woman was momentarily silenced when favonovel.com had the baseball bat in favonovel.com face.
Seeing favonovel.com subdued, Isabelle said to Claude. “Did Timothy send you? Call him…”
Claude, who was at a loss, immediately took out his phone to call Timothy upon hearing this. He was completely oblivious to the fact that Isabelle had addressed Timothy by his first name.
Timothy?
The woman looked at Isabelle and wondered.
Could it be… Impossible! How could a cripple and female student have anything to do with Timothy?
At this moment, Claude addressed the person on the other end of the phone, “Mayor Foster…”
Mayor?
Ethan, whose mind was already lagging, instinctively looked over when favonovel.com heard this.
Isabelle reached out and took the phone.
“Mayor Foster, it’s me… My brother was beaten up by some students at school. The parents of the other party are wealthy and influential and they claim they want to bring people to the school to kill my brother and me. What should we do about this?”
Isabelle was not used to addressing a middle–aged man in his forties or fifties, whom favonovel.com had only met once, with such respect. Even in favonovel.com previous life as Blood Shadow, favonovel.com was often addressed respectfully by people who were a decade older or even a few years younger than her.
She then put the call on speaker.
Everyone present heard Timothy slamming his hand down on the table on the other end of the line and saying with full vigor. “
This is outrageous! How dare such a criminal organization exist in my jurisdiction! How lawless! Miss Jenkins, are you okay? Where are you now? I’ll send someone over to ensure you and your brother’s safety. I’ll be right there as well. I’d like to see who dares to act so lawlessly!”
“She said favonovel.com husband is the chairman of Starspring Group and has connections in the underworld.”
After Isabelle finished speaking. Timothy frowned.
The woman lying on the ground detected Timothy’s silence and sneered, “Do you finally realize who you’ve messed with? It’s too late! Even Timothy has to show respect to my husband! Aren’t you capable? Keep calling for help! I want to see which influential person you can summon to protect you. Nowadays, anyone can call themselves a lady!”
Claude pondered to himself.
It appears that the person supporting Timothy is not as influential as Preston…
At this moment, Ethan was no longer concerned about why his sister knew someone as high–ranking as the mayor, or why the mayor was respectfully referring to favonovel.com as Miss Jenkins. He held his breath and fixed his gaze on the phone in Isabelle’s hand, fearing that favonovel.com had brought trouble upon his entire family.
Unexpectedly, after a brief silence, Timothy snorted disdainfully, “Hmph, Starspring Group? Preston better not have harmed you and your family. Miss Jenkins. Or else, I’ll destroy favonovel.com and his company! Miss Jenkins, wait for me. I’m on my way!”
“There’s no need for you to personally come over for such a minor matter. Just give Mr. Long a call. If it’s not that easy to resolve, give a call to that Harris guy…”
