"You dare touch her again!"
With a roar, he came from behind. Then, Elizabeth Liang's forehead touched something warm, thick, and slightly hard.
"Hmm..."
Elizabeth grunted in a low voice, only to open her eyes sharply at the sound she had just heard.
On the wall in front of her, it was his hand which just shielded her.
Her heart skipped a beat. She looked up at the man who was standing beside her, her eyes watery.
Once again, he was her knight.
The touch in her heart made her choked with sobs. "James..."
James's face flamed with anger. His eyes were sharp and mad with rage. He was like a vampire from hell, full of danger.
This sudden change sent a quiver down Josephine's spine. Her hand holding Elizabeth's thin hair trembled and she eased her strength.
She had not expected James's presence here at this moment, and she shuddered at the sight of him now, frightened by what had happened last time. She seemed genuinely startled, but still grabbing Elizabeth by the head, her face pale.
James glanced down at Elizabeth, her eyes reddening, her hair in a pitiable mess. He noticed the reddish patch from her forehead and felt his heart tightened. He was consumed by anger.
She went out to dinner with him, being subjected to this humiliation, so obviously right under his nose. His heart was filled for a moment with remorse and monstrous anger.
"Ah!"
She was dozens of meters away from him, but he didn't keep her safe...
Fortunately, he was not too late. He rushed over without hesitation. He only took three steps to come to her from a distance of five or six meters.
In the short span of three steps or nearly two seconds, he thought quickly: Josephine was still holding on to her hair, and it would only hurt her more to try to pull Elizabeth over.
So, at the moment when her forehead was about to hit the wall, he quickly stretched out his hand to act as a human shield. After all, it was the best solution.
"Are you okay, huh?" He comforted her softly with guilt and self-blame. The next second, he stared up at Josephine, who was still stunned, his eyes burning. 'You want to die? !"
James gritted his teeth, voice cold and threatening.
He raised his hand and pinched Josephine's wrist, seemingly with little strength but soon disarmed Josephine. She screamed in pain and let go of Elizabeth in an instant.
He shoved Josephine out of the way and drew Elizabeth Liang behind him.
