The next mont, Keira’s foot slamd viciously into
his groin!!
“Bang!”
Everyone seed to hear a faint sound of sothing shattering, and then Jackson turned pale in an
instant. He looked down incredulously and saw a trail of blood
at his crotch…@
Jackson was stupefied.
A surge of excruciating pain hit him, and he only felt darkness before his eyes, as he passed out from
the
pain!
“Mr. Gill!”
The thugs beside him couldn’t help but exclaim in shock as they rushed to Jackson’s side, and then
turned to Keira with a vicious glare, cursing, “You just wait, Gill family will not let this go!!”
Leaving those words behind, they quickly lifted Jackson up and hurriedly left the place!
The courtyard still retained the chaos of the recent
scuffle, and only after they had gone did it finally quiet
down.
Keira’s brow furrowed slightly when she heard Matias’s panicked voice. “Keera, you, how could you…”
Keira looked at him indifferently. “What about it?”
Matias heaved a sigh. “Forget it, if the Freeman Sect starts investigating, just say it was who kicked
him! Don’t admit it no matter what, otherwise, you’ll really lose the chance to join the Inner Sect!”
Keira sighed. “It’s fine.”
“What do you an ‘it’s fine?!” Matias was completely frantic. “Your lifelong dream has been to join the
Inner Sect. How much hardship have you endured over these years for this? Jackson saw your
ambitions, that’s why he has been bullying you! How could you be so impulsive for us…?”
Impulsive?
Keira wasn’t impulsive.
Upon entering and seeing Nara’s state, she was indeed angry, but more than that, she was infuriated
by the past humiliations her sister suffered at the hands of
Jackson!
Seeing Nara, it was as if she was looking at her sister
back in the past!
Hadn’t her sister, before this day, suffered the sa fate ti and ti again?
Otherwise, how could Jackson have made those
remarks?
So in her fury, she struck him.
Now, she had no regrets. With the Sect Leader there, she couldn’t possibly get into trouble!
But Matias couldn’t understand her reasoning and continued to plead earnestly. “Rember what I
said, go to the Freeman Sect now and accuse of assaulting Jackson. When the ti cos, I’ll
insist that it was and take all the bla upon myself!”
Keira, however, didn’t move.
Instead, Lewis stepped forward.
Upon seeing him, Matias imdiately recognized him as Keera’s newly taken gigolo and said, “Talk to
her!”
Lewis ca over to Keira and said. “As a woman, how
could you
kick a man there?
Keira raised an eyebrow.
Matias also took a deep breath. “I’m not saying you can’t hit him, anything else is open to discussion,
but that part is clearly… if it’s damaged, our feud with the Gill family will truly escalate!”
Lewis nodded. “Next ti you want to do sothing like that, let do it.”
Matias was dumbfounded.
He looked incredulously at Lewis, his mouth twitching, about to say sothing, but Keira asked,
“Why?”
Lewis just curled his lips. “It’s quite filthy.”
Then he looked down and took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped the bloodstain on the leather
boots she was wearing today.
After wiping it off, he took a deep breath as if still
disgusted and then looked back at Matias. “Do you have any water?”
Matias was confused.
His mouth twitched, but Nara had already snapped out
of her shock. She imdiately nodded.
She then took a basin and entered the room, returning
shortly with so water.
She handed the water to Lewis.
Lewis took out his handkerchief, dipped it in the water, and once again carefully wiped Keira’s boots
clean.
Keira felt like her black leather boots were about to be
polished white!
Only then did he let go, still frowning in dissatisfaction.
Keira didn’t know what to say.
She pursed her lips, unable to help but pat him lightly. “That’s enough!”
Lewis finally stopped his motions.
Keira imdiately looked at Matias. “You were
deliberately hurt by Jackson, why didn’t you report it to the Freeman Sect?”
Matias sighed. “It’s no use, Jackson is from the direct lineage of the Gill family. Not to ntion how the
r
Freeman Sect would handle it, even the Gill family itself would send people to suppress this issue.”
He hung his head in disappointnt. “He’s from the second branch and colludes with Austin from the
first
branch. Lady Gill loves her third son the most, and as a result, she has always been biased toward
Jackson, so his status is very high within the family.”
He started worriedly, “Keera, you…
“Don’t ntion what you just said,” Keira said. “Never mind the fact that so many people saw earlier,
but considering your injury, how could you have kicked him? With your uninjured leg or your injured
one?”
Matias was speechless.
Keira patted his shoulder and then turned to look at
Nara.
After a mont, she slowly said, “The Freeman Sect has wronged you, and about that sect rule, I’ll
suggest to the Sect Leader to change it.”
If she wasn’t the senior sister, that would be one thing, but now being in that position, she felt a sense
of belonging to the sect, and so, of course, any
unreasonable rules needed to be anded.
Matias’s mouth twitched again, “Keera, when did you start to boast? You don’t need to comfort …
Mainly it’s about your wish to enter the Inner Sect. If you can let go and not join, it’s okay with …”
Keira looked again at Nara, observing the barren state of the ho, and couldn’t help but sigh. She
took out a stack of money and handed it to he., “Take this money.”
Nara imdiately waved her hand away and then reached out to grab the paper and pen.
However, upon touching her neck, she suddenly realized that her jade pendant, which had been
snatched by Jackson, hadn’t been returned yet!
Nara panicked instantly.
Her brother had said that she had been wearing that jade pendant when they found her, which might be
related to her background. If it were lost, wouldn’t she be unable to find her biological parents in the
future?
Nara’s eyes reddened in an instant.
Keira frowned, asking, “What’s wrong?”
anwhile.
At the Gill family residence.
Austin had been beaten so badly that his face was swollen and bruised. Feeling humiliated, he had
been staying at ho for a few days.
At this mont, Lady Gill hurried in from outside.
Seeing this, Austin couldn’t help but straighten up. “Mom, what’s the rush? Is there news about my
sister?”
As he ntioned his sister, Lady Gill’s footsteps faltered slightly.
A hint of sadness erged in both of their eyes…
Lady Gill said, “It’s news about your sister. We located the human traffickers from back then. They said
that when your sister was captured, she ca down with a fever. Fearing she would infect the other
children, they dumped her in Clance!”
