Leo’s voice trembled with pain. He tried to stand up but his ribs were broken, so he couldn’t push.

Maja’s face turned serious, she looked at Leo who was still moaning on the ground, feeling very
annoyed.
The thugs didn’t waste any more time and reached out to grab her, but lan intercepted them mid–air.
Ian moved swiftly and decisively, twisting the thug’s arm and pushing him away.
“Mr. Raymond, be careful.”
There were five thugs and only one lan, all Maja could do was to protect herself as best she could.
However, before she could finish her sentence, she saw all the thugs lying on the ground, moaning in
pain.

Maja was a bit surprised, but she didn’t have time to say anything. She quickly went over to Leo
“Are you okay?”

piercing through flesh.

the dagger was originally aimed at her.
