Chapter 402
The two chefs were ready to go all in.
They had come this far.
There was no turning back now.
With sinister looks in their eyes, they raised the gleaming knife, planning to take Riley hostage first.
That way, the other chef could finish the job quickly.
Then they’d switch!
The chefs were massive and hulking-an intimidating sight.
Especially the one with the knife, who looked crazed.
Darius and Trevor yelled in fear, “Holy shit, Riley, they’re for real p>
Riley’s face was a little pale, too.
His usual bravado in fights relied on outnumbering people or using his family name to intimidate them. This was the first time he’d run into a maniac who didn’t know who he was.
As the knife came straight for his neck, a million self-defense lessons flashed through Riley’s mind.
But no matter what his brain commanded p>
His body was completely frozen!
Riley was so furious he could have burst.
Move, you stupid feet, kick him!
Move, you stupid hands, throw a punch!
Are you going to freeze up over a little crisis like this?
What were all those years of fighting lessons for? To prove I’m a clown?
Just as Riley thought his useless body, which refused to listen to his brain, was about to get him killed p>
Suddenly, an arm grabbed him and yanked him back.
A figure like a burning flame appeared before him.
Slender and graceful.
The red dress made the girl’s skin look as white as snow.
“Thwack p>
Riley only saw a pair of long, beautiful, pale legs flash before his eyes.
Then he heard a chef scream and stumble back two steps.
The girl’s high heel seemed to slice through the air with a whoosh
before kicking the knife wielding chef’s wrist hard.
“Ah p>
The chef cried out as the knife clattered to the ground.
Seeing this, the other man swung a punch.
The girl didn’t dodge. She grabbed his wrist and twisted it back.
At the same time, she drove her knee upward.
“Aaaah!” The chef’s eyes bulged in pain. He clutched his stomach, curling up on the
ground and screaming in agony.
Her movements were as smooth as flowing water.
The whole thing was fast, ruthless, and precise.
It all took less than a minute.
The two chefs were on the ground, unable to even get up.
Shielded behind her, Riley stared, stunned, at the girl standing before him.
Her long hair cascaded down, her profile was exquisitely refined, and er cold eyes were devoid of
emotion. She radiated an air of cool, commanding pride. fo
He faintly caught her cool, crisp scent.
As he watched p>
Riley’s breath hitched, and his heart began to pound wildly against his ribs.
Hailey was completely dumbfounded, her expression frozen. The hand holding her phone was trembling.
Her eyes were wide with disbelief.
When she snapped out of it, she turned to run.
“Stop p>
The tone was cool and bone-chilling.
Hailey’s legs went weak, and she froze on the spot.
From behind, she heard the click of high heels on the ground.
Each step felt like a blow to Hailey’s heart.
Then, Serena stopped in front of her.
Her long, raven-like lashes lowered as she took Hailey’s phone. Looking at the Still-recording screen, she
lazily lifted her gaze. “You like!
taking naked pictures so much p>
