He touched his chin. “I ‘m not making an exception. I’m just repaying the favor.”
Bethan bit her lips. Her mind was moving fast.
When she was still studying, Liam was already a famous person. He has been the gang leader for many years. The person who had done him a favor and helped him should not be after he became famous, but before.
In the end, Bethan narrowed her eyes and filtered through in her mind. Old Mr. Walter has once helped Liam out when he was down. The reason why the Walters could monopolize the business trade in Sea City had to do with Liam.
At that thought, Bethan bit her lips. “Old Mr. Walter is trying to exchange a life for his daughter’s death, is that it?”
Liam narrowed his eyes. “You know quite a lot.”
Then, he turned to his men by the side and waved his large hands. “Do it. The earlier we get rid of this woman who knows too much the better.”
Liam’s men looked at each other, then they smiled and said something in Liam’s ears.
Liam smiled. “That’s fine. As long as you have fun.”
Once they got his approval, Liam’s men took strong alcoholic drinks out of nowhere and force fed Bethan.
Bethan could not take alcohol. She instinctively tried to struggle and avoid, but she was tied. There was nowhere for her to hide.
Soon after, her entire body was as wet, as if she was just fished out from the barrel of wine.
Her face and body were covered in alcohol.
The alcohol stung her freshly cut wound on her leg. After dumping all the alcohol on her, the men surrounded her. They pinched her face and caressed her head. “Hide, go on, I dare you! “
Bethan bit her lips and closed her eyes.
She was afraid that she might not survive the night.
The necklace on her neck was not switched on. Nigel would not know about this.
Gwen was drunk.
Theo has not been in contact with her since that morning.
Brettley…
Even at that moment, she was still thinking about Brettley.
He would not even know about this. Also, even if he knew, he would not save her.
At that thought, tears fell uncontrollably.
She did not want to die. At least, not before finding a cure for Nigel. She did not want to die!
However, what could she do at that moment?
Liam was repaying a favor. He did not want money. What else could she use to bargain with him?
There was nothing.
Bethan helplessly closed her eyes. Perhaps, this was fated…
Bang!
Just when the men were about to touch Bethan with their dirty hands, a loud sound came from the outside of the abandoned factory.
Liam suddenly stood up. “Everyone, stop!”
The men immediately stopped what they were doing. “Boss, what is it?”
“That sound… something is not right! “
Liam furrowed his brows. He wanted to say something else when a black Hummer crashed into the abandoned factory.
The driver was no other than the gang leader of Sea City’s second-largest gang, Luke Jones!
Next to him in the passenger seat was Brettley with a cold gaze.
Once the black Hummer crashed into the abandoned factory, dozens of men followed and swarmed into the abandoned factory.
Liam was stunned. He came to a realization that he was being ambushed by another gang!
He wanted to immediately call forth his men, but he realized that when his men were force -feeding Bethan alcohol, they drank some too.
At that moment, all of them were pretty drunk. The only sober one there was him!
“Liam, are you still trying to put up a fight?”
The black Hummer came to a stop and Luke came down from the car. He sneered at Liam.
“Did you think that just because you were dealing with a woman, you did not need to bring so many men with you? You never expected that we would be waiting in the dark, right?”
Liam furrowed his brows. He glared at him coldly. “
How did you know I was here?”
Luke sneered, “Mr. Morrison can’t contact his friend, so he thought that something must have happened to her.
“His friend just offended the Walter family today, while you are the Walters’ b*tch. Of course, I had to come looking for you.”
Liam squinted his eyes and subconsciously glanced over at Brettley.
Brettley did not even bother about the fight between the two gangs.
He walked over to Bethan with a complicated gaze.
Seeing how she was injured and shivering after being drenched in alcohol. A hint of heartbreak flashed across his eyes.
He took his jacket off and gently put it on Bethan. He carefully cut off the rope on her body.
“Brettley…”
Bethan has been force fed too much alcohol. She was already dizzy. She grabbed onto his arm intoxicatedly. “Didn’t you say that you won’t make me drink any more. You said that I did not have to drink on your behalf anymore. Why did you not keep your word? I hate you.”
Her voice was hazy.
Brettley pursed his lips and tightly hugged her in his arms. “Yes, I broke my promise.”
Bethan leaned on his arm and gently muttered, “How long would it take for you to fall in love with me?”
Brettley shuddered a little.
Suddenly, he had a flashback to the year that he just got married to Bethan Peterson.
That year, they just got married. She insisted on seeing the outside world with him and foolishly drank on his behalf.
Later on, she also hugged his arm that way drunkenly and asked him the same question, “How long would it take for you to fall in love with me?”
Her demeanor, the tone of her voice was almost the same as Bethan, who was in his arms at that moment.
Brettley took a deep breath. He gently touched her lips. “How great would it be if you were her…”
The abandoned factor was in total chaos.
Luke was getting his men to tie Liam up while he turned around to look at Brettley who was carrying Bethan.
Brettley’s tall figure headed toward the entrance of the factory slowly.
Luke furrowed his brows. “Brettley, are you just leaving like that?”
Brettley stopped in his tracks. “Is there anything else?”
“Say,”
Luke laughed a little. He lit a cigarette in his mouth and said in a thuggish manner, “You did me a huge favor by letting me capture Liam. Aren’t you going to ask me for anything else?”
“No need.”
Brettley took a deep breath. He lowered his head and looked at Bethan, who was shivering in his arms. “I came here just for her.”
