“Mm. You should rest soon, so your body will recover quickly.”

“Mm.” Hesperus nodded. “You should rest too, so you have the energy to take care of us.”

“I’ll be going home then. Goodbye and good night, darling.”

“Bye, Mommy. Good night, Mommy.” Hesperus waved at Emmeline and delivered her a flying kiss.

Emmeline did not want to leave her son alone in the hospital, but if she did not leave, tears would start to fall.

Emmeline sniffled and left the room.

Earlier in the morning, Emmeline had taken her electric bicycle to the hospital.

She went to look for her electric bicycle in the bicycle parking lot.

It was already very late, and the night wind was chilly.

Tears started falling when she wore her helmet.

She wondered if it was because of the wind, or it was because she missed her dear little Star.

The electric bicycle went out of the hospital and traveled along the road.

It would be a half-hour ride back to the café.

In the morning, the electric bicycle would zip around the rush hour traffic. However, it was much lonelier at night, especially along this deserted patch.

In front of her was an intersection. She was just about to make a turn when a minivan went into the bicycle lane and blocked her way.

Emmeline was about to turn the bicycle when the door opened, and seven people stepped out.

She understood that she was about to be robbed.

She lifted the plastic visor of her helmet and said coldly, “I don’t carry cash with me in this day and age, and it’ll be easy to track you down if I wire the money to you. I only have a phone with me. You can have it, and leave me alone!”

The leader of the thugs said, “We’re not interested in your money, but we want your body! Come with us and give us some entertainment!”

“That’s a bit too much to ask for.” Emmeline removed her helmet and rested it on her bicycle. She took a step aside and stretched her wrists.

“Oh, so you don’t want to?” The men surrounded her.

“The heck I will!” Emmeline suddenly turned around and delivered a spinning kick.

Thud! Thud! The two men nearest to her got kicked in the face. They screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

“Not bad, chick!” the other men screamed rowdily.

“If you want some, come and get it!” Emmeline struck a pose and beckoned at the thugs.

Before she could attack, a black cloth sack covered her head from behind.

She felt a kick on the back of her knees, and she fell down kneeling.

Not far away, there was a sports car in a dark corner. The driver seat window slowly rolled up.

In the car, Alana cackled. “I know you’re a good fighter, Emmeline, but you’re not going to escape your fate tonight. Those guys will bring you to a motel and pleasure you like you’ve never been pleasured before. When the video is uploaded, you’ll be famous in Struyria for sleeping with seven men at once!”

Without her sight, Emmeline could not fight. She was about to be dragged into the minivan.

“Let me go, you b*stards!” Emmeline did her best to struggle. She kicked twice at full force.

The first kick sent a thug flying, but the other struck the curb.

“Ahh!” She felt her heel was nearly broken, and she fell sitting on the ground.

The thugs surrounded her once more.

“Let’s beat her up before she injures us again!”

“She’s such a fighter even when she can’t see!”

“That makes her more interested in bed. Get her, guys!”

Emmeline knew she could not escape now.

Suddenly, she heard several thuds. The thugs in front of her yelled in pain and fell to the ground.

Following that, a pair of arms hugged her tightly.
