Chapter 169

The only thing Lola could do now was stall for more time and wait for her brother.

Yolanda casually leaned against the car and said, "Using the same old tricks will bring you down.You're not very intelligent, are you?"

"I may not be that smart but Harry must be an idiot to believe a wrench like you." Working in his firm,Harry sneezed. He egotistically thought to himself that Lola must be calling him bad names.

Offended by Lola's remarks about Harry, Yolanda snapped. "I won't let you badmouth Harry like that!"As she spoke, she tried to open the door of Lola's car.

Lola took the opportunity and immediately rolled up her car window. She locked herself safely inside.

Realizing the car was fully secure, Yolanda made a gesture to her men and ordered, "Bring me a brick!"

She glared at Lola, saying, "You think locking yourself in the car would keep you safe?" "We'll crack itopen and get you out!"

A man approached the car with a brick he picked up by the road. Yolanda quickly ordered, " Break thewindow open!"

She moved away and the man stepped in. Lola examined the situation. If the window shattered, shewould definitely get hurt and her face would be scarred by the shards of glass. Lola quickly opened thewindow in panic. "Let's not be rash."

Yolanda immediately grabbed her by the arms and dragged her out of the car. The men surrounded her

to keep her from escaping.

She needed to buy herself more time. "Yolanda, I know you want Harry. Well, you can have him!" Shecasually dusted herself off and tidied her clothes.

Yolanda got furious at her words. The fact that she had the audacity to give Harry away as if he wasinsignificant made her snap, "He was mine to begin with! You never had the right to give him away!"She gestured to the men to take action. "This woman is all yours now!"

The men moved closer. Lola straightened herself and firmly spat, "I dare you!"

Startled by her cold look and severe tone, the men paused.

They looked at each other tentatively, feeling uncertain.

Lola carefully evaluated the situation and continued bluffing, "My grandfather was the former vicepresident and my boyfriend is the current president!" She thought to herself, I'm sorry for using yourname, Thomas.

Yolanda laughed at her. "Don't listen to her bullshit. She's delusional. Take her away!"

The men knew Lola's words held some truth, but they weren't convinced that her boyfriend was thepresident.

One of the men grabbed Lola by the wrist and tried to pull her off the road. "Come on, girl! Let me takegood care of you!"

Lola was such an alluring woman with a hot temper. He was sure that she would be quite enjoyable.

"Let go of me! Damn you! If you dare touch me, I will chop you up and feed you to stray dogs!" Hervoice was muffled through his hand. A greasy hand that reeked of cigarettes covered her mouth. Shealmost threw up in disgust.

Where are you, Jordan! She thought desperately to herself.

Two men pressed her against the grass and started to strip her clothes off. Lola felt so disgusted, shestarted vomiting.

Her hands were held tight, and she couldn't cry for help.

She thought about Mike and how he treated her last time. Fear welled up in her chest.

Yolanda looked smugly down at Lola and enjoyed her distress. "You want to pick a fight with me? Goodfor you! Let's see who has the last laugh once these men are done with you!

You'll end up a dirty wrench and Harry won't like you anymore!"

Lola was still fighting back against the men. Her efforts were futile and tears streamed down her face.Who would show up now and help her? A man's cold face came to mind. Harry, where are you?

Where are you? Will you show up in time like before?

...

At last, several military cars pulled over by the Maserati. A dozen of soldiers dressed in military attirewalked out of the cars.

Jordan cast a harsh glance to the scene in the bushes. He noticed a woman on the ground trappedbeneath a man. The distressed half-naked woman was none other than his own sister!

Another woman with sunglasses saw them coming and moved to flee away from the scene.

Jordan raised his leg and kicked her right in the abdomen. She fell to the ground and held her stomachin great pain.

The soldiers behind Jordan saw him making a move and followed suit. They stepped up and joined thefight.

The men in the bushes were about to violate Lola, but realizing they were outnumbered, they panickedand scampered away. But Jordan's soldiers didn't give them a chance. They aggressively charged atthe fleeing scum.

One of the men was subdued in seconds. The rest of them quickly let go of Lola. Looking at his sister,Jordan shouted to his soldiers, "Stay back!"

The soldiers behind him paused, sensing their boss was dealing with something difficult. Jordan quicklytook off his coat and covered Lola with it. He lifted his shivering sister and cradled her in his arms.

What happened? The soldiers studied the woman in Jordan's arms. Her face was hidden by her long

hair, so they couldn't tell who she was.

"Gouge their eyes out! I will take full responsibility." Jordan's voice was shaking in rage. He ignored thecries for mercy behind him and stepped into Lola's car. With great care, he gently laid his sister downon the back seat.

Outraged, Jordan had a difficult time calming himself down.

He sat in the driver's seat and noticed his sister's phone was ringing. He tapped the speaker button.

"Where are you?" a deep male voice spoke. The heavy weight on Harry's shoulders lifted now that hiscall was finally answered.

In his office, Harry thought about Lola and started to worry that something had happened when hesneezed.

He tried to calm himself down and concentrated on his work, but he couldn't shake off the feeling thatsomething was wrong. After hesitating a while, he eventually dialed her number.

Not getting a response after calling her four times made him nervous.

Someone finally picked up on the fifth ring.

Jordan recognized the voice on the line and he started to feel angry again. "Where the hell were youwhen my sister needed you the most?" Jordan clutched the steering wheel tightly. He knew it wasirrational to blame this on Harry.

But still he wanted him to take full control of the situation and bring justice to those responsible for hissister's ordeal. He was Lola's brother, but Harry was her lover. It would be way more efficient that Harrypunished them for Lola. But if Harry failed to handle things the way he sought fit, he wouldn't let him offeither.

Harry sensed something wrong from Jordan's tone. Jordan was always a composed man who spokecalmly.

What was the reason for him to lose his cool? Had something happened to Lola? Harry stood up fromhis chair and grabbed his car keys. He walked out of his office in a rush.

"Where is she now?" he asked urgently. He seemed agitated.

"You need to get someone to clean up the mess at the crossroads. I'll be waiting for you at the militaryhospital." He couldn't send his sister to a regular hospital in her state.

Harry put down the phone and instructed Joey from the secretary division to clear up the mess like lasttime. Without any hesitation, he raced his car all the way to Jordan's army camp.

Jordan brought his shaky sister to his own quarters and called for the only female doctor on camp toexamine her.

He made the doctor sign a confidentiality agreement that made her promise to keep anything she sawor anyone she met to herself. He emphasized that she would face severe consequences otherwise.
