To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)
Chapter 1283 Bow to You? Dream On!

There was no way Zack would allow anything bad to happen to Janet. He broke free of the two men holding him back and rushed toward her. Then, he shoved the man who tried to sexually assault her. "Janet, don't be scared!" He quickly pulled her into his arms and backed away.

The man was infuriated. He drew a dagger and pointed it at Zack. "You're courting death, aren't you? But you're at the wrong place. No one would bat an eye even if I killed you here!" Zack stared at him fearlessly. "Isn't money all you want? I'll pay you. Let us go."

"I wanted money at first, but I have changed my mind. I want the woman now!" The man was incandescent because no one had the audacity to challenge him like Zack.

Janet clutched onto Zack tightly in fear. "Zack, you should go. Don't mind me."

"Nonsense!" He turned around to look at her. How could he possibly leave her behind?

"Leave that woman behind and bow to me for forgiveness, and I might forgive you," the man demanded as he walked toward Zack.

Zack regretted not learning martial arts more enthusiastically when he was taking lessons with Jenny. If he did, he would have been strong enough to fight back. "I'd advise you to think before you act. We're living under the rule of law." He attempted to calm his opponent.

However, the hooligans never held any regard for the law. "It's the rule of law for an average man like you. But for us, it's a dog-eat-dog world." To them, the law existed to be broken. The man in the lead was backed by the Britt family, one of the Ten Elites in Bardoff City, and that fueled his arrogance. Zack, the upper-middle-class guy, was not to be taken seriously.

Zack fell silent, knowing that nothing he said would be of help. Instead, he tilted his head and whispered in Janet's ear, "When I charge at them, you'll take the chance to escape!"

"Zack!" She shook her head. She couldn't make that risky move.

Still, Zack ignored her worries. "Be good. When you're out, tell Gilbert to come save me."

Her eyes turned misty. She wondered, "Would help come in time?"

The man stood in front of Zack with the dagger in hand and a grin on his face. "So? Have you made your decision?"

Zack smirked at the man and gave him a surprise punch, much to the latter's disbelief. "Bow to you? Dream on!" Next, he roared at Janet, "Janet, run!"

He moved fast, and Janet was well-prepared too. She knew that she would be an obstacle to him if she stayed. Therefore, she chose to run and look for Gilbert. At least, they'd stand a chance against that

man.

She reached the door while everyone in the room was momentarily stunned by the attack. Still, she underestimated the capability of the men running the club. She opened the door to replace two bodyguards staring frostily at her.

"I'm going all out!" Zack growled as he locked the man in his arms and went for the door.

The man, boiling in rage, raised the dagger and plunged it into Zack's abdomen. "All out? I'll kill you."
