Chapter 5

"Are you a beggar? Always trying to snatch things from others?"

"You want to steal someone else's darling, and now you're trying to steal their watch too! How fucking cheap can you get?"

I punched Dane in the face with all my might, one blow after another.

Dane was such a wimp. After taking a few of my punches, the grown man actually started crying.

I grabbed his wrist, ready to snatch the watch from his hand.

Just as I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, my body was violently shoved again.

This time Serenity used all her strength, and my back slammed directly into the dining table.

A pot of scalding soup poured straight onto my back.

"Draven! Are you crazy? Get away from Dane."

As the boiling soup spilled on me, I rolled on the ground in agony.

The watch in my hand was crushed under Serenity's foot.

I heard Serenity comforting Dane.

"Don't be afraid, baby. I'm here. I'll always be by your side."

During all this, Serenity didn't even glance at me once.
