Always Been Yours Chapter 579
What the scar-faced man’s subordinate saw from the look shot at him had him silently lead two underlings to stand behind the bodyguard.
Then, when the moment was right, they seized Tessa.
“Let me go! Let go!” Tessa struggled as hard as she could upon being captured but failed to escape.
The bodyguard’s eyes went wide with fury. “Miss Tessa!”
Despite his wish to go save Tessa, he couldn’t afford to, for he was surrounded by other men.
Meanwhile, Tessa was being pinned to the ground with her right hand forcefully held away from her.
Her face went pale with terror as she watched the scar-faced man’s subordinate pull out a knife to stab toward her right hand.
“No! Don’t!”
This was the hand her entire career depended on, and it was vital to the realization of her dreams.
If she was crippled, what right would she have to be with Nicholas?
Not only that, but she had only just become the concertmaster…
“Please! Stop! I’ll give you anything you want, however much money you want! Please don’t ruin my hand!” A sob could be heard in her voice as she pleaded.
Her life had only just begun!
With tears welling up in her eyes, she struggled as if her life depended on it. However, the grip pinning her down was as strong as steel. She couldn’t even move an inch.
“Stop it!” When the bodyguard noticed what was happening to her, he was beyond himself with rage.
He was also too scared to even think about how angry his boss would be if Tessa’s hand was crippled
With a few hard kicks, he sent the people stopping him flying into the air, but he was soon surrounded once more.
“Darn it! F*ck off!”
With an angry roar, he fought harder and crueler.
Seeing that, the scar-faced man immediately barked, “Stop that man now!”
That order made more of his men fight harder against the bodyguard.
While this was happening, inside a black car parked nearby was Hayley.
She watched the entire scene play out through a pair of binoculars.
Her entire being was radiating with joy as she watched Tessa beg and plead while being pinned to the ground.
“Tessa, oh, Tessa. Finally, karma has found you…”
As she put down the binoculars, she let out an ear-piercing laugh that made her sound like a lunatic.
Meanwhile, Tessa trembled in fear as she looked up at the glinting knife.
“Don’t! Please, I’m begging you!” she cried in desperation,
Even so, the scar-faced man’s subordinate was not moved.
Just as disaster was about to break out, Nicholas arrived with Gregory in their car.
What he saw shocked him to the core.
“Edward, go!”
“Yes, sir!”
Too afraid of the consequences if he moved slowly, Edward charged straight out of the car and into the battlefield.
He had planned on going straight for Tessa.
However, the scar-faced man saw him and decided to personally stop him.
The two men clashed.
Even though Edward tried hard, the scar-faced man was skilled enough to ensure he couldn’t escape.
Inside the car, Gregory was scared stiff by the fighting outside.
His arms were wrapped around Nicholas as he panicked, “Daddy, Miss Tessa will be fine, right?”
“Don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to her.” Cold determination could be heard in Nicholas’ voice as he comforted Gregory. “Be a good boy and wait here for me. I’m going to rescue her now.”
Hearing that, Gregory immediately let go of him and said, “Hurry, Daddy. Go save Miss Tessa. Til behave.”
Nicholas nodded and stepped out of the car.
In the meantime, the scar-faced man had a bad feeling as he began to lose to Edward.
“Do it now!” In between blows at Edward, the scar-faced man turned and screamed at his subordinate
With a nod, the subordinate raised the knife higher and swung it down.
Edward and the bodyguard were horrified.
Tessa closed her eyes, overwhelmed by dejection.
It was at that moment when the tide of battle shifted.
When Nicholas saw the knife being swung down, a violent glint shimmered in his eyes, and he sent a kick flying at the knife’s wielder.
The kick was so strong that the man was sent flying away as he let out a shriek of pain.
Subconsciously, Tessa’s eyes snapped open when she heard the shriek. What she saw made her freeze in shock
“Am I dreaming?” She stared at Nicholas in disbelief as she spoke in a hoarse voice. “Nicholas, is that really you? Have you come to save me?”
The ragged state of Tessa made his heart throb with pain.
He pulled her up from the ground and wrapped her in a tight embrace. “You’re not dreaming. It’s me. I’ve come to save you. I’m sorry I was late.”
