Chapter 4: Rescue

I tore it right off.
Seeing me like this, my stepmother immediately said sharply,?“Luna, you gave birth to a bastard child! Peter will never want you!”
Only if I broke off the engagement would Shana be able to marry into Peter’s family. Since they are the one who wanted something from me, we’d just dawdle and see who was more urgent.
“Heh!” I sneered and said sarcastically,?“Only people like you would fight for someone like Peter. My mother’s inheritance will never be given to you!”
With that, I turned and walked out.
My two obedient babies saw me coming out. They comforted me.?“Mommy, don’t be angry because of bad people.”
I smiled and then rubbed their cheeks.?“How about a strawberry dessert tonight?”
“Yay!”?The two little fellows cheered.
By the time I got the two kids back to Kamel apartment and drove outside to buy strawberry ice cream, I suddenly saw two men skulking around at the end of the street.
They kept looking back, and in their hands they carried a little boy.
The boy’s hands were tied and his mouth was covered. He could only struggle with all his might.
My heart ached for no reason. I subconsciously shouted,?“What are you two doing?!”
When the two criminals heard that, they turned around and quickly ran.
However, they couldn’t outrun me. For some reason, my body had become abnormal over the past five years, so it only took me five seconds to knock them out.
I was about to check on the boy when a tall man suddenly rushed over.
Without warning, he snatched the little boy from my hands and held him in his arms. I hadn’t even gotten a good look at the boy.
“You’re his father?”?I asked when the child didn’t struggle.
“Who are you?”?The man’s voice was low and his tone was unfriendly.
He kept protecting the boy in his arms, so that I could only see the boy’s short hair but not his face.
After helping him save his child, he was still so unfriendly. I started to lose my temper. I leaned against the wall by the side of the street and asked,?“The child is about to be kidnapped by criminals. What kind of a father are you?”
I was leaning against the wall because I had expended a lot of energy chasing after the criminal. With my current physique, my explosive power was very good, but the side effects were also very obvious, just like how I am extremely weak right now. But I couldn’t show any weaknesses in front of this rude fellow.
Perhaps because the way I leaned against the wall was a bit seductive, and revealed my impressive figure, the man’s Adam’s apple visibly moved. However, he still retorted,?“What kind of father I am is not up to you to judge!”
“Ha, egomaniac.”
“What did you say?”?The man was obviously angered. He took two steps closer and the smell of tobacco hit my face.
I didn’t expect to be treated like this after doing something good. I didn’t back down at all and stared straight into his eyes and enunciated every word clearly,?“Egomaniac.”
We stared at each other, unwilling to be outdone. The distance between us was only about a centimeter. I could see the disdain, doubt, and anger in his eyes.
I know that look. It’s the kind of look a man gets when he sees a female they are interested in. It’s obvious that he is lusting for me.
Was he crazy? He actually couldn’t control his urges towards the woman that he was hating just a second ago?
But he quickly reined in his gaze. He looked at me for a few seconds, then turned coldly to the boy.?“Let’s go.”
I rolled my eyes and walked slowly to buy my daughters strawberry ice cream cones.
But I didn’t expect to meet that annoying egomaniac again that night.
