Chapter 473
The rooftop fell into dead silence.
The bodyguards froze mid-action.
Mrs. Evans whirled around. "What did you just shout?"
Justin Evans narrowed his eyes. "Who is Belle?"
Jane Evans' throat tightened. Pain tore at her vocal cords. She opened her mouth. "Brother, I am…"
Jason Evans cut her off sharply. "A mere branch family member dares claim relation? How dare you call him 'brother'!"
Jane's words were brutally cut off.
She glared at Jason with fury.
Mrs. Evans frowned. "Jason, stripping her is too far. Choose another method."
Jason's face darkened, but he didn't dare argue. He lowered his voice. "Aunt, I can't swallow this anger! I lost my manhood! So many people saw in that operating room! My face is completely ruined! I want her to know the shame of being exposed too!"
Mrs. Evans tried to persuade him, but Justin spoke directly. "Mom, stay out of it."
He turned and barked at the bodyguards. "Why are you just standing there? Does the Evans family feed you for nothing? Can't you even handle one woman? Strip her now!"
The bodyguards immediately straightened their backs. "Yes, young master!"
Orders were everything.
The bodyguards advanced on Jane again.
Jane closed her eyes in despair.
She suddenly stood straight. She ripped off her jacket and threw it to the ground.
The bodyguards halted. "Young master, she's taking it off herself!"
Jason stared at her greedily, a lewd smile spreading across his face.
Justin sneered. "If you had been this obedient earlier, this could have been over. Stop stalling. Keep going!"
Jason excitedly raised his phone, ready to take nude photos.
Jane clenched her fists.
Her hands went to the hem of her short-sleeved shirt, as if she would pull it up the next second.
Beneath the shirt was only her underwear.
The onlookers wore triumphant, lustful smiles. Their vigilance slipped for just an instant.
At that moment!
Jane shoved the bodyguard in front of her and dashed toward the corner!
Justin roared in fury. "She's playing us! Grab her!"
The bodyguards rushed after her, but suddenly stopped.
Jane had picked up a rusty iron rod. She held it tightly with both hands, holding it horizontally in front of herself. She let out a hoarse cry, her eyes filled with resolve.
The iron rod was heavy and covered in rust. A direct hit would cause serious injury. Even a scrape could lead to a tetanus infection.
The bodyguards didn't dare approach.
Jane's hands trembled slightly, but she still held the weapon firmly.
Jason cursed loudly. "Useless! All of you are useless!"
Justin laughed coldly. "What's the hurry? Your third brother has your back."
He pushed through the crowd and walked forward, facing Jane directly.
He stared hard at her. "That rod is heavy, isn't it? But I'm not afraid! Go on, hit me here if you have the guts!"
Justin pointed at his own forehead. "Hit me right here. One blow will shatter my skull. Do you dare?"
Jane's pupils constricted. She hadn't expected Justin to be this crazy.
She aimed the iron rod at him.
Malice rose within her. She would hit anyone who came near! She would accept the consequences later! She would not be humiliated!
Jane swung the iron rod. It hit Justin's arm. Excruciating pain made his face change.
But he didn't stop advancing.
He had to subdue Jane today. He had to satisfy Jason. He needed to find his sister quickly!
Justin took another step closer. "Hit me! Aim for the head! If you don't have the nerve, then strip obediently!"
He slapped his own forehead hard again.
Mrs. Evans cried out in alarm. "Justin, stop this nonsense!"
"I'm not being nonsensical! She doesn't dare to hit me!" Justin yelled, taking another step.
Jane retreated in terror. She swung the rod hard toward Justin's head! She thought he would dodge.
Justin didn't even try to avoid it!
"Thud!"
The rod connected with his forehead.
Jane froze.
Blood slowly trickled from the corner of Justin's forehead.
At the last moment, her heart had softened, and she had diverted the blow…
Mrs. Evans screamed in furious rage. "You wretched thing! How dare you lay a hand on him!"
