Chapter 18 Joe Saved Her

That night, when Mia stepped outside, she immediately sensed something was amiss.

People around her seemed to be surreptitiously pointing at her, but whenever she looked their way, they would turn away, pretending nothing had happened.

She pursed her lips, about to head to the supermarket, when David’s call came through.

“Don’t go out, someone’s leaked your address online! Stay home, I’m coming to get you right now!” David’s voice was full of urgency, clearly signaling that the situation was grave.

Mia also looked sullen.

In such a short time, it would be impossible for anyone online to find her address, unless someone deliberately leaked it.

It wasn’t hard to guess who it might be.

Mia had no intention of challenging fate and turned to head back.

But at that moment, two shady-looking men stopped her.

Their eyes unabashedly roved over her body, “You’re the mistress, right? You do look exciting. How about having some

fun with us?” one of them leered.

Mia looked around, noticing people excitedly pulling out their phones to record, whispering to each other, but no one seemed willing to help.

She even heard words like “mistress” and “serves her right.”

Her eyes narrowed, and her fingers quickly tapped a specific spot on her phone.

“Get lost.”

Mia snapped at the two hoodlums.

But her scolding seemed to amuse them, even eliciting a laugh. “Don’t worry; though we can’t match Mr. Smith’s wallet, we won’t disappoint you physically.”

One sneered, reaching out to touch Mia’s face.

Quick as a flash, Mia pulled out her keys, disengaged a hidden mechanism, and revealed a sharp little blade, plunging it into the man’s palm.

He screamed in pain, blood pouring out.

“You damn witch!” he cursed, reaching out to grab Mia.

She was too fast for him, pulling out the blade from his hand and stabbing the other.

His companion realized what was happening and rushed forward, grabbing Mia’s wrist.

Bang!

Before Mia could react, a powerful kick hit the man’s chest, sending him flying.

Dizzy, she found herself caught in familiar arms.

“Joe?”

Mia gasped in surprise, looking at the man before her. Wasn’t he supposed to be on a business trip?

Joe’s face was cold as he ordered those behind him, “Take them to the police station after beating them up.”

Several tall and strong bodyguards emerged and moved quickly toward the two ruffians.

After a while, the hooligans howled.

Even though Joe had saved her, Mia’s expression didn’t soften. After all, if it weren’t for his past love, she wouldn’t have had to endure this humiliation.

She pulled away from Joe, intending to leave, but he blocked her path, his face grim. “Are you still going to be stubborn?”

The exposure of her address was a significant danger for Mia.

“My fiancée doesn’t need Mr. Smith’s concern.”

David panted, arriving at the scene, putting his arm around Mia, and addressing Joe.

Joe snorted, “Is this how you treat your fiancée?”

He couldn’t even suppress a Twitter trend. When had the Johnson Group become so useless?

David choked back a reply, tightening his grip on Mia’s hand, “No need for your concern.”

He then moved to leave with Mia.

“Mr. Smith…”

Jack, approached cautiously, noticing Joe’s dark expression. He whispered, “About this trending topic…”

Joe gave him a cool glance.

“I understand, I’ll have it removed right now!” Jack said quickly, rushing away to make a call.

Joe watched the retreating figures of Mia and David, his eyes narrowing.
