Chapter 575 “I’m Here to Support My Child ‘Not much!” Nancy didn’t want anyone to see her vulnerable side, so she immediately turned her head and deliberately used her hair to cover up.
‘It’s swollen, but it’s nothing!” Keith carefully held her chin, pushed aside her hair, and observed with great concern. His eyes were filled with compassion.
Who could have imagined that in just a few days, the once fiery and hot- tempered girl had become this pitiful figure?
‘Who did this to you?’ The man’s eyebrows furrowed in anger, as if his most cherished toy had been broken, and he had the intention of tearing the culprit to pieces.
’ No one. I accidentally bumped into something.” Nancy moved away from the man’s hand and turned her back.
Like Shirley, she was a strong-willed woman. Even if she was covered in injuries, she still wanted to show an indifferent appearance.
Keith couldn’t be easily fooled. He held Nancy’s hand and said in a deep voice, “We’re going back.”
‘Go back? Go back to the detention center? I just got out; I don’t want to go back. It’s hell, not a place for humans!” Nancy struggled with all her might. Finally, under her strong facade, a trace of fear appeared.
She hadn’t been in the detention center for long, but in these short few days, she was bullied almost every day by the female inmates in the same cell. They would pull her hair or spit on her, and even slap her.
It’s not that she didn’t fight back, but the more she resisted, the more severe the beatings became. Just like today, it was the worst beating she had ever received, and her face was bruised!
Therefore, she refused to go back to that nightmarish place, no matter what!
‘Of course, we have to go back!” Keith’s tone was firm as he grabbed Nancy’s shoulder, “Woman, show your spirit. Whoever hit you, you hit them back. With me backing you up, what are you afraid of?”
“You…” Nancy’s eyes turned red as she looked at the man, feeling somewhat surprised.
“What about me? Could it be that I said something wrong? Miss Parker, the precious one, do you want to let it go after being beaten like this?” Keith angrily retorted.
In his eyes, Nancy was like his daughter. He could tease her normally, but if someone else dared to touch a hair on her, he wouldn’t let them off!
Nancy saw an unprecedented seriousness in Keith’s eyes. Her heart inexplicably gained confidence, and she clenched her fists. “You’re right, I cant let people bully me for no reason.”
The two of them returned to the detention center.
Keith used some connections and easily arrived at the entrance of the cell where Nancy had been before, with the guidance of the prison guard.
‘Go in. The surveillance in the cell is broken. I’ll go fix it. It’ll take about thirty minutes,” the prison guard told Keith and Nancy.
“Thank you, beautiful police officer Shirley. Heart.” Keith put on his signature smile and made a heart gesture to show his gratitude.
“You’re… You’re welcome.” The prison guard blushed shyly, lowered her head, and walked away.
Nancy couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “How embarrassing.”
She gently pushed open the door of the cell and walked in, with Keith closely following behind.
“Who’s there?”
The five female inmates who were awaiting trial were sleeping. When they heard the door opening, they immediately became alert and sat up.
Since the lights were off, they could only see rough outlines.
‘How was your sleep, my roommates?” Nancy crossed her arms, sneered coldly, and walked step by step toward them.
‘Cell 29, the delicate Miss?” One of the fierce female inmates suddenly became lively, slapped her thigh, and laughed. “I heard that someone bailed you out. Why did you come back? It’s just in time. My shoulders are sore.
Come and give me a massage.”
‘You complain about your waist or legs every day. Let me help you with that,” Nancy said, without hesitation, she slapped the fierce inmate across the face.
‘You… You… How dare you hit me?” The fierce inmate was dumbfounded, touching her chubby cheek in disbelief, looking at Nancy.
“What’s wrong with hitting you? Not only will I hit you, but I will also kick you, just like how you kicked me,” Nancy said fiercely, and viciously kicked the fierce inmate.
The fierce inmate stumbled and said to the other female inmates, “What are you waiting for? Attack!”
However, the other female inmates trembled and huddled together, looking at the tall man behind Nancy.
“Let’s see who dares.” Keith calmly lit a cigarette. The faint light illuminated his handsome and wicked face, and his aura alone was enough to intimidate these women, even without saying or doing anything.
‘Who the fuck are you?” The fierce inmate also noticed Keith and asked with an unfriendly tone.
She was a big sister in the underworld, and she had shed blood before, so she wasn’t afraid.
‘Me?” Keith took a deep drag of his cigarette, his smile seemed ambiguous. ’I’m here to support my child. So… if you’re smart, you’ll take a beating quietly.’
‘My child?” The fierce inmate lost patience, her face full of muscles clenched her fist, ready to fight back.
However, when she saw Keith’s face clearly under the dim light, she immediately looked as if she had seen a ghost and sat on the ground.
“You… You… You’re Mr. Guerra?”
The Guerra family also had some shady business, and the fierce inmate had come across Keith once before. His handsome face had left a deep impression on her.
“That’s right.” Keith nodded.
“Yes, I’m sorry, Mr. Guerra. I didn’t know that number 29 was your person. If I had known, I would have taken care of her and given her shoulder
massages and leg rubs. Mr. Guerra, I’m sorry, I beg you to forgive me…” The fierce inmate was so scared that she kowtowed to Keith.
She wasn’t afraid of going to jail, but she was afraid of offending the Guerra family. If she offended them, her connections would be severed after she got out, and her family would be implicated. The consequences were unimaginable.
“You didn’t hurt me. Why are you apologizing to me?” Keith arrogantly smoked his cigarette, a smile on his lips, but his eyes were chilling.
“Yes, I’m sorry, number 29.1 was blind and caused trouble for you. I apologize. I’m sorry. Please forgive me!” The fierce inmate had sharp eyes and kowtowed to Nancy.
The other female inmates followed suit and apologized to Nancy.
Nancy’s face remained expressionless as she said coldly, “You don’t have to apologize to me because I will never forgive you. All the bullying you did to me, I will return it to you.”
After speaking, she slapped the fierce inmate across the face again, gradually transferring all the pain she had endured back to them.
“Ah, spare us, we won’t dare anymore, spare us!”
The other female inmates begged for mercy, their crying voices echoing throughout the detention center.
Finally, Nancy finished her retaliation and felt exhausted. She turned to Keith and said, “Supporter, I feel satisfied. Let’s go.”
“All right!” Keith snapped his fingers and opened the door courteously for Nancy.
The female inmates were completely dumbfounded… If they had known, they wouldn’t have provoked this Buddha-like figure!
