Chapter 1052

Chapter 1052:

The man, caught off guard, cursed under his breath, his face twisting with anger. He stepped forward as though to retaliate but froze when his gaze landed on Madisyn’s striking, foreign features.

“Well, well, a beauty from Lorpond. You want to play the hero?”

His tone dripped with condescension as he adjusted his collar, his eyes shamelessly roving over Madisyn. “Do you even know who I am?”

Under the weight of the man’s lecherous gaze, Madisyn’s expression hardened, her demeanor turning icy as she prepared to leave with Albertine.

“Did I say you could leave?” The man sneered, displeasure etched into every word.

Madisyn met his gaze, her face an unreadable mask. “And what do you want?”

“What do I want? I want you to save her and trade yourself for her.”

Albertine, who had been paralyzed by fear, finally found her voice. “Alan, stop! She’s an honored guest of the Vettel family. Are you looking for trouble?”

To her astonishment, Alan Davis let out an arrogant laugh, showing no hint of apology. “An honored guest? Relax. I’m not planning to kill her. She’ll still be the Vettel family’s precious guest after tonight. You are a member of the Vettel family, and yet here you are, in my grasp.”

“She’s not like me. She’s important!” Albertine’s cheeks flushed with rage and fear.

Two days earlier, Albertine had angered her father and Ailyn with her behavior in front of Dr. Mia, leading to her being offered up to Alan as a bargaining chip. If Dr. Mia were hurt because of her and the treatment was postponed, her father and Ailyn would punish her far more harshly than simply handing her over to Alan.

“Enough. I’m in a good mood tonight. I’ll spare you the trouble of serving me. Boys, take this woman from Lorpond away.”

At his command, four burly bodyguards emerged from the shadows of the corridor.

Startled, Albertine quickly urged Madisyn, “Miss Johns, run! I’ll hold them off.”

“No need.” Madisyn’s voice was steady as she placed Albertine against the wall. With swift, precise movements, she intercepted the first bodyguard, landing a sharp kick to his knee.

Although they were much larger, the four bodyguards couldn’t overpower the slender Madisyn. Alan was stunned by her combat skills and calm composure, and instead of feeling threatened, his desire for her only grew stronger.

Grinning with eager anticipation, he prepared to dive into the fray and capture Madisyn himself. But before he could make his move, a powerful force struck him from behind. He couldn’t react quickly enough, and in an instant, Andrew had him pinned to the floor, his limbs contorted painfully.

Madisyn had just finished with the last bodyguard. Hearing the noise behind her, she turned around and spotted Andrew, her cold, indifferent expression softening for a brief moment. “Andrew.”
