"You are an unfeeling brute!" Janiya couldn't help cursing him after she learned that he was grandma’s son, but it was not enough to satisfy her right.

"What are you talking about? Don't think you're Nigel’s wife that I won’t dare to beat you. If it weren't for you being a woman, I would have beat you already." The man said arrogantly with an iron rod in his hand. Although Janiya was angry and afraid, she refused to bow down to him.

She prayed that Nigel could come back sooner. They had a deal that he would come back to pick her up today, but why he didn’t come yet.

Janiya only felt that her back arched badly. She laid on the ground and didn’t dare to move. Every time she breathed, the pain would get worse, which made her couldn’t help but gasp. She looked at the man and said through clenched teeth, "Your mother gave birth to you, and now you try to beat her. What you are if not being a brute? "

Obviously, the man didn’t care about these cursing words. That was it, such a brassy man like him would never care. It was Janiya who underestimated how shameless he were.

"I don't want to beat her, but the old fart is disobedient. I am always cold and hungry, but you live in such a large yard without even split me a little money? Give me your money, I will leave right now. If you keep it from me, then I can only beat you. If you die, your property will be mine." With that, he rubbed the iron rod with his palm, as if he was ready to fight at any time.

"I have no money. Where can I get money for you? You just beat me to death." Grandma cried, her old body laid above Janiya, trying to protect her.

"Then I’m going rogue." With this, he picked up the iron rod again and was about to hit grandma. Janiya tried her best to lie on top of grandma. She was knocked unconscious by the sudden blow on her skull.

She just felt that her skull was going to explode, there was a roaring in her ears. She looked up at the man in front of her, her eyes blurred. She shook her head, then gradually got a clear look at the man in front. She felt that he was as terrible as a demon in this world.

The dark red blood was trickling down her hair, dripping on the floor. She looked at the blood and trembled. She couldn't imagine what to do if the stick hit grandma.

Nigel, why didn't you come ...

"How? Want to be beaten again?" With this, the man was about to take a second hit, another man next to him stopped him and said, "Boss, don't forget, we cannot beat this woman to death. After all, we are paid to do this."

He thought for a while, after all, the Nans family was powerful and respected. If something happened, he really couldn't afford it, so he put down the iron rod and said to grandma, "Give me the money and I'll leave immediately."

Grandma was crying out of breath. She was old, how could she beat this tall and strong man. Finally, under extreme duress and Janiya's comfort, she took out the passbook in her pocket, handed it to him, and said, "This is my last resort, you know the password. Just go, don't come again, we're quits."

"Grandma ... You can't give it to him. That's your pension." Janiya persuaded, she was lying on the floor, faint from weakness. The man took off at once after he got the passbook, ignoring if they were alive or dead.

Janiya only felt hot and thirsty, and gradually lost consciousness. Sometimes she saw herself as a child, sometimes her father. She mumbled, "Dad..."

Before she fell into a coma, she saw a figure running in from the yard, which gave her much gratification. He finally came, but she just couldn't hold it anymore ...

She felt light, a pair of strong arms picked her up gently. Then she was in darkness and fell into a heavy sleep.

The medical smell in the hospital was very strong, and the smell of life and death filled everyone’s nostrils, which made people feel depressed and sad.

Janiya didn't know how long she had slept. When she woke up again, it was exactly ten o’clock in the evening. It was in the beginning of autumn, outside the rain was falling. Her fingers twitched slightly because of the pain from her head. She felt that her hand has been tightly held by a pair of warm palms. She opened her eyes, but saw Nigel who was also looking at her. His eyes sparkled with unshed tears, which made she thought that she must have seen something else.

"Nigel..." She asked the man in front of her with doubt. Although he looked so unreal in the dark night, she could still remember the outline of his figure.

"Well, you finally woke up?" Nigel responded. He got up and turned on the lights, calling the specialist in the hospital to conduct a new round of examinations for Janiya. Fortunately, the results were good, but she had to rest in hospital for half a month. Nigel said thank you, then returned to the ward.

People outside the ward heard that Janiya was awake, then hurried to rush in to see her. But Nigel locked them out, he prohibited anyone from seeing Janiya on the grounds of recovery.

Janiya heard someone knocking on the door, then asked, "Is anyone here?"

"Leave them alone. You just rest." Nigel sat back to her side and continued, "Later Mammy Zhang will bring you dinner."

Didn’t know if it was her illusion, she felt that Nigel was more gentle with her. And this kind of softness was genuine, not acting, so she smiled slightly as response.

"The man who beat you, do you know who he is?" Nigel asked Janiya as he saw she was in good spirits.

Janiya thought of the man's face, then said, "He’s grandma's son."

Nigel stared at Janiya for a long time, finally said, "I know, I'll handle this." Then, he got up and left the ward. Cherish who leaned on the door overhearing almost fell to the floor as Nigel opened the door. She looked at the grim-faced Nigel and moved aside for him quickly, "Please."

Nigel gave her a look, said, "Help me take care of her."

"Okay, I’ll take good care of her. My brother is waiting for you outside." With this, she entered the ward swiftly. She felt calmer at the moment the door was closed.

It was said that did not easily provoke Nigel. If he happened to be angry, he might chop off your hands by himself! Thank god she had her brother outside, otherwise he really scared the hell out of her.

His expression just now was as terrible as killing somebody. Thinking about that now, she still trembled.
