Obsessed CEO Throws Himself at Me Chapter 414
“Don’t bother calling her again! We just need to settle this before Arielle arrives,” Jared instructed while charging toward their captors with a broom.
Henry, too, picked up a frying pan lying nearby and charged at them. It was two against six as the messy battle ensued.
Approximately ten minutes later, the duo had defeated all their enemies, except for one. “Come if you dare!” Jared challenged, with one foot still pressing against one of the unconscious masked men.
The last guy retreated a few steps and, with his fingers, whistled loudly.
Right then, Jared heard the sound of footsteps approaching
Both Henry and him stared in disbelief as they saw a dozen men appear from an alley, heading toward them.
Their number was not the biggest issue here. It was the bulky metal rods they were carrying that posed a problem.
“T-They’ve got backup! Shouldn’t we get help?” Henry choked out. The duo had only just defeated a batch of them; handling another wave now would be pushing it.
A single blow from those weapons was enough to kill someone.
Assessing that their depleted bodies stood no chance
against their enemies, Jared caved in. “I’ll block while you make the call.”
“Who do I call?”
“Harvey!”
“Okay, all right!” Henry started scrolling through his contacts frantically.
Meanwhile, Jared was already engaged in a fight with the front few men.
It was the sound of his broom being split into two by the enemy’s metal rod.
Jared retreated a few steps, using a table as cover. Then, he turned toward Henry, “Are you done yet? Hurry up!” he shouted anxiously.
Feeling pressured, Henry’s hands trembled even harder while searching for the phone number.
Just as he managed to spot Harvey’s contact, a metal rod came flying in his direction, which he instinctively evaded.
After a series of loud noises, Henry looked down and was horrified to see that his phone had been smashed into pieces.
“My phone!” He looked at Jared helplessly. “What are we going to do? Your phone’s outside and mine’s broken!”
“What else? We fight till the end!” Jared stated coldly. Without any external help, they only had themselves to rely on.
Resigned to their fate, Henry picked up the frying pan once more and joined his friend in the battle. But, before he could even strike any of them with his pan, the enemy had hit it away.
To make matters worse, the frying pan rebounded against the wall and landed on the back of his head. “Ahhh!” he screamed in pain. Then, he saw a blotch of black and fainted.
“Henry!” Jared shouted while running toward his friend. “Hey, Henry! Are you okay? Wake up!” he yelled repeatedly.
Yet, Henry remained unresponsive.
“You assholes!” Jared turned and glared viscously at the
group of men. His voice was unfeeling and cold when he questioned, “Who sent you here? Do you know who we are?”
Putting aside the Jupiters, Henry’s background alone should be enough to make them turn tail and run away. After all, he was the only son of the highest-ranking official in the city.
The enemy laughed coldly. “We’re only doing what we were paid to do. I don’t care who you are. Even if you’re the son of a royal family, we’re still going to beat you up today. Guys, get them!”
Upon command, the dozen over men started running toward them.
Right then, a female voice shouted from behind the group of men, “Wait!”
