Sienna Thornton was dragged away by several thugs.
Melinda Linton collapsed to the ground in tears.
Felix and his son stood helplessly to the side like a pair of cowards. It was Jenna Raines who tried to rush up with a kitchen knife, but her efforts were futile against the many, and after just a few swings, the thugs left to guard easily forced her back.
Felix Raines had a long face, looking like a pickled bitter melon left for a year, sighing deeply. He wasn't worried about Sienna being violated by the village chief's foolish son that night, he was lamenting the loss of the huge sum that was supposed to be his by tomorrow.
Thinking about that million shining like white blossoms, he gathered a bit of courage, took a crumpled cigarette pack to the front door, took out two cigarettes to flatteringly light them for the two thugs guarding the door. He hadn't even spoken when one of them harshly warned him: "If you keep babbling, we'll break your son's legs!"
