NovelEnglishChapter 31
Evan lurked in the shadows, seething with rage.
If it weren't for his big brother's instruction to covertly protect Mom but not reveal himself unless absolutely
necessary, he would have dashed out there already.
Seeing those three bodyguards gaining on Elysia, Evan whipped out the darts he always carried and threw them
with precision.
The darts hit the mark, embedding in the thighs of the three men, who grunted and toppled to the ground in
unison.
Evan watched Elysia hail a cab and leave before he could relax.
Masking his face, he clenched his fists and drew the beaten bodyguards towards a clump of trees by the
roadside.
Striking from behind, he gave them a good thrashing, crackling and popping like firecrackers.
Dare to harm his precious Mom? Were they looking for an early grave?

Nola, having twisted her ankle, still hadn't managed to get up.
Evan hopped and skipped towards her yelling from afar, “Excuse me, ma'am, coming through, you're blocking
the way!”
Nola turned to see Evan sprinting towards her like a rocket.
If he hit her, wouldn't she be in a world of pain?
“Slow down! You little rascal, slow down... Ah!”
Evan pounced like a tiger, toppling Nola over and sending her flying several feet away.
Though small, he was trained in martial arts and tough as nails, with strength to spare.
Nola’s tears cfrom the pain, “You... you... Ahhh, whose kid is this? Where are the parents?”
Evan approached with feigned concern, “Oh dear, my apologies, ma’am, | didn't mean to. | was practicing my
sprint and couldn’t brake in time. Are you alright, ma'am?”
Ma'am?
Nola was livid, “You little brat, who are you calling ma'am?”
*Should | not call you ma'am? Would you prefer ‘auntie‘?”
Nola shrieked, “Call“miss!”

“I can’t call you ‘miss’; it's disrespectful at your age. Don’t be mad, ma’am; lethelp you
1. up.
Evan ‘helped’ Nola up, deliberately stepping on her injured hand.
Nola screamed, trying to fling Evan away, but he lay sprawled on top of her.
Conveniently, his hand landed on her sprained ankle.
With a ‘crack’, he pressed down, breaking Nola’s bone.
“Ah!” Nola fainted from the pain.
Evan then stood up, dusted off his hands, and snorted coldly at Nola. His mom always said women, the elderly,
and children were vulnerable and not to be bullied.
But swomen didn’t qualify as women at all.
Did he hit a woman? No.

Seeing a car approaching, Evan stuck his tongue out at the unconscious Nola and ran off.

Meanwhile, Elysia had just gotten home.
Elliot and Emmett had received Evan's message and were waiting for her at the bottom of their apartment
building.
Upon seeing her, the two boys ran over. “Mom!”
Elysia was surprised. “What are you two doing downstairs?”
The boys looked up, their brows furrowed at the sight of the slap mark on Elysia’s face.
Emmett’s eyes brimmed with tears, spinning in his sockets as he felt for his mom.
Elysia quickly scooped him up. “What's wrong, sweethearts?”
Elliot, fists clenched, countered, “Mom, what happened to your face?”
Elysia, embarrassed, fibbed, “I bumped into something on the way home; I'm fine, don’t worry about me.
The two little ones remained’silent, watching her.
Elysia swiftly changed the subject.
