Chapter 93
Cherished By Seven Sisters
âYou piece of sh*t! A manâs hands should be used to protect women, not hit them,â Emrys thundered.
âWho the f*ck are you? How is my reprimanding of my wife and child any of your business?â
Briefly stunned, the man subsequently picked up a bench and threw it at Emrys ferociously.
Unexpectedly, instead of dodging, Emrys intercepted the bench and swung it back in the manâs direction.
âHow can you bring yourself to strike your own wife and child? Youâre not a man at all. Iâm going to teach you a lesson!â
As Emrys slammed the bench onto the man, the latter howled like a pitiful dog. It wasnât until the bench cracked into pieces that the former finally stopped.
âF*ck! Just you wait! Also, the two of you better not think that you can hide from me. Iâm going to come back real soon!â
As the man hobbled out of the slums, it was clear from his scathing words that he was going off to get reinforcements.
Calming himself down, Emrys turned to the woman and asked, âMaâam, what in the world happened?â
The woman sobbed for a while before relating her predicament to him.
It turned out that the man was indeed her husband and Nancyâs father, except he was anything but a good person. All he did every day was drink and get into fights, typical of a local hoodlum.
Every time he finished drinking or was in a bad mood, he would assault the motherâdaughter duo upon coming home.
The woman had long wanted a divorce but would always end up being punched and kicked whenever she broached the topic. Sometimes, her daughter would also have to suffer along with her.
Left without a choice, the woman moved away secretly to protect her daughter from the traumatic environment. Unfortunately, the man always managed to track them down every timeâ she did so, There was just no escape for them.
The womanâs story triggered a sense of sympathy from Emrys. This man is truly a b*stard!
âMaâam, havenât you considered calling the police?â he asked.

Yet, the moment they left, he did so with even greater intensity and threatened to kill us if I called them again..
âGiven that my daughter is still a child, Iâm really worried about her getting hurt. Thatâs why I didnât dare call the police again and chose to keep moving to avoid that b*stard.
âSadly, heâs just like an evil demon. He would find us every time and beat us up when he did. If it wasnât for you today, Dr. Lund, Iâm afraid Nancy and I wouldâveâ¦â
Sobbing as she spoke, the woman would tremble in fear every time she mentioned her husband.-
Emrys, with a cold glint in his eyes, slammed his fist against the door frame and declared, âDonât worry, Maâam. Now that Iâm made aware of your situation, I wonât sit idly by and watch. I, Emrys Lund, will resolve your problem if the police are unable to do so.â
âNo!â
She grabbed him by the arm and explained fearfully, âThat man is nothing but a scoundrel. Wherever he goes, heâs always able to fit in with local gangsters. Now that he has gone to seek their help, you have to leave immediately. Dr. Lund, I donât want you to be dragged into this.â
While speaking, she tried to push him away, but he simply refused to budge.
âWhy are you such a fool, Dr. Lund? This is a fate that both of us canât escape but has nothing to do with you at all. Why do you insist on staying and suffering with us?â she lamented in tears.
Why?

After comforting the little girl, he turned toward the woman and said, âMaâam, stay inside the house with Nancy, and donât come out regardless of what happens. Do you understand?â
With that, he brought a bench with him outside and closed the door.
