Chapter 53 My Hands Are Talented Not Just for Piano, But for Punching âOlivia, I-â Mia started, hope flickering in her chest as Olivia stopped walking.
+8 Pearls But then she saw the group of roughâlooking men blocking Oliviaâs path, their intentions unmistakably malicious. Mia froze.
âOlivia?â
The leader of the group smirked, his greasy gaze sweeping over Olivia. âWell, well. We were just looking for you, you little brat.â
Olivia glanced at the men, clearly thugs, and remained utterly calm.
Mia, however, was visibly shaken. She instinctively stepped back, stammering, âOâOlivia... theyâre thugs!â One of the men sneered. âThugs? Youâve got a big mouth, little girl. Watch it, or you wonât live to regret it.â
Mia flinched, trembling like a leaf.
Olivia shot her a disdainful look. âWhy are you still here? Get lost already.â
âThis... this doesnât seem right. I canât just leave you alone!â Mia tried to steady her shaking voice, but her legs were about to give out.
Olivia rolled her eyes. âWhat are you staying here for? Comic relief?â
Mia was speechless. Iâm trying to be nice here!
âScram. Donât stand around being useless,â Olivia added impatiently. Though she wasnât fond of Mia, she wasnât about to let her get caught up in this mess.
âYeah, you brat, beat it. Weâre here for her, not you,â one of the thugs barked.
Mia hesitated for a moment, then steeled herself. âOlivia, wait for me. Iâll get help!â
She turned and ran, though not without stealing glances back, worry etched on her face.
âHelp? You think anyoneâs coming in time?â The leader scoffed. âWeâll be long gone before anyone shows 1. up.
Olivia remained unfazed as the thugâs gaze roved over her. His smirk deepened.
âThis girl doesnât look like much, but that figure... And those handsâlong and slender. Bet theyâre good at playing piano,â he sneered.
Olivia raised an eyebrow and replied nonchalantly, âNot just piano. My hands are also very talented at punching.â
Her remark sent the group of men into fits of laughter.
âListen to this one! A little twig like you, punching? Come on, sweetheart. Donât make this harder than it has to be. Weâre here to break your hands. Be a good girl and hold them out, and maybe weâll go easy on 1/2 11:11 Fri, Jan 3 & G B Chapter 53 My Hands Are Talented Not Just for Plan But for Punching you.â
48 Pearls Olivia sighed, her patience waning. âYou sure talk a lot. If youâre going to fight, then hurry up already. I donât have all day.â
The thugs were momentarily stunned by her boldness.
âOf all the cocky brats Iâve seen, you take the cake!â The leader barked out a curse and gestured for his men to move in.
But just as they were about to lunge, Ã figure darted in front of Olivia.
âYou okay?â Benjamin asked, his tone calm but his gaze deadly as he positioned himself protectively between Olivia and the thugs.
His sudden appearance shocked the group of men.
Olivia, however, raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. âWhat are you doing here?â
Benjamin ignored her question, his cold eyes fixed on the thugs.
âLeave now, or youâll regret it,â he said, his voice low and dangerous.
The leader snorted, stepping forward. âAnd who the hell are you? Think you can scare us off?â
Benjamin didnât respond. Instead, he rolled his shoulders, his knuckles cracking ominously. The thugs exchanged uneasy glances.
Olivia crossed her arms, watching the scene unfold with mild interest. Well, this should be entertaining.
