Not Your Doormat Anymore novel Chapter 78

"Trust me."

Finally, Kourtney nodded. By then, the man had already walked up to us.

"How dare you mess with me? Believe it or not, I'll make sure you never walk out that door!"

I glanced behind him and snorted. "Is that it?"

"Get him! Beat him to death! I'll take full responsibility! Remember this. My name is Gavin Lewis! From now on, whenever you see me, walk the other way!"

At Gavin's signal, the group of burly men charged toward us. When Kourtney saw that, she trembled. "Please don't. I'll apologize. Please don't hurt him…"

"Apologize?" Gavin looked at us and sneered. "What's the point of that? Unless you come over and sleep with me, he won't be getting out of here!"

"Stay put." I patted Kourtney's head and rolled my wrists.

"It's been a while since I fought. Let me use you all as practice."

When I was young, my family had me learn martial arts for self-defense so I could protect myself from kidnappers. Later, when I said I wanted to study medicine, Dad hired an expert to teach me how to handle hospital disputes and confrontations.

Although I had trained for years, I never really had the chance to put my skills to use until now. These bald men looked intimidating, but they didn't have any martial arts skills.

Within just a few minutes, they were all sprawled out on the floor. Upon seeing that, Gavin no longer acted arrogant. He was utterly shocked.

"You…"

Gavin's legs were trembling as he stuttered, "P-Please don't hit me. My name is Gavin Lewis, and my father is—"

"You're Gavin Lewis?" With that, I slapped him.

Gavin clutched his cheek. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bump into you. Please let me go! I'll apologize. Just please don't hit me anymore. I beg you."

He was more cowardly than I was. Once the tables had turned, he dropped to his knees without hesitation.
