The Lucky Wife novel Chapter 552

“Nobody’s going near,” Tempest ordered demandingly.

“We can’t beat up the young master, but we can beat this fella up. Let’s go.” Then, more than ten people surrounded Tempest.

“F*ck!” Tempest cursed as he leaned his back against the wall as the punches from those men rained on him.

Jay slowly walked inside, going past a path made of wooden planks to see a row of rooms. Jay’s heart inexplicably started beating rapidly.

He pushed open the only door that was shut. On the bed was a woman with a thin figure. Before Jay could take a good look at her, she speedily hid under the covers.

Jay gulped before his heavy footsteps led him to the bedside.

He saw a lock of long hair sticking out of the covers. He was feeling indescribably nervous.

Jay cleared his throat before his deep and mesmerizing voice echoed in the room. “I won’t harm you. Please come out.”

The woman stuck her head out of the blanket. When Jay saw her face, he stumbled in shock.

Time had not erased the beauty of her youth, but her face appeared thin and shriveled, like a ghost.

The woman shed a tear before hiding under the covers once again.

Her body was seen jerking under the covers and Jay could hear her baby-like sobs. He was taken aback to realize that his reaction had hurt her feelings. He remorsefully said, “I’m sorry, I’m not afraid of you. I’m just feeling heartbroken for you.”

The woman stopped crying, and this time, her voice was heard from under the covers. “Child, just go.”

When she said the word ‘child’, it was not clear, but Jay’s eyes became watery.
