Chapter 77
Chapter 77 The unforgiving rain continued to pour. Covered in blood, Naomi burst through the warehouse doors and staggered towards the main road. She paid the price for the ten minutes of indestructible power, and she became utterly exhausted. She had used up every bit of her strength to deal with those b*stards and barely had the strength to walk. She accidentally stepped on a rock and fell violently into a pile of mud while the cold rain continued to pour down on her frail body. Her vision began to blur, and her mind turned into mush. “No! I have to stay awake!”. Naomi bit down hard on her bottom lip and crawled her way towards the road. Was she really about to die in the middle of nowhere? Suddenly, the rain stopped falling on the top of her head, and a pair of white sneakers appeared in front of her eyes. Naomi‘s eyes shot up, and she was met with a face that she never expected to see. “Mister Long Legs?”
A young man was sheltering her with a transparent umbrella. The bright eyes and dashing smile on his face... were exactly the same as they were ten years ago! It was a face that appeared every time Naomi lost all hope. Was she close to death? Is that why she suddenly saw him? “Give me your hand. I‘ll take you to the hospital!” said the young man as he frowned and reached out and offered his hand to Naomi. “Mister Long Legs, help me...” Naomi mustered the little strength she had left to reach out her hand, but her body was no longer responding to her commands.

She passed out just as their fingers were about to touch.
As she fell into unconsciousness, a large hand appeared next to her.
Jack rushed in front of the young man, grabbed Naomi‘s hand, and swiftly picked her up in his arms.
“Uncle Jack? What are you doing here?” asked the young man as he stared at Jack with eyes widened with shock.
Jack did not respond. His thin lips were pressed into a cold, straight line as he focused all of his
attention on the young woman in his arms. His already cold eyes turned icy at the sight of Naomi covered in bruises and drenched in blood. Sean rushed over and covered the couple with an umbrella. “Sir, all the men that abducted Miss Naomi are unconscious in the warehouse. What should we do about them?”
“Execute them!” Jack ordered as he fired an icy glare at the warehouse.
His overwhelmingly savage fury scared both Sean and the young man frozen. “Yes, sir!” Sean responded quickly, but Jack was already walking towards the car with Naomi in his arms. His movements showed exceptional care and tenderness.
“Sean, what exactly is going on here?” asked the young man sternly as he grabbed onto Sean. “Mister Robin? What are you doing here?” Sean only noticed the young man‘s presence at that moment. Robin‘s cheeks flushed. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said, “Oh, I couldn‘t find a bus stop after I got off of my flight and ended up getting lost. So, who was that girl just now? Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“Don‘t worry about it. This is Mister Hough‘s personal business. I’ll send you back once I‘m done here.” Sean lightly tapped on Robin‘s shoulder, then turned and walked emotionlessly towards the warehouse. Naomi had a very long dream. She saw the young man in it, but she could only see his back. He was walking away from her, and she was frantically trying to reach him. However, no matter how quickly she ran, she could not catch up to the young man. No matter how loudly she called out for him, he did not turn around. “Mister Long Legs!” Naomi cried and opened her eyes, only to meet fluorescent hospital lights and the strong scent of disinfectant. “You‘re up?”
A man‘s deep voice, filled with rage, reached her ears. Naomi saw Jack sitting on an armchair from the corner of her eye, surrounded by a dark aura. “Why are you here?”
