Still unwilling to give up, Melody asked stubbornly, “Can’t you beat her?”
Galen snorted indignantly.
“She’s just Benico’s disciple, not the master himself. I can knock her down in three moves!”
After all, Galen had won the championship at the national free fight tournament. That was precisely why the Hernandez family had chosen him to be Melody’s bodyguard, despite the steep price.
Melody breathed a sigh of relief. Since Galen was so confident, she felt at ease.
She held up the telescope once more and continued to observe the situation inside the cabin.
Lucinda had knocked down all of the thugs, who were trying to resist.
One of the men stood up and tried to attack her with a knife, but she nimbly caught him by the wrist and knocked him down once more.
Lucinda pinned his hands behind his back and kicked the back of his knee, forcing him to kneel.
“You call that a sneak attack? That’s hilarious!”
The kidnapper howled in pain and kept begging her for mercy.
Watching this scene from afar, Melody gritted her teeth angrily.
“Those losers are no match for her! Galen, get a move on! If you don’t kill her today, I’ll fire you!”
‘s
“On it.”
Galen rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush into the dilapidated cabin when his phone suddenly rang.
Upon glancing at the screen, his face fell.
“Our informant said that two groups of people just arrived at the foot of the mountain.
They’re led by Mr. Simmons and Mr. Roberts. We have to leave!”

“No way! We can’t leave her alive! I won’t leave until that bitch kneels down at my feet and begs me for mercy!” Melody stomped her foot stubbornly.
Galen had half a mind to just drag her away from here by force, but he decided to try to reason with her first.
“Think about it. Two of the most powerful men in town are headed this way. If they find us here, how are we going to explain ourselves? Miss Hernandez, we have to leave before it’s too late!”
Thinking about how much Cyrus cared for Lucinda, Melody only got angrier. She wished she could tear Lucinda to shreds with her bare hands.
But now wasn’t the time. She shot one last glare at the wooden cabin before reluctantly following Galen down the mountain path.
In the log cabin.
