To the Love of My Life

Chapter 332: 332: Blessing in Disguise (22)

Hearing their leader’s words, the other men chuckled sinisterly before backing away.

The leader stared at Ruby’s face with a grin, then started to unbuckle his belt.

Ruby heard the sound of the buckle and, out of instinct, leaned back against the dirty, decrepit wall. Then she saw the man charge towards her.

She wanted to retreat further, but there was nowhere to go.

She tried to escape, but her wrists and ankles were tied up. There was no way for her to flee.

Ruby could only watch as the man lunged towards her.

The feeling of disgust overwhelmed her even before he touched her skin. Just his attempt to remove her coat was enough.

She knew that resisting would only make things worse for her. Ruby wasn’t sure where Steve Burton was or if he could even make it in time to save her. Even if she ignored the fact that she wanted to maintain her purity for her upcoming marriage to Steve, she simply couldn’t accept the touch of this disgusting stranger.

Ruby was nervous, but somehow this tension gave her a moment of calm determination.

She could only resist once, and it had to be a sudden, decisive move.

Otherwise, once these men were on guard, she would have no chance to fight back.

So, she stared straight at the man as he approached her. Although her legs were tied, she waited for the moment when his hands braced on either side of her. Then, she swiftly raised her knees and smashed them viciously into the man’s groin.

It was an attack that Steve had taught her years ago, aimed at a man’s most vulnerable area.

As expected, the man’s excited face turned pale as he let out a blood-curdling scream and doubled over in pain.

The other men, who had been waiting nearby, rushed over upon hearing the agonizing cry.

“Boss, boss, what happened?”

“That bitch…” the leader groaned, unable to even finish his sentence as he held his lower body and trembled.

Another man stormed over to Ruby, his anger boiling over. He raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face: “You filthy woman, how dare you fight back?”

The slap left Ruby’s face stinging, and her head was jerked to one side. The next moment, she was dragged from the wall and thrown to the side.

The phone she had hidden behind her back was now exposed to everyone.

One of the men picked up the phone and saw that it was still on a call. His expression chilled and, without hesitation, he ended the call and threw the phone violently against the wall: “Damn, this bitch has already called for help!”

“Son of a bitch…” The man who had slapped Ruby stormed toward her and kicked her ruthlessly in the stomach: “Tired of living, are you? Trying to pull a fast one on us? If you won’t drink our alcohol, you’ll drink our punishment instead. Today, you’ll see just what we’re capable of…”
