Chapter 1240 The Conflict In The Bar (1/2)
In F Country
Nora was listening to the background sounds while looking at the man in front of her with blurry eyes inside the noisy bar.
Carlos sighed and looked at the woman in front of him with pity. ”Nora, in fact, I don't have any ulterior motives. I just want to protect you. You were abused in the Mo Family in the past, and afterwards, you married Darren, but then he bullied you too. I just want to take you away from here, and I don't want you to ever be hurt again.” As Carlos spoke, Nora sighed. The serious expression on his face immediately affected Nora's mood.
”As you know, I'm not here to reminisce about the good old days,” Nora said coldly.
After listening to her, Carlos knitted his brows slightly, looking unhappy. His eyes narrowed, and then he said in a deep voice, ”Nora, if there's anything I can do for you, just let me know.”
”Don't you know the real reason why I've come here today?” Nora asked seriously with a faint smile playing in her eyes.
However, as she said that, her hands were unconsciously clenching into fists. Complex emotions poured forth like a dark stream, which could not stop her from wanting to become strong.
At this moment, some gangsters sitting at the table next to theirs had begun to take an interest in Nora. They had discovered that Nora was pretty, and their eyes soon lit up as they began coveting her.
”Hale, look at the girl over there. How pretty she is!” the young man with yellow hair said while looking over his shoulder at Nora. His lascivious gaze did not escape Carlos's attention.
Squinting his eyes, Carlos prompted Nora in a low voice immediately. ”Nora, please finish eating. Hurry up, we should leave here.”
Seeing Carlos's expression become guarded, Nora followed his gaze and found several men staring at her with leering smiles. She immediately felt flustered.
