"Wow, what a glib girl! Why, Ethan is striving to have a posthumous child so that he can inherit Selmy Group? He has been burned like a ghost, and he even got married?" The woman who spoke was Ellie's wife, Sara White.
"Well, Sara, don't waste your breath with her. It's more important for us to get down to business!" Ellie led the group of people to the treatment room upstairs.
Harry stopped him at the stairs. "Ellie, you brought so many people here. What do you want?"
"I want to give my nephew Ethan a medical checkup. We need to evaluate if his physical condition and judge if he is qualified to be the of Selmy's Group. To be fair and just, have brought forensic experts and three senior directors of the board." Ellie was aggressive.
"Ellie, Ethan is your nephew. Are you looking forward to his death? Don't push him too far!" Harry the baseball bat in his hand.
"As long as I'm here, you can't mess up in this house!"
"Mrs. Selmy, call Mr. Alex!" Hearing the sound, Alice rushed out of the kitchen with a kitchen knife in her hand. She reminded Lita while rushing to the stairs and guarding the stairs Harry.
Seeing Harry and Alice defending Ethan like this, Lita's heart was full of gratitude. She took out her mobile phone and was about to call when she realized that she did not have Alex's mobile phone number.
"Mrs. Selmy, my cell phone is in my room. Mr. Alex's number is saved in it," Alice reminded her.
"Catch that girl. Don't let her call Alex!" Ellie was somewhat afraid of Alex, who was his irreconcilable enemy.
Seeing two muscular men rushing towards her, Lita picked up the chair next to her and threw it at them, which won the time for her to run into Alice's room. She locked the door of the room behind her, suppressing the fear in her heart and the worry for Ethan. She panicked and began to look for Alice's mobile phone. Fortunately, Alice's mobile phone was put on the bedside cabinet to charge.
The sound of the two strong men slamming the door made Lita more and more nervous.
When Alex picked up the phone, Lita almost broke down. "Alex, come back quickly. Come back immediately."
"What's happening?" Alex asked coldly while running out of the office.
"Ellie brought a lot of people here. They were going to do medical checkup for Ethan," Lita tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart.
"Stop him! Don't let him enter the treatment room! I'll go back right now!" Alex snapped.
"Oh, okay... ah!" The door was smashed open, and Lita fell with a miserable scream.
"Lita... Lita!" Alex called out twice, but there was a noise on the other side of the phone.
When Alex arrived home, the whole villa was in a tense situation.
Harry had practiced martial arts before. It was no problem for him to fight against five people by himself. Alice and Lita couldn't be of much help. But at some critical moments, Harry had to be distracted to take care of Lita, so their resistance was not strong enough.
The more Harry resisted, the more suspicious Ellie felt that Ethan was dying. The medical evaluation could prove that he was no longer qualified to be the president of a big corporation. Today, he brought both forensic experts and senior directors here so as to force Ethan to give up his position.
Lita held the baseball bat given by Harry tightly and guarded at the door of Ethan's treatment room. Since both Harry and Alice would protect Ethan with their lives, as his wife, had more responsibility to guard the door.
Ellie not only brought the forensic experts and senior directors of the company, but also four muscular men. Harry was a little outnumbered. Under their third round of attack, the knife in his hand fell to the ground, and he lost his balance and bumped against the wall. The four muscular men immediately separated Harry from the other people.
So Lita was the only one who was guarding the treatment room. Facing the fierce strong men, Lita was really scared. However, after seeing Harry and Alice get injured in order to protect her husband, she was filled with courage and obstinacy.
"Ellie, I've already called the police. The police will arrive soon. You broke into the private house and bullied your own nephew. Ethan and you are born in the same family. Why are you so eager to hurt him?" Lita knew that she was unable to beat them, so she could only reason with them.
Her purpose was clear, which was to buy time to wait for Alex to come back. At this moment, Alex became the savior in her heart.
"Girl, get out of my way. It's just a medical identification. Don't make it as if I'm going to kill my nephew. If you don't get out of my way, I'll throw you downstairs." Ellie was a little impatient now.
"I won't let you get in! If you have guts, you can step on my dead body to get in! Ellie, I warn you: there is surveillance system in this villa. What you have done will become evidence of your crime! Just wait to go to jail!"
In fact, Lita didn't know about the surveillance system at all. This was just an excuse for her to stall for time. She could only delay as many seconds as possible.
She clearly remembered Alex's words: Stop him! Don't let him enter the treatment room! She also believed that Alex must be on the way back home.
Ellie looked around with a guilty conscience. The two forensic experts, in particular, seemed uneasy. They could shift the blame of trespassing to Ellie, but without the consent of the litigant or his guardian, they couldn't force him to have the medical identification. They would face a serious charge.
"Ellie, don't argue with this damned girl! This is her stalling scheme. She's waiting for Alex to come back. Drag her away." Ellie's wife Sara scolded him and took the lead in rushing forward to grab the baseball bat in Lita's hand.
Lita instinctively defended herself. She raised her baseball bat and hit Sara's head. She failed to control her strength, probably because she was too nervous. Sara's forehead immediately bled.
"B*stard, how dare you hit my wife?" Ellie was so angry that he raised the dagger in his hand and stabbed at Lita.
Litaa instinctively squatted down with her hands covering her head.
"Stop!" A fast-moving shadow flew over. It was too late to grab the knife in Ellie's hand, so the man used his left shoulder to protect the woman who was squatting down. The dagger pierced Alex's suit on his left shoulder, and Ellie was hit to the ground by Alex's fist in the next second.
Many years later, every time when Lita recalled this scene, her breath was still taken away. He was as handsome as Apollo, and he protected her as a brave knight.
The blood soaked his white shirt under the suit, but he ignore the pain because of the rage. He beat the four muscular men until they fell to the ground. "Mr. Alex, don't beat them anymore. You will kill them."
Harry and Liya held him by his waist and tried to stop him. The furious Alex, like a violent lion, finally calmed down and the group of people fled out of the house.
Lita held the man's waist and smelt the odor mixed with tobacco and blood, feeling inexplicably safe. Her tears, which had been suppressed all the time, rolled down as she finally felt relieved.
