Unrepairable Love
Chapter 851
But people like Blair had no room to resist. When you encounter a direct robbery, the best thing to do is just give them what they want. Your life is more important,โ Gavin replied. โThey donโt rob just anyone; they observe first. They see if you really have money.โ
โThatโs terrifying,โ Elizabeth shook her head, almost in disbelief. What kind of place was this? No wonder Sheldon insisted that Blair accompany her. It was really hard to handle things alone.
Unfortunately, Blair wasnโt much help. In situations like this, Elizabeth needed a six-foot-tall guy to back her up.
As Elizabeth was eating, she suddenly heard a girl scream from outside the door. The sound was piercing and full of panic. That voice was a bit familiar.
โAh! Help!โ
Upon hearing the cry for help, Elizabeth was certainโit was Blair. Elizabeth immediately stood up and was about to push open the private room door, when Gavin grabbed her and shook his head.
โGoing out now wonโt save her. They just want the stuff; they wonโt hurt anyone.โ
Elizabeth was stunned. What did he mean? Was she supposed to stay in the room and do nothing, knowing Blair was in danger? She admitted Blair was annoying, but to remain indifferent was something she just couldnโt do.
โNo way, Blair came with me, and I have to take her back safely.โ If something happened to Blair, Elizabeth would have a hard time explaining it to Sheldon.
โMs. Percy, there will be several of them,โ Gavin reminded Elizabeth. Elizabeth could see that Gavin was genuinely afraid of offending the people.
โYou guys stay out of sight, Iโll handle it myself. Can you please call the police for us?โ Elizabeth asked Gavin.
Gavin hesitated, then nodded. But even calling the police might not help. The people here were all thugs. There were so many robberies every day that the police couldnโt keep up.
Elizabeth still pushed open the door.
โMs. Percy, be careful,โ Zander said worriedly, but he couldnโt do much to help. Zander managed to get by in Dream City because he kept a low profile.
At the stairway, Blair was being dragged down by someone. โHand over everything valuable you have! There more? Whatโs that? Take it off!โ
โThis is a bracelet. I canโt take it off; itโs a limited edition, and I like it. I wonโt give it up!โ Blairโs words made the robber even more excited.
Limited edition? It must be worth a lot! Sure enough, this woman was covered in valuable items.
Elizabeth quickly followed, โHey!โ Elizabeth descended the stairs and finally saw the men clearly. Four men, two quite young, and two in their forties. One of the younger men had his arm around Blairโs neck, dragging her. The other three were helping, each holding a knife. The knives looked old, with dried blood on the handles. It was clear that this was a group of frequent robbers. They did this kind of thing often.
โElizabeth Elizabeth, help me!โ Blair screamed.
The man tightened his grip on Blairโs neck, โKeep it down!โ Elizabeth squinted. This meant they were still worried about being discovered.
โI have no money, I really have no money, donโt hurt me. Sho, she has money!โ Blair was so scared that she directly pointed at Elizabeth.
