My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

Chapter 1354 Luke And The Lady (Part Two)

"C'mon, chica. Do you really think you have a chance against us?" Everyone laughed evilly. Everyone, that was, except Michelle, who was getting more and more nervous.

"I dunno. What if I know something you don't? I wouldn't be too quick to judge. If I were you, I'd run now!" Michelle kicked the pebbles on the ground with her toes, regretting her carelessness. A dead end alley was no place to get caught. She should have seen that coming.

They laughed again. "What, you think you're tough enough? Boys, we have a winner. Let's have some fun," said one of the men who looked the same age as Michelle. And he seemed just as carefree.

"I mean it. Back off, now!" She was as brave as she could be, given the odds. She'd been in some of the seediest places in the city, and come out unscathed. She was used to walking into such places, risking her life.

"Bitch, you have no idea. C'mon boys, the moon is high. It's a night for love!" The man smiled evilly and stared at Michelle's breasts, visibly moving up and down as she got more and more nervous.

Michelle frowned deeply, though she just wanted to cry. She had no choice now. As the saying goes, "do or die." Was she really so stupid to continue to insult these guys? But then again, she was Michelle.

"Hey you! Help me!." Michelle pretended to be surprised and looked over the gangsters' heads, like there was someone there. Everyone turned their heads -- the police might be there. Michelle's trick worked, and she ran right past them and out of the alley. They didn't expect this, and were absolutely pissed at her. Naturally, they gave chase.

Michelle realized how much a mistake she'd made, trying to find back alleys. There was no one around, and no place to hide.

"You'll regret this bitch! Stop running and let us have some fun!" The gangsters shouted loudly behind her. Michelle ran like all the hounds of hell were after her -- because they were.

She just ignored their cries and ran even faster. Only an idiot would waste his breath on them. The most important thing to do was run. Let them yell at her all they wanted. Maybe they'd run out of breath first.

She was headed for the gate of a courtyard when a hand reached out, grabbed her arm, and

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

ds," Michelle complained to him. Maybe he could get him to drive her home. She really didn't feel safe anymore.

"I already saved you once. What? You want me to follow you around and save you all the time?" Once Luke thought of that, he got goosebumps. He could just think about it, but he couldn't really do it. He was Edward's bodyguard, not hers.

"Wow, that sounds good. So how about it?" Michelle seemed to haven't heard the mocking tone in his voice. She really hoped that was a serious suggestion. Then, she caught herself. 'Oh my god! What am I thinking? I must be nuts!'

"Are you a retard? Or do you try hard to be that stupid?" Luke didn't even realize what he was doing. He was a man of few words, yet he was carrying on a conversation with her. Or didn't he notice that something strange was happening?

"Luke, this is so cute. It's like a lover's quarrel." Michelle looked up at him as this man was really tall. So she could always just see his nostrils, but not his head. She couldn't even tell if he was going bald.

"Take that back. It's not funny." Luke's face sank. Instantly, he became even more dangerous. His whole life revolved around protecting Edward. So he never thought about loving anyone, let alone getting serious with a woman.

"I'm just kidding. Don't bust a nut." Michelle felt a little embarrassed. She didn't know what came over her, but she found herself liking this guy a lot. She wasn't kidding, but she wasn't going to let him know that.
