Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 143 - One Hundred And Forty-three: Sleep Over At Your Place

The third point of view

"How much is that? " Judy asked as he fished out his wallet from the back pocket of his pants.

The position he had kept his money was prone to be nicked by pickpockets but he was not bothered. Having lived a rugged and vigilant lifestyle, those petty thieves were the least of his problem.

"That's a two hundred sir" The attendant answered, waiting expectantly for the cash.

He handed the bills over to her, waiting to receive his balance when he saw someone through the visible glass door pass the convenience store by.

There was no mistaking that petite brunette with a face that could make two nations go to war in a bid to have her, Emily.

What was she doing here by this time of the night? He wondered, this was close to his neighborhood and wasn't exactly a friendly place for pretty ladies.

He would have ignored the girl since the last time both met, they ended up doing something that would have his head served on a platter, that was until he saw two men trailing after her with bad intentions written all over their faces.

"Shit!" He cursed and ran out of the store.

"Sir, your change " The attendant called after him but he had vanished.

Emily was on top of the world, whoever recommended the club deserved an award; It was just as she wanted.

After a wild partying, all she wanted was to go home and soak in a hot bath but what she never expected was to get followed.

She turned around and gazed at the face of her followers, feeling goosebumps all over her arms as one of them winked at her with his crooked teeth.

"Eww" Emily gagged and hurried her steps.

She wasn't afraid since people were going her way or so she thought until someone grabbed her arm and dragged her into a dimly lit alleyway before she could realize what was going on.

"Let me go!" she screamed but the grip tightened until she was pulled away from view.

Emily tried to escape but the entrance was already blocked by those creepy men from earlier..It dawned on her, they were his accomplices.

"What do you want from me?" She asked, making a mental plan on how to escape.

"I've been calling and you've been ignoring us". The one with the crooked teeth said.

"I have nothing to do with the likes of you, can't a lady get a bit of freedom here?" she spat with anger.

"Not pretty ladies like you", The one who blocked her only source of escape said, nearing her.

Emily regarded him slowly and once he was within a reasonable distance, she lifted her leg and thrust him in the spot where the sun never shines.

He groaned in pain, his knees buckling to the ground as she made her escape.

But Emily didn't reach the main road when she was grabbed from behind by the hair causing her to yelp in pain.

"Where do you think you're going?". Crooked teeth pushed her to the ground.

"Hold her well, she's a feisty one" He ordered his partner who dragged the girl to her feet just as their leader who recovered from the torturous episode stood to his feet.

"I swear to God if you as much as lay a hand on me, you would disappear from the surface of this earth with no trace; that's how powerful I am" She threatened them, but the bastard holding her hands from behind snickered at her claims he thinks must be exaggerations.

Shit, this wasn't looking good, Emily thought. It seems that the old man has truly abandoned her because she left.

She knew there were always guards secretly trailing and protecting her which was why she had never been bothered with danger.

But now she was wrong, her father was teaching her a lesson - in a bad time.

"You bitch!" He roared and raised his hand to hit her when a voice interrupted them from behind

"Let her go"

They all looked towards the source of the voice.

"Pretend you didn't see anything and we would spare you" Crooked teeth dismissed Judy who was staring at them with blazing intensity.

Emily breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Judy come to her rescue but a trace of anxiety was seen in her eyes.

She surmised he had one or two training sessions since he was always beside Niklaus, but it was three against one, how was he going to survive that?

"I believe you heard me clearly" Judy ignored their warning, demanding for the girl's release.

Irritated, crooked teeth gestured to his other partner to go and deal with the intruder who wanted a death wish.

Judy snorted and didn't even move when the man attacked him, he simply blocked the blow, grabbed the man's hand, and twisted it from behind till the sound of bone breaking was heard.

The scapegoat screamed in pain before Judy bashed his head on the opposite wall and he passed out.

Emily closed her eyes and winced at the level of violence being displayed before her.

"Who's next?" Judy asked, cracking his neck and fist threateningly.

Both remaining men were stunned at the scene that just played out but of course, pride comes before a fall.

Crooked teeth was the next to charge at Judy who KO'd him with an uppercut and a fatal kick to the lungs.

Emily didn't miss the murderous intent in Judy's eyes when he began to approach them with angry strides.

The leader, seeing his men were defeated and his ass about to be wiped, grabbed Emily and held a knife to her throat.

"Don't come any closer" He threatened the god of violence who stopped in his tracks.

His eyes flashed when he saw how dangerously close the knife was pressed to her throat, drawing blood; the idiot wasn't bluffing.

"Let the girl go" He growled a warning.

"So you could finish me too? " The man laughed, "No way. Until I'm safe from you, don't think of getting her -"

He was still speaking when Emily sprayed him in the eye with a paper spray without warning prompting her release.

Still clearing his eyes with pained screams, Judy took advantage of the distraction and knocked him out with a blow to the head.

By the time Judy was done, his chest was heaving and his blood boiling with anger. What had that girl been thinking, going out all alone by this time of the night in such a neighborhood?! He would give her a piece of his mind.

He decided but when he turned around, the girl was nowhere to be found. Judy sneered, does she think she would escape him that easily; he knew this neighborhood like the back of his hand.

Emily walked briskly, she wanted to escape that sexy yet scary man. After putting herself in danger, she was one hundred percent sure he would scold her ear off tonight.

But what she never expected was him cutting her off at the next intersection.

"Going somewhere? " He startled her.

Emily swallowed nervously but she had lived with her brother Niklaus for years and his shrewdness had rubbed off on her.

"Of course not". She laughed it off and hurried to his side saying," You hurt your hands while protecting me so I was looking for a store to buy some drugs"

"Really?" Judy asked, amusement tugging his lips to the side. He knew she was lying to him but let her.

"Yes", she nodded.

"If that's so, why are you heading that way, the convenience store is right there". Judy pointed to the store opposite her destination.

"Ahh, I must have made a mistake" Emily grinned at him bashfully," This dumb brain of mine" she hit her head in the guise of chiding herself.

"But you shouldn't blame me after all, I don't know the way here "

That comment made Judy rebuke her angrily "You should have thought about that before coming to club - "

Emily left before he was done with his lectures, that man was as annoying as her father.

Safety, safety, safety! There were girls more beautiful than her yet they're free to roam the earth; why was her oase different?! Must she be locked up to be protected from danger?

Emily entered the store with Judy trailing after her with his fixed vigilant eyes. Sigh, so annoying, she wasn't a baby.

She selected her needs from the shelves before dropping them on the counter to be checked.

"You're the one who forgot this, right? " The saleswoman said to Judy with a colored polythene bag in her grasp.

Judy was not surprised they found themselves in the same store since it wasn't far from the crime scene.

" Yes, thank you " He received it.

"What's inside, what did you buy?" The annoying woman tried to take a peak but he snatched it away from her view, albeit too late; she had seen a fraction of the content and could figure out the rest.

"You're cooking noodles? "

No answer,

She rubbed her jaw while narrowing her gaze at him,"If you come here to buy this, that means your place isn't far from here"

"Go home, He told her while paying for her expenses.

"Fine, I'll sleepover at your place "

"Hell no "
