Chapter 3627
“Then why… did she abandon me back then?” Roger murmured, “Is it just because William is the heir of the Barlow family, and I am nothing? Jasper, tell me, why…”
At this moment, the quiet street remained silent, with no one to answer his question.
Roger hugged his knees with both hands and buried his face in them, like a discarded child sitting alone on the steps. It seemed as if he was the only one left in the world at this
moment.
After a while, footsteps suddenly approached, not just one set,
but several.
Finally, the footsteps stopped in front of Roger.
“Leston, it’s him. He told me to get lost earlier!” said the woman who had talked to Roger before.
“Don’t be afraid, in a moment, I’ll make him kneel down for you!” The other person comforted the woman, then shouted at Roger, “I advise you not to play dead. If you can kneel down for my sister now and make her happy, I might spare you.”
However, Roger still maintained his previous posture and
didn’t move, as if he hadn’t heard the other person’s words at
all.
The man named Leston couldn’t bear to lose face and shouted loudly, “Hey, did you hear me? If you keep playing dead, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
Roger didn’t look up, and lazily spat out a word, “Get lost!”
Leston and the people around him were obviously angry, and the woman said, “Leston, this guy is too annoying, you must teach him a lesson!”
“Okay, okay, I’ll make sure this guy remembers his lesson!” Leston said, grabbing a stick and swinging it towards Roger.
But before the stick could touch Roger, he caught it with one hand and looked at Leston expressionlessly. “I told you to
leave.”
The cold look in Roger’s eyes and the hostility emanating from him made Leston suddenly feel uneasy.
“Who do you think you are?” Leston said, trying to retrieve his
stick, but Roger’s grip was too strong.
Leston’s face turned red and he turned to his men. “What are you waiting for? Beat this guy up!”
Upon hearing this, the henchmen rushed forward to attack Roger.
