Molly's heart leaped in alarm. She raised her leg and kicked at Eaton as he reached for the dagger.
To avoid her attack, Eaton had to draw back his hand.
But before Molly could catch a breath, he lunged over once again.
Although she was nimble, her opponent was, after all, a man. Soon, she began to tire.
Sensing an opening, Eaton reached out again.
The dagger was about to be snatched away when, in a flash, Molly's hand shot out and sliced his arm
open.
The blood spurted out!
"Ah..."
Eaton howled in misery and snapped.
'How dare you hurt me!"
Molly cried in agitation, "One more step, and you'll be sorry!"
The noise alarmed the two people downstairs.
Rhett and Kara were attracted there. The scene shocked them both.
Rhett came to his senses faster. He rushed over and grabbed Eaton's arm.Whether intentionally or not, his hand clamped down on Eaton's wound.
"Ah..."
Eaton screamed again in wretched agony.
"What are you doing? Let go! Can't you see I'm hurt?"
He turned his head and berated Rhett.
The latter pretended only then to realize he had touched the wound. He apologized profusely, "I'm
really sorry, Mr. Scott.
I was afraid she would hurt you again."
Eaton was in so much pain he nearly fainted. He couldn't even tell if Rhett's apology was sincere.
He only felt the pain in his wound was even greater.
It started to make his head spin.
He took a deep breath, barely steadying himself, and turned to look at Molly.
Molly had used the dagger in self-defense, never intending to hurt him. The sight of the blood drawn
had scared her out of her wits.
Her hands were shaking, and her mind was blank.
But she knew if she hadn’t done that, Eaton would have pinned her down.
Her heart raced, and her eyes glinted with resentment. She looked like a furious she-wolf, poised to
bite anyone.Kara recoiled in fear, daunted by Molly's look.
The whole thing today arose from her, and she was afraid that Molly would lose control and stab her as
well.
At such a moment, Kara didn't dare act rashly even though she hated Molly to the core.
Eaton was also kept at bay.
This was the first time he had seen Molly be so aggressive. She was acting like a different person—
ferocious and murderous.
Even a worm will turn.
Sensing the unfavorable situation, Eaton gave up the idea of subduing Molly but looked at her sullenly.
"Let's forget about this. See you around."
With that, he hurried downstairs and ran for his life.
Once they were gone, Molly loosened her grip.
The dagger fell to the floor with a clank.
One moment she was fierce, the next she was quaking with fear.
Fear hit her like a ton of bricks, crashing over her like a tidal wave.
She couldn't bear to spend another second in that place.
With panic etched on her face, she bolted out of the room.She raced down the stairs and escaped from the building.
Rhett caught sight of her fleeing figure and frowned. He wanted to chase after her but held back,
fearing Eaton would suspect anything. Changing his mind, he whipped out his phone to make a call.
