SWNOVELS Chapter She Outshines 120
Chapter 120 Ten minutes later.
The twenty or so thugs retreated, panting. They either slumped to the ground, braced their knees with their hands, or leaned against the railing of the bridge. They were so tired that they looked like old cattle that had plowed three acres of land in one go. They had no energy left to continue smacking. ***k, is this scar made of steel? My hands are numb from smashing it, but I can't break it. What the hell!" shouted one of the thugs. Seeing that the car cou

could not be smashed, some of the thugs exclaimed in exasperation, "You see this machete of mine? Imported, top-quality stuff, cost me hundreds, and now the blade's got nicks in it. It's ruined," and "This car's got bulletproof glass, right? I've hit it with least t fifty times and still couldn't break it. This thing's solid" "Boss, something doesn't feel right! One of the henchmen, who had a bit of sense, spoke up. This SUV looks ordinary, but no matter how hard we hit it, it won't get damaged. It's definitely not just any regular vehicle. And the driver's so calm, hasn't even made a phone call. Whoever they are, they're probably not someone to mess with. Shouldn't we just cut our losses and leave?
"Leave my foot! The burly man with black bandages around his face smacked the henchman on the head. "We only got a 400-dollar deposit each. If we want the full payment, we've got to at least break one of his arms or legs. Do you want the money or not?" As long as they achieved their goal, everyone would get 4,000 dollars each.
One would be a fool to give up on a chance to beat up one person with over twenty people!
The others chimed in, "Just because the car is tough doesn't mean the driver is. If he doesn't come out, we'll just force him
With that, someone took out a bucket of gasoline from the grass, unscrewed the cap, and waved it at Matthew in the car. indicating for him to get out of the car quickly or he would splash the gasoline.
At this point, Matthew pressed the cigarette between his fingers on the driver's seat.
Then, he took off his tie, took off his suit jacket, and unbuttoned his shirt. He picked up an arm-long baton from under the car seat, opened the car door, and stepped out calmly.
He took another another long stride.
The thugs thought to themselves, "What long legs, such shiny leather shoes, and the material and workmanship of his trousers are not bad. This guy must be rich."
They were going to be rich!
When Matthew got out of the car and stood in the circle of the streetlamps and headlights, the thugs were stunned.
This man was too f*****g handsome!
They had lived for so many years, but they had never seen such a good-looking person in real life.
He was simply a tall, rich, and handsome man who had walked out of a movie or television drama. They were full of jealousy. "Well, look who finally decided to get out of the car, the rich linle young master!" The man with the black bandages spat on the ground and swaggered up to Matthew. "We don't ask for much, just choose whether you want to keep a hand or a leg 13:14 Sun, Oct 13 G Chapter 120
Before he could finish. Matthew extended his baton and swung i forcefully, hitting the man on the head. The man collapsed immediately, bleeding and groaning. "Ouch, my head! I can't see anything! Call a doctor quickly!" The henchmen quickly snapped into action.
The person closest to him pounced forward and swung his iron fod at Matthew.
Matthew raised his baton and blocked the opponent's iron staff. Then, he raised his leg and kicked the vital part of the opponent's lower body,
The man let out a blood-curdling scream, like a pig being sla***red, and was kicked several meters away. He landed on the ground and could not get up again, as if he had been knocked our cold. Matthew turned his body sideways and strode forward. With ease. he passed between the two thugs. He raised his baton and swung it down, hitting the knce of a thug who was too tired to react.
Crack!
The thug fell to the ground, clutching his knee and screaming. My knee, my knee is broken!"
In just three seconds, Matthew had crippled three people three times, shocking the thugs
However, they were experienced after all. They quickly formed an encirclement and rushed up in batches. "Kill him
As soon as the thugs finished speaking, a kitchen knife flew over from behind the crowd and brushed past Matthew's head.
Blood flowed down from the top of Matthew's head, dyeing his handsome face half red.
He paused slightly and raised his hand to touch his face. Then, he looked at his blood-stained hand and smiled.
His bloodthirsty eyes looked even sharper and colder in the blood on his face.
"None of
of you can escape!" Mathew growled fiercely.
He let out a low laugh from his throat. Like an enraged beast, he raised the baton in his hand and rushed into the crowd. morning.

Athena was suddenly woken up by the heat.
She was on the mountain, and there were trees everywhere. The windows were open, and the night wind blew in. Logically speaking, she should not be sweating from the heat. After some thought, she sat up and turned on the fan, preparing to continue sleeping
at that moment, her phone rang, producing a melodious music.
The phone would only make a sound when someone important called her at night. Otherwise, it would be vibrating or
silent.
She picked up her phone and saw that it was a call from Matthew.
At this time, when most people are in the deepest part of their sleep, why would Matthew be calling her instead of sleeping?
Could it be because he's so preoccupied with thoughts of me that he can't sleep? Athena wondered.
The thought made Athena feel even warmer, her heart racing wildly, almost as if it were expanding and contracting with every beat. Her face was so flushed it felt like it was steaming. Chapter 120
"Oh, what am I thinking? Maybe he's still working and wants to discuss some academic issues with me? Athena quickly thought to herself.
She covered her face with one hand and pressed the answer button with the other trembling She whispered, "Hello!"
On the other end of the line, there was a low and indistinct panting.

About five to six seconds later, Matthew's deep, hoarse, and tired voice entered her ears. "Miss Donovan, sorry to disturb you so late at night."
His voice made Athena's ears itch. It was mumb and very hot.
Athena touched her burning cars and felt that her breathing had also become heavy and rapid. For a moment, she did not dare to speak, afraid that Matthew would recognize that something was wrong with her voice.
"But I need to tell you," Matthew's voice grew deeper and hoarser, like a bellows stoking a small fire, with the flames burning hotter and more desperately, trying to burst out and cousume everything but being forcefully suppressed. Matthew whispered intermittently. "I miss you... Very, very much... How wonderful it would be if you were here with me right now...
His voice was bro
broken and intermittent, as if it might stop at any moment.
Athena's face flushed, and her heart raced, feeling as if Matthew's voice might make her heart explode. Her mind was a whirlwand, and it felt like nothing existed except for his voice. "Miss Donovan, can you hear me? Matthew asked after a moment, his voice rough
"Yes, I can hear you." Athena replied weakly
Matthew's voice carried a soft chuckle. "It's good that you can hear me. Miss Donovan, it's 2:18 AM. You should get some good sleep. I wont disturb you any longer?
Hearing him about to hang up. Athena suddenly snapped back to awareness and realized something. She hurriedly asked. "Wait, are you sick? Is it serious?"
She was a top-notch doctor and should have noticed something was wrong with Matthew's voice earlier, but she had been so captivated by his words that she had not reacted immediately, SEND GIFT
