Chapter 225

Noah miscalculated. He chose the wrong location. This was near a traffic light intersection, where surveillance cameras were everywhere.
It was true that they initiated the fight, and Serenity was only defending herself.
Noah believed it would be easy to handle Serenity with a group of seven or eight men since she was just a weak woman. To his surprise, she was skilled in combat. His family had never mentioned that she knew self-defense.
“What do you want?” Noah pleaded as Serenity tightened her grip on his ear. He screamed in pain, cursing, “Let go! My parents won’t forgive you if you rip my ear off!” “Call me Sis.”
“Bah! You’re not my sister.”
“True, I’m not your sister. I don’t have a cousin like you.”
Serenity pulled harder, causing Noah to wail in agony. His companions, having already been intimidated by her fighting skills, quietly retreated as they witnessed her tormenting him.

“Stop right there, all of you!” Serenity’s shout caused the punks to freeze in place.
Their faces reflected their apprehension.

“Ms. Hunt, we were blind and offended you. We were wrong. We were hired by Noah. It’s his fault. Please, have mercy and let us go,” the punks pleaded politely. Noah was left speechless. “Those spineless cowards! Ow, my ear hurts! Is this woman really going to rip it off?”
“Serenity… S-Sis, please stop pulling! I’ll call you Sis, okay?”
Noah felt like crying.
Serenity finally released his ear and patted his face twice, asking with a teasing smile, “Am I your sister?” “Yes, yes, yes! We have the same grandparents, and our fathers are brothers, making us close cousins.”
Noah could not resist Serenity any longer and succumbed to her. His bravado faded quickly, and he even resorted to the family card.
Serenity stood up and…

She noticed the cars parked a hundred meters behind her. Uncertain whether they were there to avoid trouble or just to observe, she didn’t care. She pulled out her phone and called the police.

Noah and the others panicked at the sight of her making the call. Enduring the pain, Noah dropped to his knees and clutched one of Serenity’s legs with both hands. “Sis! We were just messing around. Please don’t call the police. You don’t need to do that. We’ll apologize to you.”

Serenity looked down at him and replied sarcastically, “Didn’t you say you wanted to call the police to have me arrested? And that I should cover your medical fees? I’m calling the police for you, so you should be grateful.”

Noah was at a loss for words. He wasn’t academically inclined, but even he understood they were in the wrong; Serenity was acting in self-defense. Yet, they lacked the strength to overpower her. If she called the police, they risked being detained. Serenity kicked Noah away and proceeded to call the cops regardless.

‘Noah is too young and already accustomed to his arrogance. I’m reporting him to teach him a lesson so he doesn’t get into more trouble later. I’m doing this for his own good since we’re family.’

‘No need to thank me!’

When Noah saw Serenity calling the police, ignoring their family bond, he shouted, “My parents said you were cold-hearted and ruthless. Seems like they were right about you!”
