Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 809

The sound of the screeching interrupted Elaine's words. She turned her head in surprise and saw a familiar handsome figure coming out of the car.

The color drained from her face instantly. How did he find her?

It was Vincent.

Dressing in a black shirt, he seemed to fuse with the darkness.

But his cold temperament made it hard for one to ignore him.

There was not much expression on his angular face, and his dark eyes were fixed on her.

Somehow, she broke out in cold sweat and hid behind Howard.

Vincent must have known that she had drugged him.

He was smart.

At the same time, Howard was stunned to see a man who looked exactly the same as him appear. Then, he realized that it was Vincent Bradbury.

Earlier, Howard went to the psychiatric hospital to look for him, but he wasn't there.

Yet now, he appeared in front of them.

And the moment he came into sight, Elaine hid behind him as if she was avoiding a monster.

Realizing that, Howard grabbed hold of her hand.

All of a sudden, Vincent paused in his track. Looking at the two holding hands, he shifted his gaze away. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

He looked up at Elaine and ordered gently, "Come here."

The words seemed to be enveloped in grumpiness.

Elaine bit her lips and didn't move.

Seeing that, Vincent curled his lips slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He lifted his chin and commanded, "Get her into the car."

Immediately, the bodyguards behind him walked over to Elaine.

While defending Elaine, Howard took a step back and scolded, "Vincent, you're being unreasonable!"

Hearing that, Vincent stopped the bodyguards.

He walked over and looked at Howard calmly. "Oh. Do you want to reason with me?"

"Elaine's still young. You shouldn't treat her rough like this." Then, taking a deep breath, Howard continued, "Why don't we sit down and talk it through?"

He never expected Vincent to come to him so soon though.

Right on tonight.

On the other hand, upon hearing his words, Vincent said, "I'm not here to talk to you. Instead, I'm here for her. So if you don't want things to get rough, just step away and I'll leave immediately with her."

Howard shook in disagreement. "No way. I won't let her go with you."

"Then there's nothing to talk about."

"D*mmit!"

Vincent then looked toward Elaine. "Are you coming back with me obediently, or do you want me to carry you away by force?"

Instantly, she glared at him and snapped, "How dare you do that!"

That was equal to kidnapping!

However, Vincent just shot her a light glance. "The car is just over there. And things don't have to get rough if you get in it yourself."

"You b*stard!"

Frustrated, Elaine knew there was no point in arguing further with him.

So she held on to Howard's sleeve tight.

There was no way she would go with Vincent.

Seeing that, Vincent grew irritated and warned impatiently, "Elaine, you only have two choices now - it's either I finish him, knock you out and take you away, or you leave with me, and I'll let him go."

He was referring to Howard.

When Howard heard that, he started laughing.

"What a big talk! Who do you think you are?"

"Oh? You don't believe me?"

However, Elaine was trembling all over. She believed that Vincent could do such a thing because he killed Bob without even blinking an eye.

It was possible that he would blow Dr. Perkins's head with a gun in the next moment.

With a pale face, she quickly stepped out from behind Howard. "Okay, I'll come with you. But you can't hurt him."

"Elaine!"

Howard paled, and he reached out to pull her.

But Elaine dodged his grip and stepped toward Vincent slowly.

Howard wanted to pull her back, but the bodyguards pressed him onto the ground.

On the other hand, Vincent watched coldly as Elaine walked toward him. Although she was finally giving in, he was still quite angry.

Eventually, she stopped in front of him. Looking down at her, he found that her body was shaking slightly.

Her face was as white as a sheet, and there was a trace of panic in her eyes.

She was frightened.

Seeing that, Vincent looked even grave.

He took a napkin from his pocket and ordered, "Lift your left hand up."

"Huh?"

Dazed, she didn't know what he meant.

Vincent frowned.

Quickly, she raised her left hand tremblingly. She bit her lips and ordered herself to calm down.

In the next second, Vincent wiped her hand with the napkin and then threw the napkin away. After that, he took her hand and led her to the car.

Somehow, Elaine understood what he meant just now.

It seemed that he didn't like Dr. Perkins holding her hand.

"Get in." He opened the passenger's seat door.

With hesitation, Elaine looked back at Howard, who was shouting at her not to get into the car.

Being pressed to the ground by the bodyguards, he looked irate, yet he couldn't get up at all.

Upon taking a deep breath, she turned to Vincent. "I'll come with you, but you gotta let him go."

They treated Dr. Perkins so rudely. What if they hurt his hands?

He needed to do surgeries so he couldn't get his hands hurt.

"Please, let him go." Reluctantly, Elaine begged.

Vincent's face darkened as he ran out of patience and his voice had cooled down. "If you don't get in the car now, his hands gonna get dislocated in a minute."

What a douche.

But she didn't dare to say anything further and quickly got into the car.

As the passenger's seat door was shut, Vincent got into the driver's seat and started the car to leave.

Leaving the scene, Elaine finally requested in a trembling voice, "Tell your men to let go of Dr. Perkins."

Nonetheless, Vincent just drove in silence. His eyes looked icy.

Shakily, Elaine shut her eyes.

In the villa-

Taking Elaine back, Vincent commanded in a cold voice to the servants, "Clean her up."

Then he went upstairs.

Shortly, two servants came to her with clean clothes in their hands. "Miss Jacob, we'll help you to take a bath first."

She looked towards Morgan and said, "Morgan, I don't wanna take a bath."

However, Morgan just sighed and said, "Miss Jacob, you shouldn't have drugged Mr. Bradbury. He was very angry when he woke up."

Her body shook a little. As expected, Vincent knew that.

"And if you don't take a shower, I'm afraid these two are gonna get fired by Mr. Bradbury. Are you sure you wanna see that?" Morgan seemed to know her weak spot.

Having no choice, Elaine could only follow the servants into the bathroom.

Morgan then dictated to the kitchen, "Go get Mr. Bradbury's dinner ready."

In order to look for Miss Jacob, Mr. Bradbury hadn't eaten anything the whole day.
