Chapter 20 My Knight
All Anastasia heard was a crisp crack. By the time she reacted,
Herschel’s wrist was already broken.

She exhaled, patting her chest to calm herself down. She reacted
a bit slowly this time, or she could have dealt with him on her
own.
Just then, she felt a chilling aura and then looked up, only to see
Felton.
His deep eyes were terrifyingly scary. “Take your disgusting
hands off her.”
Then he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her
toward him, obviously telling Herschel she was his.
The pain instantly sobered Herschel up mostly. As the woman
he had set eyes on was taken away from him, he was furious.
“Fuck! How dare you! She’s mine! Guys, go get him!”
Felton’s gaze deepened, and even the air around him was
freezing. He lowered his head and whispered in Anastasia’s ear,
“Go wait for me aside.”
He then took off his suit jacket, draped it over her shoulders,

and beat those thugs up ruthlessly.
His every punch was thrust with great force, and his every
strike was fatal.
Within a minute, the thugs all collapsed to the floor.
Seeing this, Herschel scrambled out while clutching his broken
wrist.
Just then, Anastasia came back to her senses. She signaled
Lorenzo with her eyes, and a group of bouncers emerged out of
nowhere.
They soon dragged Herschel’s lackeys out.
After dealing with them, Lorenzo dispersed several onlookers.
Anastasia smiled as she took off Felton’s jacket and handed it
over, “Thanks for today, Mr. Gutierrez!”
In fact, she could have dealt with those villains on her own.
“Anastasia, you surprised me. I didn’t know you were a regular
at bars,” Felton said.
Looking at him, she saw the mockery and tease in his eyes. She
had to take a deep breath to suppress her flared anger.

“It only proves one thing–you never cared about me.”
She felt great as she saw his livid face. Just as she was about to
leave, he gripped her wrist.
“You’re leaving just like that? I saved you. Aren’t you gonna
thank me?”
She felt speechless for a second.
She didn’t beg him to save her, did she?
“Fine. How do you want me to thank you?”

“That depends. How sincere are you?” Felton walked to a booth
nearby, sat down, crossed his legs, and looked at her.
She couldn’t help but roll her eyes inwardly.
Exactly how shameless was he?
She gritted her teeth in fury.
Sitting opposite him, she smiled, “Of course, I wanna thank you
sincerely. Lorenzo, have the bartender mix several glasses of my
usual drink and serve them to Mr. Gutierrez.”
Felton’s face twisted slightly as he heard the words “my usual
drink“. So, he was right. She was indeed a regular here!

He sneered, “So, this is who you really are. You acted as my
sweet, docile wife for three years. You must be jaded, right? It’s
impressive that you managed to stick around for so long.”
Suddenly, he realized that he had never really known the real
her.

Such a realization bugged him a lot.

“Yeah, it was indeed torturing,” Anastasia said while shrugging,
which pissed Felton off even more.
Just then, Lorenzo came back with a tray. He placed a glass in
front of Felton and another in front of her.
She said, “Give it a go, Mr. Gutierrez. This is my deepest
gratitude for you being my knight today!“”
