Chapter 880
"Yeah, Megan," Nathan murmured. nbsp;"Mr. Hernandez stayed by your side without leaving after the incident yesterday. If your life were in danger, he would be very worried."
nbsp;
Joseph frowned at the words, but when he saw hope in Megan's eyes, there were some things he couldn't say.
nbsp;
"Really?" Megan looked at Joseph expectantly with red eyes. nbsp;"Joseph, do you not mind me? I'm no longer pure. I almost got..."
nbsp;
"You haven't," Joseph interrupted Megan. nbsp;"Don't overthink it. We arrived in time to stop it."
nbsp;
"Why do I always encounter such things?" Megan's face was full of despair. nbsp;"I don't even know that person, and it nbsp;was so scary. He tore my clothes."
nbsp;
Megan suddenly held her head in pain.
nbsp;
"Don't think about it." Joseph grabbed Megan's hand. Megan threw herself into Joseph's arms, trembling, pressing her small face tightly against Joseph's. nbsp;"Joseph, why did you save me? I really wanted to die; I'm so tired; yesterday's incident reminded me of what happened in Austin. I feel so helpless; please don't leave me."
nbsp;
"It's okay, I'm here nbsp;now," Joseph comforted Megan helplessly.
nbsp;
Megan gradually calmed down in Joseph's arms, and as she became a bit calmer, Nathan immediately asked, "Megan, what happened? Why did that person grab you?"
nbsp;
"I don't know either. I just felt bad and wanted to go shopping, but then he knocked me out in the parking lot and dragged me into the car. When I woke up, I was in a cave; that person... he said... he said he wanted to violate me severely and even take photos to show to others, let everyone see," nbsp;Megan choked up. nbsp;"He wanted to ruin me, but I don't even know him."
nbsp;
"That's too much." Nathan was furious. nbsp;"Mr. Hernandez, I heard from Michael yesterday that the kidnapper is Cassie's guy. You must give Megan an explanation."
nbsp;
"What? That guy was arranged by Cassie?" nbsp;Megan looked puzzled and frightened.
nbsp;
"Why would Cassie do that? She already took you away from me; what else does she have against me? I get it. Does she hate me for saying she had a mental illness before, for taking you away from her, or for Nathan almost violating her friend years ago? But she could have come directly to me. Why use such despicable means," nbsp;she then continued.
nbsp;
Joseph's handsome face turned as cold as ice.
nbsp;
After stealing a glance at Joseph, Nathan pretended to be angry and shouted, "Megan, don't you understand? Cassie doesn't just want to retaliate against you. She wants to completely destroy you so that wherever you go in the future, you won't be respected, you'll be despised, no man will dare to marry you, and even make you lose the courage to live."
nbsp;
"So scary." nbsp;Megan kept trembling, then looked at Joseph with fear and pleading, "Joseph, I know you love Cassie now, but you wouldn't hurt me for Cassie, right?"
nbsp;
"I wouldn't. I will protect you," nbsp;Joseph comforted gently.
nbsp;
Still unsatisfied, Nathan said, "Mr. Hernandez, you must give Megan an explanation for this; just because our Zenith Family is weak, we can't let Megan be bullied for no reason. Megan's life is too painful, being despised by her parents and sent to a mental hospital as a child, then coming out and only Nina is liked at home, not Megan, going to Austin for further studies and disappearing for many years. It's too rough. Why is God so unfair to Megan."
nbsp;
"I will give Megan an explanation," Joseph lowered his head and asked Megan. nbsp;"What do you want me to do."
nbsp;
Megan shook her head and said, "In fact, the man who almost violated me should be sent to prison, but I really hate him touching me. Joseph, can you cut off the fingers he used to touch me? I don't want innocent girls to be violated again."
nbsp;
"Okay." Joseph hesitated for a moment, then nodded. nbsp;"I'll do it later."
nbsp;
It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that Megan fell asleep exhausted again.
nbsp;
Joseph got up and said to Nathan, "You stay here and take care of Megan."
nbsp;
"Are you nbsp;really going to cut off his fingers?" Nathan gathered courage and said. nbsp;"Mr. Hernandez, you wouldn't use fake fingers to deceive us nbsp;now, would you? nbsp;After all, you don't care about Megan at all once you're with Cassie."
nbsp;
"I won't," Joseph turned around with a tense face and left.
