Steven sprung from his seat.
Before he could charge toward Charles, Amelia gripped his hand, her knuckles white. "Don't, Steve..."
Charles was the heir of the Iversons, and Amelia was protected by her family, but Steven had no one.
She did not want Steven to get involved any deeper than he already was because of her.
Before Steven could do anything, Bella went ahead and kicked Charles in the face.
"Ugh!"
Bella knocked Charles' two front teeth out. Charles looked funny, with a bloody mouth and a big hole in his upper teeth.
Justin gasped silently and swallowed hard.
When he was a child, he watched a movie about a beautiful but savage woman. Bella was a hell lot fiercer than the female protagonist.
With that in mind, Justin narrowed his eyes and curled his lips.
He loved the vivid and candid side of her.
"Oh, your sister is scary. She gets physical right away. She sure has a temper."
Seeing Bella's aggression gave Arnold goosebumps. He rubbed his arm and nudged Asher. "Hey, shouldn't you be considerate to Mr. Salvador? When they get married, you should get him premium insurance. That would show you care."
"Do you have nothing better to do, Dr. Larson?" Asher's tone was cold as he stood there, tall and still.
"Bella, you must be exasperated. All you can do is get mad."
Charles bared his bloody fangs, and he spoke with a lisp. "You have no proof. You can't do anything. Yet, you and Justin beat me up. I want to put you behind bars. I want to ruin you!"
"Am I supposed to be afraid? Do you think your threats scare me?" Bella smirked and clenched her fists, her knuckles popping. "One more word from you, and I'll pull out all of your teeth." The aggressor became the scaredy-cat. Charles immediately shut his mouth.
"Bella... Justin... You have done a lot for me."
Lying weakly in Steven's arms, Amelia shook her head in tears. "I just want this to be over. You've done enough."
She was timid and easily frightened. However, she feared dragging the family she cared for into a huge mess.
It was only a matter of time before she was to join the Iversons in union. She was hurt enough, so what was wrong with taking another one for the team?
Some choices were not up to her.
"What are you saying, Amelia? You were taken advantage of. It's not something Bella and I can just pretend didn't happen."
Justin's breathing was heavy as he gritted his teeth. "He won't get away so easily."
The fact that Amelia lumped them together in a sentence made him warm and cozy inside.
