Chapter 77 Dump HimÂ
“That bitch is on the phone! Grab it from her!” someone shouted.Â
Panic surged through Nova. She was completely alone–her only hope was to beg Sloane. “Is Kael with you?”Â
Before she could finish, her phone was snatched away and smashed to the ground, shattering into pieces.Â
Nova screamed for help, but a hand clamped over her mouth. “Who do you think you are, begging for mercy? Where was this act when you killed Josh andÂ
bullied Sloane?”Â
“Mmm!” Nova’s eyes were bloodshot, tears mixing with red streaks as she struggled desperately.Â
But it was useless.Â
Is this really how I’ll die? Tormented by these crazy fans?Â
Nova curled into a ball, dirty and broken like a trampled rat. Eventually, she even lost the strength to scream.Â
Time dragged on–until suddenly, the villa’s front door was kicked open.Â
“Run… someone’s coming!” a voice yelped.Â
“It sounds like Mr. Voss!”Â
Another scoffed, “Why the panic? Mr. Voss wouldn’t waste his time on this bitch. She’s bad luck!”Â
Nova’s lips parted, pale and numb. Would Kael even believe me?Â
He doted on Sloane so much–what would he think when he heard the rumors about her bullying?Â
Nova dropped her gaze, avoiding Kael’s eyes. She swallowed the metallic taste in her throat and tried to stand, her body aching.Â
There was only one thought in her mind–call the police. She wouldn’t let any of these people get away.Â
“Where do you think you’re going? Stay here and wait for Mr. Voss to punish you! You’re finished!” One of the attackers raised her foot, aiming for Nova’s knee.Â
The others laughed.Â
Nova braced herself for the pain, too slow to dodge.Â
But suddenly, a tall figure stepped in front of her, pushing the crowd away. She thought she heard him suck in a sharp breath–like he was in pain.Â
In the next second, the woman who’d tried to lock her was sent flying by a single kick from Kael. She landed hard, coughing up blood.Â
Are you all tired of living?!”Â
Kael’s eyes were a terrifying shade of red, like a demon risen from hell, ready to kill.Â
He trembled as he lifted Nova into his arms. When he saw her battered, filthy state, tears fell freely. His heart felt like it was being crushed–even breathing hurt.Â
“Baby, I’m so sorry I’m late… I’m so sorry…”Â
Nova kept her eyes down, hiding the redness in her gaze, she didn’t want to look at him, let alone Itsten to his lies.Â
He was with Sloane. And now he’s lying to my face.Â
She opened her mouth, wanting him to put her down.Â

But then a bold voice shouted, “Mr. Voss, you’re blind! Nova’s a heartless bitch! She killed Josh and bullied Ms. Reed! We have video proof!”Â
“Yeah! Dump her before she stabs you in the back! She’s a disaster!”Â
Insults poured in. Someone even pulled out a phone and played a video–edited footage of Nova throwing a glass at Sloane in the hospital.Â
Nova’s eyes darkened. She didn’t want to watch Kael humiliate her for another woman. “Put me down. I’ll handle this myself.”Â
Kael’s face was cold. He held her tighter, glaring at the mob. They shrank back, intimidated by his rage.Â
“Arrest them.” he said, his voice like ice. “Make them pay tenfold–no, a hundredfold–for what they did to Nova.”Â
Nova froze. Once, his protectiveness would have warmed her heart. Now, it only felt suffocating.Â
She laughed bitterly, struggling to get out of his arms. She didn’t want to rely on him anymore.Â
Sam had long hated these people. He nodded immediately.Â
Kael’s bodyguards moved in, grabbing the attackers.Â
Panic set in. “Mr. Voss, we’re telling the truth! Nova’s not who you think she is! She killed Josh and bullied Ms. Reed! Don’t let her fool you!”Â
“She’s the one in the wrong! You can’t do this to us!”Â
A hundredfold? They’d never survive that.Â
They trembled with fear.Â
Kael held Nova close, pressing his chin to her head, his voice hoarse with guilt. “I’m so sorry, baby. I’ll never let anyone hurt you again…”Â
He turned to Sam, his eyes cold. “Call the police. Charge them with breaking and entering, defamation, and assault. Tell the chief to throw the book at them. I want them to rot in prison–let them taste what it’s like to be bullied by monsters!”Â
Nova’s body stiffened. Tears fell–not from sadness, but from relief. Finally, these people would pay.Â
The attackers begged, kowtowing until their heads bled. “Mr. Voss! Mrs. Voss! We’re just Ms. Reed’s fans! We were angry–please forgive us!”Â
“Please don’t send us to jail!”Â
No one paid them any attention.Â
Sam glared at them. “Regret now? Where was this attitude when you were hurting her?” He nodded to the bodyguards. “Drag them out.”Â
Filthy animals! They deserve to be mocked and spat on.Â
Kael carried Nova back to the villa, gently setting her on the couch.Â
Nova stared blankly ahead, trying to stand.Â
“Nova…” Kael grabbed her thin shoulders, dropping to his knees, begging for forgiveness. “I had no idea this would happen. How dare they break into ourÂ
home…”Â
Just thinking about how they’d hurt the woman he’d cherished for years made him want to kill them.Â
He clenched his jaw, his eyes with rage. “I’ll make every single one of them pay. No one gets away with hurting you.”Â
Her eyes red, Nova turned her head, avqiding his gaze.Â
He always does this. Hits me with a slap, then gives me a candy.Â

What good was revenge now? The damage was already done. He’d never understand her pain.Â
“Nova…” Kael waited for a response, his heart racing with fear.Â
He pulled a bracelet from his suit pocket and fastened it around her wrist, his eyes sincere, determined. “I had this custom made. It has a GPS tracker. From now on, I’ll always know where you are. I promise–nothing like last night or today will ever happen again.”Â
Ever since she’d been kidnapped, he’d rushed to have the bracelet made. He never wanted to feel the terror of almost losing her again.Â
But Nova only felt bitterness as she stared at the bracelet on her wrist.Â
Didn’t I call him? But he was with Sloane–too busy to care if I lived or died.Â
His heart wasn’t with her. This bracelet was just a useless trinket.Â
And she was done being his fool.Â
