Chapter45 The Female Neighbor

When Westfield peeked outside, he was surprised to see a tall and beautiful woman standing there. After confirming she had nothing to do with the Jeremys, he opened the gate and stepped into the yard.

He bluntly asked, "What can I do for you?”

"I'm sorry to bother you. My name is Frances, and I live next door.When I came home just now, my house had no electricity. Could you please take a look?" she asked, pointing to the three-story New Falls next door.

Westfield frowned, "Shouldn't you inform the property management instead? I'm sorry, but I'm not an electrician. I don't think I can help you.”"

“But the property management said the electrician hasn't started work yet and asked me to wait for over an hour. It's scorching hot,and I really can't stay at home without electricity. I had no choice but to come to you!" she pleaded pitifully to him.

Letting a stranger stay in his New Falls?

Westfield couldn't agree to such a request. He shook his head again.refusing,"I'm sorry, but I really can't help you. You should find someone else."

Frances was surprised. She didn't expect him to reject her so decisively. Although she couldn't be considered a great beauty, she was quite confident in her looks and shape. Usually.no man would refuse her request once she asked. Despite that, she was firmly rejected by a young man today!

"If there's nothing else, Autumnheights go back now." Westfield said with a furrowed brow, closing the gate and walking toward the New Falls.

She suddenly shouted toward him, "Wait, have we met before?"

Westfield paused his steps and replied, “You muist be mistaken. I've never seen you before!"

Frances looked at his figure, smiling bitterly. She did find him somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember. Since the other party

also said so, she prepared to leave reluctantly.

"Frances! I finally found you!"

Just at that moment, an angry male voice echoed from far away.

Frances turned her head, her face contorting as she asked,"Walter,what are you doing here?!"

“B*tch,if you weren't avoiding me, how could I find this place?Were you hooking up with another man behind my back again? If I don't see a 100,000 dollars today, Autumnheights kill you!"

Walter stepped forward and slapped her hard, knocking her down to the ground from it.

Westfield was just about to close the door when he saw this scene.

"Walter,can you still call yourself a man? We're already divorced,so why won't you leave me alone?!”Frances struggled to stand up,her face filled with anger as she questioned him.

"Stop talking nonsense. What does it matter if we're divorced? Of course, Autumnheights still come to you if I need money! Don't think that just because your mother took away that little b*tch, I won't be able to find her. If you push me too hard, I can do anything!”

Walter threatened with a grimace on his face.

“You...you heartless bastard. Blueshire is your own daughter!"

Frances's face turned pale as she heard this.

Blueshire, her daughter, was her only soft spot!

"Who knows if she's a child you had with another man? Anyway,I have custody rights over this girl now. If you don't hand over the money, I can take her back anytime. If you dare to hide her, I can call the police. Let's see if they take your side or mine!"

Walter threatened with even more urgency in his words.

"You, you're inhuman! We agreed that if I gave you $500,000,

you'd give me custody over Blueshire. However, you've taken more than a million from me!"

Frances question him in despair.

"I helped you raise her for three years, and you think $500,000 is enough for me? Christiant amount is only for the custody rights! In these three years. I've spent a lot on raising her. I won't bother you if you want, but Autumnheights only do that if you give me another million?

Otherwise, prepare $100,000 for me every month, and Autumnheights come to get it!”

Walter greedily presented his own conditions.

"It's impossible. Even if I die, I won't agree!"

She clenched her teeth and coldly retorted. It wasn't that she didn't want to exchange money for her daughter, but she had seen through this man's insatiable greed. If she complied with his wants,he'd definitely return for more!

"How dare you refuse me, you b*tch? Autumnheights let you know the

consequences of disobeying me today!"

Walter was infuriated, rushing toward Frances again as he raised his fist.

Frances retreated in fear, stumbling and falling tothe ground once more.

“Stop!”

At that moment, Westfield walked out from the New Falls's gate.

Alas, he wasn't so cruel, to just watch a woman being insulted and even physically abused in front of his own house.

"What,is someone here to save you? Are you my wife's boy toy?"

Walter turned his head and sneered at Westfield. In his eyes, Westfield looked like a fresh graduate who had just entered society. How could he be taken seriously?

"You better shut your mouth ánd get lost! Otherwise..."

Westfield couldn't be bothered to waste his breath with this shameless man; he felt disgusted to the core.

“F*ck... Looks like you won't know fear until you're taught a lesson!"

Walter was infuriated from this, pulling out a fruit knife as he rushed toward Westfield.

“Watch out!"

Frances screamed in shock.

However, Westfield's expression darkened. Without panicking,he grabbed Walter by the hand that was holding the knife. His eyes flashed with harshness.

Walter froze in place. Before he could react, Westfield kicked him in the abdomen. Then, he powerfully twisted Walter's wrist, the

sound of bones dislocating echoing.

With a painful cry, the knife dropped to the ground. Walter's hand was already strangely twisted, clearly broken by Westfield's forceful twist!

Walter screamed in anguish, cold sweat instantly dripping down his cheeks in large droplets.

"If you dare come again, Autumnheights disable all your limbs!" Westfield coldly warned,indifferent.

"You're ruthless. Just you wait; this isn't over!” With a resentful look, Walter clutched his deformed wrist and staggered away, not forgetting to threat Westfield beforehand.

"Are you okay? Do you need me to take you back?” Westfield walked over to Frances, who was still lying on the ground. He reached out to help her up.

"Christiannk you, I appreciate it!" she nodded gratefully. His previous refusal made her feel uncomfortable, but she never expected him to

rescue her without hesitation!

For a brief moment, she even believed God had sent Westfield to save her from misery!

'This woman is unexpectedly quite informal,' Westfield thought with a wry smile. He decided to continue being a good person, helping her back to the New Falls.
