Chapter 22
Watching the man about to kiss Helen’s luscious lips, Carter could not longer control himself. He was crazy, trying to break free from the crowded people, exerting all his strength to rush towards her. He didn’t even care about the surprised looks of the guests around him.
“No, don’t!”
But as soon as his voice came out, it was instantly drowned out by the surrounding noise.
Carter became increasingly scared, and his voice grew hoarse.
The only thought screaming madly in his mind now was that the man couldn’t kiss her, they couldn’t get married!
It was his, it was his!
He was willing to pay any price, no matter what it took!
He also wanted to snatch Helen back!
He wanted to tell her how much he missed her during the days she was away; he wanted to tell her the truth about everything, he wanted to tell her that it was all over, he could come back to her side, they could continue living their days together, he wanted to tell her that he would protect her well in the future, and never let her get hurt again!
However, just as Carter was about to break through the crowd, two people dressed in military uniforms suddenly stood in front of him.
Chapter 22
“Sorry, you can’t come in.”
One of the soldiers reached out his hand, his tone polite yet. unquestionable.
Carter simply did not listen, pushing away the soldier’s hand while hist own voice carried a suppressed urgency.
Get out of the way, I want to see Helen, she is my wife!
The two soldiers paused for a moment, silently locking eyes with confusion in their gazes.
Was Helen his wife?
Not long ago, their Mr. Fletcher told them that Helen was Mrs. Fletcher.
And Mrs. Fletcher’s ex–husband had long since sacrificed his life in a
mission.
Even if you want to network indiscriminately, please don’t bring up the deceased, okay?
One of the bodyguards immediately turned around and looked back at Carter, with a hint of warning in his tone.
“Sorry, you still can’t come in. If you cause any more trouble, we will have to ask you to leave.”
Carter’s face darkened slightly, he had never been rejected repeatedly like this before.
If it had been in the past, he would have been angry long ago, but now this is not the Hoffman family, nor Los Angeles, he had to endure no
NICH
matter what.
Thinking about this, Carter clenched his hands and took a deep breath. “I really knew Helen.”
Can you compromise a bit and tell her that Carter wants to meet her?
In the end, Carter’s tone was filled with undeniable humility and pleading.
However, the two soldiers remained unmoved, like a cold wall, completely blocking him from reaching the door to see Helen.
The commotion here also began to attract the attention of the surrounding guests, and people started to whisper among themselves.
Some people had already recognized Carter, after all, the incident. where the youngest son of the Hoffman family pretended to be his older brother to court his sister–in–law had caused quite a stir.
Even made headlines in many newspapers, even on television news.
So much so that even the residents of these islands had heard about it.
Although Helen had not been on this island for long, it was enough for them to understand Helen’s character.
The thought of such a considerate girl being mistreated by Carter like this instantly angered the kind islanders, who all stood up for her.
How dare this person come to look for Ms. Spencer!
If I were you, I would just hang myself!
It’s really unlucky to encounter such a person during a big celebration,
Chapter 22
bah!

People became angrier and angrier, and finally someone couldn’t help but resort to violence!
“Bang!”
A strong gust of wind suddenly hit Carter, before he could react, someone punched him in the face!
“Dong!”
If it were in the past, Carter would naturally have been able to easily dodge this punch, but now, because of these things and searching for Helen, he has worn down his body and no longer has the same energy
as before.
Carter, caught completely off guard, was knocked to the ground.
Before he could catch his breath, the others rushed forward and began punching and kicking him.
Under the repeated kicks and blows, Carter almost heard the sound of his bones shattering.
They didn’t release him until everyone had calmed down.
Carter was lying on the ground, covered in blood, not moving at all.
After a while, he finally struggled to raise his hand to wipe away the blood at the corner of his mouth.
In order not to disturb the wedding inside, several strong men walked out of the crowd, dragging Carter and about to throw him out.
Roll, roll, roll, roll far away!
“Do not disturb Ms. Spencer anymore. If you dare to come again, we will beat you up every time we see you!”
“Get lost!”
