The men on both sides closed in on her. Seeing this, Sonya quickly reached into her bag for her phone,
but before she could pull it out, a tall, skinny young man rushed over, snatched her bag, and flung it against the wall.
"Sis, don't you recognize me?"
Hearing him call her "Sis," Sonya was momentarily stunned. She took a closer look at his face and realized it was Jack.
He had shed the thinness of his youth, grown taller and stockier, with a dark complexion, a buzz cut, and a scruffy outfit of ripped jeans and a faded jacket. His toothy grin made him look like a troublemaker. "I'm not your sister, Sonya said coldly.
Jack sneered, "Oh, how impressive you are, the former wealthy socialite. Even though you're divorced, you must have
walked away with billions. No wonder you look down on us poor relatives."
Sonya ignored him, picked up her bag, and tried to leave, but the men he brought blocked her path. "What do you want?"
Jack tilted his head and smirked. "Guess."
"If you want money, I won't give you a single cent."
I'm not here for your money."
"Then what do you want?"
"To teach you a lesson."
Sonya was speechless upon his answer.
Jack stepped closer."I just can't stand you, and I want to beat you up!"
I've never done anything to you," Sonya frowned.
"How haven't you? We share the same father, so why do you get to live well while I don't?" "That's your reason?"
"Of course!" Jack spat."And there's more. You've disrespected my grandma and my parents!" "Do you know they're asking me for money?"
"You should just give it to them."
"You say you don't want my money, but in the end, it's all about money."
"Why am I even wasting my breath? I'm here to beat you up today!"
Struck a nerve, Jack, now furious, swung his fist at Sonya.
Sonya dodged to the side and, gripping the brick she had picked up earlier, smashed it toward Jack's forehead.
Jack hadn't expected Sonya to have a brick. He didn't dodge and took the full blow. Blood gushed out, and the others were so shocked they froze in place.
Sonya bit her lower lip hard, her eyes locked on Jack.
Earlier, while picking up her bag, she had grabbed a brick from the ground and hidden it behind her back.
Henry had once told her, "If you're in danger and can't run, strike first and strike hard to intimidate your opponent."
Not only had he said it, but he had also taken her to a boxing gym a few times. Back then, she thought she'd never need to fight, but now it had come in handy.
And swimming-she hadn't known how before, but Henry had taught her, saying it could save her life in

He had taught her these skills back in Natalia's small town. Perhaps even then, he had superel Zoey will dise and feared she might harm Sonys, en he prepared her with use wif-defrose rockeringues. "What are you idiots standing around for? Get her?" Jack chuched beforehead, Mood dripping through his fragen, his face twisted in pain as he shouted at his lackeys.
The three

men weren't exactly afraid of Sonya, so
Sonya took a deep breath and raised the brick, ready to wash whomer case
The three men glanced at each other, none of them eager to be the firm to take the hit "Idiots, all three of you go at her together! Jack yelled at them.
The three men, clearly annoyed at being called "idiots," shot Jack a pare
Jack coughed awkwardly "Help me, and I'll treat you to a feast afterward."
The three men were easily bribed and turned back to surround Sonya
"I've memorized all three of your faces. Either you kill me today, or I'll send all of you to jail" Sonya said resoundly Hearing this, the three men quickly covered their faces.
They were young, and though they had taken this path, they lacked the experience and courage to stand up to Sonya's threat.
Just then, someone entered the alley.
"What are you doing?"
The newcomer was tall and imposing. At his shout, the three men, already hesitant, turned and fled in the opposite direction.
"Hey, why are you running? Get her!"
Jack couldn't stop them. Seeing that he was now alone and badly injured, he knew he was at a
disadvantage Furious, he shouted at Sonya, "You just wait! This isn't over!"
With that, he turned and ran.
Seeing them all flee, Sonya let out a long sigh of relief and dropped the brick to the ground
"Are you okay?"
The tall man approached, and Sonya realized it was Brian.
"Prof. Wesley, what are you doing here?"
His timing was impeccable.
Brian shrugged and called over his shoulder, "Milton, come here."

the call
Milton, who had been hiding at the entrance of the alley, ran over
"Aunt Sonya, Dad bought me SO many dolls. I picked the cutest one to give to you"
Milton held up the plush toy for Sonya to see.
Sonya quickly took the toy and kissed Milton on the forehead. Thank you, sweetheart."
Not only had he given her a toy, but he had also saved her.
"I tried calling you but couldn't get through. Since your new clinic is near my place, I thought I'd bring him over to see if we'd run into you. Didn't expect this bonus, Brian said.
"Thank you," Sonya said sincerely.
"Honestly, you were pretty impressive. You already had those thugs scared. I just shouted a bit,* Brian said.

Sonya smiled."Looks like I need to keep up with the boxing lessons. They came in handy." To thank the father and son, Sonya treated them to a barbecue.
Brian seemed out of place at this street-side stall, awkward and unsure of how to eat the skewers. Sonya watched as he meticulously removed the lamb pieces from the skewer, placed them on a plate, and even asked the owner for a set of tableware. When Sonya told him they only had forks, he reluctantly took one and started eating.
"Have you never had a barbecue before?"
Brian

think this kind of smoky, grilled food is healthy."
"Studies show that barbecue contains carcinogens like benzopyrene and heterocyclic amines. Excessive consumption can increase the risk of colorectal cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer, and other diseases. Plus, too much fat intake can lead to hyperlipidemia, fatty liver, obesity, coronary heart disease, and other chronic metabolic disorders..."
"Stop, stop, stop. I'm a doctor. I know all this."
Brian nodded. "So I'm advising you to eat less of it in the future."
Sonya glanced around. The other customers, happily eating and drinking, were annoyed by his comments. Sonya smiled apologetically at the other customers, then turned to Brian. "You said it yourself- it's about excess. Eating a little is fine. Besides, life is meant to be enjoyed. If you spend your whole life being this cautious, where's the fun?"
"I don't agree. There are plenty of joys in life that don't harm your health."
"Like what?"
"Reading, music, traveling. Oh, and I've been doing daily meditation lately. You should try it. It's great for cultivating inner peace."
Sonya was speechless. They hadn't interacted much before, so she hadn't known Brian had such a side. While they were eating, Jake called her.
"Sonya, Lily had an accident on set. Come to the hospital quickly."
