Your Love Is My Weapon novel Chapter 154

"I have a presumptuous request."

Mr. Swift felt a little shame-making. After all, it didn't seem appropriate to ask her to take care of his grandson who was a little…

"Mr. Swift, just say it if there is anything I can do," Arya said this not because Joshua had saved her, but because the people in this family were simple and kind.

Mr. Swift breathed a sigh of relief. "I hope you can help us take care of Joshua when we die."

He thought Arya might not be willing to do this and quickly added, "If you think it's inconvenient for you…"

Mr. Swift's face was full of wrinkles which were like mottled marks on the wall. Those wrinkles were the footprints of the passing time.

Looking at Mr. Swift, Arya said, "Rest assured. I'll treat him well, no matter whether I recall the past in the future."

Then, Arya's voice became soft as she squatted down to hold Mr. Swift's wrinkled hand. "You will live a long life."

The old tended to be emotional. Mr. Swift smiled and the wrinkles on his face deepened. He said sincerely, "Thank you."

"We are family."

She was grateful that they saved her and took her in.

Mr. Swift nodded.

Early the next morning, when they were about to go to the sea, some people stopped them.

It was Zack and his minions. It could be said that Zack was the local emperor of the Aqua Village. No one dared to offend him.

Zack was the only son in the Anderson Family. Everyone in the Anderson Family treated Zack like a treasure.

Zack ran rampant in the village. No one dared to stop him. Even the local officials had to show him respect.

"Where are you going?"

Zack was looking at Arya. Although Arya was thin, she was still beautiful and sexy. Her face was exquisite and fair, and her skin was as white as a piece of jade.

Zack was absorbed in Arya's beauty.

Arya didn't know who was in front of her, but Mr. Swift knew. He deliberately pushed Arya behind him and went forward. "We're going to the sea."

Zack thought Mr. Swift was hindering him, so he reached out and pushed him aside. "Don't get in my way. Go ahead and leave this woman behind."

Worry flashed in Mr. Swift's eyes but he still smiled. "Mr. Zack, this is my relative's daughter. She came to help me. How can I leave her behind?"

"Then tell your relative that I like her and want to keep her by my side." As Zack spoke, he reached out to pull Arya. "Come with me. No need to go to the sea. It's so dangerous and it stinks. Follow me. I'll let you wear and eat the best."

Arya dodged, feeling disgusted.

Zack's hand stopped in mid-air. He felt awkward, "Do you know who I am? There are lots of women who want to be with me. It's your honor that I like you."

"She doesn't like you!" Joshua stepped forward and protected Arya behind him.

Joshua's movements blocked Zack's view.

Zack couldn't stand being rejected.

He punched Joshua. "Idiot, are you courting death?"

Zack raised his eyebrows, wiped the corner of his mouth, looked at Arya, and grinned. "You come with me, and I'll let him go. Okay?"

"No way!"

Before Arya could say anything, Joshua said

The air around them froze instantly.

Zack pointed at Joshua. "Then let's wait and see!" He left in anger.

Arya pulled Joshua back to the yard, made him sit on the stool, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Zack was strong. Joshua's lips were broken.

Mr. Swift sat on the stool. He put his hands on his legs feebly and sighed. Arya saw that Mr. Swift's expression was not good. She hesitated and asked, "Mr. Swift, what happened?"

"Zack is rich and powerful in the Aqua Village. He always gets the woman he likes. And Joshua had a fight with him just now. I'm afraid that he will take revenge." Mr. Swift's hand trembled.

Zack did a lot of evil things to get the woman he wanted.

Just a few months ago, he took a fancy to the girl in the neighborhood. He brought his men to take her away and crippled the girl's father.

Mr. Swift stood up and went back. He took out the money he had saved over the years and handed the bankbook to Arya. "Take Joshua away for now. Don't come back until Zack forgets about you."

Arya didn't take it. She couldn't leave the old couple behind.

"I can't leave you. We're family."

This trouble was caused by her. If it hadn't been for her, the Swift Family wouldn't have been in trouble.
