Please. Just let us go. We’ll disappear, okay? You won’t see us again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora smiled. Not kindly. It was the kind of smile that made your stomach drop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know,\" she said softly, \"if I go through the law, you might get away. You might use Adeline’s father. Maybe even blame someone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if I take care of you myself... well. Then I don’t have to worry about rules.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gave a signal with her fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two more bodyguards stepped forward, cracking their knuckles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry’s eyes went wide. \"Wait—NO—!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could say another word—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WHAM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A punch landed on his stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>THWACK!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another hit his face, making him stumble backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy screamed, but the second bodyguard didn’t hesitate. She got the same treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Punches. Kicks. Slaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both collapsed to the ground, groaning and crying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora stood there, watching coldly, her arms crossed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When both Henry and Lucy were knocked out cold, barely breathing, she gave her final order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dump them in a sketchy bar. Make sure there’s no camera around. No one should see anything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bodyguards nodded. \"Got it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh,\" she added. \"Make it believable. I want some extra people there. Loud music. A little fake fight. Enough so that when they wake up, no one believes their story.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pulled out her phone and made a quick call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get a few actors,\" she said. \"Make them play drunk guys. Start a fake brawl. Keep it messy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards picked up the unconscious Henry and Lucy and vanished into the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Henry groaned as his eyes blinked open. His head pounded, and every part of his body ached like he’d been run over by a truck. He looked around, confused. Sticky floors. Loud music. A strong smell of beer. They were in a bar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy was lying next to him, her face pale, a bruise on her cheek. She looked just as miserable as he felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry winced as he tried to sit up. \"Ugh... what happened last night?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know,\" Lucy muttered, rubbing her head. \"Everything hurts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry’s face twisted in anger as memories rushed back. Miss Dawn. Her cold eyes. The punches. The kicks. That evil smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m going to the police,\" he growled. \"She’s not getting away with this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up shakily, but just as he turned to leave—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BAM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man bumped into his shoulder hard, almost knocking him over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Watch it!\" Henry snapped. \"You blind or what?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man turned around, glaring. He was tall. Muscular. Tattooed arms. Not someone you’d want to mess with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you just say to me?\" the man barked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry stepped back slightly, realizing the guy was huge. But before he could explain—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You got a big mouth for someone with a sissy little body,\" the man said, puffing out his chest. \"You one of those fake tough guys, huh? All bark, no bite?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry’s face turned red. He was tired. He was sore. And now this guy was calling him weak?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not a chicken!\" Henry yelled, and without thinking, he threw a punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man stumbled, but then grinned. \"Oh, so we’re doing this now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SMACK!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A light punch landed on Henry’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>POW! Another hit his arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t too hard, but after the beating from yesterday, Henry felt like he was about to faint. Pain shot through his body with every small hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy, still dizzy, was dragged away by two other drunk guys pretending to beat her. She screamed in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Henry!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry panicked. He tried to fight back, kicking and punching wildly. The crowd cheered, thinking it was just another bar fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Somehow, Henry got lucky. His punches landed just right. He knocked the man to the floor. Bloody nose. Bruised eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other guys backed off quickly, and Henry grabbed Lucy’s hand. \"Let’s get out of here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They limped out of the bar, their clothes messy, their faces bruised. Henry was fuming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stormed into the police station and slammed his hand on the counter. \"I want to report a crime!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer looked up lazily. \"Yeah? What happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was attacked by Miss Dawn’s people yesterday. She gave the order herself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer’s eyes widened. \"Miss Dawn? You mean Miss Dawn? The rich investor lady with the private jets and everything?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry nodded quickly. \"Yes! Her! She ordered her guards to beat me and my sister. It’s all true!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cop sat up straighter. He looked interested now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm... If you’re telling the truth, this could be big. Really big. Maybe even get me a promotion...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry and Lucy were led into a private room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer asked him to explain everything. Henry told the story—but left out the part where he slapped Adeline. Instead, he said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was visiting my ex, Adeline, about some court stuff. We were talking peacefully when Miss Dawn barged in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her brother is dating Adeline, and when Adeline said I still liked her, Miss Dawn went crazy. She told her men to attack me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer took notes, nodding. \"Alright. I’ll look into it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But by the afternoon, his smile was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked into the room, his face annoyed, holding a folder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here’s the investigation report,\" he said coldly, slamming it on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry leaned forward, confused. \"What...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It says here you were involved in a drunk bar fight this morning,\" the officer said. \"Witnesses, security outside, even your face on camera.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is me, but they were the ones who had instigated me first,\" Henry yelled. \"I don’t even remember going to the bar! It’s a setup! It’s Miss Dawn! She planned it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer rolled his eyes. \"Maybe she planned it in your dreams.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up and pointed to the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get out. Don’t waste police time with your crazy stories.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry and Lucy were shoved outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy clutched her arm and looked up at him. \"What do we do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1005,"2026-06-06T04:03:40.623Z",1,"novelbin.me","edf4b2408ded158a62cc814fbc7204905a216619e232d064c630459237d71e02","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-169","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-167",614,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fborn-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-cover.jpg"]
