Then without giving Ruby a chance of saying anything, he grabbed her hand. At the same time, he said, "It seems that you have already decided. It is the second option."
Ruby had not expected such an action from him. She panicked immediately as she struggled to remove her hand from his grasp. But no matter how much she tried, she could not win against him in terms of strength.
She struggled with all her might, despite knowing that she was not going to be able to escape from his grasp, unless he let her go. At the same time, she kept on shouting at him, "Let me go right now! If you know what is good for you, you better let me go right now!"
"And what if I don't let you go? What are you going to do?" The man looked at her with a contemptuous smile. It was clear that he did not care about what she was saying. As for the threat that she was giving, that was the one that he cared about the least.
With the power that he possessed, together with the influence, it was impossible for somebody else to be able to come and rescue her. Since he had targeted her, then it was her fate to be his woman.
Everything would have been better for her if she had just agreed. But in the end, she had to force him to come over and deal with her personally. How many women out there would throw themselves at him? But of course, he could not just accept anybody.
She should feel that she was lucky considering that he had personally targeted her. Yet, she was not appreciating the opportunity given to her at all. And since that was the case, she would have to pay for the arrogance that she had.
Realizing that it was going to be futile for her to continue struggling like that, she immediately tried attacking. But no matter how much she attacked, it did not seem like the man was going to react at all.
It seems that the punches that she was throwing using her free hand were just a slight tickle to him. He was completely ignoring them. Realizing that, she immediately targeted his vital area, where she was sure that he was going to be hurt.
But just as the knee was approaching the area, it was easily blocked by the man's other hand. At this moment, his expression was extremely cold. He looked at Ruby and said, "You should have appreciated the fact that I did not send my subordinates to come over and pick you up. Instead, it is me, second tiger that came over to do it personally.
But now that you are not appreciating the effort that I have put in to show my sincerity, then I have no choice but to make sure that you pay for it." Second tiger said.
Then without hesitation, he slapped Ruby across the face. He did not hold back at all, and the moment that the slap landed on Ruby's face, he released her hand.
Due to the strength behind the slap, Ruby was suddenly forced to stumble backwards. She almost collapsed onto the ground, but managed to remain standing after a little struggle.
At this moment, her left cheek had already taken a crimson color, and there were signs of swelling. The palm mark could be clearly seen on her cheek.
Ruby on the other hand was incensed. It was just that she was not sure on what to do right now. As for the matter of submitting to him, that was never going to happen.
To her, it was better to die, rather than submitting to such a scum. So, she began looking around, showing intentions of trying to run away.
Second tiger on the other hand was amused when he saw her not submitting despite him hitting her. And to say the truth, he could not help but be impressed by her ability. Most of the time, when women faced such a situation, facing a man whom they could not deal with, they would mostly submit, or cry and shout for help.
But for Ruby, other than asking him to leave her, she did not scream for help at all. Instead, she had been struggling all alone, trying to make sure that she was released by him.
And even after he had slapped her without holding back, she did not scream at all. Additionally, she did not submit, instead, she was still relentless about getting away from him.
At this point, he could not help but think that if Ruby became his woman, he would have definitely treated her well. It would not be impossible for him to grant her a very good position within the gang.
She was such a strong woman, and with her capability, it was not impossible for her to be able to help him in managing the gang. But now, that was impossible. Since she did not agree, it was impossible for him to give her that position.
If he did so, she might end up betraying him. So, the only fate that she had right now was to become his woman whether she liked it or not. As for rights, she would not have any.
Ruby on the other hand realized that it was impossible for her to get out of the office. There was only one window behind her, and the door was behind second tiger. So, if she wanted to get out, she would have to use the window to jump out.
But since she was currently on the top floor, it was impossible for her to use the window. After all, if she jumped out, she would only end up dying.
She thought about her options, and finally realized that there was only one option left. Then without hesitating, she immediately dashed towards the window.
Second tiger on the other hand was immediately dumbfounded by what Ruby did. He had not expected that she was going to take such an extreme measure in order to escape him. He understood that if she jumped out of the window, then that was the end of her story.
Having already set his eyes on her, he could not let her just die like that. So, after just about a second, he reacted and rushed towards her.
Unlucky for Ruby, the window was closed. And by the time that she was done opening it, and was just about to jump out of the window, she was suddenly grabbed tightly by thick arms. Then before she could even react, she was suddenly thrown back into the office.
Bang!
She slammed heavily onto the ground. She could not help but groan in pain. Second tiger was not lenient in the least when he threw her backwards.
With his eyes filled with anger, second tiger approached Ruby. "I never thought that you were going to do something like that. I already told you that once I set my eyes on a woman, she can never escape from me, even by the use of death."
"Unless I let you die, you will never die!" Second tiger made a bold declaration. And in just a few seconds, he had already arrived in front of Ruby.
Then grabbing her by her hair, he pulled her from the ground. Ruby grimaced in pain, but she did not let out any other sound. But in her heart, she was regretting. She was regretting that she did not put much effort in her training. Otherwise, had she worked hard, she would have definitely been able to easily deal with this guy and escape from him.
Even if she was going to be haunted by the gang that he belonged to, it was better than being humiliated like this. Nevertheless, she decided that she was not going to resist for the time being. But when an opportunity arose, she would definitely seize it.
She possessed so many options. If an opportunity to run presented itself, she would definitely take it. And if there was an opportunity to kill herself, she would take it. But of course, it would be even better if there was an opportunity for her to be able to deal with the second tiger.
It was only by dealing with him that she would be able to escape the fate that he was planning for her. Even if she was going to end up running away while being hunted madly, it was better than ending up in second tiger's hands.
"Where is your room? I had initially been planning to take you back to my residence, but it seems it is going to be impossible for the time being. So, we can start right here." Second tiger asked as he looked around.
Of course, since his subordinates had been around, he understood that sometimes, Ruby would sleep here. That indicated that there was a bedroom somewhere.
Ruby on the other hand could not help but panic. She looked around, trying to find anything that she could use, but to her despair, everything that he could use to counter attack second tiger was far away from where she was.
Second tiger, upon realizing that Ruby was not going to respond, he simply pulled her along, as he left the office. He was about to start looking for a room among all the rooms present on the top floor, when suddenly, one of his subordinates rushed over.
Second tiger could not help but frown upon seeing that. With anger clear in his voice, he asked, "What is it? I already told you that I don't want to be disturbed unless there is something urgent."

The man who had come over was sweating all over. It was not only due to him climbing the stairs at a rapid speed, but it was also due to him being afraid of second tiger.
After swallowing hard, he responded as fast as he could. "Boss second tiger, we have bad news. The group that was sent to deal with a certain company has been beaten up. They came back all injured."
