The moment he heard the news, Russ rushed home. He looked Larissa over from head to toe. He checked her all over, making sure she truly wasn’t hurt. Only after he was certain did he finally breathe again.
“Larissa…”
He had just started to speak when she pulled him into the study and closed the door. Only then did she let him continue.
“Russ,I know what you’re going to say,” she said calmly. “Don’t worry. I’m fine.”
Her voice was light. As if the danger she had just faced was nothing at all.
What had she gone through in the past?
How could she staysocalm after something like that?
Russ was full of questions, but he didn’t push her.
Still, he would protect his sister from bullying.
She had him. She had the whole family behind her.
This wasn’t the first time the Turners had tried to kidnap her. But this time, they hadn’t just wanted to scare her. They had wanted her dead.
Jimmy said the men behind those thugs answered to someone named Wilmot.
If Wilmot dared to hurt Larissa, Russ would make sure he paid the price.
His voice turned serious. “No matter what, be careful when you go out from now on. I’ll handle Mr. Bennett,”
Larissa nodded. But deep down, she believed she could handle herself,
After making sure she wasfine, Russ immediately called Isaac. He told him that Larissa had almost been killed.
“It’s someone called Mr. Bennett,” Russ said. “You still have influence in Marcrest, right? I want this man erased. Completely.”
Isaac’sface grew solemn.
“You’re a doctor now,” Isaac said. “You shouldn’t get involved in this kind of thing. I’ll deal with him. Anyone who dares touch my sister has to get through me first.”
“You’ll handle it yourself?” Russ frowned. “Are you coming to Marcrest? Can your body handle that?”
Although Russ had heard thatIsaacwas almost fully recovered, he knew the truth about Isaac’s condition.Isaachad to be trying to reassure him.

Chapter 188 No One Messes With My Sister
He still didn’t believe Isaac was truly back to normal.
If someone hadn’t tried to take Larissa’s life this time, he would never have asked Isaac for help.

But this involved the underworld. It involved Wilmot. Russ had to be careful. He had to protect his family.
“When you see me, you’ll understand,” Isaac said. “I’ll make sure those who dared to hurt my sister are taken care of. From now on, I’ll protect our family.”
Isaac stood by the floor–to–ceiling window in his office on the fifty–something floor of a high–rise building.
He wore a perfectly tailored custom suit.
The office was decorated in simple monochrome colors. Clean lines. Cold tones. It matched his calm and distant nature.
He still held the phone he had just hung up.
Someone had the nerve to hurt his precious sister. That was asking for serious trouble.
Riley walked in with a stack of documents. The air in the office felt heavier than usual.
“Boss, these need your signature.”
Isaac took the files and said, “Prepare the private jet. We leave in five minutes.”
Riley froze for a second, then nodded quickly. “Got it, I’ll arrange it right away.”
She hurried out to make the arrangements.
His health had only just improved. The company was not fully stable yet. Where was he going?
She had many questions. Riley was worried about his health. But what right did she have to ask?
Being able to stay quietly by his side already felt like a gift from above.
Isaac set the documents down. His eyes turned cold.
He had dominated the business world for years. His methods were sharp and ruthless. He had only been injured two years ago. And now someone dared to touch his family–especially the lovely sister he cared
about most. This debt would be settled.
Soon,the private jet was ready. Isaac boarded the plane, with Riley following behind him. The aircraft took off and sped toward Marcrest.
At the same time, Wesley also received the news that Larissa had been surrounded and attac
