Someone who had just come out of hiding nodded firmly to the leader of the group, dressed in a black suit.

“You can entrust everything to me, because I believe in this firmly. In fact, I guarantee my head for all of you,” he said.

“Huh, you’re so confident!” Russell replied.

The man just nodded, and sure enough, even raised his hand to show that he was unarmed. From his appearance, the man did not show that he was a security officer. Actually, the man dressed in all white, complete with his coat.

The man was Peter Hughes, who had caused a ruckus with Nicko. Nobody knows what made him willing to offer a help to Russell.

Peter took his smartphone from his trouser pocket immediately and opened the Hall Enterprise security website. The man pointed out how Master Hall was in the lobby of their pavilion, then a

We don’t even have a professional relationship, do we?” Nicko replied coldly.Janet was silent still, she didn’t expect that her father plan had failed miserably; she thought it well prepared. Janet, who used to get her wish easily since she was a child also looked disappointed.Right now, she was standing wearing her underwear only and her lips pursed.

Screaming like an insane person?”Janet screamed even louder, Instead of answering Nicko’s question, sometimes her screams were interspersed with sobs.“Help! Help me!” Janet shouted again.Shortly after hearing the scream, there was the sound of the front door opening harshly, followed by footsteps leading to the bedroom. The pavilion room where the two of them are located has a separate bedroom from the living room, so that the guest who are staying have more privacy.By Hearing that voice, Nicko finally knew what Janet’s scream meant.

He looked so hungry; he wanted to kill the two of them.“How dare you!” he shouted at the two who were trying to attack Nicko.One of the Hall family guards pointed his index finger at Nicko intending to humiliate him.“This bastard really deserves to be minced meat for us, because he has done something indecent to Miss Hall,” the blond guard shouted.Meanwhile, Janet just sat quietly. She hadn’t even covered herself with the blanket that lay, even though Nicko had tried to remind her.

Only a few people saw her in her pink underwear, and that made her very embarrassed.

It's good that this sounds painful to you. At least this way you will know who you are dealing with, and you can think again about betraying my daughter!”Watson, you! Nicko rage. This time he was really angry that he couldn't say anything else. His hands began to clench tightly and cursed at the man who called him. No one ever thought that Robert Watson, Camilla's father, was involved in kidnapping his wife and child now.“You bastard Watson, what do you want! I warned you that I would never betray your daughter. It was just a silly game in childhood!” Nick replied.“Silly childhood game you say?

In the past, he underestimated the Watson family because they had an economy class below him.Especially with Nicko, he had never taken the young man into account at all. Precisely thinks Nicko is like a pest that must be eradicated immediately. But now he is the pest. Even Chuck who became his ally also blamed him.“Chuck, you don't think about me anymore? Don't you remember our previous good relationship?" asked Master Young in a voice that sounded quivering with sorrow.Chuck shook his head and said again, “Didn't you hear what my uncle said earlier? We Watsons absolutely do not welcome a liar. Now you better get out of here!”"Chuck you,—" Andrew no longer continued his words.

At that time he had seen the ravaged state. Everything was full of trash and no one was there.He walked unsteadily, but suddenly a waiter came to chase him, "Sorry Mr. Young, this is the bill for tonight's event!"It was then that Andrew Young immediately patted his forehead and muttered that he had almost forgotten the bill he had to pay off.

But their positions were too far away and it was impossible for her to scream.Even if he had shouted for their help, before Chuck had come here he would have been battered and bruised.Now all he could do was bully his former bodyguard again into protecting him. The bodyguards he had dismissed were a bunch of chubby bums. By giving them even a glimmer of hope, they would definitely move to protect him, no matter how difficult the obstacles he had to face.“Hey you guys, quickly save me! Do your duty as a bodyguard.

    Andrew Young smiled and shook his head, “Of course not sir. That price is a very commensurate price for what you get.”“Humph, you must want to rob us by paying such a large fee! I don't want to buy!” exclaimed one of the visitors.Andrew Young smiled sarcastically and said, “I have no intention of robbing you. I set a fair price as you can see at Mr. Watson's birthday party, and also the changes in me. You all have even touched me and felt the difference.
