Adaline tilted back her head in preparation to drink.Suddenly, Adrian snatched the glass from her and said, “Don’t drink if you don’t want to. No one here can force you to drink without your consent.”Adaline was instantly panic-stricken as Adrian poured the contents of the glass onto the floor.The people at the scene were astounded. They had not expected Adaline’s deadbeat brother to pour away Harry’s drink.On the other side of the table, Harry was clearly infuriated upon witnessing this scene. He pointed at Adrian and asked Kevan, “Kev, who’s this?”Kevan scoffed. “He’s Ada’s elder brother and also Samantha Cowell’s husband. He’s the guy who pretended to be a big shot in the city yesterday.”“Hey, deadbeat. That was really bold of you. How dare you pour away Harry’s drink!”“F*ck you! Bow down and apologize to Harry right now! Otherwise, you won’t be spared!” Stella knew that Kevan and Harry were good friends so she angrily reprimanded Adrian on behalf of Harry.Adaline al
Adaline was at a loss and did not know what to do.She anxiously said, “My brother doesn’t know his place, Harry. Please don’t lower yourself to his level. Here, I’ll agree to be your girlfriend!”Harry's ego blew up upon hearing Adaline’s offer. The more fearful she was, the more it signified that Adrian was a deadbeat. He decided to show due respect to Adaline after she had expressed hers.Harry waved dismissively. “That won’t do. I won’t consider anyone’s feelings in this matter. Not even yours, Ada. I insist on teaching him a lesson today.”Harry stood up and walked toward Adrian.“Great, I agree. Before anything else, let’s give this peasant a good beating,” Stella cheered.The group chimed in, “We support you, Harry!”Harry smiled. He was the star of today. Everyone’s focus was on him. He would be humiliated if he allowed this peasant to disrespect him.“Please, Harry!” Adaline tried to stand in Harry’s way to stop him from hitting Adrian.“Come here, Ada!” Stella pulled
Harry was the nephew of the underworld’s Bo “Boxchamp” Lynch. He was renowned in the underworld for his fighting skills.However, he was blown away while Adrian remained completely unscathed.‘What the heck is going on?’Everyone was dumbfounded and they were confused over what just transpired.Harry was puzzled as well. He did not see Adrian move at all, yet he felt a painful sensation in his waist before he was instantly blown away.“What the heck is going on?” Harry was astounded.The rest of the group widened their eyes in shock as well.Kevan quickly helped Harry to his feet. “What the heck happened to you, Harry? How did you get blown away?”Stella was stunned. “Harry, what’s with you?”“I missed, I missed.”Even though Harry could not figure out what had happened, he was right about missing.Everyone was doubtful upon hearing that Harry said he had missed.‘Even if you missed, you couldn’t have missed so badly that you got blown away, right? If you missed, shouldn’t
‘Get his uncle to come? Isn’t his uncle the original underworld boxing champion, Bo “Boxchamp” Lynch?’Bo was of high status in the underworld. Even though he was a businessman now, he was still held in high regard.If he were to come, Adrian would be made to pay for his action, right?The group was relieved upon hearing that Harry was getting Bo to come over.Stella chuckled and said, “That deadbeat must have grown strong and brutish from being in the construction profession. That’s why Harry is no match for him. He’s doomed now that Bo is coming.”Yes, that was the only explanation for this situation. She heard that one could get strong by working manual labor jobs at construction sites.Kevan said, “How dare a brat who does manual labor in construction sites for years fight against Harry. We’re in for a good show.”The group smiled because they needed not to be afraid now that Harry was bringing over Bo. After all, Bo was a big shot.“We’re going to get a good show today.”
In their opinion, not only Adrian would be doomed when Bo got here. Perhaps Adaline and her sister-in-law, Samantha, would become Harry’s playthings too.The men in the group envied Harry. They were jealous because Adaline and her sister-in-law were the rare beauties of Swallowston.Adaline held tightly onto Adrian’s hand as she listened to the conversation around her. She kept her head lowered. Her pearly whites clenched tight as she trembled. She regretted coming here with Stella.Suddenly, a commotion was heard coming from outside the hotel. The group was puzzled and did not know what was happening.Kevan motioned for one of the waiters and asked, “You there, what’s going on outside the hotel? What’s with the chaos and noise?”The waiter explained, “Our company’s president came and notified us to escort out all of the restaurant’s guests earlier. The hotel has also been sealed off. It seems that something bad has happened to the hotel. However, your group is the only exception.
At last, the waiter opened the door of the private room.Soon afterward, Bo dressed in a suit walked into the room. Behind him was Kevan’s father, Julian. A large group of bodyguards followed them into the room as well.The entire private room was boiling over with excitement because of these people’s arrival. The group was emotional, excited, and anxious.Suddenly, everyone got up from their seats and perked up.Harry said in excitement, “You’re here, Uncle Bo! Uncle Julian, what have I done to deserve someone like you to support me today?“I’m really grateful!”Harry extended his hand proudly toward Kevan’s father.He had not expected to have such a powerful connection. Then, he said excitedly, “Sorry for troubling you today, Uncle Julian. This deadbeat is abominable and you must punish him properly.”Meanwhile, Kevan saw his father, Julian from the other side and called out, “Father.”Julian nodded.On the other hand, Stella said, “Hello, Mr. Zahn. I’m Kevan’s girlfriend,
Realizing that Adrian still sounded so stubborn, Adaline panicked. “Uncle Julian, Uncle Bo, I’m truly sorry that my brother is so ignorant. Please forgive him and let him go.“He didn’t do it on purpose!”Bo and Julian’s eyes darted toward Adaline in unison. However, it was very apparent that they could not be bothered by her plea.Meanwhile, Bo said, “I don’t care if he did it on purpose or not. My whole life, I’ve thoroughly loathed dealing with trivial matters. Since he’s so stubborn, I’m going to let him experience the consequences of being conceited today.“Don’t touch his legs so that I can break them!” commanded Bo.“Please allow me to make a call before you beat me up,” said Adrian as he smiled.Bo was slightly taken aback. Next to him, Harry sneered and said, “Why? Are you trying to get someone to help you? Hahaha, who’s going to come for someone like you?”Kevan burst out laughing as well.Stella covered her mouth and chuckled incessantly. “That’s really funny. You da
“Hahaha, it’s the…”Julian burst out laughing when he heard the voice, but before he could even finish his sentence, the arrogant smile on his face crumpled.Even Bo, Kevan, Stella, Harry, and the rest were stupefied, while Skylar just stood there, frozen.At that moment, a young man in a military uniform walked into the room with more than a dozen escorts behind him. He possessed a powerful presence, emanating a terrifying demeanor as though he demanded respect from others around him.This very person was Lucas Jenner, the battle warrior of Dragonshire!To top it all off, this god-like man even had Southrive’s General Summers behind him, hitting Bo and Julian with a double whammy.Neither Bo nor Julian seemed as arrogant as they were before. Instead, they humbled themselves so much as they respectfully said, “Mr. Lucas, it’s such an honor to meet you!”“It really is an honor to meet you, Mr. Lucas!”The atmosphere was so intense that everyone felt their jaws drop. None of them
