Chapter 22
“H-He’s not my friend, but he’s a regular, so we got acquainted, but that’s all. He is a Bronze VIP after all.” Gerald quickly cut all ties with Nate. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
He wasn’t stupid enough to get on William’s bad side. William’s family owned the whole hotel, and he was working for them. If I get on his bad side, I’m going to get fired. And Master William’s getting angry now. Nate, you f*cking moron. If I get fired because of you, I’ll kill you!
“He’s a Bronze VIP? Cancel his membership, and if I see him in the hotel next time, you’re getting fired!” William growled.
“Yes, sir. Of course, sir.” Gerald was sweating in fear. I’m lucky Master William didn’t blame me for what’s going on, or it would have cost me my job.
“Dammit! F*ck them up, men!” Fury had engulfed Nate’s entire being. Who the hell does he think he is? God? He thinks he can cancel my membership just like that? As if!
“Charge!” Gerald ordered the guards to attack as well.
The two teams fell into a brawl, but the battle’s outcome was obvious. Nate’s men were strong, but the guards outnumbered them two to one, so they all fell in two minutes.
Nate was rooted to the ground, veins popping on his forehead. He cursed, “Damn you, Gerald! You’re a traitor! How could you let your men attack my men?”
Gerald spat. I’d be a traitor if I helped you fight my own employer’s son.
Thomas darted toward Wallace and smiled at him before kicking him to the ground.
“Not so tough now, are you?” Thomas stepped on Wallace’s head and looked down at him like he was trash. “I didn’t do anything to you. All I did was win in the chase for Felice, and that was about ten years
ago. But you just had to hold a grudge against me, and you wanted to step on me too? Well, looks like it’s time for a lesson in life.”
“Just let it slide, Thomas,” someone with a silvery voice blurted.
Thomas turned around to see who was talking, and it was none other than Melissa. “Let it slide?” He sneered. “Why didn’t you tell him that when he was very nearly going to deck me?” he asked coldly.
“But that didn’t happen, did it? Then there was no need for me to speak up,” Melissa retorted.
“Oh, so by that logic, you would have stood up if I was beaten up? If that were to happen, what use would it be even if you had spoken up, though? No, wait. There is a use. To make yourself look good.”
“You…” Melissa couldn’t argue back. She never expected Thomas to shoot back at her without mercy.
And then Thomas broke both of Wallace’s legs.
A scream of pain and agony pierced the air.
Thomas then turned to Nate. “Your turn. I let you go the last time, but you didn’t appreciate my kindness. Very well. I will show you no mercy this time.”
Nate’s lips twitched. How dare you break my lackey’s legs right in front of me? That’s disrespectful! And when he was reminded of the fact that Thomas broke his fingers as well, his fury mounted.
That fury led to him coming up with a wicked plan. He whipped out a dagger from behind and brandished it at Thomas. “I’ll kill you!”
He raised his weapon and charged at Thomas, but Thomas easily dodged it by stepping back.
However, Nate wasn’t aiming at Thomas in the first place. That attack was a feint, and the moment Thomas dodged, Nate ran for the door.
Nate was no fool. Even if he managed to injure Thomas, the guards could still swarm him in an instant. I need to back off and wait for an opening to get back at them.
“Olivia!”
However, something unexpected happened. Nate charged ahead without looking while holding a dagger in his hand and stabbed a lady in the stomach by accident.
Everyone was dumbfounded. There’s a fight going on here. You can’t just waltz by. Wait. We’re blocking the hallway though, so this is the only way through.
“What are you doing?” The lady’s sister pushed Nate away and held the lady’s wound.
Nate froze in his steps for a moment. He might be a thug, but that didn’t mean he would try to harm anyone anytime he wanted to, much less take their lives.
When Sean saw who the lady was, he gasped, “Holy sh*t, it’s Olivia!”
Thomas was stupefied as well. Why is she here? Oh wait, she didn’t go home after work. Said she had something to do. I guess it’s having dinner with her sister here.
“What? That’s Olivia?”
“Izzy, she’s your company’s president, isn’t she?”
“The famous lady boss of Irieson. Graduated with an MBA from Harvard at eighteen and took over the Pearson Group after she came back.”
Thomas’ classmates kept talking about Olivia despite the fact that she was stabbed. Most of them had only heard of her name, and this was their first time seeing her. As beautiful as they say.
“Quick! Take her to the hospital!” William ordered the guards to evacuate the people.
“Olivia, are you alright?” Olivia’s sister was starting to cry. No matter how hard she tried, blood just wouldn’t stop flowing out.
We didn’t even do anything wrong. We were just having dinner and a chat. Just when we were about to leave, this happened. Ophelie wanted to kill Nate.
“Piss off!” Thomas approached Olivia and tried to pick her up.
“F*ck off!” Ophelie bristled like a lioness and slapped Thomas. Who the hell are you? Why are you trying to touch Olivia, you loser? Look in the mirror. She’s way out of your league.
Thomas glared at Ophelie, but this was a dire circumstance, so he let it slide. He took Olivia’s brooch off and pierced the needle into one of Olivia’s acupuncture points on her belly. After that, her blood flow slowed to a crawl.
