The man looked very angry, and judging from the clothes he was wearing and the large gold chain around his neck, he must be a nouveau riche. He probably had some money, bought a house in City P, and probably went rogue.
He shoved the manager aside, looked at Leo and said angrily, âWho are you? Mind your own business!â
Who was Leo? If he wanted to kill a man, he had plenty of cold and grim means. He kicked in the manâs bulging belly and said nothing, giving the man no chance to rebel.
And without hesitation, he kicked the man straight in the groin, âYou like that, right? If you say one dirty word, Iâm gonna kick your ass. Keep going!â
âOuch...â Came his shrill voice. He rolled on the ground with his crotch in his hands.
A lot of people gathered around and looked at us.
Leo was in a better mood and looked at the manager and said, âTake him away and donât let him in from now on!â
The manager did not dare to say a word more He hurriedly asked several people to carry the man away.
I stood by and watched him. That was the second time he hit someone when he was in a bad mood.
When he saw me looking at him without moving, he pursed his lips and said calmly, âDid I scare you?â
I shook my head. âTwice already. I suspect you intended violence in front of me. Are you implying something?â
He took off his coat, threw it on the sofa and leaned back. He lay down and said to me, âIt was an accident. I didnât control it well. Iâll pay attention next time.â
I was speechless.
He bought a few drinks and the waiter cleaned up the mess. He looked at me and said, âI can see how you like to meddle.â
Me???
âSince when have I meddled?â I didnât think I was much of a party person.â
He gulped down the wine he had brought, looked up at me and said, âThere, that girl has looked at you several times.â
I froze for a moment and looked back to see the girl who had just been beaten did not leave, still standing straight in the booth side. She seemed to be waiting for the manager to deal with that.
I pressed my lips together and looked at Leo. âThereâs nothing I can do for her.â
âYou thought you were doing her a favor, but in fact you were doing her a disservice!â The sudden appearance of a voice startled me.
Suddenly, a very beautiful woman sat down beside me. She was very flamboyant and very aggressive.
I was stunned, âHi!â
The woman glanced at me, dismissively saying, âFolly Lewis. Whatâs your name?â
Folly Lewis?
Youngest daughter of Old Louis, little sister of Samuel Lewis?
Wow!
What coincidence!
I said, âClara Kennedy!â
She was obviously stunned at my name, but only for a minute, and then she looked at me, squinted, and said, âClara? The one who drove Luna to ruin?â
I pressed my lips together and said nothing. I didnât feel very good about the Louis family, so I didnât want to talk to her.
Leo said, âWeâre out here for drinks and entertainment, Miss Lewis. If you want to make troubles, go round the other table and stop making noise.â
Folly Lewis whined and didnât say much to him, but looked at me and said, âYouâre surrounded by a lot of people who defend you.â
âSo?â Instinctively, I didnât want to say much to her.
âDon't make it so obvious youâre rejecting me. Iâm here to be your friend.â Folly Lewis sat next to me and said, "As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. I hate Luna and her pretentious daughter as much as you do, so that makes us friends.â
I frowned and said nothing.
She looked at the girl who had just been beaten by the middle-aged man and said to me, âSince you have made a move, donât you intend to help her to the end? Sheâs just a little girl. You think this is over after Mr. Kennedy hit him?â
I looked over at Leo and he said impatiently, âBlah, blah, blah!â
Folly Lewis wasnât offended, saying, âTo make it clear, because youâre both Kennedys, even if you hit someone, no one can do anything to you. But sheâs different. Sheâs a helpless little girl who came to a place like this to make some money. But if she's in trouble now, that fat bastardâs gonna come after her again, and heâs gonna make her wish she was dead.â
Seeing my frown, she exhaled, âDonât pretend to so noble. Youâre lucky enough to meet so many great people, and youâre good looking, and you have people to protect you, but, little girl, thereâs a lot of poor people in this world.â
She pointed to the girl who had been beaten. âYou see her? Isnât she pretty? Isnât she in good shape? She may even have the same background as you, but she certainly does not have a husband like Dennis, nor a big brother like Mr. Kennedy, nor a Link Kennedy who takes a shine to her at first sight. So, she is very sad.â
She was...
After the manager had sent the fat man away, he came back and looked at the girl who was standing there and said in a cold voice, âJessica, you have no idea how things work in this business. Mr. Bentick has a lot of money. If you spend one night with him, you could earn several monthsâ
salary.â
âWhy donât you spend the night with him?â I said, getting up and walking over to the manager, âAccording to your logic, why donât you take off your pants here, do a lap dance, and Iâll give you one hundred dollars. How about that?â
âMiss Kennedy, I...â The manager stammered and said, âYou must be joking.â
âI mean it. If one hundred dollars is not enough, how about two?â Although the consumption level of City P was quite high, the average salary of unskilled service personnel was less than ten thousand dollars.
The manager looked embarrassed. He looked at me and said, âMiss Kennedy, I donât think Iâve done anything to offend you. You drove away my guests, and then you asked me to do that. You canât do that. You canât just screw us just because you Kennedys are powerful.â
I couldnât help smiling. âManager, whatâs your last name?â
He froze for a moment and said, âLegend.â
Please Love Me, Mr. George ï¤Chapter 268 One Wrong Step and all Would be Lost 6 I nodded. âHello Mr. Legend, I think if you were in your right mind, as a manager, if there was a bully in the store hitting one of your employees, youâd want to stop it, not just watch it. I can understand that you were too busy to notice that miss Jessica was being beaten up. But when you found out what was going on, didnât it occur to you to ask what happened before you dealt with it?â
After a pause, I continued, âYeah, I heard what you meant, and I guessed you knew why Jessica was beaten up. If Iâm right, how she chooses to make money is her business, right? You insulted her character while failing to protect her life. Mr. Legend, prostitution is not permitted by law. And even if it was, sheâd have to say yes first. She got beaten up for saying no. How does that make it her fault?â
