Emery didnât react to it. âThank you. If you ever visit The Jade in the future, do tell them that you know
me. You will get a discount.â Then she nodded with grace and left with her purse in her hand.
âHow much is the discount?â Emeryâs words had caught Lucasâ attention, and he started to speak in his
poor Chanaean. âAre you Stovallâs friend, pretty lady?â
Emery stopped in her track. She glared at him and responded with a hint of irritation in her tone, âNo,
Iâm her elder.â
Lucas raised his brows and teased, âBut you donât look so old.â
âTechnically, Iâm Lettyâs aunt. Do you know what an aunt means? Did anyone ever tell you that you
have to respect an elder?â
âOh, really?â Lucas replied without batting an eye. Instead, he took a step forward and stared at Emery
in a bold and suggestive manner. âIâd like to learn that from you somedayâ¦â
âGet away from her!â
All of a sudden, a figure appeared and pushed him away with great force.
Lucas, who was unaware of that man, didnât manage to avoid it in time. The impact made him fall and
hit the dining table next to him. A series of loud clanging followed as the tables and chairs knocked into
each other. Fortunately, Lucasâ underlings managed to break his fall before his Herculean body could
cause any further major damage.
I followed the gaze of his angry underlings and had a glimpse of the man who had pushed Lucas.
To my surprise, that man was Alexander.
However, what caught my attention first was his outfit. He was wearing a white tuxedo and a red bow
tie, and it seemed that he had put on makeup as his lips were red, and his face was glowing. He looked
just like a prince from a fairytale.
Most importantly, I also noticed the flower on his chest pocket that signified him as the groom.
What is this? Is he getting married now?
âShit! Who the hell are you? How dare you push me?â Lucasâ chest was heaving with anger, and his
eyes were wide with wrath.
The underlings next to him were eager to leap at Alexander too. They were shouting and cursing about
seeking revenge for their boss, and none of them cared that their actions were inappropriate in such a
venue.
Upon seeing such commotion, the waiter immediately ran away to notify the restaurant manager.
Alexander had no clue about Lucasâ identity. He said arrogantly, âHey, you! You are in Chanaea now, so
watch your manner. Iâm warning you to stay away from Chanaean women. If not, you will have to pay
for your action.â
âExcuse me? Are you kidding me?â Lucas laughed as if he had heard a great joke. He pointed at
himself and said, âYou pushed me, and yet you asked me to get lost? Thatâs so funny. Hahahaââ
Lucas stopped laughing abruptly. The next moment, he directed his punch at Alexander.
Alexander was not a man who would kindly endure a beating. His face darkened, and he was ready to
fight back.
âNo! No! No!â
Right then, the restaurant manager and a few security guards had arrived at the scene. They pulled the
two men apart in an attempt to prevent any further conflict.
âPlease calm down, Sir,â the manager first comforted Lucas, the static sound of the walkie-talkie in his
hand coming out of the speaker. âSir, if you continue to cause trouble, weâll have to remove you from
this premise.â
The fact that the manager insisted on chasing Lucas out without investigating the cause of the
commotion showed that he was blatantly taking Alexanderâs side.
Alexander shook off the guardsâ grip, dusted his clothes, and stuck his hands into his pants pockets. He
then turned to face Lucas with an arrogant and taunting expression.
As he saw Alexanderâs expression, Lucas could no longer contain his wrath. He grabbed the
managerâs collar and lifted the man into the air. He then, in Ustranasion, yelled at the manager, âHe hit
me, but youâre chasing me out? Are you kidding me?â
Lucas was so livid that the flesh on his face trembled violently when he spoke.
âPlease calm down, Sir. If you continue to act this way⦠we will have to call the police.â The managerâs
voice quavered, but his order was clear. After all, the man had dealt with all sorts of situations.
