Chapter 59 Smashing Heads with Vengeance +8 Pearls The entertainment tabloids from Oliviaâs previous life had splashed her face across their pages, branding her as a goldâdigging mistress. The source? A scandalous photo of her entering a hotel with Jack, a man. already engaged to someone else. The fallout was disastrous, pushing her out of the entertainment industry and into the unforgiving spotlight of public scorn.
That incident was one of the key reasons she later took up martial artsâit was either fight back or fall apart.
Now, in this life, fate had handed Olivia an opportunity to settle scores much sooner than expected. Staring at Jack, her fingers curled into a fist, the itch for justice burning in her veins.
Lucas led the way into one of Lock Barâs private rooms where Jack sat surrounded by his usual entourage of lackeys and two sweetâfaced women draped over his shoulders.
When Jack saw Lucas, his expression brightened, ready to greet him. But the moment his eyes landed on the figure behind Lucas, his grin froze.
Olivia.
Recognition flickered in Jackâs eyesâhe had handed her photo to the thugs, after all. His expression quickly turned sour.
âMr. Thompson, care to explain this?â Jackâs tone was sharp, his gaze locked on Olivia as he straightened in his seat.
That single reaction was all Lucas needed to confirm Jackâs guilt.
âJack,â Lucas said, his usual easygoing demeanor replaced by a cool, authoritative air. âThis is my friend. Why the hell are you sending people to mess with her?â
Jack arched a brow, his voice dripping with faux innocence. âMess with her? Of course not. I only sent them to... ensure she never uses those hands of hers again. Lucas, Iâm giving you a courtesy here by explaining myself. This Olivia offended Lil, and if she thinks sheâll get away with it, sheâs sorely mistaken.â
The mention of Lil clicked for Lucas immediately. Jack had been chasing Lily, a fellow student at St. Rona Academy, for years with no success. Despite being repeatedly rejected, he styled himself as her personal avenger.
âTry it,â a cold voice interrupted.
Benjaminâstepped forward, his towering frame exuding an icy menace. His dark eyes locked onto Jack, daring him to continue.
Jack froze for a moment. Benjamin?
âMr. Benjamin, youâre stepping in for this girl too?â Jackâs voice cracked slightly, the bravado in his tone faltering.
Benjaminâs family name carried far more weight than Jackâs. If Lucas was a thorn in his side, Benjamin was a wrecking ball.
âExactly.â Benjamin glanced at Olivia briefly, his voice steady and calm.
1/3 11:12 Fri, Jan 3 G B.
Chapter 59 Smashing Heads with Vengeance +8 Pearls Jackâs mind scrambled. Olivia was no longer just some random girlâshe had Lucas and Benjamin on her side. Alone, he could handle Lucas. But Benjamin too? That was a losing game.
âFine,â Jack relented through gritted teeth. âSince youâre asking, Mr. Benjamin, Iâll let this go. Consider it done.â
Benjaminâs expression didnât waver. âApologize.â
Jack blinked, incredulous. âApologize? To her?â He scoffed, gesturing dismissively. âDonât push it, Benjamin. Iâm already stepping back here. You expect me to apologize to this nobody? She doesnât even deserve-â
Before he could finish, Oliviaâstepped forward, her cal presence silencing both Lucas and Benjamin.
âSince youâve found him for me,â she said with a faint smile, âIâll handle it from here.â
Lucas and Benjamin exchanged wary glances. Something about Oliviaâs tone set off alarm bells in their minds.
Jack, oblivious, smirked, mistaking Oliviaâs approach for submission.
âYouâre Olivia, right? Iâll give you credit for having the guts to bring these two in. Clearly, youâre good at keeping them entertained.
Tell you what, pour me a drink, and Iâll consider this incident behind us.â
Oliviaâs gaze shifted to the table where a collection of untouched beer bottles rested. Her lips curved upward.
âSure,â she said sweetly. âLet me get you a drink.â
Without hesitation, she grabbed a bottle and swung it hard.
The heavy glass shattered against Jackâs skull, shards flying in every direction as beer mixed with blood trickled down his face.
The room fell silent.
The two women screamed, leaping off the couch.
Lucas froze in disbelief. âAre you insane?! This is his barâ
Benjamin remained silent, but his sharp eyes flicked between Jack and Olivia, ready to step in if needed.
Jack stumbled, clutching his head as he howled in pain. âYou... crazy... bââ
Before he could finish, Olivia grabbed another bottle.
âYouâre welcome to another,â she said, her tone as sweet as before.
Jackâs entourage snapped out of their daze, enraged and ready to attack.
âGet her!â Jack roared, blood dripping down his face. âIâll kill her!â
Benjamin was already moving, cutting off two of Jackâs lackeys with swift, brutal punches.
Lucas eager to prove his worth grabbed a bottle himself smashing it over another thugâs head. âNot 2/3 11:12 Fri, Jan 3 Chapter 59 Smashing Heads with Vengeance today, fellas!â
Olivia, meanwhile, delivered a sharp kick to the nearest attacker, sending him flying into the wall.
The room descended into chaos, but Oliviaâs grin only widened.
Tonight, she wasnât just settling a score. She was delivering a reckoning.
