Chapter 126

Chapter 126“Kai, forget it.” Hilda pulled Kai’s arm back.
When he saw the look on Maria’s face, he finally put his hand down.
If their relationship was strained, Franklin would definitely tell his parents about it, causing them to worry.
When he saw Kai put down his hand, Zayne regained collected himself but didn’t dare say another word.
novelbinAt that moment, a Bentley drove swiftly in their direction and screeched to a halt in front of them, causing
everyone to be stupefied.
Kai too was taken by surprise. He had not expected Tommy to be waiting for him all this while.
As for Hilda, she screamed in delight when she saw it. “It’s this car! This is the same one Kai came in
earlier.”
The next moment, the Bentley’s door opened, and a young man in a suit alighted. Walking up to Kai, he
invited respectfully, “Mr. Chance, at your service.”
Kai grinned slightly, as he hadn’t expected Tommy to send someone else to pick him up instead. Looks
like he is cognizant that I don’t want to be seen with him given his notorious reputation.
“Hilda, let’s get in and find a place for supper,” Kai plainly suggested.
With her eyes glistening in surprise, Hilda nodded in delight. After all, she had never ridden in a Bentley
before.
Once they got in, Kai wound the window on purpose. With a sarcastic smile, he bid them farewell.
“Bye…”
Soon, the Bentley left Zayne and the others in the dust while they were still in shock.“Wow, he really came in a Bentley. That’s unbelievable.”
“Can that Bentley be his friend’s?”
Everyone was amazed.
“Sheesh, what’s the big deal? All he did was rent one.”
Zayne spat on the ground before getting into his car to leave.
With that, everyone else went their separate ways.
Meanwhile, back at Vintage Restaurant, Xavier was fuming when he met Felix in his office.
“Mr. Lawson, I have always heard about how effective the Crimson Dragon Gang is that they have never
failed in their missions. But why is Kai still alive? Moreover, he doesn’t seem to even have a scratch on
him,” Xavier demanded.
Faced with Xavier’s questions, Felix gradually stood up. After walking up to him, he slapped Xavier
forcefully on the face, sending him falling onto the ground.
The moment he landed, the four burly men pressed a dagger against his throat, striking terror into him.
“Da*n it, you almost sent me to my death. And yet, you dare question me? If not for the one million you
paid, I would have fed you to the crocodiles,” Felix thundered.
In response, Xavier was utterly confused. He didn’t understand what was going on and why Felix was so
furious at him.
“Mr. Lawson, p-please don’t hurt me. Since you couldn’t complete the job, shouldn’t you return the
money to me? You can’t…”Before Xavier could finish, one of the burly men gently adjusted his dagger, causing blood to flow from
Xavier’s neck.
“How dare you speak to Mr. Lawson like that? Don’t you know what the rules are? Whatever you have
paid will never be returned,” one of the burly men bellowed.
Utterly terrified and threatened by the cold steel pressing against his throat, Xavier didn’t dare say
another word, let alone want his money back.
“Get lost now! If you dare to talk about what happened today, I will end your life,” Felix threatened.
Even though what they were doing was illegal, they still had a reputation to uphold. If word about what
happened got out, no one would hire them anymore.
