Chapter 31The man's fist tightened, his eyes red. “You have got some nerve, you this little brag!” He shouted, rage in his voice. “I’ll show you what makes me a man!” He charged forward, but before he could even get closer, the lady flew up, lifting her leg forward. It landed straight into the man's stomach and he crashed to the ground, groaning. The lady walked forward, her expression calm, but her step carried a quiet menace. Stepping over, she lifted her leg and smashed the man's head, pressing it down against the harsh ground.“You still want to show what makes you a man?” The lady asked mockingly, “Come on, let's go again.”The man who barely breathed, lifted his hand helplessly, begging. “Please, don't kill me. I was wrong! I never knew you were this powerful! Please, spare my life, I'm just a student. My parents will die if they find out I'm gone! Please, don't harm me.”“You should have thought of that before making a silly move,” she replied.Without another word, the lady

Chapter 33Duke looked at the security guard in surprise. What does he think he is doing? Charlie's the one treating me, and he's humiliating him while respecting me? He muttered, shaking his head in displeasure.He opened his mouth to respond, but Charlie, aware of what he wanted to say, cut him off. “What do you mean I should step aside? Is that how you operate here?” He said, frowning. "Disrespecting your customers?" The security guard chuckled, amused by Charlie's words. “Disrespecting our customers?" He repeated, shaking his head. “Kindly take a look at yourself and be frank, do you think you truly belong here?" He sighed. "I've had people like you come here; order food, eat, and end up creating a scene when they couldn't pay the bills. But I'm not going to let that happen today. So, I want you to leave before the count of five….”He slightly winked. " One…..Two….Three…." Charlie stood there unfazed, his arms crossed, waiting for what the security guard was going to do next.H

Chapter 35Pete paused, a glimmer of irritation in his eyes as he looked at Charlie. He was a tattered young guy.June, at that moment, didn't care about who had stepped up to help her. She hurriedly hid behind Charlie's back. “He's harassing me, please, save me!" She said, her voice cracking with embarrassment.Charlie turned to her, “Don't worry, I'm here. He isn't going to take you," he replied, reassuring her. Then he turned to face Pete, his expression unreadable. “I can't let you continue to harass her," He uttered firmly, "leave before I make you pay.”Eyes widened, mouths opened as Charlie challenged.Duke glanced at him, shocked. “What do you think you're doing, Charlie?" He whispered, shaking his head in disbelief. “Do you know who he is? He's the only son of one of the prominent men in Maple town. His father's a bastard millionaire. This is his son, you can't challenge him! Let's leave!”"Leave?” Charlie asked Duke, disappointment shimmered in his eyes. "You mean we should

Chapter 37 Caught completely off guard, Charlie hesitated, unable to reciprocate, his hand frozen midair. Instead, he felt his breath hitch as her breasts pressed against his chest. June was no doubt a beautiful, young lady. She has a thick body and undeniable allure. No wonder, Pete couldn't resist her. After a short hug, June gently pulled back, her eyes filled with gratitude. “Thank you so much for saving me from that spoiled brat. He's got me frustrated…. following me around.” Charlie exhaled deeply, his tensed body after June hugged him, chilling slightly. After a moment, he regained his composure, “Are you okay now?" He asked, his voice unsteady. June nodded, her heart dropping in relief. She was completely at ease now that Pete was gone for good. "Yeah, sure. I'm okay. Thank you for standing up for me when no one did.” She glanced at Charlie from his head down to his toes, then back to his face. Charlie calmly observed her expression, but there was no sign of irrit

Chapter 39“And I'll do that over and over again!" Pete nodded, his voice sheer with rage, as if he could just strangle his father to death. “You're the worst person I've ever seen! You deceived me! You made me believe everything was ours! But it turns out we're surviving on grace!” His teeth gritted. “You messed up everything and you're trying to commit suicide?” He chuckled bitterly, his chest tightened. "To let Mum and me suffer for your damn fucking mistake? You're evil!” “How dare you hit your father and talk to him like that?" Slap!Slap!Helen, his mother's palm connected with Pete's cheek, snapping his head to the side, then to another.Pete just rubbed his cheek, smoothening it as if nothing had happened. He straightened himself, glaring at his mother, his eyes red with anger, but he uttered not a word.“Everyone back to your duty post,” the butler turned and swiftly instructed the staff workers, as the issue seemed to escalate. They nodded, bowing their heads before walki
