Ruddy nodded, “Thank you, Mr. Davis.”Monica couldn’t stand the anger that was simmering within her. So she angrily left without taking a glance at Gerald.It hurt her so much. It was unbelievable how everything had turned against her so quickly.Ruddy stepped forward, with a smile on his lip. He could tell Austin wasn’t upset with him; if not, he wouldn’t have forgiven himself.He bowed again, then instructed his men to take Gerald to any nearby hospital.Mr. Davis, there is a party this weekend at the mansion. It’s my boss’s Zachary birthday party. I would like to invite you; I will send an invitation card later to you.” He continued, “I will be more than excited if you accept our invitation.”Austin nodded, “Alright, I will be waiting.”The crowd was already stunned by everything they had witnessed so far.They watched Ruddy’s men carried Gerald out of the building. Just as they left, Everyone’s faces lit in relief. Hannah, who had been mute all this while, spoke out. “Why did yo

Austin stood at the entrance with a plain expression, his gaze moved from left to right.Leaving everyone in confusion. They kept wondering who he was and why he commanded such authority. Or was it just someone who had another death wish?Autin turned to Monica, her face pale and her body trembling slightly. He had seen what happened a while ago when it started. He was at the entrance, waiting for Hannah. When he spotted the incident.He knew better than to interfere in such cases than had nothing to do with him. He watched how Gerald kept ranting despite his men being taken down.However, Austin chose not to utter a word. But he couldn’t stand to see Ruddy intimidate her.

“I am calling my father, something needs to be done.” He replied. “He has many connections,”Ruddy stood firm, with an unimpressive expression. “Tell whoever you are calling that you have offended Ruddy Thomson, and I will not let you go except you hand the lady over to me.” Gerald glared at him coldly and moved back a bit when the line connected. “What is it? Has she accepted your proposal?” A deep voice on the other side of the line spoke out.“No, father. Something came up; a young man ruined the moment, and he claimed his name was Ruddy Thomson. He had insisted that I hand over Monica to him or he might not allow me to leave. Even threatened to deal with me, his men took down six of our men.” He continued. “Dad, I want you to send some men over to the restaurant this moment; we need to bring this man down so he knows we are the Benson’s.”There was a short pause over the line. “Who do you say he is?” Mr. Benson asked.“Ruddy Thomson.”A loud groan left Mr. Benson’s mouth. “What

A few minutes later, Six men in dark suits stepped into the restaurant, their expressions cold and demanding. They tilted their heads slightly before Gerald.“Now, let’s see how confident you are.” Gerald bawled, Ruddy was unfazed by the men standing before him. He has seen more than just men; he had faced wars, killed many and survived, those men weren’t threats to him.Another group of men storm into the restaurant. Ten of them poured in like a dark tide. They fanned out fast, each one cold and focused.The restaurant erupted in gasps and screams, seeing the men, both men and women trembled in fear.

A man who doesn’t care about anyone.Does Gerald know what he is up against? Was he ready for the task? Was he blinded by love that he couldn’t seem beyond? Gerald didn’t flinch, he stood confident despi

“How dare you? Who the hell do you think you are? Are you that blind that you can’t see she is with someone?” Gerald turned cold, his voice was filled with contempt.Ruddy glared at Gerard, “I wasn’t talking to you, so back off.” He then turned to Monica. “I am rich, and I can take good care of you if you accept to go on a date with me.”Gasps filled the room, as everyone’s gazes were fixed on the figures. “Can’t you see I am with someone, you shouldn’t have interrupted us,” Monica said, her voice Sharp but firm.“Forgive me but I couldn’t help it. You are a damsel, and I couldn’t sit and watch you without seizing the opportunity before me.”“How dare you talk to my woman like that? What the hell do you think you are doing? And who the hell do you think you are to step in during our conversation.” Gerald’s blood was simmering, and his face was contorted in rage. His body trembled not in fear but fury. Whispering spread across the room, the scene was getting interesting.Gerald poin

She nodded, her eyes softened. “Can I see you later tonight, let's hang out together. I want to thank you for helping me out.”Austin stared at her for a moment, “Alright,”Hannah smiled, “I will send you the location and time,”******Gerald was standing at the door waiting for Monica, he wore a casual t-shirt, looking smart and happy.
