Chapter 367
Chapter 367
Thomas was a sentimental man. As such, he let the couple off the hook back at Miles Auction House, but he didn’t think they would actually come looking for trouble shamelessly. They’re asking for it!
The restaurant manager as well as the servers all stared at Thomas in shock since he was far too brutal. They hadn’t even seen when he had moved before Garrett and his girlfriend were lying on the floor. However, none of them dared to say anything for fear that they would be next.
Thomas pushed the stunned manager away and headed straight to Melissa’s side. He could not be bothered with Garrett since it was obvious the latter was merely a useless spoiled rich heir. Garrett had tried to challenge him only because Melissa had encouraged it.
“Melissa Quinten, I haven’t given you attention during your class gathering and even let you off easy when you disparaged me at Miles Auction House. However, you were the one who came looking for trouble today, so you shouldn’t blame anyone for it!”
Crack! Crack!
The crisp sound of bones breaking rang out as soon as he finished speaking. He would not be merciful to her anymore. As such, he used his legs to break her limbs. He knew Melissa wouldn’t learn her lesson otherwise.
Droycore had an age-old saying that men did not hurt women. However, Thomas had differing thoughts about that. To him, it depended on how far the woman had gone. If she was so eager to learn her lesson, why should he let her off easy just because she was a woman? Was that a joke?
There were only two men who were obligated to tolerate a woman on account of her gender—her other half and her mother’s. Thomas was none of those, so he naturally had to teach Melissa a lesson. A mistake was forgivable, but a deliberate act shouldn’t be tolerated. He had kept enduring it but gotten challenged in exchange, so there was no need to tolerate her now.
Meanwhile, Melissa was just an ordinary woman. As such, she couldn’t take the treatment, her eyes rolling backward before she fainted from the pain.
“And you! Didn’t you like standing up for your girlfriend? In that case, you’ll have to pay the same price as her!”
Crack! Crack!
Thomas did not hesitate and broke Garrett’s limbs as well.
Make me unable to leave of my own accord? Who do you think you are?
“Ow!” Garrett screamed pitifully before he, too, fainted.
The restaurant manager and the servers were dead silent as they shivered from fear. Thomas was far too violent; how could small fish like them cross someone who would incapacitate someone just because of a verbal disagreement?
They lowered their heads, faces pale. There was no sign of the arrogance they had displayed when they tried to chase Thomas and Olivia out. Instead, they looked as obedient as anything. It would be different with Garrett and Melissa since Garrett was still the son of a wealthy family, so beating him up might lead to more complex issues.
“Olivia, let’s go.” Thomas waved at Olivia when he was done, and she smiled gently before walking toward him and taking his arm. She didn’t think he had been cruel; the lot of them had been the ones looking for trouble, plus Melissa had dared spatter wine on Olivia’s beloved. Hence, Olivia believed that Thomas was already being merciful by not beating the duo to death.
“Don’t think you’re great just because you work here at this restaurant. Just you wait!” Olivia didn’t seem appeased at all and pulled out several hundred bills, throwing them at the manager’s face before
turning away and following Thomas out. She wouldn’t let this go even if Thomas wasn’t about to take further action.
The restaurant manager recovered only when they were already gone. “Why are you all standing there? Call an ambulance!” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Meanwhile, Olivia sat in the passenger seat of the Maserati and turned to glance at the name of the restaurant. “Romantic Restaurant?”
You’re acting like this, eh? I’ll buy you out tomorrow and fire all of you. You have spoiled my first date with my boyfriend and I will not tolerate it!
Olivia and Thomas hadn’t eaten much but didn’t have much appetite after the fiasco, so they headed back to Northpine Villa.
Thomas returned to his bedroom, sitting cross-legged on his bed. He planned to continue practicing the second-level technique in the nameless book because his current strength was still at the highest level of Profound Tier One while the six old monsters were at the highest level of Profound Tier Three. That meant that their Crimson Moon was definitely more powerful than them. He only had one year left and when the moment came, Crimson Moon’s opportunity for revenge would come.
Thomas didn’t sleep at all that night but remained alert and felt better than when he had gotten a good night’s sleep. It was also a benefit of internal martial arts, which allowed him to be refreshed and relaxed.
He stopped practicing at 7.30AM and went to the kitchen to prepare a luxurious breakfast, then headed to Keyshire Property after having it with Olivia.
“Hello!” Olivia hadn’t forgotten the events of the night before. How dare they spoil my date? She wouldn’t let it go, so she called the person in charge of the food industry in Keyshire Property after
arriving at her office.
“What is it, Miss Pearson?” the person in charge asked respectfully.
“I’ll give you the entire morning to buy Romantic Restaurant!” Olivia ordered coldly.
“Yes, Miss Pearson!”
Thomas shook his head from where he had been sitting on the couch without saying anything else. He could see that she was still angry since he had noticed her being downcast at breakfast. She could just do whatever she wanted as long as she was pacified.
Ring!
Thomas’ phone rang and he picked it up while walking to the corridor.
“Hello.”
It was Rochka, who had already made an appointment with Thomas to attend the antique painting forum and wanted to arrange the time with him.
“Mr. Clifford, we’ll meet at 8.00PM at Miles Auction House before going to the forum.”
“Okay.”
They then made some small talk before hanging up.
The instant Thomas entered the office, Olivia told him, “Thomas, I bought the restaurant we went to yesterday. It’s now a business under Keyshire Properties. The servers and that potbellied manager have all been fired!”
“What?” He was somewhat shocked since the order had been relayed just before he had taken the call. He had only chatted briefly with Rochka but everything had now been resolved, which hadn’t taken even half an hour! That was extremely efficient!
She went on, “No one can kick out my man like that. How dare they disparage you too?! Hmph! Insolent b*stards!”
