Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
The man was sent flying.
Even the chain in his hand was sent flying.
Seeing how Flossie would soon tumble off the table along with the chain, Xavier quickly reached out and caught her firmly.
Her body was light as a feather.
It was lighter than he remembered! Xavier’s heart raced.He felt like a young kid who was touching a girl for the first time.He held onto Flossie stiffly while asking if she was alright in a nervous tone.
“Flossie, are you alright? I rescued you again!”
Halston stood at the outermost section of the crowd while he watched the entire saga without any emotion on his face.It was almost as if he was watching a movie and had nothing to do with it.
Meanwhile, the man on the ground, humiliated, became enraged.He called out to the hundreds of bodyguards, “Open fire! I want them torn to shreds!”
“Watch out!”
Halston shouted from the edge of the crowd.
After all, this was someone else’s turf.
Xavier’s behavior was too conspicuous, and he was putting himself in a passively dangerous situation.
“You actually have an accomplice!”
The man discovered Halston and gave instructions to another group of security guards.
“Capture him and shoot him right away!”
“How dare you?”
Xavier, who was relatively calm in the beginning, instantly lost his cool.He gently put Flossie down before glaring coldly at the man.
“You can be rude to me, but you’re asking for trouble if you talk to Halston like that!”
The man was dumbfounded by Xavier’s reaction.He’d met fearless people before, but none audacious to such an extent.
Xavier was practically dicing with death.
How was Xavier brave enough to provoke him like this? Without saying a word, Xavier delivered a kick to the man’s stomach.
“Get on your knees and apologize to Halston!” Halston felt a little speechless.
‘You can get on your knees, but that won’t be necessary”
Halston wanted to say this out loud, but he didn’t.He was only an observer, but Xavier’s action literally dragged him into the eye of the storm.It seemed he was going to have to take a few bullets no matter what.He had Xavier to thank for this.
By now, the security guards were all aiming their guns at Xavier and Halston.However, they were overwhelmed by the two’s strong presence.
Nobody dared to open fire, and none wanted to become the scapegoat either.
“Let the two of them go and ask your manager to come here.I’ll take full responsibility.”
Halston kept his hands in his pockets and looked down at the man who was on the ground.
“Halston, you should leave with Flossie.I’m better at dealing with situations like this,” Xavier said.
Nearly ninety percent of the entertainment industry in Beach City was monopolized by the Stuart family, and most of the industry happened to involve grey areas.
Dealing with situations like this was naturally a piece of cake for Xavier.
“Do you all think I’m dead?”
Xavier stepped harder on the man’s head.His face was red from rage.
“Go on, fire, you idiots! Do you think this is funny?”
The security guards could no longer stay still and got ready to make their move.
Just as all hell was about to break loose, they heard someone shouting.
“Hold your fire! Hold your fire!”
The man was about to start yelling again, but his face turned pale when he saw who the person shouting was.
At the same time, the security guards with guns in their hands lowered their heads in fear.
“H-Hank!”
It seemed that this was their manager.
Hank seemed like a cultured man in his forties.He ran past the crowd before directly approaching Xavier and Halston.
“Mr.Stuart, I’m terribly sorry.I had no idea you were visiting with your friend today.It’s all our fault.Please forgive my subordinates for their ignorance…”
After saying this, Hank kicked the man several times and pointed at his head.
“You’re a worthless piece of crap.How dare you offend Mr.Stuart? Did you know this casino wouldn’t have been built if his father hadn’t approved it back then? You’re biting the hand that feeds you.I’ll have you killed!”
Xavier raised his brows when he saw that the man was about to be shot in his head.
“That’s enough.Halston doesn’t like seeing blood.Let’s stop here for today.Just be mindful in the future.”
“Yes!”
Hank nodded repeatedly.
The man on the ground nearly peed his pants.
“Thank you for sparing my life…Thank you for sparing my life,” he muttered continuously.
It wasn’t their fault for being so humble.
The Stuart family was leagues above them.
They might not care about the law when it came to grey areas like these, but they wouldn’t dare go against the Stuart family unless they no longer wanted to dabble in this field.
In actual fact, Xavier was only so arrogant because he had told his subordinate to inform Hank about the situation before he went there.
“This casino is simply too gory.I can’t stay here for another minute!”
Xavier covered his nose and exclaimed in disgust.
“It can’t be helped, Mr.Stuart.This is the only way the casino can attract people.It’s messy, but it’s also where all things are possible.Here, you can win anything under the sun, things that you’ll never be able to buy anywhere else!”
