Chapter 69

It was past eleven o’clock, but Emmanuel was not

home yet.

Mackenzie could no longer remain calm and

unaffected.

“That man is truly hateful! Didn’t I tell him that he’s to

be home by eleven o’clock?”

Gritting her teeth, she decided to seek him out and see

what exactly he was doing that he had not turned on

his phone after such a long time.

Emmanuel had no idea that Mackenzie would seek him

out. He was still hugging Xylie with an arm.

“T–Thank you!” Xylie thanked Emmanuel after he wiped

the floor with the ruffians, her gaze trained on his arm

around her.

In a flash, Emmanuel dropped his hold on her and

urged, “It’s difficult to remain untouched when you’re

working in a bar. Be careful next time. Others may not

respect your wishes when you turn their advances

down.”

“All right…”

Xylie nodded, her eyes sparkling as she stared at the

man.

Never had she imagined that such a trope of a knight

in shining armor saving the damsel in distress would

happen to her.

Not only was the man before her tall and handsome,

but he also radiated maturity. Coincidentally, he

happened to be her cup of tea.

“What is this? What happened here?”

At that precise moment, Samuel arrived with a group

of men.

Seeing that, all the patrons in the bar started taking off.

Even the manager was scared witless.

Oh God, what should I do if they fight in the bar when

there are so many of them?

However, Samuel stopped short when he had drawn

close to the scene.

What on earth is happening here? The man on the

ground is my sworn brother, Rat. Meanwhile, the

person who defeated them turned out to be

Emmanuel! He’s the ruthless man who wiped the floor

with us alone at The Paradise that night!

“You’re here just in time, Mr. Webber! I’m never going to

rest until I’ve ripped this brat to shreds today!”

Fury blazed in Rat’s eyes, and he struggled to his feet in

excitement upon seeing that his backup was here.
