Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 278

Gilbert was almost six feet tall, and his muscles were well-defined. Paired with his dashing eyes, he was truly an attractive man, and he formed a stark contrast to the short men around him.

But now, more importantly, a group of people stood next to him, and they looked like they were looking for trouble.

Elspeth didn’t approach them. She stood at the back of the crowd, silently watching the drama unfold. She wanted to know how Gilbert would deal with those people.

“How many times did I f*cking tell you? Apologize! What are you, deaf?”

Gilbert glanced at him coldly. “How are you worthy of my apology?”

“Hah, am I not worthy? Don’t you know who I am? I’m the owner of this territory. Anyone who offends me will be punished, no exceptions!”

The man was wearing a large gold chain, and his clothes were luxurious and gaudy. He had a dark patch on the right side of his eye, tarnishing his already unremarkable face.

“Wow, that’s amazing.”

Gilbert flicked his wrist. “Come at me, then. Are you guys fighting solo, or is everyone going to attack at the same time?”

“Hmph! You’ll regret this!”

The man spat as he glared viciously at Gilbert. Then, he commanded the people around him in a harsh voice, “Get him! Beat this man to death, or else!”

Fearing the consequences, the lackeys rushed forward with their bare hands.

In just two seconds, Gilbert broke one of the men’s arms with great ease. When the other two heard the crisp cracking noise, they paused in their tracks.

Gilbert pulled out a tissue from his pocket and wiped his hands, then tossed the tissue in disgust onto the man, who now had a dislocated arm.

“Is that all?”

He was fast!

The people around them shared this exact sentiment.

They were watching the fight up front, so they could see better. The people behind them couldn’t even catch what was going on and only heard a wail that reached the skies.

“Who… Who exactly are you?”
