Marry My Ex's Sworn Enemy

Chapter 105: I Was Just Her Replacement.

Chaos erupted outside the restaurant. Jay was holding back the beaten student's friends from attacking Henry, Simon trying to pull Henry away, to stop him from hitting the kid. Henry had. the student pinned down, raining blows on him, the student's cries of pain echoing. Simon finally managed to pull him off, but Henry grabbed a chair, ready to swing it at the

student.

"Henry!" Sophia shouted, "Put it down!"

Henry heard her voice. He didn't look at her, but the chair stopped mid-swing. The chaotic scene fell silent.

Sophia hurried forward, snatched the chair from Henry, pushed him back, then checked on the student. He looked to be a college student.

His face was bruised and swollen; he was silent, afraid to speak.

Liu, please take him to the hospital, Sophia said to Simon.

Simon nodded, signaling Jay.

Jay still kept the angry students at bay. "Don't make a fuss. If you want to press charges, remember, you were the ones who started insulting people. If you keep pushing this, we'll take this to your school. We're not afraid of punishment, are you?"

The students' bravado deflated. Jay patted a boy at the front. Let's get him to the hospital. We'll cover the treatment and compensation. And from now on, you guys get a 50% discount at the

restaurant."

Jay used a mix of threats and appeasement. They were just students, young and inexperienced, and having seen Henry's violence, they backed down.

Jay drove them to the hospital in his van.

Sophia sighed. Henry was leaning against the doorframe, smoking, still seething with rage.

ose students were talking about a med school girl, saying she was fake, a slut, stuff like that. Henry was drinking at a nearby table. He warned them once to shut up. The beaten guy. said, 'Why the big deal? Your wife's a doctor, right?' and jokingly asked if your wife was a wild one at night. Given Henry's temper, he couldn't help himself, especially since they insulted "you"," Mrs. Sterling whispered, explaining the situation.

Sophia patted Mrs. Sterling's shoulder. "I understand."

She walked to Henry, took the cigarette from his mouth, and said sternly, "Let's go home." Henry scowled. I'm not going home."
