After Being Cheating novel Chapter 144

The man was the leader of a group of gangsters, and he had never been humiliated like this in his life. He closed his mouth and didn't utter another single word.

When Janet came up to him and dragged him by his collar, two black Maybach cars stopped right behind the crowd of curious onlookers. "Please get out of the way, " said one of the bodyguards.

Some other bodyguards got out of the cars and stood in two rows, which attracted a lot of people's attention.

The backseat door was then opened, and a man dressed in a black British-style coat, and wearing a pair of expensive hand-made Italian leather shoes, got out of the car.

He gracefully walked towards the group of people.

As soon as Daniel received the phone call from one of the maids, he immediately rushed there. When he got out of the car, he saw that Janet was dragging a man's shirt collar, while wearing an angry expression on her red, flushed face.

Then he caught sight of Brian, who was standing beside her, and he slightly frowned his eyebrows.

"What's going on here?" Daniel pulled Janet into his arms, and asked the bodyguard with a cold, stern voice.

The bodyguard gave him a brief explanation about what had happened. Daniel looked at the national flag, and ordered the bodyguards behind him, "Punch them until they're willing to apologize."

There were about seven or eight bodyguards there, and Daniel was emanating a cold and powerful aura, which really frightened the gangsters. They were very scared of him, and apologized immediately.

Daniel didn't show any care to their apologies. He threw a glance at the maids and indicated them to first take John back to the car.

When hysterical screaming sounds were heard coming from the gangsters, some of the Huaxia people in the crowd began cheering for them.

Daniel caressed on the woman's frowned eyebrows with his big palm, and he changed his cold voice to a tender one, saying, "Have you been injured?"

"No, I'm quite well, thanks to Brian; he's the one that saved me!" said Janet. She pointed at Brian, who was standing near, at a short distance from them. Brian was focusing on what was happening on Janet's side, when he suddenly met eyes with Daniel.

They nodded to each other, without uttering a single word.

Then there was the cracking sounds of bones and screaming coming again. After that, Daniel finally ordered the bodyguards to stop punching them.

The men, who had been punched pretty hard, were now all wearing miserable looks on their faces, and before Daniel could speak another word, they immediately apologized to the national flag. They also apologized to the shop's owner as well. Then they heard the wailing sounds of the police cars' sirens coming closer and closer. Daniel held Janet's hand and went with her towards his car.

But Janet got free of Daniel's hand and ran up to Brian. "Brian, thank you very much! Why are you here?" asked Janet.

"I'm on mission here. I've been here for half a month already, " replied Brian. He tried to control his distressed feelings, and looked her in the eyes.

Daniel got in the car first, and he would only give one minute's time to Janet. When the time was up, he shouted, "Janet!"

The man's voice came sounding out of the car.

Janet had to hastily say good-bye to Brian. "Brian, I'm leaving now, but let's meet again when you're free!" said Janet.

Brian waved to her and saw her get in the car. He then slowly went away too.

One bodyguard was left at the spot to deal with what happened next, and all the other people went away.

And also all the onlookers dropped away, being afraid of getting involved in any trouble.

That group of men were all taken away by the police, and were accused of violating a national flag.

As soon as they returned to the mansion, Janet was taken to the second floor by Daniel. Looking at his big palm, which was gripping tight on her wrist, Janet asked, "Daniel, what's wrong with you?"

"When did Brian come to America?" asked Daniel angrily. He then slammed shut the bedroom's door.

Janet was startled by the door's loud sound. She remembered Brian's words, and honestly replied to Daniel, "Half a month ago."

The man turned around and stared at her. "Did you know that he had already come to America?" asked Daniel.

Janet felt speechless, and said, "No, I didn't know. And I haven't contacted him either."

"Really?" Obviously, the man didn't believe her.
