Chapter 930 How Many Girlfriends Do You Have?
If there were one thing Clara despised the most, that would be being lectured. She had heard similar arguments no less than a thousand times since she was a child, and she thought those who reprimanded her were hypocrites. After all, she was only minding her own business and had not caused trouble for them. So, what gave them the right to meddle in her business?
“What now?” Danny puffed his chest out in the face of her undisguised annoyance. Still, he felt inexplicably guilty when he was met with her fierce eyes. He even imagined that she would force herself onto him if he continued pressing her buttons.
In the end, she merely rolled her eyes, turned, and flounced off without another word. Naturally, Noah wanted to chase after her, but Alexander blocked his way.
“Shouldn’t you explain why you are here?” Alexander questioned coldly.
Noah answered without hesitation, “I will spare no expense in bringing a murderer to justice. I will fight you to the end since you two worked together to scheme against us!”
“Do you think you would still be alive if we really wanted to end you?” Alexander’s voice sounded calm and neutral, but the threat was explicit.
“Come on, then. I’m not afraid of you. We should definitely compete over who lives a longer life.” Noah did not care if he was up against Alexander. He was fearless.
However, Danny, who had been feeling guilty because of Raffle’s death, stepped forward, pulled Alexander away, and took the initiative to mediate the situation. “Look, let me say this one last time. We have nothing to do with your father’s death. We aren’t saints. Stop testing our patience. If you continue pulling the same trick, you won’t be so lucky next time.”
“I only believe that good deeds come back to help you, and bad deeds come back to haunt you. God will never let any wicked person go!” Noah satirized.
“God bless your stupidity.” Finally, Alexander had had enough of Noah’s nonsense, so he shoved Danny aside and made himself comfortable on the couch.
“Just you wait!” Noah threw them a vicious look and stormed off.
Danny let out a helpless sigh as he closed the door.
“This person keeps sticking his nose in all the wrong places. We should’ve just given him a map to find Wendy to save ourselves from this headache,” Alexander groused. He hated uncertainties because they tended to impact his plans in ways that he could not imagine. Moreover, it. It had been a difficult journey for him to reunite with Elise. So, he preferred stability; the less uncertainty, the safer his family was.
“Well, I highly doubt he will come out alive if he finds Wendy now. He neither has the brains nor the skills to navigate through those muddled waters. So, let’s just consider this as an act of charity. He will let this matter go once he’s finally got it out of his system.” Danny did not want to have blood on his hands.
“On your head be it, then,” Alexander grumbled expressionlessly.
“Fine.” Danny did not say anything further, as it was reasonable for him to clean up his own mess.
“Wait, where are you going?” Alexander asked when he saw Danny walking toward the door. Danny rolled his eyes when he heard that idiotic question. “Of course, I’m going to book a new room. Do you want to sleep on that bed?”
Alexander was at a loss for words. He had somewhat forgotten what had happened earlier. The second he returned to his senses, he fled from the room like a bat out of hell without bothering to wait for Danny. After all, this hotel was very popular, and he wanted to be the one sleeping on a comfortable bed if only one room was left.
On the other hand, as soon as Noah saw Clara near the hotel entrance, he quickened his pace to block Clara’s way. “Wait a minute!”
She got impatient with him. “What do you want? Are you thinking of making me responsible for what I did to you?”
“No, not at all.” Noah looked immature and naive compared to her calm demeanor. “Instead, I want to be your boyfriend and take responsibility for my actions.”
She instantly became amused and asked, “How many girlfriends do you have?”
