Chapter 369
Let Him Take Care of Them for the Time Being,Coolest Girl in Town
If looks could kill, Amelia would be nothing but ashes at this point. “Who would have thought that even up to this day, you guys could still catch wind of Mr. York so fast?” Amelia muttered sarcastically. Ingratiating with the powerful and looking down at the weak was a norm among the upper-class society. Now that the Griffith Family was at a disadvantage, most people would stand by the sidelines and go so far as to avoid mentioning them. Truth was, Elise had acquired the news about Nathan’s arrival via a special channel, but Alexander didn’t mind the process.
All he knew was that this would be a battle that the two of them would be facing together as one. He squeezed Elise on her shoulder and took the initiative to walk past them from the side, having no intention to be held up by Johan and Amelia. “Mr. Hayden!” Amelia suddenly called out to the lobby manager. “These two people are going to barge in and disturb your valuable customers without making an appointment. Are you going to just stand and watch?” What she said put Mr. Hayden on the spot. Both parties were people he couldn’t afford to offend. He initially had planned to turn a blind eye on them and the matter would have passed, but now that Amelia had dragged him into it, he wouldn’t be able to be out of the picture without making a choice between them.
However, one wouldn’t require much contemplation when it came to making a choice between the Olson Family Clan, who was strong in the share market and various aspects, and the Griffith Family, who was suffering a huge loss and was neglected by many at the moment. After some consideration, Mr. Hayden went up to Alexander and Elise, thereafter blocking their way. “I’m sorry, Mr. Griffith. You know how things work here. The customer staying in the penthouse dislikes any visits.” “What if I insist on going up?” Alexander’s expression sank and a murderous intent flashed across his eyes. “Mr. Griffith, please don’t put us on the spot.” Mr. Hayden bowed his head before he raised his hand to gesture to the other hotel staff to come over to block the hallway.
It was apparent that Alexander wouldn’t be able to go in unless he did it by force. “It seems like you two refuse to accept the reality that the Griffith Family is now nothing!” Amelia mocked, her tone gloating. A wicked smile played at the corner of Johan’s lips as he walked up to Elise. Then, he made a few turns around her while his malicious gaze roamed all over her body as he offered, “Miss Sinclair, if you are willing to say a few nice things to me, I’m more than happy to give you a hand and allow you to take a look at the penthouse. What do you say?” “Save your breath.”
A hint of impatience appeared in Elise’s eyes as she eyed him with narrow eyes. “If you look at me with that perverted gaze for another second longer, I swear I will destroy them!” Being well-aware of how fierce Elise was in character, Johan shrank backward as his heart leapt into his mouth. Although the woman seemed tender and weak, she exuded an intimidating presence when she decided to go all out. However, men were like cats, a creature that had the courage to do absolutely anything as long as it wasn’t life-threatening. This was why when Johan remembered that the Olson Family Clan was at an advantage at the moment, the urge to stir something up overtook him again. He let out a cold chuckle and continued to lock his pervy gaze on Elise’s long legs that were exposed under her skirt.
A sharp gleam flashed across her eyes, her hand making a slight move by her side and a silver needle slid to her fingers. Nonetheless, before she could make a move, Alexander flung his fist violently at Johan, and the latter collapsed on the floor. He threw punches after punches like a madman, and Johan was unable to fight back at all. In the end, Alexander lifted a foot and stomped on Johan’s chest. A shock look spread across Elise’s face but she soon regained her calmness and quietly kept away the silver needle between her fingers. “Alexander Griffith, how dare you?
Aren’t you afraid that I’ll make sure that the entire Griffith Family will go down together with me?!” With blood trickling down the corner of his lips, Johan tried to struggle and put on a brave front. An impassive Alexander stepped on him even harder—so hard that Johan was unable to even raise his head. With his head glued to the floor, he resembled a tortoise that was flipped upside down, and the only parts he could move around were his limbs.
