His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1233

"Apologize to Shawn, or we'll kick your ass."

"Hurry up! If you do what Shawn asked of you, we'll let you go." The crowd started to urge Nick to make an apology.

Looking slightly embarrassed, Nick fixed his eyes on Cassie, but to his dismay, she turned her face away to avoid meeting his gaze.

"I'm sorry for my rude behaviors. I mistook her for someone else. I thought she was my friend." Nick humbly apologized to Shawn, though he felt frustrated inside.

Shawn regarded him as nothing but a clown. Looking away from him, he let out a cold and scornful laugh.

Nick cast a glance at Cassie, but she turned her head away again. Battling with the surge of disappointment that was gripping him, he silently headed straight to the door.

As soon as Nick exited the booth, the people inside started to drink and talk again as if nothing had happened.

"Well, it turns out you're interested in me. So, why did you refuse my invitation? It must hurt. Let me have a look," Shawn coaxed. He wanted to caress her face, which was slightly bruising up.

Cassie carefully stepped backward, dodging his touch. Staring at him, she pleaded, "I'm begging you. Please let me go. I need to leave."

"Leave? Where are you going? Are you going to find that man? If that's the case, I can ask my men to bring him back. I'd like to know who he is," Shawn snorted as he was beckoning the other guys with a wave of his hand.

Cassie flew into a panic when she heard his words. She moved a step closer and clung to his arm. With a rattled expression, she implored, "Please don't. I don't know that guy."

"That's my good girl." With an evil grin on his face, he touched her cheek as he said, "You're such a nice girl. I will reward you."

He draped his arm around her shoulder and escorted her to the corner of the booth, pinching her waist from time to time.

Cassie gnawed on her lower lip helplessly. She was enduring the unpleasant feelings of being taken advantage of by a disgusting man.

She could still see Nick not far away from where she was when she discreetly looked at the door. 'I can't displease this man, or else Nick will be taken here.

What if they beat him up? He can't be hurt. He hasn't fully recovered yet. For his sake, I have to be strong and endure this.

Nothing is more important than his safety, ' she brooded.

Instead of leaving Cassie, Nick hid in a corner near the booth. He could overhear the noise inside, including the conversation between Cassie and Shawn.

He clenched his fists in anger.

He finally understood why Cassie had pretended not to know him and treated him in such an indifferent manner.

It turned out that she was only doing this to protect him.

'Cassie is afraid that those people will probably hurt me. I can tell that those guys are from rich families. I am a nobody, and I can't afford to mess with them. The only way I can do is to hide like this, ' he mused with a scowl.

However, at the thought of the innocent girl who was being bullied inside the room, he definitely couldn't ignore her and walk away from her.

'I was too reckless. I saw Cassie get slapped, so I broke in. But my reckless behaviors almost got us in big trouble. I shouldn't have acted that way. It is a wrong decision, ' he reflected.

'Obviously, that man in the booth likes Cassie. He will not let her leave until he gets his way on her.'

The longer Cassie stayed there, the more dangerous the situation was for her. He was so nervous that he got beads on his forehead. He wasn't able to think of a good idea to help Cassie out without getting himself into trouble.

'Oh, geez, what should I do?' he wondered anxiously.

He eventually decided to call the police.
