Instant Millionaire novel Chapter 45

The source of that voice originated from a dining table ten or so meters away, and the other female customers all cast unsatisfactory glances in his direction.

“Look at his naive appearance, I wonder which mental hospital has he escaped from.”

“You guys are wrong, he must be missing his girlfriend dearly. Look at his pitiful face, I guess that his girlfriend is either dead or has eloped with another man.”

Initially, Quincy never planned to pay any heed to these people’s nonsensical words, but when they started to humiliate Jane, he felt a smoldering anger surging up from within.

He immediately slammed the dining table hard as he stood up. He glared at the six or seven instigators sitting in another table. They all had a sturdy and hard-knocked look as they sported golden chains, clothes with flowery design, tattoos as well as having bald heads.

“Oh? Kid, you must think that you look so good right now. If you really have guts, say it to our faces here.” One of the thugs who looked like their leader said with a relaxed expression.

Jane was the apple in Quincy’s heart, so he could never tolerate anybody humiliating her or mouthing off about her to him. No matter who that person was, Quincy would determine to let them shut up, so he took a wine bottle and was about to march towards them.

“Quincy.”

At this moment, a light yet subtle voice drifted into his ears. It was Jane! Quincy froze briefly before taking a look of that person sitting opposite his seat.

Jane was sitting there alright, and she looked serene and calm. In an instant, all the anger on Quincy’s face dissipated, and it was replaced by a smile.

“Sit down now and accompany me for a meal.” Jane said with a smile.

“Alright.” Quincy stared at Jane’s face while uttering some vague reply. He replaced the wine bottle on the table and retook his seat.

The customers nearby were all fazed by the turn of events. What the hell was happening? Who was Quincy talking to? There was nobody sitting opposite him at all. Had he gone crazy?

“I am just looking forward to how badass he would be! I think he’s just a coward who likes to pretend!”

“If he really comes at us, I will beat him up to the point that his mother wouldn’t be able to recognize him!”

“Let’s not care about this nobody anymore, who knows if he really did come from a mental hospital.”

At this time, Quincy could “see” Jane smiling at him, as if she had already forgiven him.

Quincy was beyond happy.

“What the hell, you have spilled something on my arm, you fool!” Suddenly, a loud commotion broke out in the restaurant as someone were screaming loudly. A loud crashing sound of tables and chairs toppling over followed closely as someone said, “Fuck you!”

“Ah…” Quincy was fetching some dishes for Jane, and suddenly Jane let out a scream as she looked like she was being hit by a force. She crashed to the floor in an instant.

“Jane, what’s wrong with you?” Quincy frantically moved forward to help Jane up, but at that juncture, Jane suddenly disappeared into thin air right in front of his eyes.

“Jane, Jane…” Quincy anxiously called out her name.

“Sir, please calm down…” The waiter came to hold Quincy and Quincy took this chance to ask the waiter, “Have you seen my girlfriend? She was here a moment ago, but now she’s gone. Was it you guys who have hidden her…”

“Sir, your girlfriend is never here in the first place, everything is just your imagination. You can take a look yourself.” The waiter explained frantically as he pointed at the seat opposite Quincy.

Quincy took a look and saw that on the plate opposite him, there were countless dishes such as prawns, eels, duck liver, caviar. Jane should have eaten all of those, so why were those food still being left untouched…

“I’m sorry…” Quincy suddenly understood that everything was just his fantasy. He apologized to the waiter in a low voice as he was about to leave with a messed-up head.

“Do you think a simple apology will do it? Damn it, haven’t you heard of me? I’m the mighty Bryan, and I won’t ask you to compensate me. You just have to follow me and wash my clothes with your own hands. If you can do that, I won’t haggle with you.” Bryan blared loudly.

Suddenly, a sound of clothes being torn off could be heard.

At the same time, a helpless girl let out a shriek, “Don’t pull me!”

Quincy who was already at the entrance stopped in his tracks.

That girl’s scream sounded like a thunder as it struck Quincy’s head.

This voice belonged to Jane!

Quincy was trembling as he was afraid this was yet again his hallucination. He turned around slowly and started to head towards where Bryan was.

At that time, his dining table was surrounded by onlookers, so Quincy couldn’t see at a glance the face of that girl.

Among the crowd, the manager of the restaurant was there too. Seeing that Jane was in an altercation with Bryan, his eyebrows knitted greatly.

Without the need to ask around, the manager was sure that this fiasco was instigated by Bryan.

The last time around, Bryan employed the same method to deceive one of the waitresses and brought her to his house. He had humiliated her and in response the restaurant had to compensate her family for more than two hundred thousand Yuan!

On the other hand, Bryan was left untouched because he was with the underground gangsters. He had major influence in this area.

“You useless thing, how can you offend Bryan? Get lost now!” The manager glared at the waitress and scolded.

The waitress who was being scolded was none other than Jane.

Jane looked very pitiful and embarrassed as her attire was being damaged in front of so many people. Despite that, she knew that the manager was actually helping her, so she scurried into the kitchen of the restaurant while covering her tear-stricken face.

When Quincy was there at the scene, he could only steal a glance of Jane’s silhouette.
