Chapter 1120
He was infuriated and wanted to gather his friends to teach Jackson a lesson. However, before he could say anything, he felt someone yanking him by the collar. Immediately after that, he was dangling in the air.
His face turned pale with fear as he started kicking his feet around. When he lifted his head, he saw a terrifyingly dark face.
“W-Who are you?”
“Apologize to the girl now. If not, I’ll throw you into the sea to feed the fish,” Fabian warned. He was not joking at all.
The boy shrunk his neck and wetted himself from Fabian’s terrifying gaze.
Fabian looked under the boy’s feet, then threw him in front of Lillian. “Apologize.”
“I-I’ll do it! I’ll do it now!” the boy stuttered and apologized to Lillian repeatedly.
Fabian looked at the boy’s friends and they all immediately understood. Then, they ran over and started apologizing to Lillian as well.
Lillian stood behind Jackson. She looked at the boys, then back at Fabian.
“Scram!” Fabian roared at the terrifying children. The boys did not even take back their ball before running away.
Jackson looked at Fabian and thanked him sincerely, “Thanks.”
Fabian softened his expression and walked in front of Lillian. Then, he squatted before her. “Are you okay, Lily?”
He took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears away from Lillian’s eyes.
Lillian took out a piece of candy from her pocket and gave it to Fabian. She was smiling like she was thanking him.
“Lily, as long as I’m here, I won’t let anyone bully you,” promised Fabian.
Jackson looked at Fabian inquisitively. “I’m Lillian’s brother.”
“Oh.” Fabian then asked Jackson with interest, “Are you saying that Lily is only allowed to have one brother? If that’s the case, I don’t want to be her brother. I want to be something else.”
“What?” Jackson asked. There was a look of seriousness on his handsome face.
