Chapter 751
Both Madeline and Jeremy turned to look in the direction the bartender was pointing and found a familiar figure in the circle of drinking and boxing men.
However, before they could take a better look at the woman thanks to the intersecting lights of the bar shining into their eyes, they saw her look down at her phone before leaving.
Madeline and Jeremy immediately rushed after her. Chasing to the entrance, a man who smelled heavily of alcohol came to stand in front of Madeline. “Hey, girl. It’s been a while and you look prettier already. I’m free tonight, so how about we go have some fun in a hotel tonight?”
Madeline was certain that the man had mistaken her for Felicity. She was about to speak when Jeremy reached out to take her hand. He gave the man a cold glare. “You have the wrong person.”
“How could I have the wrong person? Did you forget, baby? We were having so much fun on the bed last time—”
Bang!
“Ow!”
Jeremy sent a punch to the man’s face for he could no longer take the vulgar slander.
The man shouted and cupped his face in pain.
“Let’s go, Linnie.” Jeremy took her hand and turned to leave.
They had barely made two steps when the man behind them began to curse expletives at them.
Neither of them paid him any heed as they exited to the street to chase after Felicity. However, they soon heard a mixed cacophony of footsteps behind them. Turning to look, they saw the man who Jeremy had just punched chasing after them with a bunch of other ferocious-looking men.
“Go back to the hotel first, Linnie. I’ll deal with this.” Jeremy let go of Madeline.
He did not expect Madeline to grab his hand again the next second. “There are all sorts of people here willing to do almost anything. Killing is nothing to them. It’s not worth the risk, so let’s just leave.”
Seeing the people grow closer, Jeremy nodded and tightened his hand as they ran toward the street.
“Chase after them!”
