Lauren immediately panicked and kept retreating backwards until she reached a corner where there was no space for her to retreat further.
She was from DC, where most girls were rather tough. Her younger brother, Brad, could take on five people alone in a fight.
Lauren also enjoyed skiing and other sports, but since she gave birth to Chloe, she became a full-time mother and stopped working out for several years.
After all, Lauren was a woman and there was no way she could deal with an adult like Steve, who was also a security officer.
Hence, Lauren said, "Steve, I know you've been drinking, so you're not very sober now. Open the door and let me out, and I'll pretend that this matter did not happen, okay?"
Steve smiled and asked, "Let you go? That won't do. How can I miss such a great opportunity?"
"Lauren, why don't you sleep with me once and I'll raise your husband's salary?"
The foolish Steve actually thought that Jordan and Lauren were ordinary people and that he could use his power and authority as the manager of the security department to make his subordinate's wife sleep with him!
Lauren said, "Steve, look at my clothes clearly. Look at every single piece of my clothing. Each one of them costs at least a few thousand dollars! I'm not from an ordinary family and neither is Jordan. He's here to work for fun. We're not ordinary people!"
"If you dare to try anything funny, you'll have to bear serious consequences!"
Steve was so drunk that he couldn't tell if Lauren was wealthy or not.
"Hmph, so what if you're from a rich family? You're so pretty. I don't mind going to jail for a few years!"
At this moment, Jordan and Chloe had already arrived at the fountain. Jordan turned around, only to realize that Lauren didn't catch up to them.
"That's strange. Where's Lauren?"
Jordan was a little worried, and he said to Chloe, "Baby, stay here, don't move around. I'll go get Mommy to come here and play with you, okay?"
"Okay!" Chloe was very obedient.
Jordan walked back, but Lauren was still nowhere in sight.
Hence, he called Lauren.
As soon as his phone rang, he heard Lauren exclaim loudly, "Jordan, come save me quickly!"
"Bitch, how dare you call him!?!"
Jordan heard Lauren's and Steve's voice at the same time.
"Damn!"
After the past two days of interacting with Steve, Jordan could tell that he wasn't a good person. Besides, he had drunk a lot of wine today, so Jordan knew he might harm Lauren in a drunken stupor!
"Lauren!"
Jordan quickly ran towards the resting room for security officers. He was so fast that he was like a phantom darting across!
Jordan sprinted towards the resting room like he was doing a 100-meter race, kicking the locked door!
At this moment, Steve was fighting with Lauren.
"Bastard, you've got a death wish!"
Jordan dragged Steve over and then punched him in the face.
Bang!
After throwing a punch at him, Jordan was still dissatisfied and thus proceeded to punch him again.
Jordan managed to knock Steve unconscious with just two hard punches.
However, Jordan didn't stop and instead continued to hit him!
At this moment, Jay hurried over, and hurriedly pulled Jordan when he saw that Steve's face was swollen and battered with bruises. He frantically pulled Jordan and exclaimed, "Jordan, stop hitting him! If you keep hitting him, he'll die!"
Jordan was enraged. "This beast must die!"
Jay said, "Don't be reckless. If you beat him till he dies, you'll have to go to jail, too. No one will protect your wife and kids anymore."
Jay and Steve were on good terms with each other and Jay had known Steve for much longer than Jordan did, so he knew what kind of person Steve was.
He looked and knew right away that Steve was trying to take liberty with Jordan's wife.
