Unfortunately, that exact movement was caught dead-on by Xavier and Hazel, who were standing just a short distance away.
Hazel lunged forward in a blind rage, shoved Alaric away, and slapped him hard across the face.
It happened so fast that no one had time to react.
Hazel quickly pulled Ivy behind her, shielding her as she screamed in disgust.
“You creep! You absolute pervert! How dare you grope my sister right in front of us? Don't think just because you're some hotshot CEO you can do whatever you want!”
Xavier was equally furious, his fists clenching tightly at his sides.
But he couldn't actually throw a punch at Alaric.
This was not a man anyone dared to cross.
Before Alaric could unleash his fury, Xavier stepped in front of the two women, voicing his outrage.
“Alaric, I always thought you were an honorable man. You might be cold, but at least you respected women. How could you humiliate a girl like this?”
Taking a slap to the face for absolutely no reason left Alaric incredibly frustrated.
If this girl weren't Ivy's sister, he would have made sure she never walked off this golf course.
But since she was his sister-in-law, he had to let it slide.
His gaze bypassed Xavier and Hazel, landing squarely on Ivy.
A dark, playful smirk curled his lips. “Didn't you bring her here specifically to seduce me?”
“Bullshit!”
Hazel exploded, completely throwing out any pretense of etiquette.
“So what if you're a little good-looking and have some money? You're an old man in your thirties with a kid. We’d have to be blind to want my sister to seduce you!”
“You're just a hypocritical bastard. A total creep!”
“Hazel.”
Seeing that her sister was genuinely losing her mind with anger, Ivy quickly pulled her back.
“I’m fine.”
Hazel looked at her, entirely consumed by guilt.
“Ivy, I am so sorry. I never should have brought you here. He totally assaulted you. We're calling the cops.”
Refusing to let her sister swallow this humiliation, Hazel yanked out her phone to dial the police.
Just as she was spiraling in confusion, Ivy softly intervened.
“Alright, I really didn't feel Mr. Foster do anything to me. Please don't be upset on my behalf.”
Hazel realized Alaric had technically saved her life. If she kept escalating this, wouldn't she be biting the hand that fed her?
But he definitely felt her sister up just now.
Hazel still felt sick to her stomach, standing there fuming.
Xavier felt equally disgusted. He turned to Ivy.
“Take Hazel over there to rest for a bit. I’ll make sure Alaric apologizes to you.”
Ivy had no choice but to agree and led her sister away.
Xavier marched over to Alaric, his expression grim.
“Alaric, we never intended for anyone to seduce you, but you entirely disrespected Ivy just now. I expect you to go apologize to her.”
A handsome, mocking smile played on Alaric's lips as he readily agreed.
“Sure. I’ll personally apologize to her at lunch.”
