Chapter 358 Punishment
Chase was in the middle of bragging when the hospital room door was suddenly kicked open with a loud bang.
The explosive noise startled everyone inside.

Chase’s friends turned in shock, only to see a man standing at the doorway in a loud, patterned shirt, his expression icy and dangerous, with two stone–faced bodyguards behind him who clearly weren’t to be messed with.
“M–Mr. Lucas?”
Someone recognized him, their voice cracking.
Lucas was infamous in Kingstowne’s rich playboy circle. Powerful background, violent temper, and no regard for rules. Everyone feared him.
You could say they were rich brats, but Lucas was the king of them. The guy feared nothing.
Lucas ignored them entirely. His gaze locked straight onto Chase on the hospital bed, the corner of his mouth curling into a cold smile as he walked over step by step.
“W–what do you want?” Chase felt his scalp prickle under that look and struggled to sit up.
Lucas stopped at the bedside, looked down at him, and without a word lifted his leg and kicked hard at Chase’s arm, the one wrapped in a cast.
“Ahhh!!”
Chase screamed in agony, nearly rolling off the bed from the pain.
“Lucas, are you insane?”
Chase’s friends were furious and panicked, rushing forward to stop him, but Lucas’s bodyguards easily pinned them against the wall.
As if he hadn’t heard the screams, Lucas kicked Chase again, this time straight at his leg, brutal and precise, aiming right at the injury.
“Like going on blind dates, do you?
“Like stealing someone else’s woman, do you?
“Sebastian’s my friend, and Noelle’s mine. Who the hell do you think you are, touching either of them?”
Lucas cursed as he kicked, his voice cold and vicious.
Chase was completely helpless–new pain piled onto old injuries. He sobbed and begged, “Mr. Lucas… Mr. Lucas, I was wrong…! won’t dare again… Please, let me go…”
Lucas finally stopped. He glanced at Chase, who was sprawled on the bed like trash, then brushed off his pant leg as if dusted with
filth.
“Listen carefully, you punk.”

He bent down, his voice low but razor–cold. “If I ever hear Noelle’s or Sebastian’s name come out of your mouth again, or if you dare get any ideas, you won’t just be spending a few days in a hospital bed. Got it?”
Chase was terrified out of his mind, tears and snot streaming as he nodded frantically, “G–got it, Mr. Lucas…”
Lucas straightened and gave his bodyguards a look.
They released Chase’s friends, who stood there trembling.
“Let’s go.”
Lucas turned and walked out of the hospital room without looking back, as if he’d just taken out the trash.
The moment he stepped outside the hospital, his phone rang.
It was Brandon.
Lucas raised an eyebrow and answered lazily, “What’s up?”
“Lucas!!” Brandon’s furious roar came through the phone. “You’ve caused trouble again! Did you beat up the Lancasters‘ son and send him to the hospital? In public, no less! Do you have any respect for the law? For family rules?”
Lucas dug a finger into his ear, utterly indifferent. “Yeah, I did. So?”
“So? You’re asking me ‘so‘? The Lancasters called me directly! Saying you’re out of line! You … you’re outrageous!”
“Outrageous?” Lucas laughed coldly. “I’ve done worse. Stay out of this. Chase deserved it. He didn’t know his place and went after my people.”
“You ungrateful brat! Get back here right now!”
“Can’t. I’m busy.” Lucas hung up and casually turned off his phone.
He knew Brandon would be furious.
But he didn’t care.
Let him blow.
Sebastian and Noelle were his people. Anyone who dared bully his friends, even if it was the king himself, Lucas would still kick first and ask questions later.
The Steele villa.
Brandon stared at the dead phone tone, his face dark with rage, chest heaving.
He slammed the phone down and pointed at the butler, his finger shaking. “Go! Get the whip! I’m breaking that little bastard’s legs today!”
Meanwhile.
Noelle had no idea any of this had happened.
