Finished 

After a moment, the fat man recovered from the pain. Fury welled up inside him. He grabbed a wine bottle from the table, stomped his foot on Joshua’s head, and waved the bottle threateningly

You little, don’t know your place, huh? Daring to lay a finger on me. If I don’t end you today, then call me something else!” 

Despite Joshua’s skinny frame, he fought back with all his might, but it was futile

Just as the wine bottle was about to crash down on Joshua’s head, Isabelle, standing by the door, swiftly grabbed a wine bottle from a passing waiter’s tray. She barged in, flinging the bottle right at the fat man’s head, knocking him out cold on the spot

With the sound of glass shattering, Joshua didn’t waste a second to see what went down. Suddenly, his arm went slack, and the weight on him vanished. Two bodyguards got knocked flat by someone, one of them. landing hard on the sofa

A hand reached down and pulled Joshua up from the floor

Joshua looked at Isabelle who had just appeared

D’mn brat!shouted the fat man’s friend towards Isabelle, still clueless about what was happening

The next moment, he too was struck by a wine bottle hurled by Isabelle

When the manager and his crew hurried over, they found seven bigshot clients sprawled on the floor in one of the private rooms

Mr. Anderson? Mr. Milligan? WWhat’s going on?” 

The manager was bewildered and panicked, grabbing Joshua and angrily berating him

Joshua remained silent

You’re quite something, bringing your friend to fight with customers. Do you even know who Mr. Anderson is? I’ll see how the two of you get out of this!” 

Joshua remarked, It’s got nothing to do with her.” 

Isabelle was about to shut the manager up with another wine bottle when she noticed Danny passing by the door, seemingly looking for her

Isabelle stopped him. Danny 

Boss, what brings you hereWhoa! What’s going on?Danny came in and glanced around. A brawl? And you didn’t even invite me.” 

The manager, still fuming, raised his hand and was about to slap Joshua, but suddenly he saw Danny and froze. MMr. Danny?” 

When Melissa and the others showed up, Danny was in the manager’s face, giving him a piece of his mind

You dare disrespect my boss? I’ll make you eat this bottle!” 

Danny grabbed the bottle and tried to shove it into the manager’s mouth

Finished 

My buddy works for you, and instead of promoting him to manager, you have him playing host to clients. Are you sick of working in Taragon City?! Who do you think you’re embarrassing? Believe me, I’ll tear down this place, turn it into a toilet, so you can guard it every day!

‘I believe. I do, I do. The manager was on the verge of tears, continuously apologising

In the restroom, Joshua cupped his hands under the cold water and splashed his face

Leaning over the sink, he braced himself with both hands, trying to calm down

Then, he looked at himself in the mirror

The slap marks on his face were visible. Joshua used the tip of his tongue to soothe the stinging cheek. Water droplets from his dishevelled bangs dripped onto his nose

Things got a bit out of hand, and it caught the boss’s attention. The boss apologised to Danny and promised to arrange the best job for Joshua

When Joshua came back, he changed into his regular clothes, tossed his work uniform back to the manager, and then left

Isabelle followed

Boss, I haven’t even cut into the cake yet

Danny glanced over as Isabelle left, and suddenly, the birthday party lost its spark. He vented his frustration on the boss and eventually kicked the fat man and his crew out of the club

With old wounds still aching and new ones added, Joshua walked down the street, grimacing as he held his side where he’d been kicked, saying nothing

Isabelle trailed behind him

He didn’t look back as he said, Stop following me.” 

But Isabelle quickened her pace to walk alongside him. What about your job at the auto repair shop?” 

Joshua didn’t respond

Isabelle guessed that it was because of the last incident that he lost his job

Joshua continued walking aimlessly, unsure of where he was going, and Isabelle kept following him

Joshua finally asked, What do you want?” 

Isabelle replied, I just saved you, didn’t I?” 

Joshua fell silent and decided to quicken his 

pace
