Chapter 253 The Enamored One Lost

The two men were confronting each other tensely. Their fists were clenched, and a fight might happen at any second. Shocked by the situation, Burton immediately went forward to mediate. Before he could say anything, August stared at Paul and bellowed, "What did you just say?"

He clenched his fists so forcefully that the veins were popping on his arms. His muscles went taut, and his strength was waiting to be unleashed. Unwilling to be outdone, Paul tried to counter when another voice suddenly came.

"Yo, I've been waiting. Turns out you're here having a duel." Joshua lazily walked over, teased August, and pulled his friend, "Come on, it has been just a few days since we went to the boxing club, and your hands are itchy?"

The tension was eased with the sudden appearance of Joshua. He winked at Burton, went to Paul's side, and patted the man on the shoulder. "Relax, we're all men of honor. If this is photographed by the paparazzi, it will hit the headlines tomorrow."

Burton advised August and separated the two men. Joshua looked at Burton and smiled, "Take your boss to Box 666. I'll see Mr. Thomas off."

Burton took the hint, blocked August's way, and persuaded him to

inside. After the two men left, Joshua smiled, patted Paul, and said, "Mr. Thomas, it's not a big deal. I'll buy you a drink another day. Be sure to accept my invitation."

Paul's face was icy cold. He did his best to fight back his anger.

"I'm fine, goodbye."

He then strode away. Joshua glanced at the man, shook his head with a helpless smile, and went back to the box. August was drinking there alone.

Amused, Joshua went over and teased his friend, "Bro, what happened? You were impulsive back there and almost fought with Paul."

August picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and gave Joshua a cold look. "That's not your concern."

Joshua laughed and speculated boldly, "Is it became of a woman? Lucia?"

Sure enough, once the words were out of his mouth, the face of his friend turned livider. August then looked daggers at him. Joshua felt a chill and looked away with a grin. From the table, he picked up his wine glass and pointed to a bunch of people who were sitting on the other side.

"See that man named Felipe Knight? He just came back from abroad, and his father asked him to marry the second daughter of the Riley family before he could enjoy much of his bachelor life.

That lady weighs 200 pounds and eats like a horse. Can you imagine that? And that man named Ralph Norman. He just got married to his second wife. In less than a month, he started fooling around again. Bro, do you see what I mean?"

Joshua looked back at his friend. A cold look was August's only reply. He had never gotten along with these rich kids. Although he knew every one of them, he was not close to them. Joshua, however, often hung out with them.

Joshua suddenly turned serious. "You can have fun but should not get enamored, or you'll put yourself in a passive position. Those women would lead you by the nose."

In love, the enamored one lost. His friend should know the rule.

August was sensitive enough to perceive what Joshua was implying.

He asked coldly, " What do you mean?"

Joshua smiled but deliberately chose not to make it clear. "Don't you get it?"

He didn't explain until August was out of patience. "Don't you think you paid too much attention to Lucia?"

"Did I?" August snorted and indifferently sipped his wine. How could he possibly be charmed by that woman?

"Is that so?" Joshua laughed. "How about I call over two girls to have fun with you?"

Without waiting for August's response, he snapped his fingers to summon the waiter who was standing by. "Go and call over some girls. They should be pure and innocent."

The waiter immediately left to make arrangements. With pretty girls in their arms, those dandies looked over in surprise and teased him, "Joshua, are you doing it again? Can you really handle it?"

"Yeah, he wants pure and innocent girls. That's interesting." Joshua smiled and looked at the man sitting next to him. "Not my order."

Those dandies then turned to look at August with wandering eyes. Everyone in the circle knew how clean his private life was. He had never fooled around. This was strange.

August frowned at Joshua and sulked, "I don't need this." Joshua winked at him and laughed devilishly, "They'll just drink with you. What are you afraid of? This is a test of whether you're enamored."

August's eyes went cold. He intended to reject it, but the latter half of Joshua's words made him hesitate. There was no way he had feelings for Lucia. A test or what would not daunt him. Soon, a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup came in, followed by a bunch of young girls who had slim figures. As Joshua had requested, they were all pure and innocent type.

The middle-aged woman smiled at Joshua and asked, "Sir, these are all good girls. Which one do you like?"

Joshua ran his eyes over them and pointed to one with long hair. "That girl will entertain Mr. Adams, and that one will come to me."
