When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1664

“Well, I dare you! I’ll smash your head before you can call the police!” Lucas pressed his face against the manager’s. The manager was so scared that he shut his eyes tight.

Despite the stressful atmosphere, I was reminded of the scene in Tom and Jerry where Spike, the bulldog, bullied Tom, the cat. It was hilarious. I guessed I had spent too much time with the children.

While my mind was elsewhere, Lucas slapped the manager in the face.

The sound shook me and pulled me back to reality. Only then did I realize that something was wrong. I quickly got up and stopped Lucas. “Lucas, that’s enough!”

“Stay out of this, Stovall. This is a private matter!”

After brushing me off, Lucas turned to finish off the manager. His men were fighting with the security guards too.

Noticing that the attention of the entire restaurant was on us, I blurted out, “Are you planning to bring the cops here, Lucas? We are in the city center right now. There are patrols everywhere. They can get here within ten minutes! You’d better consider your next step carefully!”

Lucas froze after hearing my advice. He smacked his lips unhappily and threw the manager on the floor.

“You!” He raised his middle finger and index finger and pointed at his own eyes, then at the manager. “Your face is engraved in my mind now!”

He then grabbed one of the underlings, who was on top of a guard, and shouted, “Are you all waiting for the police to arrest you? We’re leaving now!”

With that, the group of men left the restaurant together.

The customers started gossiping after all of their figures disappeared at the entrance. “Where do those people come from? They are so rude.”

The guards helped the manager to his feet, and blood was spotted in the corner of his mouth. He appeared lifeless. After all, not everyone could take Lucas’ slap with ease.

Since we were at the heart of the incident, I couldn’t sit back and do nothing. I took out all the cash I had from my purse and handed them to the manager. “Take these and lie low for a while. Don’t come back to K City for the time being.”

The manager pushed my hand away, as he had no clue how terrifying Lucas could be. “You don’t have to give us the cash, Madam. It’s our responsibility, after all.”
