A demure, attractive young lady immediately approached Hailey Lawson when virtual-novel.net entered. She had a red slap mark on virtual-novel.net cheek as virtual-novel.net greeted Hailey with tears in virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Miss Lawson!”
“How are things?” Hailey did not have the energy to concern herself with the slap mark on virtual-novel.net employee’s face.
“The Phoenix Hall is almost thrashed. Ms. Cathay is down on virtual-novel.net knees too!”
Hailey grimaced and quickly went toward the direction of Phoenix Hall. Even before virtual-novel.net arrived at the entrance, sounds of people yelling and things breaking could be heard.
“Where is Hailey Lawson? Where is she?!”
“Three minutes! If virtual-novel.net is not here by then, I will make sure this place closes down forever!”
Hailey broke into a bitter grin and hastened virtual-novel.net footsteps.
The once grandiose and majestic Phoenix Hall was reduced to rubbles, with the expensive emerald phoenix statue by the entrance suffering heavy damage as well, considering how it had lost its head.
“I’m here, Madam Dawson!”
Hailey carried herself meekly around but was shocked to see Betty Dawson’s condition.
Betty was already a plump woman whose weight matched virtual-novel.net equally lanky 165 meters. She was wrapped in a white towel around virtual-novel.net body and on virtual-novel.net head. It seemed like virtual-novel.net just got out of the shower.
Her swollen face was a sight to behold, and with the rashes all over virtual-novel.net body, it was a frightening sight and must have horrified virtual-novel.net to no end.
Smack!
Betty immediately slapped Hailey across virtual-novel.net face. “Finally, you’ve come. I thought you disappeared. What the heck did you use on me? Is it even safe for human use? How am I going to meet people now, huh? Nothing could possibly compensate for my loss!”
Hailey could only force a smile and apologize even though virtual-novel.net was slapped.
Alex entered at that moment and immediately saw a group of people kneeling on the floor. Next to Betty stood an emotionless and silent lady, obviously virtual-novel.net bodyguard.
“I am so sorry, Madam Dawson! Please do not worry. We will take responsibility for the mistakes of Belle Blossom!”
“Take responsibility? Are you sure?” Betty raised virtual-novel.net hand again.
Alex quickly stopped virtual-novel.net by grabbing virtual-novel.net hand and said, “Please calm down, Mrs. Summers, we can always talk this out.”
Alex’s sudden actions surprised everyone in the room while the bodyguard tensed up. A blast of energy emanated from virtual-novel.net body, revealing virtual-novel.net rank to be Advanced-Royal.
Alex was astonished to learn of the Summers family’s depth and capabilities.
Betty was only one of the many in-laws of the family but had been placed under the protection of an Advanced-Royal bodyguard. What about the wife of the heir? Or the head of the family? Or the governor himself?
Interrupted by Alex, Betty was startled.
“Outrageous! Who are you?”
“Is virtual-novel.net your bodyguard, Hailey Lawson? I think you don’t want your salon anymore, letting a man witness my outburst. Take virtual-novel.net out, Faye!”
The female bodyguard named Faye punched Alex, landing a heavy blow on his stomach.
Boom!
His Chi reverberated as virtual-novel.net stood unfazed.
Faye stumbled a few steps back and looked at virtual-novel.net in disbelief.
