Chapter 1129 Two Drunken Fools
Upon hearing Donald's words, Geraldine appeared to find them reasonable.
The failure of the collaboration was not solely her fault. If she was the only one putting in all the effort, working tirelessly, even a forced collaboration was bound to encounter problems.
After adjusting her mood, Geraldine smiled at Donald and said, "Never mind, if the collaboration doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. Let's just treat these three days as a vacation. Donald, what would you like to eat? An Iugrean feast or some street food? Give me a moment to check my guidebook. It should have some recommendations on where to find good food."

As Geraldine was speaking, the sound of a quarrel suddenly erupted from ahead.
Both of them looked up, only to find that Lina was being blocked by two intoxicated men.
These two middle-aged men, drunk and burly, were continuously leering at Lina.
Lina nervously clutched her handbag, loudly proclaiming that she was going to call the police.
"Come on, Miss. This is Iugrea. Do you think calling the police will help?"
Duccio rolled up his sleeve, revealing a black skull tattoo.
Upon seeing the skull tattoo, Lina was immediately taken aback.
She recognized the logo as belonging to Testa Nera, the second-largest mafia organization in Iugrea.
The members of this organization committed all sorts of heinous acts, from murder to arson. Even if the police were to arrive, they wouldn't bat an eye.
Realizing that these two men were determined to take her away, Lina seized an opportunity when they were distracted. She swung her handbag fiercely, aiming straight at the face of one of them.
"Damn, this despicable woman. Catch her!"
Although Lina reacted quickly, she couldn't match the speed of those two men.
She had only run a few meters when one of the men violently grabbed Lina's golden long hair from behind.
With blood trickling from the corner of his eye, Duccio strode over and fiercely slapped Lina across the face.
"Anyone daring enough to offend Testa Nera must truly be tired of living. After I've had my fun, I'll sell you off to the town of Cutvine."
Cutvine was a notorious lawless place in Iugrea. If Lina was really sold to such a place, she could forget about ever leaving the town alive.
Just as the two were dragging Lina toward the car, Geraldine shouted at them, "Stop! Let her go!"
The two burly men paused in their tracks, their gazes turned lecherous as they looked at Geraldine.
"An Aplothian? Her skin is quite fair though. Enver, go fetch her. If we take her to the town of Cutvine, we should be able to get a good price for her."
Enver let go of Lina's leg and turned to walk toward Geraldine.
The previously imposing Geraldine immediately took cover behind Donald.
"Donald, save me!"
Donald rolled his eyes, speaking somewhat helplessly, "They don't even consider you a business partner, yet you're rushing to meddle in their affairs. In the end, isn't it me who has to clean up your mess?"
Upon hearing Donald mention cleaning up her mess, even though Geraldine knew that wasn't what he meant, she still blushed and pinched the soft flesh on his waist.
"You promised Jenny that you would protect me when we're out. If you don't care about me, I'll call Jenny and tell on you!"
Ah, she's bringing up Jennifer again.
Watching Enver approach him, Donald sighed and said, "I don't want to resort to violence. Let the woman go and leave immediately. I can pretend as if nothing happened."
Enver and Duccio burst into hearty laughter after hearing it.
Judging by their physique, Donald was like a frail child compared to them.
They had bulging muscles, but what did Donald have?
One couldn't even see any muscle definition on his body.
Enver, with a clenched fist and a sinister grin, started walking toward Donald.
"I'll give you a chance as well. Hand over the woman behind you to me, and I can pretend as if nothing has happened."
