Chapter 37: He Offended the Wrong Guy
Chapter 37: He Offended the Wrong Guy
This was because some people had already recognized the cyclist. He was none other than Greta's
husband, an idle good-for-nothing.
When those people saw Maxwell, they wished to beat him up together. They would be OK with it if their
favorite woman was with an elegant gentleman. But they couldn't allow a man like Maxwell to touch
her.
What surprised them more, Maxwell had hooked up with another extremely beautiful woman. In terms
of temperament, she was not inferior to Greta at all. It could even be said that she was more elegant
than Greta.
Contempt and hatred filled their hearts. They couldn't understand how this fellow managed to win
women's favor. He was just a useless man living off his wife, yet so many beauties appeared beside
him ... This was so unfair!
Some people were even burning with rage when seeing Maxwell with Harriet. He already owned the
prettiest woman in Ocean City, yet he still dared to hook up with someone else!
Fortunately, Maxwell didn't have to face other people's mockeries for so long. He quickly drove Harriet
far away from the Sandoval Tower.
Maxwell's bicycle looked tattered, but its speed wasn't low at all. In just half an hour, they came to a
hotpot restaurant.
He rode his bike at the same speed as Leila drove a Rolls Royce.
"We're here," Maxwell said.
After Maxwell parked the bicycle, he walked into a hotpot restaurant with Harriet. They found a
secluded corner and sat down.
"Can you eat spicy food?" Maxwell asked.
"Of course I can. My ability to eat spicy food is beyond your imagination." Harriet wore an attractive
smile, which made Maxwell's heart skip a beat.
"OK. Then I will order a spicy hotpot." With a smile, Maxwell picked up the menu and handed it to
Harriet.
After Harriet ordered some side dishes, Maxwell casually ordered a few more.
Maxwell sat opposite her and said, "Ms. Harriet, you seem to be very interested in me."
"The reason is very simple. I've never seen someone as interesting as you." Harriet's smile was as
gentle as the spring breeze. Compared with Greta's cold and aloof attitude, her expression made
people feel much more comfortable.
"What's so interesting about me?" Maxwell was a bit confused.
Harriet looked up and fixed her eyes on him. "I've always been an observant girl. You are hiding
something from Greta on purpose, aren't you?"
Maxwell could feel his heart pounding in his chest. Harriet's words caused him to be nervous!
However, he still wore a smile, and he looked quite calm.
"Ms. Harriet, I don't understand what you're saying." Maxwell smiled faintly. He didn't seem to be
pretending to stay calm.
"Haven't I made myself clear enough? Then I will be more direct with you." After the side dishes were
served, Harriet put some beef into the hotpot. "How could an idle man like you be proficient in France
and skilled in slicing fruits? You even detected loopholes in Leila's professional layout..."
"What's your purpose of being with Greta? Do you covet her money or something else?" Harriet's smile
didn't disappear. She stared at Maxwell, wanting to get a clue from his expression.
However, she failed. Maxwell looked extremely calm without changing his expression. He didn't seem
to know Harriet was probing him. To be more specific, he was unaware that Harriet was referring to
him....
Harriet had no idea that Maxwell had received spy training before. He was able to conceal his inner
feelings at any time ... No matter how flustered he was, he was composed on the surface.
"Ms. Harriet, I don't know what you're talking about. When my friend and I worked in France, we
learned French in the back of a restaurant. As for the loophole, it was purely out of my luck..." Maxwell
was still as calm as ever, and he even put some mutton in Harriet's bowl.
"My marriage to Ms. Greta is up to her father, Derrick. I think you'd better ask him for further
information," Maxwell continued with a smile.
"It's fine. I'm just joking." Harriet stopped probing him. She couldn't get any useful information from him.
Although she was still puzzled, she couldn't prove her guess.
Right at this moment, on a table not far from them, there were a few drunkards drinking beer. Their
voices were loud, and they didn't care about others' feelings at all. The cheerful atmosphere of the
entire restaurant was damaged by them....
Suddenly, a burly man saw Harriet. Then he stared straight at her with a meaningful smile.
"Sir, this girl is so pretty!" He suddenly pointed at Harriet and said loudly.
The rest of the men followed the direction and saw Harriet. They suddenly felt a surge of desire for her!
Since their sexual desire was aroused, these people became more unscrupulous. They had never seen
such a gorgeous girl like Harriet, and they were almost drooling!
"Fuck! I haven't seen such a beauty for so long! She is so hot!"
"Sir, we haven't slept with women for a long time!"
The drunkards laughed and made a loud noise without restraint, causing many diners to panic. They
moved far away and dared not approach them!
The burly man in the lead narrowed his eyes and carefully sized up Harriet. She had a seductive
appearance, full-sized breasts and exquisite legs under her short skirt ... She was perfect!
"Damn it! She should be with us! That small man isn't worthy of her!" He sneered and saw Maxwell by
the side. There was a hint of disdain on his cold face.
"That's right. He probably won't be able to satisfy her desire!"
"Let's go and greet her!" With that, the burly man suddenly stood up. Following him, the others
immediately rushed towards Harriet!
Harriet's expression changed slightly, with her delicate face turning pale. She did not expect trouble to
come so quickly!
"It's fine. I'm here." Suddenly, Maxwell put some vegetables into Harriet's bowl, which made her feel
relieved. Her heart no longer beat wildly, and she restored her composure.
Staring meaningfully at Maxwell, she blinked. She was very curious about what kind of surprise this
man would give her this time....
However, Harriet's reaction was so alluring. Maxwell couldn't help but be uneasy.
"Beauty, can we have dinner together?" Those burly men walked to the table and stared at Harriet with
lustful thoughts.
"Sorry. I have an appointment with someone else." Harriet smiled apologetically, but her smile made
them so excited that they almost shouted on the spot.
"Come on, beauty. We can take you to dinner ... We are more interesting than the person you are
dating ... We know how to turn you on..." Those burly men even whistled and said dirty words without
any restraint!
"Hey! Can you be a little polite? It's me who..." Maxwell said coldly and looked at those men with an
unfriendly expression.
"You?" Those burly men glanced at Maxwell and suddenly burst into laughter. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
"Holy shit! Who the fuck do you think you are? You don't deserve to eat with such a beautiful woman!"
"You want us to be polite to you? You must be daydreaming!"
"Why don't you get the hell out of here? Give us your seat, or else we'll kill you!"
They laughed out loud. The restaurant was in chaos. Many diners stared at Maxwell and thought to
themselves that something bad was about to happen.
Maxwell stared at those men, who were getting more and more presumptuous....
Maxwell smiled faintly. Suddenly, he clenched his right hand into a fist and fiercely attacked the most
arrogant one!
In the blink of an eye, that man flew backwards and smashed onto the ground!
Maxwell then slammed the table with great strength.
With his action, a bowl of hot soup was poured onto the other men. In an instant, they let out a
miserable howl!
The soup was extremely hot. Its temperature was no lower than that of the boiling water!
"Damn it! How dare you spill it on me?"
"Fuck! This is the first time I've met such a bastard like you!"
"How dare you hit me? Do you know who I am?"
The men got up from the ground one after another and surrounded Maxwell with a fierce look. The
atmosphere in the restaurant became tense instantly!
"How the hell do I know who you are..." With a sneer, Maxwell said indifferently.
"I am in charge of this street. I’m Rogelio Bernal, and everyone else calls me Lord Rogelio!" the man in
the lead said arrogantly.
"My uncle is the director of the nearby police station ... I'll give you two choices. You either have your
hands broken by me now, or you have your hands and feet cut off after you enter the prison!" Rogelio
said slowly, and his threat shocked many diners!
The residents nearby all knew Rogelio's identity. Once, he fought with another gang, and he fled after
finding it was unable to defeat them. The next day, the police caught all the hooligans who fought
against Rogelio yesterday!
Besides bullying others weaker than him, Rogelio also forced pretty women to sleep with him. No one
dared to say a word because Rogelio had someone protecting him!
Someone once tried to expose his crimes, but afterwards, they all disappeared without a trace....
Everyone treated Rogelio respectfully, and no one dared to provoke him ... However, this audacious
man beat him in front of so many people!
Many diners looked at Maxwell pitifully. They thought to themselves that another pretty woman was
about to be raped by Rogelio. As for Maxwell, he really provoked the wrong guy ... There was a good
chance that he would be finished....
When Maxwell heard the word "police", his smile became mocking and disdainful!
