Chapter 36
She did indeed have a good impression of Richard because she felt that Richard did not only have a good personality, but he was also very practical. Moreover, it seemed as though his background was not as simple as it looked.
She could actually consider getting into a relationship with Richard and the both of them could become boyfriend and girlfriend.
For this reason, Alice took this initiative to approach Richard without any hesitation at all.
She wanted to draw Richard’s attention to herself again.
But the result was ... Ahh! She did not want to say anything anymore!
“Hayley, I am going to the washroom!”
She was dumbfounded and quickly came up with an excuse to leave the room.
After that, Jacelyn followed anxiously behind her.
After all, she felt that she was also responsible for the reason why Alice ended up this way.
No one spoke at all in the room.
There was silence in the room for at least ten minutes.
Finally, Harper broke the silence. “No matter what everyone thinks, deep down in my heart, I believe that Richard is not that kind of person!”
What he said to Hayley in the past was really just a joke between lovers.
However, he never expected Hayley to take his words so seriously.
“We believe in Richard too!” Benjamin and the other guys also nodded as they looked at Richard.
“Come on, everyone. Let’s have a drink together!”
Harper suggested.
As a result, none of them raised their glasses aside from Richard’s roommates.
Richard felt very embarrassed at this time. Alice had already run away out of anger, and he was already at this point again now.
A good and pleasant birthday banquet had turned out this way.
Moreover, it was all because of him. If he continued to stay here, he was afraid that he would cause any further embarrassment for Harper and Hayley.
If he knew that this would happen, he would not have come at all!
Richard was about to say that he would also be leaving.
At this time, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open. It was Jacelyn who was rushing into the room in a hurry, and she was covering her face with her hand.
“Danny, I got hit! They are dragging Alice along with them now. They want to force Alice to accompany them and drink with them!”
“What?”
Danny was taken aback when he heard that his girlfriend had been hit. This was really shameful and humiliating.
He looked at Chad hastily.
Chad said coldly, “Don’t they know who this land belongs to? They actually dare to act so bold and recklessly? I think that they do not want to live anymore!”
At this time, the two cousins stood up immediately and walked outside with one hand in their pockets.
Harper, Richard, and the rest of the group also hurried out when they heard that something was wrong.
Richard found out the ins and outs of the matter as Jacelyn continued yelling about it.
It turned out that when Alice went to the washroom earlier, Jacelyn had followed behind her and she was washing her hand at the basin.
A few young men had walked by and seen that Alice and Jacelyn were both exceptional beauties.
This was especially so for Jacelyn who was dressed very sexily.
A young man who had obviously drank too much came forward to ask them for their number, even trying to touch them inappropriately.
Alice had given that man a slap across his face directly, and Jacelyn had also hit the man in his head.
After that, the man had slapped Jacelyn, and Jacelyn had quickly run away in a hurry after she had gotten hit.
The young man called a few of his friends to come over before they blocked Alice’s way. They kept forcing Alice to drink with them.
Jacelyn kept yelling and shouting as she ran back to the room.
After that, Richard and the rest rushed over immediately.
At this time, the two parties had already confronted each other.
There were four men who were dragging and forcing Alice to drink with them. They were all quite young and they seemed to be students who were about the same age as them.
Chad kept making phone calls on his cell phone, as though he was calling for backup.
At this time, Jacelyn pointed at the four students as she continued cursing at them.
Although Alice did not get hit, everything that happened today made her feel extremely depressed.
“Today, I am going to deal with each and every one of you. Since you dare to hit my sister-in-law, none of you are going to leave this place unscathed today!”
Chad yelled arrogantly after he made the phone call.
He was very familiar with this scene, and he also knew the owner of this place very well.
The four young men were dressed extraordinarily and they were all very unconvinced and displeased at this time. They really wanted to see what Chad was going to do to them.
“Fa la la!”
Not long after, several vans stopped in front of the entrance.
More than a dozen men with a buzz cut stepped out of the car as they entered the manor. The manor was suddenly crowded with people...
Chad was very influential.
He had called a dozen people out there.
The four students were all frightened.
They said nothing at all.
Slap!
Jacelyn walked up and raised her hand as she slapped the four of them across their faces.
The four of them were furious but they did not dare to say anything.
“What are you looking at? You dared to hit me? I will teach you a lesson for touching me today!”
“You dared to hit me? If you dare to hit me, just wait and see how I am going to deal with you!”
The leader of these four men was the one who had taken the initiative to try and molest Jacelyn and Alice. He responded aggressively as he held his face with an aggrieved expression.
He was frightened, but he was also very angry.
He rarely ever failed to get any girl that he wanted. However, he really did not expect to get slapped by this beautiful girl before getting slapped by this little shrew.
He had never been insulted and humiliated like this before!
“D*mn it! Does he still want to talk back? Beat them up!”
Chad was very arrogant and full of pride at this moment. As soon as he waved his hand, the crowd of people rushed up and surrounded the four young men.
They started beating them up.
Danny also followed behind them as he hit and kicked those men a couple of times.
The four men got beaten up until they were already holding their heads in their hands as they tried to scurry away. In the end, the boss of the villa stepped in to stop the fight. He pulled them apart before he asked the four young men to leave immediately.
He felt that someone would lose their life if he allowed this to continue!
“Wow! Brother Chad is amazing!”
“Unexpectedly, Brother Chad is really very stable and mature! I did not expect to see this side of him at all!”
“Awesome! He is so cool!”
The group of girls instantly became Chad’s fans.
For those who were mixing around, the more power they had, the more they would be able to give a sense of security to these beautiful students.
They had this kind of mentality.
“Brother Chad, thank you for everything today!”
Alice was actually feeling pretty refreshed right now.
The depressed feeling that she had before had already been completely wiped out.
To be honest, she really liked those who were mature and stable in the past.
