Chapter 3 The Skirmish at the Bar

She stared dazedly at the man in front of her and murmured, "You're so good looking, much better than my ex-boyfriend."

At the thought of her ex-boyfriend, Mollie's eyes were filled with tears once again. "Inexcusably, handsome men are all love rats and liars!"

"Why did you lie to me?"

Lucas Goodwin stared at the girl before him with confusion. There were tears upon her delicate face, and she looked like an elegant pear blossom after rain.

However, the indecent dress on her body spoiled the overall beauty. Lucas thought that she might be a college student who admired vanity and hoped to get to know a wealthy boyfriend here.

He had met countless girls who pretended to be drunk to catch his attention.

Therefore, he said in a cold voice, "Get out of my way!"

Then, he lifted his hand to push Mollie to one side mercilessly. The woman was initially unsteady on her legs, and due to the push, she fell directly to the ground.

There was a sharp pain in her knees. Mollie eventually flew into a rage.

With her teeth gritted, she swiftly stood up, grabbed Lucas by the wrist, rotated her own body, and then slammed the 1.85-meter man hard on the floor.

Just then, the loud music stopped abruptly, and people on the spot all looked at them with curiosity.

Mollie, who was still dazed, scolded angrily, "Don't think that you can bully me. Believe it or not, I'll knock all of you over!"

She had just learned that her ex-boyfriend cheated on her and wanted to dissolve her sorrows with alcohol. Still, she was not allowed to stay in peace. The man before her eyes was good-looking indeed, but so what?

Benjamin Jenkins, who came down to pick up Lucas from the second floor, was shocked to see this scene. Lucas was an overwhelming, frightening businessman in the business field in City Empire. Surprisingly, a seemingly fragile girl knocked him down in public.

Lucas was also stunned. He did not take the young woman seriously in the first place at all. Unexpectedly, his carelessness left her with a chance. He did not expect anyone to dare to hit him during his lifetime.

He supported his body with one hand, stood up gracefully, and raised his eyes condescendingly at Mollie, giving off a frosty vibe through his deep eye sockets.

"Girl, are you trying to get yourself killed?" His voice was not loud, but the coercion was tremendous.

In regular times, Mollie would feel frightened of the furious man. However, at this moment, she had no idea what she was doing.

Mollie replied in an annoyed tone of voice, "I'm not some girl. I have a name, Mollie Hacket." Being called a girl was a kind of contempt for her, and she hated it.

"Mollie Hacket!" Lucas repeated the woman's name through clenched teeth, and then said to the bodyguard next to him, "Bring her back with us." He was going to teach the ignorant girl a hard lesson.

"Stop. Stop. Don't touch her." Lydia ran over to the scene from the dance floor and hurried to embrace Mollie into her arms.

Lydia met Lucas before at some parties that she attended together with her father. He was rumored to own a quirky personality and a tendency to violence.

She wondered how Mollie could beat the man up while she was away for just several minutes.

Although she was frightened and her heart thumped, she still maintained a composed surface. Even though the man she faced was Lucas, she would not let him hurt Mollie.

With his eyes slightly narrowed, Lucas asked in a light voice, "Are you from the Young Family?" He was not familiar with beauties in town. Still, he was somewhat impressed by people from the four supreme families in City Empire.

"Yes, I am." At this moment, Lydia felt grateful for her identity as she knew the four families secretly competed for fame and fortune with each other though, they at least tried to maintain a relatively peaceful relationship on the surface. Presumably, after learning that she was a member of the Young Family, Lucas would not make things difficult for them.
