Shania was bound to the idea where both of them were penniless and came from low social status. Her overbearing arrogance perked her chin towards the sky, acting all supercilious.
Helen only rolled her eyes.
Is she looking at Fabian with her nostrils!
Smack!
This blow landed on Shania’s face.
Serve her bl*ody right! You’re the man, Fabian!
Who knew Fabian would dare to slap Shania. Also, it was heavier than the previous one. Helen soothed her cheek with her hand as if she too felt the stinging slap.
Shania was thrown onto the floor, and the slap left a crimson mark on her face. She held her face and hysterically bellowed, “Argh! How dare you! Howard, he hit me! Hit him back!”
Seconds after the shout, she pulled out a phone and made a call.
Howard dashed forward and hurled a punch at Fabian.
Helen’s pores tightened in fear. She knew Howard perfectly well. He was on the basketball team, and that was the exact reason she got together with him. A punch from him would knock Fabian out!
Argh! If I’m gonna die, so be it! Fabian slapped them to defend me, anyway!
Helen planned to take a punch for Fabian. It wasn’t that she doubted his capabilities, but no one would believe that a company’s president would be on par with a basketball player with washboard abs.
Right when she slotted herself in front of Fabian, a hand pushed her to the side. Before she knew it, Fabian had struck Howard’s stomach with his foot.
Howard was driven a few steps back. He felt a fiery pain right where Fabian kicked him. He couldn’t believe that a guy shorter than him thrashed him. He darted his eyes at Helen who was thrown on the floor and put the blame on her.
She jumped in to block my view, and he kicked me when I got distracted. This b*itch! She has actually teamed up with him to quash me!
Howard had decided that whatever happened was smartly calculated by Fabian and Helen.
“You brat! You’re dead meat!” Howard roared and plunged towards Fabian.
Helen was on edge. That’s it. Fabian’s gonna be knocked out…
Contrary to what she’d thought, Fabian tackled Howard’s fist head-on with a punch without a tinge of fear.
Both of them stepped back at the same time. Fabian’s numbed knuckles made him frowned. He didn’t expect Howard to throw a punch that hard, but he remained composed, and his eyes followed Howard closely like a vulture eyeing its prey.
Howard had the eyes of a wild beast. He smacked his lips and raised his fist. “Today will be the day where I’ll knock all your teeth out.”
Fabian slithered his hands towards his belt and narrowed his eyes. “You are welcome to try.”
“Stop! Both of you!” A voice interrupted in the nick of time.
It was the chief security officer and some of his men.
“Who are you to tell me what to do?” Howard rebutted in an unwavering manner, believing that the security guards would be on his side since Shania was there.
“Just shut up and stop. Do you understand?” One of them instructed shrewishly. What the hell, what does he think security guards do?
“Don’t just stand there! Can’t you see that I’m being assaulted? Hit that bastard! Why are you stopping Howard?” Shania’s blood boiled as she commanded them.
“Oh, it’s you, Ms. Wandrie!” The chief security officer recognized Shania.
“Duh! Beat him up! Now!” Shania had lost all her patience.
The chief security officer got his men and did as told.
