Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1482
Seeing that Joey was about to leave, Bennett's eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness. He gritted his teeth, and waved his hand to call the security guards to stop both Fade and Joey. Her face instantly fell. She asked coldly, "What is the meaning of this? Are you trying to force me?"
Bennett took a step forward and replied indifferently, "I'm a civilized person, so why would I commit a crime? I only stopped you, so that I can stand up for justice."
"Justice? What justice?" She frowned.
The corners of Bennett's lips curled up into a grin. He picked up a teacup from the table next to him and released the teacup. With a snap, the teacup fell to the floor and shattered into pieces. Then, he squinted at Joey and said, "You accidentally broke my teacup. You should compensate me before leaving!"
"This teacup is also not something rare. It's just an antique from the Qing dynasty's Imperial Palace. It's not worth a lot. It's only worth six million yuan. Tell me, how do you want to compensate for it?" Bennett stared at Joey proudly.
When she heard his words, her expression grew grim as she glared at him. "Are you trying to blackmail me?"
"Huh? What are you talking about? You are the one who broke my antique teacup. Everyone has seen it. How is that blackmail?" Bennett spread out his hands and looked at the surrounding people. He then narrowed his eyes at Joey.
Pollard and everyone else understood Bennett's meaning, thus they spoke out one after another.
"You are supposed to pay for something after you have broken it! Young lady, do you want to go back on your word?"
"This is one of the antiques that Bennett kept. It's one of a kind. 5 million yuan is already not considered much."
"You should pay for it quickly, otherwise, Bennett can call the police on you."
Bennett stared at Joey arrogantly, stroked his chin and asked, "What do you think? Are you willing to pay now? Of course, if you don't have money, you can compensate me in other ways."
After that, he looked at her up and down, a sinister grin playing on his lips. His saliva was about to drool out. Obviously, he was thinking about something obscene.
Upon seeing this, her gaze turned cold, revealing a look of disgust.
Fade then stepped forward to Bennet.
"What are you trying to do?" Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from him, Bennett was a little alarmed.
Without any hesitation, Fade swung his hand, and slapped Bennett's face. The tremendous force immediately knocked him over. He was thrown into the air, and he finally fell heavily on the ground with a painful grunt.
Then, Fade took Joey and walked towards the door.
The security guard before them saw how skillful Fade was, and did not dare to stop him. He quickly made way for the both of them to leave.
Bennett, who had been supported up by Pollard and the others, stared after them with resentment in his eyes. There was a trail of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and his cheeks were swollen. He gritted his teeth. "How dare you hit me. I, Bennett Xu, will never let you go."
Meanwhile, Fade and Joey had already gotten into the car, and drove towards the hotel where Moore was waiting.
Soon, they arrived at the hotel. Fade brought Joey to Moore.
"Joey, are you ready?" He turned to look at her.
She took a deep breath to calm down. Then, she nodded to him and answered, "Yes, I'm ready."
"
"Okay, then I'll knock on the door." Fade nodded, and then knocked on the door. "Master Chen, I'm back. Joey is also here." Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps from within the room. The pair of footsteps quickly rushed to the door and the door opened. Dressed in a suit and tie, Moore appeared in front of Fade and Joey in a flash.
At this moment, Joey and Moore's gazes met, and they fell speechless for a moment.
When he saw this, Fade swung the door open and took Joey into the room. "Master Chen, let's sit down and have a chat!"
Moore finally came to his senses. He quickly nodded, and took the initiative to move the chair for Joey.
After the three of them were seated, the room fell into complete silence. It was as if no one knew how to break the silence.
Seeing this, Fade took the initiative to introduce, "Joey, this is Moore, Master Chen, whom I've mentioned to you before. He is the legendary figure who won the championship at the Martial Arts Convention more than 20 years ago."
Then, Fade introduced Joey to Moore. "Master Chen, this is Joey. She is my junior apprentice, and also a student studying in Capital University. She is majoring in archaeology."
After the introduction, he stood up and said, "I have something to attend to. You can talk to each first!"
He patted Joey's shoulder and gave her an encouraging look. Then, he left the room and let the pair of father and daughter have a talk alone.
After leaving the corridor, he did not return to his room, but went to the outdoor restaurant in the hotel. He ordered a glass of whiskey, and slowly sipped it. Meanwhile, he thought about what had happened recently, and couldn't help thinking about the hidden Lin family and his wife, Quin.
Just as Fade was deep in his thoughts, a crisp voice startled Fade and brought him out of his thoughts. "Brother Chen, is that you?"
Fade turned around, and saw a cute girl in her late teens. Her cheeks were flushed as she looked at him. Her eyes were wide and bright, and excitement was written all over her face.
It was Clara Moo, of the Moo family, whom Fade had saved during the exploration of the Dragon Mausoleum.
Concurrently, Clara stared at him with surprise and excitement in her heart. Just a day ago, at the Dragon Mausoleum, she was hesitating to say farewell to him. She had thought that she would never be able to meet him again.
How would she have known she would meet him again the next day. All of a sudden, the hesitation that lingered in her heart for the past two days suddenly disappeared. Instead, she was filled with excitement. Such an unexpected encounter made Clara suddenly believe in fate. It seemed that this wasn't just a coincidence; God had arranged for the two of them to come across each other again. The only word to describe this was fate.
At the thought of this and the anxiety that had been building up in her heart for the past two days, Clara's cheeks flushed red, and a touch of shyness flashed across her face. She bit her lips gently, looking shy and lovely.
