His expression softened upon seeing me. He pushed away the woman tugging at him merciless.

He strode towards me and asked in a low voice, "How did you end up over here?"

"I met someone familiar!" I replied, not going into detail about my encounter with lan.

He raised his brows and held on to me, ready to leave.

But how could Rowane let him go like this? When she saw me, her eyes became icy cold. She was so drunk that there was little to no reasoning left in her. So she looked at me mockingly.

She looked at Hendrix and said, "Hendrix, look at us. Take a good look at us. Am I not as beautiful as her? Or do I not have a body figure as good as hers? I can give you whatever she can give you, even whatever she can't give you."

Just as she started getting worked up, she shamelessly ripped open the clothes in front of her chest, revealing a big portion of her pale skin. She grabbed Hendrix's hand and said, "Touch it! She lets you toy with her however you like, so can I! I can even do better than her."

This was a public setting, after all; her actions had undoubtedly garnered much attention.

Meanwhile, Hendrix's expression had completely turned dark. Without the slightest hint of hesitation, he flung his arms, causing Rowane to fall to the ground entirely.

Since she was wearing high heels, she couldn't stand firmly. She staggered a few steps and bumped into the edge of a table, causing an injury to her forehead.

Perhaps the pain had woken her up a little. She looked up at Hendrix, then later discovered that everyone around was looking at her. She subconsciously lowered her head and saw her exposed body. Instinctively, she reached out to cover herself with her clothes.

But she was drunk after all. Despite having a moment of sobriety, it was but a brief moment. She lowered her head and started chuckling.

Then, she lifted her gaze towards Hendrix and I. Her eyes were moist as she looked at Hendrix, attempting to speak. Even though she was smiling, the tears in her eyes still remained.

She pointed at me and said, "Arianna, what kind of methods did you use to seduce this man? Why is he so fixated on you?"

Then, she looked at Hendrix and said mockingly, "What's so good about her? Do you think she's clean after being so involved with Irvin? Look at all the suppressed news! She's so dirty, yet you still want her. Why? Do you men just accept any women?"

In the blink of an eye, before I could even react, Hendrix had already grabbed hold of Rowane's neck.

The suppressed anger on his face versus Rowane's bright red face due to suffocation was a stark contrast.

He pitch black eyes narrowed. In a cold voice, he said, "If you're seeking death, I'll lend you a hand."

As he spoke, he tightened his grip.

Gasps and discussion sounds could be heard from all around us. It took me some time to finally realise that Rowane had completely enraged Hendrix.

He was ready to kill.

Seeing that the people around us were taking out their phones to snap pictures, I immediately ran towards Hendrix to unclench his grip, saying, "Hendrix, don't act rashly. Let's go home."

If news about this spread, Hendrix would probably be verbally sabotaged.

No matter how outstanding a man could be, as long as there was news of him hitting a woman and that he had violent tendencies, the internet would never bother investigating the incident and directly ruled him guilty.

It was only for a brief moment, and Hendrix was still Hendrix after all. Having managed the Roberts Group for so many years, he was already familiar with the schemes of the business world. Rowane Zanes alone wasn't enough for him to completely lose himself.
