Chapter 34 Fate is really unpredictable?
The fat man had a ferocious expression on his face as he came inside the room, accompanied by a total of seven big men in black suits.
The atmosphere in the room began to turn hostile. May, seeing him, was scared. Her legs were shaking constantly, and she hid behind Zya.
The others also stood up and came towards Zya and May to face these unreasonable people who seems to come to looked for trouble.
The fat man seeing her his gaze was menacing as an infuriated buddha since his bald, with smile adorned his face, "You bitch you think you can escape? I just only want you to accompany me, but you have the nerve to slap me. I will show you what true slapping really is" his face was lewd, and his cold gaze is really scary to see.
Zya was protecting May behind her, who was shaking. She asked May about what happened.
May then recounted the events when she went out to go to the bathroom.
"After I finished peeing and washed my hands, I was about to walk back when that fat guy stopped me and wanted me to accompany him to drink. Of course, I disagreed, but he held my hand, making hurting so I'd struggle to escape his clutches. So, I had no choice but to slap him in the face.
But he retaliated and slapped me, so I picked up the vase in display that was nearest to me and smashed it into his face so I could escape. Zya, please help me," she said, her voice trembling with a tear in her eyes.
Zya, hearing this, narrowed her eyes in anger clearly enraged about the people who hurt May. Her gaze lingered on them, full of coldness. Even though her best friend had a bad attitude, they had been friends for three years now.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The others, hearing this, couldn't help but frown. They didn't know such things actually happened. The fat man, hearing this, didn't care about their cold glares towards him.
"Hey, you ugly fat man, how dare you bully our friend? Are you not afraid of the law?" Bard said coldly, he was fuming and it was livid on his face.
The fat man just laughed, and even his big belly shook from his laughter. "Law? What law are you talking about? If you curse at me again, believe it or not, I will cripple you with my men over here," the fat man said menacingly, with a sly smile on his face.
Bard, who was full of confidence just now, was now a little scared. He could only swallow what he was about to say again and stay silent. Just by seeing the big men beside the fat man, who wouldn't be afraid?
All of them were in a dilemma right now, afraid of getting beat up. But suddenly, Michael, who was behind them, looked at his classmates with a smile.
Seeing his confident attitude, May and the rest were no longer scared and waited for him to fix the problem. He went forward and faced the fat man with no fear on his face.
"Hello, sir, there seems to be a misunderstanding. My friends are at fault first, but can we let this problem bygones be bygones? To not make matters worse," he stated to them.
The fat man looked at him as if seeing an idiot. "Kid, who do you think you are to talk to me face to face? Do you want to get a beating? If I smash your face with a vase and let the problem aside, aren't you also going to lose face" he said coldly, lacing his words with threat.
Michael frowned, wondering if this fat man didn't know him, so he introduced himself.
"Listen here, sir, My name is Michael Barocayo. I think you've already heard my name, right? So, can we just let this matter slide?" Michael said, full of pride, waiting for the fat man to retreat.
The fat man snorted and looked at the fool who was acting like a clown in front of him. "Barocayo? What kind of family name is that? It sounds like a fucking broccoli. You'd better not involve yourself here, or I will smash that bottle of wine in your face. Making you hospitalized for a month," the fat man said, full of contempt, wondering where this kid got his courage from.
Seeing that there was no effect, Zya, May, and the others were finally sensing a bit of dread. Michael was displeased, wondering if this fat man hadn't heard of his name, so he spoke yet again.
"I believe you've heard of my father. His name is Laxon Barocayo. He's a businessman and very influential. I believe you've heard his name," Michael said with pride, mentioning his father.
Hearing the name, the fat man sensed a little trouble, but he was just a low-class businessman in their circle of people, not a person to be wary about.
Seeing his face, Michael knew that he must have heard of his father, since his father had a lot of connections and was also influential.
The fat man just smiled and pursed his lips, "Do you even know who I am alright then I'll tell you, I'm Bald Fury one of the four captains of the 'Black Serpent Gangs'. Tell me should I still be afraid?" He said looking at Michael eyes.
The others, hearing this were terrified. How could they not know him? He was a ferocious and cruel person. There were a lot of rumors about his criminal record, like rape, killing, and drugs.
But he was still roaming around the city like nothing ever happened. Even Michael was in a dilemma right now, since the problem was much harder than he thought.
Alexander hearing this, couldn't help but pursed his lips in amusement, "Fate is really unpredictable," he said inwardly as he inspected the fat man.
The fat man just smiled expecting their reaction then compromised with Michael, "Since I know your father, I will let you all leave," he said with a smile.
The others, hearing this were happy while sighing in relief. Finally, the danger was gone. Their idolization towards Michael increased drastically.
"But, the two of them will stay," the fat man said, pointing at Zya and May.
His gaze towards Zya was full of lust. He had already been eyeing her for a while now. Wondering how it would feel to pin this kind of teenage lady down.
The fat man couldn't help but drool, imagining that scenario. The others hearing this were stunned, and Michael couldn't help but frown once again.
"Sir, they are my friends. I can't just leave them behind," Michael said, wanting to compromise again.
This time the fat man was outraged he shouted, "If it weren't for your father, I would have crippled all of you in this place right now. I'm giving you a chance. Leave and the problem will be gone or stay and get beat up. You choose," as he looked at him with a stern expression adorned on his face.
Zya and May's faces were solemn, afraid that they are really going to be left alone. After standing and contemplating for a while, Michael made up his choice. He looked at Zya and May resignedly.
"Sorry, Zya, I can't handle this problem anymore," he said, as he left the place bitterly.
The others were also afraid of the trouble, so they left the place following Michael's back.
While they were walking to the exit of the door, Zya's face was cold with a distant look.
"Michael, you coward! Leaving a woman behind. Aren't you afraid of retribution?" she shouted at him.
Michael didn't look behind and finally exited the place with the rest of his friends. Leaving only Zya and May in the room, but suddenly someone caught their eye on the sofa.
A guy was sitting, looking at them with an emotionless expression. The fat man wondered where this kid came from.
"Hey, kid, since you've stayed, I will not let my word down or I'll be called a person who does not keep his promise. I'm going to let my men beat you into a pulp until you're hospitalized," he said to Alexander with a smile on his face.
Hearing his words, May and Zya looked behind and they saw Alexander, who then stood up in his seat and stood in front of them, blocking them from the danger.
Zya's face was solemn and worried, seeing Alexander didn't leave. She was afraid that he might get involved, but actually, he was already involved in the trouble since the fat man had already ordered someone to teach him a lesson.
"Don't worry, Zya. As long as I'm here, there's not an ounce of your hair that will be touched," he said seriously.
Zya, after hearing his words, couldn't help but sense a bit of security, but she was still worried.
The fat man, seeing how brave he was, couldn't help but laugh, thinking if he was stupid or simply ignorant.
"Kid, if you want to do the plot of saving the beauty, I'll let one of my men wake you from your dreams," the fat man said as the man in the black suit went forward.
He cracked his knuckles, and his expression was grinning from ear to ear. With a look of pity and sarcasm on it.
When he was close, he threw a direct punch with full force, wanting to knock out Alexander in one blow.
Zya and May, seeing this, their faces were pale as white, and Zya couldn't help but close her eyes.
Alexander just arched a smile, and before the fist came, Alexander just made a casual kick with no special effect.
When it hit the man in the stomach, he flew back like a broken kite, hitting the door with his back. But because of the force, the door was broken, and he and the door behind him flew until there was a wall stopping his progress.
He fell down with his face on the floor without any sign of consciousness. The fat man and his other men, seeing this, were bewildered, and now their faces were full of fear. The fat man even sensed a feeling of dread from the young man's attack.
Zya and May were surprised by Alexander's power. With just one casual kick, he flew off like a cannonball without any sign of stopping.
Zya's brows fluttered as she gazed at Alexander, filled with curiosity.
"Is Alexander one of those people?" she said inwardly, looking at Alexander's figure.
"Do you still want to continue? If you want to, I can entertain you for as long as you want to play," he said with a playful smile as he looked at the fat man.
