In Love, Never Say Never Chapter 1664

“Well, I dare you! I’ll smash your head before you can call the police!” Lucas pressed his face against

the manager’s. The manager was so scared that he shut his eyes tight.

Despite the stressful atmosphere, I was reminded of the scene in Tom and Jerry where Spike, the

bulldog, bullied Tom, the cat. It was hilarious. I guessed I had spent too much time with the children.

While my mind was elsewhere, Lucas slapped the manager in the face.

The sound shook me and pulled me back to reality. Only then did I realize that something was wrong. I

quickly got up and stopped Lucas. “Lucas, that’s enough!” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Stay out of this, Stovall. This is a private matter!”

After brushing me off, Lucas turned to finish off the manager. His men were fighting with the security

guards too.

Noticing that the attention of the entire restaurant was on us, I blurted out, “Are you planning to bring

the cops here, Lucas? We are in the city center right now. There are patrols everywhere. They can get

here within ten minutes! You’d better consider your next step carefully!”

Lucas froze after hearing my advice. He smacked his lips unhappily and threw the manager on the

floor.

“You!” He raised his middle finger and index finger and pointed at his own eyes, then at the manager.

“Your face is engraved in my mind now!”

He then grabbed one of the underlings, who was on top of a guard, and shouted, “Are you all waiting

for the police to arrest you? We’re leaving now!”

With that, the group of men left the restaurant together.

The customers started gossiping after all of their figures disappeared at the entrance. “Where do those

people come from? They are so rude.”

The guards helped the manager to his feet, and blood was spotted in the corner of his mouth. He

appeared lifeless. After all, not everyone could take Lucas’ slap with ease.

Since we were at the heart of the incident, I couldn’t sit back and do nothing. I took out all the cash I

had from my purse and handed them to the manager. “Take these and lie low for a while. Don’t come

back to K City for the time being.”

The manager pushed my hand away, as he had no clue how terrifying Lucas could be. “You don’t have

to give us the cash, Madam. It’s our responsibility, after all.”

I simply spread the manager’s palm and stuffed the cash into his hand. “Listen to my advice if you want

to live.”

“I…” The manager took a glance at me and turned to Alexander. When he saw Alexander nod, he

accepted the cash. “Well, thank you, then.”

“Don’t mention it. You need to go to the hospital to check on your injuries. The impact was on the head,

so it could be serious.”

“I understand. I’ll get going now.”

The manager gave the guards, who were helping him, a look and stumbled out of the dining area. As

soon as he entered the kitchen, his figure disappeared.

The moment those men left, Alexander’s attitude changed entirely. He started behaving like a puppy,

sniffing for any injury on Emery. “Are you okay?”

While asking, he reached out to grab Emery’s hand, but she avoided it.

“Please watch yourself, Mr. Groom.”

Emery emphasized the word “groom.” It seemed that she was not completely indifferent to Alexander

as she noticed the flower pinned on his chest pocket.

Hearing that, Alexander subconsciously took a glance at the flower and ripped it off from his pocket.

“Oh, you mean this? It’s part of my outfit for the movie I’m shooting. It’s a wedding scene today. I

spotted you guys right after I finished shooting the scene.”

Alexander then paused for a moment and turned to face Emery. “I’ve been texting you. Why didn’t you

reply to me?” A hint of nervousness could be heard in his voice.

“What should I reply?” Emery shot back without looking at him.

“Anything.” Alexander’s eyes were ablaze with sincerity. “Those messages were just about my daily life.

You can tell me those things too. I want to know what you are doing.”

“Well, now that you have seen me, you can go now.” Emery’s voice was colder than before.

Awkwardness slowly filled the air. Alexander, however, seemed to have gotten used to Emery’s cold

attitude. He smiled at her and asked, “Are you angry at me because I’ve been too busy to look for you?

Shall we go for a holiday overseas after the shooting ends?”
