    “You’re indeed Mnie’s best friend!”


    Mike gave Katie an appreciative look and then threw five thousand dors at her.


    Aftern’s death, Luke took most of the money, leaving only ten million for Mike.


    It wasn’t muchpared ton’s billions, but he was satisfied.


    Mike felt it was at least better than the three thousand dors monthly allowancen gave him.


    Katie pocketed the ten thousand dors and was about to leave.


    Mnie, feeling woozy, grabbed Katie’s wrist.


    “Kat… please… take me with you…”


    Katie shook off Mnie’s hand and said, “Mike truly cares about you. If you stay with him, you’ll live in luxury and won’t have to wash dishes or do part–time jobs just for some spare change.”


    Hearing Katie’s cold and heartless tone, Mnie’s eyes filled with tears.


    After Katie left, Mike waved his hand, and his men, who upied three tables, cleared out of the room.


    Momentster, screams and sounds of dishes and ss shattering came from the room.


    At the same time, Sean and Owen arrived with over 30 people.


    Carlisle and Francis didn’t tag along. They stayed back in the private room, ordering food.


    In the hallway, Mike’s subordinates recognized Sean <b>and </b>Owen.


    Sean and Owern had been beaten <b>ck </b>and blue before.


    At the sight of them with so many people, they were clearly here to cause trouble.


    Arthur asked, “Sean, do we go straight in, or.?”


    Looking at the familiar faces in the hallway and hearing Mnie screaming from the private room, Sean said, “Screw it. That bastard’s hurting a girl. We’re going in now.”


    Arthur had been a brawler since high school and had even undergone special training. He tore off his


    shirt, revealing a formidable set of muscles, and charged in.


    In the private room, Carlisle could already hear the sounds of the fight outside.


    Francis chuckled.


    “I wonder if they can handle it. Maybe I should go help.”


    Carlisle shook his head.


    “That musclehead can take on five guys by himself.”


    A glint appeared in Francis‘ eyes.


    “You sure have a knack for finding the right people!”


    He recognized Arthur’s incredible strength. In a life–or–death match, Francis might be able to kill him, but in a brawl with restraint, even he might not stand a chance.


    The manager of A1 Seafood Restaurant entered the private room, trembling


    “Mr. Zahn, the surveince cameras are off.”


    He had just received a call from Heath, insisting that the current incident be swept under the rug or A1 Seafood Restaurant would be out of business. He ryed this to the boss, who told him to handle it.


    Carlisle smiled and gestured for the manager to sit.


    “Rx. I’ll cover the cost of any damages.”


    The manager sighed.


    “Even thoughn is dead, Luke is still around. He’s even more ruthless thann.”


    Carlisle suddenly looked up at the manager, who flinched.


    Did


    “Did I say something wrong?”


    “No, you actually reminded me of something.”


    Carlisle pulled out his phone and called Heath, intending to have him cause Luke trouble.


    As soon as Heath answered, Carlisle said, “Create some trouble for Luke.”


    Heathughed.


    “I’m already at their doorstep.”


    The sounds of fighting erupted over the phone.


    Carlisle’s tone grew serious as he asked, “Are you nning to take them all out in one go<b>?</b>”


    Heath replied, “Yeah, in one swift move.”


    Carlisle warned, “You risk mutual destruction. Watch out for Albert.“.


    The noise on the other end was overwhelming, and Carlisle hung up after a few more words.


    Back in Mike’s private room, Mike had several deep scratches on his face. Mnie’s clothes were torn, exposing a lot of her pale skin.
