Chapter 495 The restaurant owner hurriedly retreated into the kitchen, too scared to intervene further. Meanwhile, the other diners cast sympathetic glances at Andrew, their hushed murmurs echoing their shared sentiment of pity

One diner whispered, Just finish your meal quickly, and lets get out of here.

Hugh always throws his weight around because of his ties to the Madblade Martial Academy.

The poor guy over there is doomed looks like hes too soft to handle a thug like Hugh.

Another diner chimed in, The guys unlucky, but did you see his girlfriend? Shes stunning, like a goddess

Hughs got a reputation for being a sleaze.

Hell definitely try to mess with her

That handsome guy was too rushed

When he met a mad dog like Hugh, he shouldve held back for a while, and the situation wouldve passed

Although our society is a society ruled by law, power is still absolute were no one to fight against that.

All the diners pitied Andrew, thinking he was unlucky.noveldrama

However, a few also thought Andrew was careless.

After all, it was obvious that Hugh was not easy to deal with Andrew should have just dined quietly and left after.

Lauren put down her phone and frowned.

Dr.

Lloyd, is this guy trying to stårt trouble? Dont worry about it.

Ill handle this, Andrew replied calmly.

12 Hugh noticed Lauren and grinned unpleasantly, Well, well, pretty boy, I didnt expect you to have such a beautiful companion.

Heres the deal apologize, and maybe III let you off easy.

Fiona, glaring at Lauren with seething jealousy, snickered.

Hughs offering you the chance of a lifetime! You better agree before he changes his mind.

Lauren took a sip of her drink, utterly unfazed, and said casually, Not everyones like you, willing to settle for trash and swallow crap.

She gestured at Hugh and added with a smirk, Take a good look at your pig of a man, and then look at my handsome man

Honestly, do you even think youre in the same league ? Laurens sharp words cut deep, and despite her polished demeanor, she delivered them with lethal precision

Fionas face turned bright red with anger as she screeched, Hugh, this bitch just called me trash and said youre crap! Are you going to let her get away with that? Teach her a lesson and sell her to some overseas dump! Hugh shot Fiona an annoyed look.

Shut up! I wouldnt dare ruin that pretty little face.

However, he grinned wickedly and said, But youre right she does need to be put in her place.

After Ive had my fun, maybe III consider selling her.

Shed fetch a good price overseas

Andrew arched a brow, his tone calm yet sharp.

You said Rodney Sanford from the Madblade 1/2 Martial Academy is your cousin? Hughs chest puffed with pride as he replied, So youve heard of Rodney, huh? Yeah, hes the big man at Madblade, and Im Hugh Williamson, the one and only Nasty Hugh.

Surely youve heard of me too

With a smug gesture, Hugh tapped the tiger tattoo on his chest, as if it validated his claims.

Andrew looked at him, feigning surprise, and said, Nasty Hugh? Nope.

Never heard of the name.

Hughs face turned red as he barked, Bullshit! Andrew nodded thoughtfully.

Whatever.

Lets just get down to business

Hughs jaw tightened, and his eyes narrowed

You clueless fool, do you even realize how deep in trouble you are? Ill give you one minute to ask around and learn about my name.

Youll see soon enough that this isnt a joke.

Andrew shrugged, his expression unbothered

Why would I waste my time asking about some random idiot? Im not that bored.
