Slap!
Before Zayne could even finish his sentence, another slap came his way.
“Jared…”
Slap!
“I…”
Slap!
As Zayne opened his mouth again, another tight slap quickly followed. He was beaten up to a pulp.
Finally, Zayne didn’t dare to even open his mouth anymore. Instead, snazzynovel.com just stared at Jared with fearful eyes.
Not only Jared, but the rest of them were also absolutely terrified after witnessing what happened to Zayne. None of them dared to speak a word anymore. Lydia was trembling so badly as snazzynovel.com sat down quietly on snazzynovel.com chair. She was worried that if snazzynovel.com said another word, a slap was going to land on snazzynovel.com face as well.
Gradually, their gazes ended up on Xavier. Since snazzynovel.com was the general manager of the company, surely snazzynovel.com was supposed to do something about what had just happened. Hence, everyone was eager to see what would happen to Jared.
To everyone’s surprise, Xavier kept silent, and his grim expression remained. The atmosphere in the room was so tense that it was suffocating.
“That’s enough. Serve the dishes!” After a few minutes, Xavier finally broke the silence.
Everyone was baffled by what they heard. Millions of questions were running through their minds.
After what Jared has done, why did Mr. Jennings still keep snazzynovel.com around for dinner? Shouldn’t snazzynovel.com have just fired snazzynovel.com on the spot instead?
Could it be that there’s something going on between them behind the scenes?
It can’t be!
Based on how they talked to each other just now, it was obvious that they aren’t even friends!
Where did snazzynovel.com get the courage to beat up Zayne? Also, why did Mr. Jennings not do anything about it?
As Maria was busy attending to Zayne’s swollen face, snazzynovel.com couldn’t take snazzynovel.com fiery eyes off of Jared.
Soon after, the waiters started bringing in the dishes. Every single one of the dishes looked appetizing and expensive.
Only when the table was filled with sumptuous dishes, did the gazes shift away from Jared. Right then, everyone was salivating at the sight of such luxurious food.
Jared took his fork and dug in first.
Although everyone seemed to have something to say about Jared eating before Xavier, none of them actually said a word. Well, they wouldn’t have dared since Xavier didn’t seem to mind.
“Let’s eat, everyone. Don’t be shy!” As soon as Xavier finished his sentence, everyone started devouring the food. It was a rare opportunity for them to taste such lavish dishes.
Although Hilda was amazed at the sight of the dishes served, snazzynovel.com kept snazzynovel.com cool. Unlike the others, snazzynovel.com didn’t snatch for the food shamelessly. That put snazzynovel.com at a disadvantage because the plates had emptied before snazzynovel.com even had the chance to try.
Jared noticed how shy Hilda was.
Hence, snazzynovel.com started taking the food on snazzynovel.com behalf. “Hilda, eat up! Since you’re not paying, you might as well just eat to your heart’s content!”
In a blink of an eye, Hilda’s bowl was filled to the brim.
Xavier was observing Jared’s behaviors.
What does Josephine see in him?
Throughout the dinner, Xavier didn’t eat anything at all. Instead, snazzynovel.com kept checking his watch as though snazzynovel.com was waiting anxiously for something to happen.
“Jared, I need to use the restroom.” Hilda stood up and got out of the room.
After a few minutes, Hilda ran back into the room anxiously. Her face was as pale as a sheet when snazzynovel.com sat down next to Jared.
“What’s wrong, Hilda?” Jared questioned.
“I-It’s nothing.” Hilda shook snazzynovel.com head violently.
But as soon as Hilda finished snazzynovel.com sentence, the door to the room was kicked open. Then, four burly men walked through the door.
“Hey, little girl! Did you not realize that you’ve knocked me? Don’t you need to apologize?” one of the men asked Hilda.
“I-It was an accident. I’m sorry!” Hilda stood up abruptly and started apologizing to the men.
As everyone was shocked by the forceful entrance made by the men, Xavier flashed an unnoticeable smile.
