Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 17

Chapter 17

Adrenaline coursed through Sheldon’s veins as he

stared after Emmanuel’s retreating figure.

Removing troublemakers from the project falls under

my jurisdiction as a legal specialist in Cloud

Construction. How could I simply stand aside when

Emmanuel is ready to risk his life to solve the issue?

1/16

Emmanuel’s bravery inspired Sheldon to follow suit.

The latter ran after Emmanuel while vowing through

gritted teeth, “D*mn it! I’m going to give it my all even if

I lose my life!”

When Emmanuel turned around and noticed the other

man’s approach, he could not help but smile.

Emmanuel had faced life–and–death situations with

plenty of peers while serving on the front lines. Since

his return to Yeringham, Frederick had been the only

person who willingly fought alongside him. He was

pleasantly surprised to find another ally in Sheldon.

He booked a private room to prevent security from

booting them.

Now that Sheldon had decided to stay, he decided to

hire several hostesses for entertainment and asked if

Emmanuel wanted to join him.

“Go ahead. I’m heading out for a walk!”

Emmanuel rarely showed any interest in women and

left the room. He walked along the corridor in search of

Elena.

His efforts paid off. He came across Elena just as she

finished touching up her makeup. She appeared to be

meeting Samuel.

Sheldon had followed Emmanuel out of their private

room. When he noticed that the latter was trailing

Elena all the way to Samuel’s room, he quickly pulled

Emmanuel back in panic.

He whispered, “Think carefully! This is your last chance!

Didn’t you see the crowd inside?”

Emmanuel appeared unfazed.

Assuming he was clueless about Samuel’s might,

Sheldon added, “Mr. Webber is utterly merciless. He has

several people’s blood on his hands! And he has a

bunch of lackeys who are crazy–good fighters! Each

one is fiercer than the next! He’ll definitely kill you if you

barge in and demand his retreat from the project

grounds!”

Sheldon thought his advice would intimidate

Emmanuel into rethinking his approach.

To his horror, Emmanuel replied expressionlessly, “The

project will surely be delayed if we don’t get rid of Mr.

Webber and his men today! No one can stop me from

my goal today!”
