Chapter 276 Shut Up

zoomed past her.Genevieve stumbled a few steps before regaining her balance.The woman who ran past her was tiny but extremely nimble. In the blink of an eye, she had made her way to the club’s exit. The woman charged toward the door, looking as though she wanted to leave that place as fast as possible.To her dismay, two burly bouncers were standing outside the door. One of the men managed to grab her thin arms and yanked at her forcefully, halting her in her tracks.The bouncers lifted the woman into mid-air and brought her back into the club. Kicking her legs around, the woman screamed hysterically, “I’m not the one who wrote the IOU! What right do you have to hold me captive?”Seeing that customers were walking along the corridor, one of the bouncers was afraid that the woman’s screams would attract unwanted attraction and slapped the woman hard on her cheek.“Shut up! Or else!” he warned.The slap was so hard that it tilted the woman’s head, causing her to fall silent. Perhaps it was because her cheeks were too painful for her to speak.As the two men carried the woman past Genevieve, they nodded courteously at her before continuing on their way. With a lowered gaze, Genevieve tossed the woman a glance.

At the sound of her name, Johanna raised her head and looked around in a blur.At the sight of Genevieve, Johanna immediately snapped out of her daze and started struggling to get out of the bouncers’ grip once again. “Genev! Please call the police! The people in this club are holding me captive, and they’re even asking me to be an escort!” Tears rolled down Johanna’s cheek as she cried for help.Genevieve peered at the men coolly. “Let go of her.”“Please do not interfere, miss.” One of the men talked to Genevieve with a stony expression. “She’s one of our escorts here, and we have the right to punish her for her wrongdoings.”“What if I want to interfere?” Genevieve lifted her chin and gestured with her fingers.Understanding what she meant, Steven stepped forward. Within a few seconds, Steven had the two men on the ground, freeing Johanna.They were in the main room of the club. There were surveillance cameras everywhere, as well as
