Chapter 123

There was no way Frankie would fight back. He would only suffer an even worse fate. Unlike Elaine, Frankie was

experienced. He must've picked up on my status and power. His ability to recognize power in the face of it would

take him far.

"Let's go."

| left the man to finish up with them and left with my arm wrapped around Felicia.

A Rolls Royce was parked in front of the restaurant, and a dozen Bentleys filled with guards were parked behind.

A bodyguard was standing in front of the car. His stoic expression couldn't conceal his fierce glare.

All the bystanders had been cleared from the scene. | helped Felicia into the car and ordered the chauffeur, "To

Imperia Manor."

"Yes, sir."

Felicia did not say a single word for the entire journey. She surveyed the car's interior before staring out of the

window listlessly.

| was afraid that she'd been scared by Elaine, so | consoled her, "Don't worry. | won't do anything to Elaine. She

offended the Crimson Tigers. There will be people going after her even without my interference."

Elaine wouldn't appear in Welsington ever again, let alone in school.

Felicia shook her head gently. After a while, she turned around and said, "I-I'm not worried about Elaine. I... just

regret not trusting you earlier."

| froze. So this was what she had been worrying about in her trance just now.

| leaned back and sighed. "Yeah. Out of everyone, you should have been the last

to doubt me. You have no idea how devastated | was last night."

"It wasn't on purpose. I'm sorry. | hadn't expected you to be so wealthy."

Her eyes were trained on the ground, looking utterly despondent.

However, | laughed soon after and pulled her into my arms. | consoled her, "It's alright. The past is in the past.

All that matters is that you believefrom today onward."

Although she doubted me, she had been willing to pick up a part-tjob while studying. She even agreed to

shoulder debt that was valued at one million for my sake.

This was enough to blowoff my feet. Countless people would want a piece ofwhen the going was good.

However, it was rare for anyone to be willing to stick bywhen things got tough.

| patted her head and said, "Today, | have no more secrets from you. If you continue to doubt my identity even

after this, I'll actually be disappointed.”

"No!" Felicia immediately looked up atand said nervously, "I'll never doubt you, | swear."

That was more like it. We smiled at each other and buried our hatchets.

Felicia immediately continued nervously, "We're going to Imperia Manor? What are we going to do there?"

I pinched her chin and scanned her swollen face. Then, | said, "We'll get a doctor to treat our wounds. Once

we've been checked out, we'll have dinner and rest. Don't worry. | won't do anything to you."

Although we had confirmed our relationship, | was a conservative man. We would take it step-by-step. | wouldn't

touch her unless it was the right time.

A flush broke out on her cheeks. She opened her mouth, but nothing cout.

When we arrived at Imperia Manor, | immediately had Sophia call the doctor. He cover and examined us.

As expected, the wound on my eyelid was still manageable. It would recover after a week if | applied medicinal

cream.

However, Felicia's wounds were much worse than they appeared to be. Not only was she bruised, but she'd also

torn the inside of her mouth. It would take at least two weeks to heal.

That night, | saw Sophia just as I left my room.

We hadn't met in a while, so | didn't know how she was doing. | approached her and asked, "How's that debt of

yours?"

Sophia blushed and replied, "I've reached an agreement with the bank and renegotiated the installment terms.

It's within my financial capabilities. It's all good now."
