Chapter 76 His True Nature
"F*ck! Who the f*ck are you, b*tch? How dare you kick me?!â The kick toppled Luca as he cried out
in pain, while bewildered cries could be heard among the crowd as they looked at Kate and Camila.
"Who are you? Why did you hit him?â âShe made the first move!â
âWhat an arrogant woman!â Unwilling to repeat the vile words Luca spouted, Kate explained the
situation in simple terms as she glared at Luca, âI was trying to invite him to work on a photoshoot
for our magazine, but he got all handsy, so I hit him out of anger.â Despite showing their sympathy
toward Kate, everybody kept their silence while refraining from speaking ill of Luca due to his
connections with investors and Metrostar Entertainment. Luca wasn't about to admit his
wrongdoings while he rambled on, âStop spouting nonsense! I did not get all handsy! You were the
one who kept pestering me and making empty promises! I refrained from accusing you of seducing
me, so how dare you bite back at me like that?â âYou're the one who is spouting nonsense! I did not
seduce you!â Kate was getting riled up. In the meantime, a sneer crept onto Camilaâs face while she
observed Luca. âYou're ignorant for doing as you please without a care for your companyâs image,
and you're a man without virtue for being arrogant and swearing in public! The fact that you bit
back at my friend shows how unfair you are, while hitting a woman in public is proof of your
shamelessness! How dare a lowly being like you create a ruckus here?â âJust you wait, you
obnoxious twat!â After he had a handful of insults thrown to his face, Luca left for a phone call after
cursing at them, but Camila didnât seem to care as she led Kate to get some ice from a waiter before
asking, âWhat happened back then?â âHe's among the lowliest dregs of society. I was blind to have
thought that he might be a nice guy by judging him using the image of the loyal man he portrayed
on TV. Instead, he started off by asking me to introduce you to him because he fancied you, then he
began touching my body while saying that he would consider my offer if the both of us are to sleep
with him for the night. Isn't he such an arrogant prick? So I gave him a slap out of fury, but I
immediately regretted my actions.â
âYou don't have to feel regret about it. I would even encourage you to slap him harder.â A look of
contempt crept onto Camilaâs face. âNow the cover for my next issue is gone!â Kate couldn't help
but feel dejected about
âScum like him is not fit for your cover anyway. Come, put some ice on your face as
it's all swollen. That b*stard sure hit you hard.â
âYou ain't half bad. He couldn't stand for a while, so your kick must've hurt.â
âServes him right!â âBut you shouldn't have resorted to violence. It won't do if you get into trouble
over this since you just arrived here.â âLook at yourself! You shouldn't be worrying about me! You
should've asked me for help if you want to hit him, since you have such a small build.â The ice pack
was pressed onto Kate's face as Camila spoke. A commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall
garnered the attention of all guests as one of them squealed, âIt's Silas Nolan!" âWow, he is so
handsome! Good gracious!â âIt must be his aura! Just look at how the people around him bend to
his willlâ âWe can only look up at him!â The voices of a few women garnered Camilaâs attention, and
she gazed toward where the commotion was happening. Their position on the inner part of the hall
determined that they could see what was going on outside clearly without exposing themselves. It
was indeed Silas who graced them with his presence in a dark colored suit. The look he wore was
one of aloofness as he scanned his surroundings with a sharp gaze, which contributed to the air of a
leader that he was born with. Following behind him meekly was Xavier and the rest who was aiming
to flatter him. Silas was the embodiment of power and prestige in Summer City, and his presence
dominated everywhere he arrived at, which included the banquet hall.
