Chapter 31
Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 31
âDonât be so quick to anger, Keegan,â cautioned
Roselynn hurriedly.
After all, given the status of the other party, Roselynn
was worried that her brother was going to suffer.
However, she truly disliked Keegan. Roselynn decided
to use Emmanuel as a shield and take advantage of
the situation. âThis is Emmanuel, a good friend of
mine.â
Even though Emmanuel and Roselynn shared a last
name, in Keeganâs mind, he had never even
considered Emmanuel to be one of Roselynnâs
relatives. Giving Emmanuel a condescending look,
Keegan said, âYour physique isnât enough to kill me, a
seasoned soldier, with one punch. Iâd advise you to
know your place!â
Keegan was a soldier. Since he was a child, he was
fond of bullying others by exerting force over them.
Now that Roselynn was around, Keegan was going to
go all out in showing off because he liked her. He
assumed that Roselynn would fancy a domineering
person like him who could give her a sense of security.
He then glanced at Emmanuelâs physique. How good
could he possibly be? To top it off, Emmanuel is not
someone of renown. I bet that a threat or two will send
him scampering off with his tail between his legs.
âWell, soldiers are really awesome and deserve
respect!â said Emmanuel, nodding.
As a soldier himself, Emmanuel also respected his
fellow soldiers. However, he had little respect for the
one before him.
âHmph. I guess youâre smart!â
Keegan did not comprehend the meaning behind
Emmanuelâs words, assuming that Emmanuel had
already been subdued. Even his very breath now
seemed proud and disdainful.
After that, he took Roselynnâs fair hand and said, âRosie,
there are many unruly people about. Why donât we go
somewhere quieter for a proper chat?â
Keegan felt sorry, having not been able to pursue this
deity then. Since he encountered Roselynn again
tonight, he was determined to kiss her, no matter what.
Roselynnâs gaze wavered. Subconsciously, she coldly
wrestled her hand free from his grasp and asked,
âKeegan Doyle, what do you think youâre doing?â
She was Roselynn Lowe, not some shameless hussy.
However, Keegan was used to being domineering and
had never allowed anyone to go against his will. Even if
Roselynn was his deity, he was going to pursue her
with greater force.
Emmanuel stood in front of his sister and grabbed
Keeganâs wrist with one hand. With a cold gaze, he
said, âYouâre behaving so brazenly in public? Youâre so
crass!â
âYou little piece of sh*t! Youâre courting death!â
Keegan was so incensed that the only thing he
retaliated with was a punch to Emmanuelâs face.
After all, Keeganâs punches were strong and powerful.
Even Chase, who was some distance away, was
subconsciously startled by this. However, he couldnât
help but gloat.
Milani was looking on expectantly.
I bet that rascal Emmanuel is in deep sh*t this time!
Who wouldnât want Keegan to beat the cr*p out of
him?
Unexpectedly, Emmanuel easily caught Keeganâs
powerful punch with just one hand.
He was completely unscathed.
Keeganâs heart sank. This little brat is quite powerful!
His fist, which few people in the army could stop, was
somehow easily caught by this kid.
Lexi, who had been observing Emmanuel from a
distance, was secretly taken aback. I think Ms. Quillenâs
husband is no ordinary man!
Upon knowing Emmanuelâs strength, Keeganâs
expression immediately turned sinister and
threatening. âYou little brat. How dare you oppose me?â
âMy apologies. You donât interest me in the slightest,â
retorted Emmanuel mildly.
He then flicked Keeganâs hand away casually.
This scene amazed Milani, Chase, and everyone else
watching.
Everyone thought that Emmanuel was quite arrogant,
for someone his size.
âDa*n it! You little brat! Do you dare look down on me?
Donât you know who the heck I am?â scoffed Keegan
disdainfully. He was so angry that he was breathless.
Keegan then noticed that Emmanuel still remained
impassive. He shook his head in anger.
