Chapter 542
The Woman From Hell
"I'm not joking with you." I sneered. "If you think 31,000 dollars isnât much, then I'll give you more
until you're willing to do it."
The level of consumption in Whaldorf City was high, s o even wages were much higher than in
other cities. Even so, this managerâs monthly salary would not exceed 47,000 dollars.
He needed to pay off his mortgage and car loan every month. If he had a wife and kids, then he
would have t o pay for their living expenses too. Hence, there would not be much money left every
month. 31,000 dollars was certainly no small amount for him.
"I didn't offend you, did I, Miss?" The manager looked sullen. "You were the one who started the
fight and I helped you to chase that guest away because you're with Mr. Schuman. You shouldn't be
giving me trouble now."
I started the fight?
I laughed. "Youâre the hall manager, right?â
He nodded.
I crossed my arms in front of my chest and looked indifferently at him.
"This is The Imperial Club, one of the most reputable clubs in Whaldorf City-not one of those
random places you go out there. Miss Sara may be working here, but she didnât sell herself to you.
Sheâs your employee, not your slave. Now that she ran into problems at work, shouldn't you, as the
manager, be the first to intervene? Are the employees in The Imperial Club there for you to scold
and beat as you wish? If that's the case, am I permitted to beat you now too? And you can't say
anything about that, right?"
After a pause, I continued, "Weâre a society ruled by law. She came here to sell beer, not her body.
If it's wrong for her to refuse a person who tried to force himself onto her, am I allowed to call the
police and report it?"
After hearing what I said, the manager glanced at Sara. I frowned.
Why did he look at Sara?
Before I could figure out the answer, the manager raised his intercom. "I need some men over
here."
In less than a few seconds, a few bodyguards ran over.
"You're not going to let me off today, are you, Miss?" the manager said coldly.
Judging from the way he behaved in front of Tyler just now, he was probably afraid of him.
If that was the case, he probably would not lay a finger on me.
Did that mean that The Imperial Club had a strong backer? This mere hall manager was bold
enough to behave domineeringly in front of Tyler.
I looked at Tyler.
He looked back at me and smirked. "This club belongs to the Louises."
So that was how it was...
Cassey stood up and asked with a grin, "Letâs be friends, Miss Lane."
I narrowed my eyes. "Is this how you normally make friends, Miss Louis?"
"Different people need to be treated in different ways." Cassey shrugged. "Why don't you just give
me an answer and tell me if we can be friends or not?"
This was my first time seeing someone forcing someone else to be friends.
I sneered. "If I refuse to be your friend, Miss Louis, then my brother and I wonât be able to step out
of this place today, huh?â
"Yes, you canât." Cassey was smiling even brighter now. "Like you said, this is a society ruled by
law. If you don't agree, I won't use violent means to force you t o agree. I can only think of other
ways."
"However..." She continued, "You don't have to worry about what will happen to Sara. Since she
was the one who started this whole thing, if that fatty comes over and gives me trouble next time, it'll
surely result in damages. Hence, she must be punished."
