Chapter 114 Shameless Situated in a prime location, Tyrone Restaurant was under the ownership of Tyrone, the leader of Jadeboroughâs criminal underworld.
gaze fixed Within a private room furnished with conference amenities, a young man sat, his on the shut door of the conference area. A cigarette dangled from his lips, and a jovial air surrounded him.
A short while later, the door opened, and a young man with a hawk nose came out, his cheeks flushed as he tightened his belt. âDerrick, youâre indeed an expert at having fun. This female teacher is pretty skilled!â
Derrick chuckled. âMr. Mackle, as long as you like it, I can arrange students to keep you company, let alone teachers.â
âReally?â Todd Mackleâs eyes lit up. âDonât you pull my leg!â
Derrick waved his hand dismissively. âDonât you realize who my father is? I can effortlessly make that occur. As long as we offer a substantial reward, we can engage in whatever we please.â
Behind Todd, an innocent-looking young lady clad in professional attire walked out.
Her cheeks were tinged with a rosy hue, and her hair was slightly disheveled.
A bashful expression adorned her features.
Derrick gestured for her to sit beside him. Wrapping an arm around her waist, he said, âMr. Mackle is satisfied with your service!â
Michelle pushed him, feeling embarrassed. âStop it. Iâm embarrassed.â
Both Derrick and Todd burst out laughing when they heard her reply.
Derrick then recalled Casper, who had been beaten up in the shopping mall earlier. âBy the way, didnât you mention you want to marry Casper next year? Why didnât you apologize and console him earlier?â
Todd asked curiously, âWhat happened?â
Derrick explained what had happened at the shopping mall earlier.
Toddâs interest was piqued. âYes, if you want to marry him, why did you leave with Derrick? Are you dumping him?â
O Michelle said shamelessly, âWeâre all adults, so why do I need to make a choice? I want both Derrick and Casper. Iâll just go back to Casper and apologize to him later. That will do.â
Todd teased, âInteresting. You want both money and a husband!â
âThatâs right!â Michelle nodded. âCasper treats me well and loves me with all his heart, but he is destitute. Derrick canât marry me and only wants to have sex with me, but he can give me money. Why should I choose when I can have both?â
Thud!
Right after she said that, the door to the private room was kicked open. Derrick and the rest stood up in shock.
Finnegan marched in with Casper. âMichelle, youâre shameless enough to want both and a husband, huh?â
Casper had heard Michelleâs words loud and clear.
After coming in, he shot her a disgusted look. âYou disgusting b*tch!â
money Regaining her composure, Michelle shouted, âCasper, what have I done to deserve this? Since you canât provide me with money, Iâm putting in my utmost effort to earn it myself. Weâll marry eventually and share the money, so you should be grateful to me. Who are you anyway? Wait, is that you, Finnegan?â
She suddenly recognized Finnegan.
Derrick, who had been watching the debacle with a smirk, frowned and turned to Finnegan.
âOh, itâs really you, Finnegan. Are you back as you found out the Chomsky family is doomed?â Derrick managed between clenched teeth, as though he had a grudge against Finnegan.
Despite being the principalâs son, he was often overshadowed by Finnegan and didnât get much attention back when they were in school.
Finnegan shot Derrick an icy look. âLike father, like son. You and Robert indeed resemble each other!â
âFinnegan, you better choose your words carefully. Even your father didnât dare address me like this in the past, so you certainly donât have the right to do so!â Derrick bellowed.
Todd asked, âDerrick, what is going on?â
Derrick briefly explained the situation.
}
Hearing that, Todd snorted icily and gave a dismissive wave. âScram, and compensate for the door you broke. I wonât pursue the matter for Derrick and Michelleâs sake. Otherwiseâ¦â He let out a derisive snort.
Derrick urged, âFinnegan, Casper, you should leave now. Todd is from the Mackle family, the founder of Mackle Group. Do you know who their backer is?â He pointed at the ceiling and revealed, âMr.
Calandrino, the leader of the underground world in Jadeborough!â
After a pause, he said, âHowever, thereâs no need to inform Mr. Calandrino about such a minor matter as this. I can teach you a lesson easily!â
âCasper, you should go,â Michelle urged. âDerrickâs father holds a high position in the Department of Education, and he has influential connections. Derrick himself is the vice director of the purchasing department at Pentariver Group. Heâs also close friends with Zephyr Haimowitz of the Haimowitz family. You canât afford to provoke him!â
Feeling frustrated, Casper had the urge to rush forward to teach both Derrick and Michelle a harsh lesson.
However, he calmed down upon hearing their words and said reluctantly, âCome on, Finnegan. Letâs go.â
It wasnât worth it to offend Derrick and the like just to vent his anger.
Finnegan placed a reassuring hand on Casperâs shoulder. âSince I brought you here, Iâm determined to help you reclaim your self-respect. The other partyâs influence and status are irrelevant!â
He pointed at Derrick and Michelle. âGo, do whatever you want to them. Even if you kill them, it doesnât matter.â
âFinnegan?â
Finnegan said in a stern voice, âCasper, if you still have a shred of dignity left in you, do as I say. If you refuse to act like a man, Iâll leave right now, and we wonât be friends anymore.â
Casperâs body stiffened, and he hesitated.
âFinnegan!â Michelle barked. âDo you know how capable Derrick and Mr. Mackle are? Even if you have a death wish, donât drag my Casper into this mess!â
Hearing that, Casper burst out furiously, âI donât belong to you, you b*tch!â
Casperâs fury was ignited when he heard her reply, and he was thoroughly disgusted.
Ignoring the consequences, he rushed forward and grabbed Michelleâs collar, giving her a forceful slap.
Then, he grabbed her hair and gave her a kick, sending her toppling to the ground.
Michelleâs cheek swelled up immediately. Her hair was messy as she cried, âCasper, how could you hit your girlfriend? Are you even a man?â
Both Derrick and Todd watched the scene with smirks playing on their lips, showing no intention to help.
They merely treated this as an interesting show, Suddenly, Casper spun around and gave Derrick a punch.
Not anticipating that Casper would muster the courage to throw a punch, Derrick received a direct hit.
Blood spurted out of his nose as he fell to the ground with a crash.
Casper took the chance to beat him to a pulp.
âCasper, how dare you beat me up? Have you thought about the consequences? Stop righ now, or Iâll make you pay a heavy price for your actions!â
âCasper, are you nuts? Stop it! You canât hit Derrick!â
Alas, the more Derrick issued threats and the harder Michelle attempted to intervene, the more relentless Casper became in his demeanor Toddâs expression turned dark. âI initiated the meeting today and invited them here. Are you trying to humiliate me?â He raised three fingers. âIâll give you until three, and you better stop. If not, youâll be escorted out of Tyrone Restaurant on a stretcher!â
âOne, twoâ¦â
Perhaps Casper had calmed down after venting his anger, for he came to a stop as anxiety flashed across his eyes.
Toddâs voice was dripping with disdain. âI thought you were fearless. It turns out youâre still afraid!â
Finnegan pulled a chair over and sat down, crossing his legs. âGo on, Casper. Iâll support you no matter what!â
