Seeing that Joey was about to leave, Bennett's eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness. He gritted his teeth, and waved his hand to call the security guards to stop both Fade and Joey.
Her face instantly fell. She asked coldly, "What is the meaning of this? Are you trying to force me?"
Bennett took a step forward and replied indifferently, "I'm a civilized person, so why would I commit a crime? I only stopped you, so that I can stand up for justice."
"Justice? What justice?" She frowned.
The corners of Bennett's lips curled up into a grin. He picked up a teacup from the table next to him and released the teacup. With a snap, the teacup fell to the floor and shattered into pieces.
Then, he squinted at Joey and said, "You accidentally broke my teacup. You should compensate me before leaving!"
"This teacup is also not something rare. It's just an antique from the Qing dynasty's Imperial Palace. It's not worth a lot. It's only worth six million yuan. Tell me, how do you want to compensate for it?" Bennett stared at Joey proudly.
When she heard his words, her expression grew grim as she glared at him. "Are you trying to blackmail me?"
"Huh? What are you talking about? You are the one who broke my antique teacup. Everyone has seen it. How is that blackmail?" Bennett spread out his hands and looked at the surrounding people. He then narrowed his eyes at Joey.
Pollard and everyone else understood Bennett's meaning, thus they spoke out one after another.
"You are supposed to pay for something after you have broken it! Young lady, do you want to go back on your word?"
"This is one of the antiques that Bennett kept. It's one of a kind. 5 million yuan is already not considered much."
"You should pay for it quickly, otherwise, Bennett can call the police on you."
Bennett stared at Joey arrogantly, stroked his chin and asked, "What do you think? Are you willing to pay now? Of course, if you don't have money, you can compensate me in other ways."
After that, he looked at her up and down, a sinister grin playing on his lips. His saliva was about to drool out. Obviously, he was thinking about something obscene.
Upon seeing this, her gaze turned cold, revealing a look of disgust.
Fade then stepped forward to Bennet.
"What are you trying to do?" Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from him, Bennett was a little alarmed.
Without any hesitation, Fade swung his hand, and slapped Bennett's face. The tremendous force immediately knocked him over. He was thrown into the air, and he finally fell heavily on the ground with a painful grunt.
Then, Fade took Joey and walked towards the door.
The security guard before them saw how skillful Fade was, and did not dare to stop him. He quickly made way for the both of them to leave.
Bennett, who had been supported up by Pollard and the others, stared after them with resentment in his eyes. There was a trail of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and his cheeks were swollen. He gritted his teeth. "How dare you hit me. I, Bennett Xu, will never let you go."
