Left with no choice, Ian parted his lips and choked out, "I'm sorry."
Nathan said coldly. "Apologize to my aunt!"
Aunt?
Ian's mind went blank for a few minutes before he realized Nathan was referring to Wendy. Hence, he turned to the woman and apologized to her.
Wendy was stunned by the turn of events.
Ian was a powerful media mogul whom no one dared to offend, but Nathan's subordinate had just beaten him up and he was even kneeling before her right now. No one would believe her even if she told them about it.
After hearing Ian's apology, Nathan said coldly, "I'm in a good mood today, so I won't pursue the matter further. From now on, stay away from Aunt Wendy. If you dare to find her troubles, I'll make sure you die a horrible death."
Right after saying that, he left with Wendy and Colin in tow.
The onlookers who spotted Ian started pointing fingers at him while exclaiming, "Isn't that the Media Godfather, Ian Grant? What happened to him?"
Ian felt his cheeks burning as he struggled to get up.
His injured bodyguards also helped each other up aside him.
The man's expression darkened in fury as his eyes reddened. Glaring in the direction where Nathan and Wendy left, he announced, "Wendy, you b***h! How dare you get someone to beat me up? This isn't over!"
He took out his phone and called an underworld friend of his in Mayberry. "Grolf, let's meet for lunch at two today. I need your help, my friend."
Meanwhile, Nathan and Colin arrived at Wendy's house. It was a 150-square feet residence that was decorated prettily.
Nathan smiled and praised, "It's nice!"
Wendy let out a bitter laugh. "I bought it a while ago. But now my agency is in trouble, I'm going to sell it soon."
Upon hearing her words, Nathan recalled how Ian said he had blacklisted Wendy's agency, driving them to bankruptcy.
Glancing around, he asked curiously, "Where's your husband?"
Wendy's cheeks flushed a bright red as she protested, "I'm not even married yet!"
