Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Settling Scores Promptly Was His Unwavering Principle

"Fine. I won't be angry this time. It's because that person is really bad that it provoked you to take action. However, you can't do this again next time."

Adeline couldn't possibly be angry.

She even thought that the way Curtis grabbed Kevin's head and smashed it against the wall was incredibly cool!

However, she couldn't say it out loud. She still wanted to reprimand Curtis so that the latter wouldn't resort to violence easily.

Upon hearing that, Curtis smirked faintly, and he replied casually, "Okay."

Seeing them playfully flirting with each other, Kevin was on the verge of exploding in anger. "Hey, stop trembling! What are you two babbling about at a moment like this? Let me go immediately. If I die, both of you will end up in jail."

Upon hearing "end up in jail," Adeline was startled but quickly regained her composure and said calmly, "Have a few bodyguards leave and let us go. He'll then release his grip."

Right now, they had to retreat calmly instead of letting Kevin go abruptly just because he told them to do so. She vividly recalled how that treacherous man intended to use their outnumbered state against them!

Kevin repeatedly shouted at Jacob, "Hurry up and get your people out of here!"

Jacob was caught off guard by the sudden turn of events and took a while to react.

In the instant when Kevin's head collided with the wall, a voice echoed in his mind. "Crap. I'm doomed now."

Once he regained his senses, he dismissed the three bodyguards.

After the bodyguards opened the door, Adeline gently persuaded Curtis, "Darling, release him first. Let's leave first and think of other ways to handle this later."

"No. He has to apologize to you first," Curtis refused calmly.

As his voice fell, Curtis pressed the broken glass in his hand against Kevin, causing the latter to apologize repeatedly, "Ah-Sorry. I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I apologize."

"Say you're worse than a swine," Curtis added.

Kevin suppressed his anger, but he cursed himself with a tense expression, "I'm worse than a swine. I shouldn't have coveted you. Please forgive me and ask your husband to release me immediately."

While Curtis had yet to let go, Owen, who had planned for a deliberate encounter, took a quick glance inside and was shocked. He exclaimed, "My goodness! What are you guys doing?"

Owen entered the private room with large strides.

Jacob had previously caught sight of Owen from a distance at a banquet. He was the sole heir of the Doyle family, one of the four prestigious families in Prodiff.

Kevin was also acquainted with Owen and knew his identity. Upon seeing him at that moment, both of them showed the utmost respect and treated him like they would treat the God of Wealth.

"Hi, Mr. Doyle," Jacob greeted first.

"Mr. Doyle... I..." Kevin also greeted Owen, but his head was still pressed against the wall, and there was a shard of glass on his neck, making him feel rather embarrassed.

"What are you guys doing?" Owen might be a bit silly in private, but he always presented himself as an aristocratic gentleman in front of outsiders.

Jacob noticed that Owen was speaking up for them, so he quickly reprimanded Adeline's disabled husband.

"What are you looking at? Let go of him immediately! Mr. Doyle is here. Look at yourself now. How ridiculous. This is the person in power from the Doyle family, one of the four prominent families in Prodiff. Do you, a country bumpkin, even recognize him?"

Upon hearing those words, Owen's eyes widened in horror. He thought to himself, "Country bumpkin? The third son of the Riley family is being called a country bumpkin? Gosh. This is truly remarkable!"

Noticing Owen's reaction, Jacob's heart was instantly filled with a sense of unease, and he softly inquired, "Isn't this pathetic loser a country bumpkin?"

"Pathetic loser?" Owen struggled to gulp down as his eyes widened even more!

He had been close friends with Curtis for many years, and he had never encountered someone who would dare to call him that.

However, he soon realized what was going on.

As his wife was around today, he couldn't afford to ruin his image.

If it were any other day, these people wouldn't even have a chance to say a word.
