NovelBookMilan glanced a long tat me, then his eyes suddenly lit up. He finally remembered who | was. "I can't believe
it's you."
I looked at him and smiled a little. "It's been a while, Mr. Milan."
He narrowed his eyes at Theo and chuckled in a meaningful manner. "What do you plan to do by bringing a
woman in here, Mr. Zimmerson?" Those words clearly conveyed his current displeasure.
Tory was nonchalant and merely said to Theo, "It's getting late, Mr. Grant. | can see that Mrs. Grant is tired. You
should go back earlier and get srest." "Are you messing with me, Tory?" Milan erupted in anger. He grabbed
the wine glass on the coffee table and hurled it at him.
Tory tilted his head and dodged it.
He had no plans of entertaining Milan and continued to say to Theo, "You're visiting my grandpa tomorrow, so it
won't be good if you go to bed too late." He urged once more.

After being ignored twice, Milan was utterly enraged. He pulled out his weapon and pointed it at Tory.
"Zimmerson, how dare you mess with me?!"
My heart trembled as my nerves tensed at the sight of his weapon.
Theo guardedbehind him, still calm and composed.
Tory was long used to being pointed at with weapons, so he looked at Milan with a dark gaze while saying with a
slight smile," If you want to walk out of here alive tonight, Mr. Milan, then you'd better put your weapon away."
Milan's gaze turned austere. "How dare you threaten me?"
Tory shrugged. "I'm not."
It was clear that Milan was holding back his anger. After several minutes of stalemate, he put his weapon away
and suddenly laughed while looking at Theo." We have plenty of time, Mr. Grant. See you soon." Theo had been
very calm from the beginning to the end. Even at this moment, he nodded with a blank expression. "I'll welcome
you with open arms anytyou want to have a drink together. As for everything else, my answer will still be the
same. | won't do things to hurt others."
He pulledout of the private room after saying that.
| followed behind him the whole time, my heart full of doubts.
The lobby on the first floor was still lively as before. After walking past a gambling table, we left the casino.
The person Grayson sent to keep us safe had been waiting outside the door the whole time. When he saw us
coming out safely, he greeted us and left.
Theo and | got into the car. Neither of us said a word. Our expressions were both grave.
He started the car engine. Before the car could drive farther away, a group of people stood in our way.
Fortunately, these guys were not trying to stop us but another man.
They dragged the man and started punching and kicking him in public.
The man hugged his head and kept pleading for mercy but to no avail. Those guys did not leave until he was

Theo watched with a cold gaze. The man on the ground struggled several times to his feet but could not stand
up even after several tries. He wriggled on the ground like a maggot.
| could not bear to watch it and asked Theo, "Can we help him?"
Theo pursed his lips and made no reply.
Silence was his answer, so | could only
choose to turn a blind eye.
We were not in Capital City. Besides, we were at the entrance of a casino. My kindness would only bring us
trouble.
Theo looked at the man in front of the car with a frown. The car could not move if he kept lying here.
After waiting for a few minutes and seeing that the man had not left but was instead just lying down, Theo «
narrowed his eyes and slammed on the gas pedal.
