Chapter 1697 The New Owner
After accepting the call, she asked, “What’s the matter?” A few moments later, she hung up the call and picked up her bag. “Rebecca is causing trouble at the club and is fighting with the employees. I’d better go and take a look.”
Rebecca? Again? Is it that hard for her to stay away for a day?
Since Summer was not there, my job as her mother was to protect her hard work.
Immediately, I stood up and grabbed Emery’s arm to stop her from leaving. “Please wait for me. I’ll go with you after I change my clothes.”
I’m eager to see what else Rebecca has up her sleeves after failing to slander me. If she wants to go against me for the rest of our lives, then be it!
Amid my fury, I failed to notice Ashton’s reaction toward it.
I didn’t realize that he did not accompany me there like last time until I entered the car.
Rolling down the car window, I felt disappointed after seeing Ashton not sending me off.
However, I quickly pulled myself together. Even without Ashton, I can still teach Rebecca a lesson all the same!
When we arrived there, the place was an absolute mess.
The club’s lobby was filled with people. Rebecca was there with Quince’s subordinates, and our employees were guarding the door. It looked like the men were preparing an uprise the way they surrounded the club.
It was hard to spot Rebecca’s tiny figure as she was standing between big, burly men. However, her sharp voice was enough for me to know where she was standing at.
“Why are you making such a fuss? I’m going to fire every single one of you for treating your boss this way. How dare you point at me! You’re not going to leave this place alive, I’m telling you! What? Your boss’ words are the proof you want. Summer already announced that I will be taking over this club from today onward. I’ll be in charge of every decision here. What right does an employee like you have to doubt me? I’m running out of patience. What are you all doing in a daze? Go on and chase all of them out!”
Upon hearing Rebecca’s order, the black men whistled and started to catch the employees like maniacs.
The club employees were not trained in fighting and equipped with proper weapons. While standing closely together, they held onto the mop, chairs, and stools tightly.
The man standing in front was more petite in size. Although his glasses had almost been slapped off, he refused to back down.
It was a touching scene, and I could only sigh that Summer had a good eye for choosing her employees.
“Stop, stop!” Even though Emery and I tried our best to scream, our voices were covered by the commotion.
“F*ck!” Emery cursed and strutted out of the room. A moment later, she returned with a megaphone. “Stop it right now!”
Although my eardrums almost burst by how loud her voice was, it worked.
Everyone in the lobby turned around, and a hush fell over the room.
Emery did not feel embarrassed but continued to talk into the megaphone. “I know that you’re acting like- Oh. I forgot that you are a foreigner. Okay. I’ll be straightforward and remind you that you’re in Chanaea. Do not assume you can do the same thing here as back in your country. I’ll give you ten minutes. If you don’t run off in ten minutes, I’ll make sure every single one of you will have a chance to meet with the border police.” In the end, she muttered in a low voice, “F*ck! I didn’t manage to teach you a lesson back then too. Thankfully you decided to show up by yourself.”
The foreigners exchanged glances, seemingly unaware of the severity of the situation.
