Chapter My Toyboy 223
Chapter 223
Levi Xenos frowned and stared at Cynthia for a moment. Finally, he reached out to take the teacup Cynthia handed over Just as his fingers touched Cynthia's, she smoothly slipped a small note into his palm.
This action was well-practiced. Levi, with his military background, was instinctively skilled in this kind of message-passing He calmly took it and hid it in his palm. The two exchanged a glance. Even under everyone's watchful eyes, nobody noticed this subtle move. For two reasons, she shouldn't tell him directly that someone was plotting against him. First, Cynthia wasn't really familiar with this Mr. Nenos, so she could only give him a subtle hint, Second, she wasn't sure if there were any accomplices among those present. Having delivered the message, Cynthia considered her task complete and prepared to leave. However, she was stopped by Edward. "Why leave so soon? It's rare for our Mr. Xenos to enjoy your tea. Stay and chat with him for a while."
Cynthia gave Edward a cold look. "Sorry, I entered the wrong room." With that, she turned to leave right away.
Tommy, of course, knew who Cynthia was, but still couldn't resist poking fun. "Edward, just let her go. She might have a class later or something"
Edward has very specific preferences. For years, he had been surrounded by college students, the kind that were fresh-faced and youthful. And Ms. Jones, with just a bit of makeup, turned into someone as alluring as a siren, but when she was without makeup she seemed as innocent as a lotus untouched by worldly matters.
Clearly, Edward had mistaken her for someone else. With impatience in his eyes, he grabbed Cynthia's arm and said. "Didn't I tell you to take a day off? Just stay today, and if necessary, I'll personally call your school to excuse you later."
Cynthia looked at the man in front of her, who seemed refined but had a sharp, shrewd gaze. Her voice was cold. "Let go of me. I already told you, I walked into the wrong room
Edward didn't believe her at all. He wondered, 'Wrong room? Then why did you obediently serve tea to Levi just now!
Edward's expression showed obvious displeasure. "Stop playing hard to get. With all the money I've given you, serving a cup of tea should be the least you can do. Do you think it's that easy to earn money? Don't pretend to be so high and mighty: Im not buying it. Sit back down. He pulled Cynthia back.
Seeing Cynthia being pulled, Levi stood up. His expression was cool and distant, ready to step in. Just then, the door to the room opened, and Jonathan walked in.
Everyone was momentarily taken aback when they saw Jonathan The room had been filled with people, and many of them had rushed over to watch the commotion as soon as it started. Once Jonathan appeared, the room fell silent instantly.
Mr. Bennett was the first to react, quickly putting on a smile and saying, "What brings you here, Mr. Bennett?"
Jonathan walked in casually, lus eyes fixed on the hand Edward was using to hold Cynthia. Cynthia hadn't anticipated Jonathan entering at that exact moment, just when she was thinking about flipping Edward over her shoulder.
Jonathan's voice was calmn, revealing nothing. "Edward, what's going on here?"
Out of the corner of his eye, Edward glanced at Cynthia before saying. "The newcomer doesn't know the rules. I was just about to teach her a lesson."
Jonathan replied indifferently, "Oh! And how do you plan to punish?"
Edward noticed Jonathan's gaze fixed on Cynthia's face and felt sense of joy. Clearly, Mr. Bennett was interested in this newcomer as well. To be fair, the college student who showed up today had a face that could easily catch anyone's attention -even he was captivated. 14:24 Tue, Nov 12 B.
Chapter 223
Wanting to please jonathan, Edward suggested, "How about having her take off her clothes and dance for everyone?"

The crowd around them instantly started to make a fuss. Edward didn't notice that Jonathan's gaze became icy, like a dagger, after hearing those words. Tommy gasped in shock. He thought How dare Edward However, he and Edward were outwardly friendly but actually didn't get along at all. Naturally, he was more than happy to see what kind of trouble Edward would face next.
Levi, with his cold demeanor, was about to step in to stop everything. But Tommy quietly stopped him. Tommy whispered. Levi, there's no need for you to intervene, just watch Only then did Levi remain silent. Suddenly, Jonathan spoke up, "Edward, I wasn't asking you."
For a moment, Edward was taken aback, unsure of what Mr. Bennett meant by his words.
Jonathan repeated the question, "So, how are you planning to punish him?"
After he said that, the people around him suddenly realized that Mr. Bennett wasn't speaking to Edward, but instead to the "college student" Edward had brought along.
Everyone looked at each other, completely clueless about what was going on. Only Tommy seemed to be enjoying the show.
Cynthia shook off Edward's hand and said with interest, "Since this gentleman likes watching people undress and dance so much, then make him do a striptease in every single room!"
Edward was stunned, his face filled with disbelief. He suddenly dropped his calm facade and shouted angrily. "You bitch, what did you just say?
Smack! A loud slap hit Edward's face, making him stagger back a few steps. A bit of blood instantly appeared at the corner of his mouth He looked at Jonathan in shock. "Why did you hit me?"
"I hit you because you need to watch your language. If you don't, I'll have someone tear your mouth apart," replied Jonathan
Among this group of people, Jonathan had a commanding presence. Especially when he was serious, nobody dared to oppose him.
Edward was unwilling to yield. "Mr. Bennett, are you sure you want to fall out with me and the Edward family over an insignificant woman?"
Jonathan laughed, but his laughter was more chilling than his anger. "Edward, who do you and your Edward family think you are?"
Edward clenched his fingers tightly. Indeed, compared to the Bennett family, the Edward family was insignificant. Edward family businesses relied on the Bennetts, and if he really offended Jonathan, he'd probably face serious consequences when he got back. Many
Still, Edward couldn't understand. He was a well-ranked member of Betrico, yet Jonathan was publicly humiliating him over woman.
Just then, Tommy finally stepped in. "Edward, do you really not know who this Ms. Jones is?"
Edward was furning. "Who is she? Just an ordinary college girl, or a heavenly goddess? What makes her so important to you?" Jonathan held Cynthia's hand, intertwining their fingers. "Edward open your eyes wide and see clearly, she's my fiancee."
