Chapter 110
But he still answered honestly for a second time, "His name is Tom."
Mr. Potter placed the cigarette butt in a man's palm, then stood up and said, "Tom, Tom... The name sounds good."
Rory was speechless, thinking in his mind that he came here to seek revenge on Tom, and why did Mr. Potter even praise Tom's name?
Rory was not sure about Mr. Potter's personality and preferences. He always felt that Mr. Potter was dangerous and unpredictable.
Then he said to Jeremias, "Is the matrilocal son-in-law who hit you also called Tom?"
"That's right, that's right! That's right, Mr. Potter. His name is also Tom, very hateful..." Jeremias nodded quickly. He wanted to say more, but Wili glared at him. He remembered that Mr. Potter didn't like talkative people. He quickly swallowed it back and stopped.
Mr. Potter smiled meaningfully, "That's interesting. It's the same person. It seems that Tom has some learning."
Rory asked, "Mr. Potter, what about my thing..."
Mr. Potter nodded slightly, indicating that he had agreed.
Rory was overjoyed. Then he thought of something and said, "But Tom is protected by Malcolm..." Wili, who was on the side, said in a low voice, "It is just Malcolm, who doesn't even deserve to carry Mr. Potter's shoes.”
"Mr. Potter is mighty!" Rory shouted.
Mr. Potter waved and said, "I'm tired. You can leave after you pay the bill."
Rory wanted to continue chatting with Mr. Potter to deepen their friendship, but Mr. Potter had already ordered him to leave. So he had no choice but to give up, thinking that when the thing was done, he would make good friends with Mr. Potter at a proper time.
After they all left, Mr. Potter went back to his study and closed the door. He took out a file bag from the safe that seemed to have been sealed for a long time. He then took out a photo from the bag. It was a man with a bright smile. It was the very Tom!
To be exact, it was Tom a few years ago, who looked younger.
Mr. Potter gently stroked the photo, tears were filled in his eyes, and he was recalling something. Kaylie had been very disturbed lately. She clearly didn't like Martin at all, but her father ignored her feelings and insisted on marrying her to Martin, which made her so angry!
She had protested many times, but her father still refused to talk to her and decided that Martin was her lover.
For this reason, she had not eaten for two days, which made her stomach sound.
She locked herself in her room and showed her attitude by refusing to eat.
Now she was especially eager to see her Mr. Right coming, just as the movie said, Mr. Right would be stepping on the colorful clouds and flying over, appearing in the limelight and winning her over! She liked to read novels since she was a child, those novels about heroism. As such, she had always had the hope. Therefore, she liked to dress up as a man and yearned for a free and easy life of love and hatred. However, she was a female, and the restraints were too many to break free.
She hated arranged marriages and didn't like Martin at all. Unfortunately, she was born into a rich family and couldn't do anything about it.
Today, in a novel, she read the plot of the female protagonist escaping from marriage, then meeting her Mr. Right, and living a wonderful and extraordinary life. This immediately affected her.
She lifted the quilt and put on her men's clothes. When the bodyguards were not paying attention to her, she slipped out of her house
Because she left in such a hurry that she didn't even bring her cell phone with her. Coincidentally, she didn't like to bring cash. For a moment, she was penniless and didn't even have the money to take a taxi, so she had to walk on the road.
After walking for half an hour, she was very tired. She had not eaten much in the past two days and was not strong enough. Now that she had walked so far, she was even more tired.
She suddenly felt a little regretful. She came out in such a hurry that she didn't bring any money with her. In today's society, it was too difficult to live without money.
However, she immediately stopped and cheered herself up. No, she had only left home for half an hour. How could she give up? The protagonists in those novels were very determined. If she went back now in such a disgrace, she would be even more likely to be looked down upon by her father. Besides, she believed that she would meet her Mr. Right.
After cheering herself up, she continued walking.
Suddenly, she heard a cry from the left. She turned around and saw a scene that made her angry! In the alley, there were three ruffians who were bullying a small and thin student. Her brain was not thinking at the moment, and she strode over and shouted, "What are you all doing? Stop!"
In her excitement, she forgot to hide her voice and exposed her female voice, which immediately attracted the attention of the three gangsters in the alley, who then looked at her.
The three gangsters were a little afraid when being found out. Then they saw the person with a beautiful face. Even if the person was wearing men's clothes, she could not hide her beautiful figure. Their eyes got
lit up immediately.
Kaylie was full of passion for justice and did not realize that she was also a lamb to be killed, not a hero, and had no ability to save others at all. With a cold face, she deliberately walked in a majestic way towards them, then pointed at them, and shouted, "Apologizing to this boy, or I will not spare you!"
She felt that she must be very handsome and powerful at this moment. It was her first time acting like a hero ever since she was born. She was so excited that she ignored the fact that whether she was capable of being a hero or not was not sure.
The three gangsters looked at each other and laughed, "Where did this funny one come from? How dare you act like a hero? You must have read too many novels."
“Idiot.”
Kaylie was very angry. She had indeed read a lot of novels, so she was particularly disgusted with others saying that about her.
That skinny middle school student was also very speechless, and thought if there was anything wrong with this sister's mind?
"Shit!" Kaylie shouted, "You three baby thieves, daring to be so presumptuous when you are going to die! I order you to get out of here immediately, or else, don't blame me for being rude to you. I tell you, I'm a master of Sanda, so I can deal with you three easily!"
As she spoke, she also posed for Sanda.
Unfortunately, she was just acting with no true skills in Sanda. How could she know Sanda? Plus, she was a girl, so it could be said that she had no deterrence at all.
In particular, her outfit was completely neutral, not a woman dressed as a man. Even if the light in the alley was dim, they could tell at a glance that the person, Kaylie, was a woman.
And she was the kind of woman with a good figure. Now Kaylie was moving like Bruce Lee jumping around, which immediately attracted them and made them swallow their saliva hard!
They laughed in a weird way, and let go of the skinny middle school student. Then they walked straight to Kaylie and surrounded her. With creepy smiles, one of them said, “In today's society, there is actually beautiful woman who takes the initiative to send herself to us. We guys are so lucky.”
The other two licked their lips and said, "Yes, she's so beautiful. She must be very good to play with!"
Hearing this, Kaylie immediately panicked. They actually found out that she was a girl? How could this be?
In a panic, she suddenly punched hard and shouted, "Go to hell.” She was intending to strike first. Unfortunately, she was too weak, and she hadn't eaten for two days. This punch was so weak that the other person didn't even dodge. This punch could not even hurt people even if it was hit on the chest.
"Oh, she is quite fierce.” The man smiled weirdly and grabbed Kaylie by her hand.
Kaylie struggled a few times but failed. She became even more flustered and scared, "Let go of me!" "Let go of you? There's no way. Be good with the three of us, hahaha...”
The three of them smiled and were ready to take advantage of Kaylie. At this moment, Kaylie's face turned pale and she was 100% afraid.
She shed tears and regretted it enormously. If she had known such trouble, she would not have come out so willfully!
At this moment, she hoped that a Mr. Right would fly from the sky to save her!
Just then, a voice really sounded above her head, "If you don't want to die, let her go..."
