Chapter 59

Selina stood arms crossed, looking down at Frank as if he were an insect about to be crushed. Frank, terrified by her gaze, could barely move. He tried to rise but lacked the strength to retreat into Justin's embrace.

"You called the police?" Justin's face paled. If this became public, and Selina pursued it, it would cause serious trouble for Black Smoke. Even a successful resolution would severely damage their reputation. There was no time for blame. Justin grabbed Frank, intending to leave and consult lawyers on how to explain things to the police.

Unexpectedly, Frank's girlfriend, Jasmine, enraged by Frank's distress, lunged forward, slapping Selina. "You shut up! How dare you hit my man? Who do you think you are?"

"Jasmine!" Justin despaired. He couldn't believe Jasmine would cause trouble now, but it was too late to stop her. Jasmine's attack would only worsen the situation; Selina would undoubtedly retaliate.

Jasmine's aggression was met with Selina's unflinching composure. Selina effortlessly caught Jasmine's hand, narrowed her eyes, and expressed her contempt. "No wonder losers like him are so arrogant and domineering. It's because they have women like you who willingly degrade yourselves, bringing them shame."

"Screw you!" Jasmine cursed, attempting to kick Selina.

Suddenly, rapid footsteps approached. Lydia kicked Jasmine, sending her sprawling.

"Ah!" Jasmine screamed, writhing in pain on the ground.

"Lydia…" Selina called out.

"Selina, I knew you were in trouble when you took so long in the restroom," Lydia said. "Beating up scum? Why didn't you call me for such entertainment? Fortunately, I arrived just in time."

Jasmine, recovering from the pain, struggled to rise. "How… how dare you hit me! Do you know who I am? Do you know who my father is? I'm Jasmine, daughter of the underground boss who rules this street! You wait… I'll call my dad and have you all killed!"

Lydia feigned fear. "I'm so scared. Hurry up, call your dad. Otherwise, I won't be able to restrain myself. I feel like I haven't hit you enough yet."

Jasmine, greatly irritated, called her father. Tears streamed down her face as she spoke. "Dad… I'm at the store, and someone is bullying me. Please help me."

After hanging up, Jasmine clutched her ribs, sneering at Selina and Lydia. "Wait. My dad will be here soon. Then you'll be dead. Don't even think about running away."

Lydia responded indifferently, gesturing to Selina. "Selina, it seems we'll have some fun tonight. Let's have some post-dinner exercise."

Selina shrugged. "Well, Lydia, someone already called the police. It seems we won't be fighting anymore."

"What? Should we ask them to pause for a moment? After we've knocked them down and had our fun, we can let the police clean up afterward," Lydia replied.

Selina was speechless.

Justin, seeing the escalating chaos, wanted to quickly take Frank and leave. He wanted no part in the increasingly volatile situation. As for Jasmine, he decided to let her face the consequences; it was her own business.

"Want to escape?" Lydia, still angry, charged at Frank, already weakened by Selina, kicking him repeatedly before Justin could intervene.

"How… how dare you hit my man!" Jasmine's tears flowed, but considering Lydia's strength, she hesitated to approach rashly. She looked for a weapon, spotting a broom, and attempted to use it against Lydia to help Frank.

Before she could move, a foot sent her sprawling.

Selina said coldly, "If you want to degrade yourself, that's your choice. But resorting to sneak attacks? Call your dad quickly. I'll help clean up this mess for free."

"You!" Jasmine fumed.

"Jasmine!" A bald, middle-aged man, shirtless, wearing a large gold chain and a dragon tattoo, stormed in with several delinquents. Even the security guards couldn't stop them. Patrons either hid or watched the ensuing spectacle.

Charley, who had been in the restroom, heard the commotion and hid in the crowd. Seeing Selina surrounded, he murmured, "Wow, this guy is bold. Daring to lay a hand on Trevon's woman… he's digging his own grave." He knew Trevon's protective nature and how much he cherished Selina. While Charley could easily intervene, he found it more entertaining to involve Trevon. He sent Trevon a WhatsApp message and a short video: [Trevon, your wife is being cornered. Hurry and rescue her. A chance to show off!]

Trevon replied: [Let her play first. I'll go over later.]

Charley was puzzled and sent another message: [Let her play? Trevon, don't joke. They're outnumbering her. You need to come save your wife!]

But Trevon didn't reply.

The situation escalated rapidly. Jasmine ran to her father, Liam, tearfully explaining the events. "Dad, this woman seduced my boyfriend and hit me!"

Liam, furious, was ready to confront anyone who had harmed his daughter. But upon seeing Selina, he was speechless. He thought, So beautiful! He had never seen such beauty.

"Dad?" Jasmine was infuriated by her father's captivated reaction. It felt like a slap in the face.

"Damn it! How dare you hurt my precious daughter?" Liam said.
