Chapter 1008: Bodyguard

Xu Feng’s eyes narrowed as he held Rebecca’s arm and dragged her behind him.

Afterward, he stepped forward and blocked Jackie’s advance.

"What do you plan on doing?" Xu Feng questioned coldly. He originally planned to leave quietly, but Jackie’s murderous intent made it hard for him to simply ignore it.

"Move aside," Jackie hissed coldly.

Based on his expression, he had clearly mistaken Xu Feng for some bodyguard.

After all, Xu Feng was dressed way too casually and completely lacked the appearance of a VIP.

"Feng, just end him quickly." Rebecca suddenly held a sly grin and ordered.

Allison sighed in response when she realized her friend was up to no good again.

Thanks to Rebecca’s order, Jackie’s thought process was reinforced that Xu Feng was a bodyguard or similar type.

’Women are really troublesome.’ Xu Feng twitched his brows. He didn’t expect his kind gesture would result in a backlash.

It was a good thing that he didn’t speak much to Rebecca. Otherwise, who knows what kind of schemes she might plan ahead?

"You’ve heard the miss, right?" Taking on the role of a bodyguard, Xu Feng might as well have used her name to deter the other party.

"If you don’t leave right now, then I’m afraid the Richards Family will have a lovely talk with your Carlson Family."

Sure enough, Jackie’s body trembled slightly upon hearing the Richards Family. Initially, he wished to establish contact first with Rebecca in hopes of using the latter’s family reputation to alleviate his Carlson Family.

Despite not being involved in the scandal, it still affected him deeply.

Additionally, if he managed to resolve the family’s crisis, then his chances of inheriting the family’s fortune, as well as rising in the family would increase tremendously.

Although the Carlson Family was lacking in comparison with the Richards Family, their family still held substantial influence.

How could he be willing to scram just because Rebecca told him to?

Jackie ignored Xu Feng’s presence. Instead, he shifted his attention to Rebecca and said. "Miss Rebecca, I only hope that you can take back the words you said earlier. Our family is still in a legal court battle regarding the sexual harassment case. Innocent until proven guilty. Your words have a heavy implication that we’re guilty."

He knew the opportunity was lost already, but he needed the latter to clarify the matter. Otherwise, the other people watching the scene would definitely spread the news to the media about Rebecca’s statement.

By then, even if their family was declared innocent, they would have lost the public trust.

After all, behind Rebecca was the Richards Family who controlled the finance market.

"Want me to take back my words?" Rebecca raised an eyebrow before bursting into laughter.

Soon, her expression turned cold as she sneered, "Who the hell do you think you are to tell me what to do? A mere Carlson Family—no, a mere Jackie who is akin to a nobody dares to talk to me as an equal is laughable enough. When I said get out, I meant it."

Just because Rebecca had been behaving mild and gentle toward Xu Feng and Allison didn’t mean she would be the same toward others. This was especially true when the opposing person came here with ill intentions.

With a single glance, Rebecca instantly understood Jackie was overestimating himself and wanting to ride on her family’s background to resolve his issues.

This was the kind of incident that she had dealt with daily.

How could she possibly fall for it?

As Rebecca’s tone went sharp and cold, Jackie also lost his patience.

In the heat of rage, Jackie attempted to propel himself forward to teach Rebecca a lesson. Their Carlson Family had always been the arrogant one, and never the other way around.

So what if you’re from the Richards Family?

Their family was already suffering a heavy reputation and stock market pummeling, so his action could only be considered a drop in the ocean.

"What a foolish choice." Allison shook her head. She wasn’t worried at all about Jackie’s sudden offense.

After all, she knew about Xu Feng’s capability the most. Back when her home was invaded, it was also thanks to Xu Feng’s contribution and effort that managed to thwart the invasion.

This incident was also known by Rebecca, which was why she displayed zero fear and even enticed Xu Feng to make a move in advance. Knowing it and seeing it first-hand were two totally different experiences after all.

Indeed, without much surprise, Xu Feng swiftly caught up to Jackie and apprehended him on the spot.

With a loud "thud", Jackie was suppressed to the ground with Xu Feng’s shoe stepping on his back.

"Daring to make a move in the VIP section. You sure bring shame to the Carlson Family. Whoops, the fallen Carlson Family I should say." Xu Feng coldly remarked, essentially declaring the fall of the Carlson Family was destined.

Jackie tried to struggle and free his body, but due to Xu Feng applying Energy Force throughout his body, he remained restrained.

Thus, he could only use his mouth to curse. "A fucking bodyguard dares to treat a VIP Ticket holder like this. Just wait till the security arrives to detain you!"

Jackie might have been impulsive, but he wasn’t actually completely stupid.

He only feigned to make a move against Rebecca to bait his bodyguard to react and stop him. Once that occurred, Jackie could simply use the securities in the VIP section to capture Xu Feng.

No matter the reason, a VIP Ticket holder being assaulted by a non-VIP ticket holder was a grave offense.

While Jackie felt his victory was certain, he tried to glance at Rebecca to see her look of despair. After all, he managed to trap her bodyguard into numerous trouble.

However, his expression turned awkward when he spotted Rebecca behaving very nonchalantly. No, it was more accurate to say that she wasn’t even focusing on the scene and was chatting with another woman.

Allison felt a little bad about the latter’s confusion and decided to clarify the situation for him. "The person who detained you isn’t a bodyguard, but a legitimate VIP Ticket holder. You messed up big time, Mister Jackie."
