King's Awakening

Bang!

A massive clatter came, as if someone was breaking down the door. The atmosphere inside the private room instantly became quiet.

Amy and her company, who were originally in high spirits, were stunned by this unexpected commotion and immediately closed their mouths, turning in shock towards the direction of the door.

At this moment, Sherry Jones and Beryl Mill were also caught off guard. Without thinking, Sherry instinctively shielded Beryl behind her.

After all, Beryl was relatively petite, even some middle school kids were taller than her. She gave off an aura of needing protection, so Sherry, concerned for her safety, instinctively protected her.

“Jimmy?”

“Jasper?”

Without missing a beat, Amy and Fenny blurted out their boyfriends’ names in unison.

Amy even went on to say, “Jimmy, perfect timing, this shameless Sherry Jones wants you to help her…”

Rapidly speaking, Amy became increasingly excited, totally unaware that Jimmy’s face had turned into a color as dark as pig’s liver.

“Shut! The! Hell! Up!!”

Just as Amy’s excitement reached a fever pitch, Jimmy, with a stern face, shouted at her word by word. By the time the last word sprang from his mouth, he was already in Amy’s face.

Slap!

Jimmy’s arm swung low, landing a powerful slap on Amy’s face with a loud smack.

Taken by surprise, Amy received a full-on slap. Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth, and she was frozen on the spot, completely stunned.

This…

Everyone, including Sherry Jones, was stunned by this scene.

The private room plunged into silence once again.

Fenny tried to say something, but before she could get a word out, Jimmy slapped her as well.

With a scream, Fenny stared at Jimmy in shock and protested, “You…how could you hit me? I…”

As she spoke, Fenny turned to Jasper with a wounded look, “Jasper, look, he’s bullying me…”

Bullying you!?

Upon hearing this, Jasper’s face darkened. Without any hesitation, he walked over to Fenny, followed Jimmy’s lead and landed a harsh slap across her face.

The clear and sharp smack echoed in Beryl’s ears, sounding like the most pleasing melody!

“Hahaha…Serves you right!!!” After being suppressed the whole night, Beryl finally let out a whoop of triumph.

Before she could fully enjoy her joy, Sherry hurriedly intervened. After all, this was others’ family matter. Beryl’s unrestrained laughter was somewhat inappropriate.

If Jimmy and Jasper were provoked, things might become harder to handle, and Beryl might also be affected.

Beryl nodded, trying to contain her elated emotions.

Meanwhile, the slapped Amy had regained her senses. With a bewildered face, she looked at Jimmy, “Jimmy, why? Why did you hit me? Did I say something wrong?

No, I didn’t. It was Sherry Jones who said she wanted you to help…”

“You dare to talk back!?” Jimmy’s anger flared up again, and his hand landed another heavy smack on the other side of Amy’s face.

At this point, even Beryl, who was relishing in Amy’s misery, couldn’t help but feel a smidgeon, practically insignificant, sympathy for her.

Then, she saw Frank pointing down at Amy, threatening menacingly: “I warn you, if you dare utter one more nonsense here, I swear I will finish you off!

Don’t think that sleeping with me a few times makes you someone of importance. The women I bed every year are countless, what do you amount to?

If you dare to bully others using my name, I won’t let you off either!!!”

Halfway through his last sentence, Frank suddenly remembered the warning David had previously issued, which promptly made him change his tone.

Meanwhile, Jasper echoed Frank’s words to Fenny on the side.

Then, both Frank and Jasper turned to their girlfriends and said,”Why don’t you rush over to apologize to Miss. Jones now? Are you waiting for me to invite you?!”

This…

Amy was completely dumbfounded. Why should they apologize to Sherry? What gives Sherry the right to receive an apology from them? Doesn’t she only manage a third-tier family enterprise?

Considering their boyfriend’s status, they should be the ones looking down on Sherry. How had the roles suddenly reversed, and they now had to apologize to her?

Amy was visibly resentful, but at that moment, both Frank and Jasper unceremoniously made them trudge over to Sherry.

Out of helplessness, Amy could only kneel in front of Sherry against their will, apologizing to her with utter respect, which was a stark change from their previously arrogant demeanor.

Seeing this, Beryl almost jumped in elation. This moment indeed vented all her previous frustration.

As for Sherry, she was utterly confused as she wasn’t sure about went wrong. But from the injuries on Frank’s face, she inferred he’d been beaten.

Could it be that White Mitchell had punished them?

Upon this thought, Sherry couldn’t help but smile bitterly. It seemed White Mitchell had made two more enemies just to protect her.

While Sherry was lost in thought, both Frank and Jasper respectfully approached Sherry and obediently apologized to her.

Not only that, but both Frank and Jasper also each presented her with a one million dollar check, claiming it was to cover dinner’s expenses, with the rest serving as an apology to Sherry.

But in reality, the apology went deeper than just Sherry; the most important one being White Mitchell.

Initially, Sherry was reluctant to accept; after all, she assumed that they were doing this as a result of being beaten by White Mitchell. Holding onto that two million dollars could be compared to a ticking time bomb; you wouldn’t know when it might explode.

But Frank and Jasper begged her relentlessly, even knelt down to Sherry, like they’d would jump off the building if she didn’t accept the money.

Sherry had no choice but to reluctantly accept. But soon after, she remembered the reason why she came here tonight, and gathered the courage to ask Frank: “Mr. Jimmy, I wonder if I could ask you for an invitation to that bigwig’s wedding?

I… If it’s about money, I may not be able to afford 10 million at once. But I could pay in installments, with interest.

What do you think?”

Huh?

Upon hearing this, Frank froze. Sherry was asking him for an invitation to the wedding of that influential individual?

Dear lady, stop messing with me. Your fiance, White, has to be treated cautiously even by David.

Whether it’s one invitation or a warehouse full of them, if White requests it, David would be compelled to send them to you.

With that thought, Frank and Jasper could not help but glance at each other.

Sherry tightened her facial expression, and anxiously asked: “What? Is there a problem?”
