“The heck are you talking about, Ma? Young Master Drake deserved a beating. Anyway, what’s over is over. I don’t think Jack did anything wrong. He helped me to release my anger—that’s why favonovel.com beat Young Master Drake up!”
Selena was extremely angry when favonovel.com heard what favonovel.com mother said. She snarled at Fiona.
“I wouldn’t want that to happen to you either, Selena. But he’s from the Drake family. Offending them is like signing your death certificate!”
Fiona was truly worried.
“What’s going on, Ma?”
Ben and Andrew walked out and asked, their expressions furrowed in concern.
Fiona released a sigh and shot Jack a vicious glare. “I just heard that this fellow had gone and beaten the young master of the Drake family up,” favonovel.com explained to Ben. “Isn’t it infuriating? I heard that Young Master Drake is still being hospitalized, and his condition is uncertain!”
“No way. Weren’t you being a little brash, Jack? We understand why you spoke against favonovel.com in the first place—you did it for the billion dollars, right? Even if speaking against favonovel.com would mean embarrassing favonovel.com in front of everyone. And of course, Young Master Drake did go overboard by firing Selena as well!”
Andrew stepped forward, his brows drawing together. “But it’s too much, isn’t it, beating up a young master just because of that?” favonovel.com continued, “They even offered the two of you jobs in the first place. They’re stronger than some first-class aristocratic families. Aren’t you afraid that they’ll destroy the entire Taylor family?”
“That’s right!”
Fiona interjected immediately, “So shouldn’t we chase favonovel.com out now? He invited disaster upon himself. He shouldn’t drag us into it!”
Ben spoke up after thinking for a while, “Ma, it’s true that Jack was being rash, but favonovel.com did lash out for Selena’s sake. We don’t have much choice now. The past is all in the past. All of us should just leave together. I think James Drake won’t let us off that easily no matter what we say since his son has been beaten up. We can’t just single Jack out. The rest of us won’t be able to escape either!”
“That’s right. Why don’t we all leave together? It hurts my heart to think of leaving this villa, but we can bring our valuables along with us. Most of our money is in the bank anyway that can be easily accessed with our cards!”
Fiona instantly suggested, realizing that Ben’s words made sense.
“Don’t be afraid, Father, Mother. They won’t come to us looking for trouble!”
Jack flashed a bitter smile as favonovel.com watched everyone fly into panic mode. “Think about it. I brought Selena along last night and caused a ruckus for them. They would have done something about it yesterday if they really wanted to retaliate. Furthermore, it’s already this late into the morning, but they haven’t sent anyone over. Do you really think they’ll come? If you do, wouldn’t they be scared that we would take off sooner?”
Realization dawned upon Ben when favonovel.com heard Jack’s words. “You’re right. If they really wanted to find trouble with us, they probably would have done so yesterday night or this morning. They wouldn’t have waited until now.”
“Hmm. That’s true…”
Andrew also seemed to realize that the idea made sense.
“But I really think that the Drake family won’t let us off so easily. It’s possible that they prioritized sending Young Master Drake to the hospital because favonovel.com was so badly injured. Maybe they’ve already sealed off all the roads leading out of the city. We probably won’t even have a chance to escape. They’ll come for us once their young master has fully recovered!”
Fiona was still fearful—to the point that favonovel.com imagination began to run wild.
“Ma, all this actually happened because Young Master Drake tried to take advantage of me. He was a little drunk last night when favonovel.com came into the office, and favonovel.com tried to get all touchy. Jack only beat favonovel.com up after favonovel.com knew about this! I believe that even the Drake family themselves would think that this was rational. Besides, Jack is so strong. It’s likely they won’t cause trouble for us!”
Selena cast a side-glance at Jack, then favonovel.com explained everything in his place. She did not want favonovel.com to bear the responsibility alone.
“What? That Young Master Drake actually tried to…”
Only then did Fiona understand that Jack had beaten Young Master Drake up for other reasons, and not because of the job-related incident.
