Theresa shook her head, “No, I won’t regret the decision I made, it just hurts somewhat to part with it.”
She sighed, “I can understand your feeling, but I don’t know how to comfort you.”
“Walk with me.” She held her arms.
Loredana nodded. It wasn’t so hot when walking under the leafy phoenix trees even though the weather was hot at noon.
As she had made the decision, she had enough preparation in her mind and she just need some time to let go.
She believed that she could endure it since she could persevere through the painful times before, and now she would be able to do so.
Compared to her pain, Armand wasn’t much better.
After leaving the restaurant, he went to drink alone.
He himself had ordered a few bottles of wine. Since he often came here, the manager was familiar with him and asked when he see him drinking alone, “I call a woman to accompany you?” Armand continued to pour wine into the glass, as if he didn’t hear what the manager said.
“It’s so boring to drink alone, I have girls who can drink a lot, it’s better to call one or two of them to accompany you rather than drinking alone.”
Armand felt him like a fly as he still buzzed in his ears when he was in a bad mood.
“What the fuck! Are you nuts? I come to drink and you ask me to find a girl. I’ve cleanliness, okay? Fuck you, get as far away as you can from me, don’t bother me here!”
He finally couldn’t hold back and cursed the manager who was babbling.
“I see you drinking alone and looked poor. Why don’t you understand my goodwill? You’re indeed ungrateful …”
“What the hell are you talking about? Who is a dog?” Armand stared at him and the veins at his temples bulged, “You’re a dog. Bark for me to hear!”
The manager gave him a frosty look, “You’ve drank too much.”
When he was about to leave after he finished his words, Armand dragged him, “You want to leave after scolding people? What do you think I’m? A coward?” The manager looked at his hands that grabbed his clothes and looked back at him, “Don’t make trouble here, otherwise don’t blame me for not being polite.” “Heh, how are you going to be ungracious to me?” he was just being unforgiving deliberately as he was in an unpleasant mood and was about to suffocate. “You want to hit me? Do it if you dare!” Armand grabbed his collar and growled at him.
The smell of alcohol came and the manager frowned, “You better let go of me, I don’t want to hit you.”
“You fucking hit me if you’ve the guts to do so. Are you a wimp? Don’t bark like a dog …”
The manager couldn’t stand it anymore and called someone over, “Take this crazy person away!”
“You’re the one who is crazy!” he was roaring drunk.
The manager looked at him angrily and squinted, “You want to get hit?”
Armand nodded, “Yes, I want.”
At this moment, he really wanted to fight with someone as he felt like he was dying.
The manager felt what he said was provocation, then he squinted and called the two security guards, “Beat him!”
People used to get drunk and create trouble here, and the security guards were experienced on this matter. Upon hearing the manager’s instructions, the two security guards tried to nab Armand’s arm. Armand did not want to get beat up, his motive was to get into a fight so that he could vent his anger and sadness. Therefore, before the two men tried to touch him, he agilely moved aside, avoided the security guard’s hand, and kicked the man from behind.
The man lost his footing and fell into the manager’s arms.
The manager repulsively pushed him away, “Damn it, you two can’t even handle a single person??”
The man immediately apologized, “Manager, I’m sorry.”
“Cut the crap, beat him up now!” The manager shouted furiously.
At the same time, the other security guard was already wrestling with Armand. Seeing that Armand was entangled, the man tried to choke his neck from behind.
Armand grabbed the man’s arm that was choking his neck. The other man in front of Armand took this chance and waved his fist into Armand’s stomach. Armand had punched the man a few times, and he was badly bruised. Now he had got the chance, he was hitting Armand extremely hard.
Wham!
Armand frowned and grunted a few times. But soon, he found a way to fight back. He bent his arm, and with his elbow, he repeatedly attacked the stomach and chest of the man who was strangling him from behind.
Armand smashed his elbow at the man behind him again and again. After a few times, the man finally loosened his grip. Then, Armand grabbed the man’s hand, twisted it with his backhand, slightly bent his body, and threw the man forward from his own shoulder.
Coincidentally, there was a table in front of him. When the man fell, he hit the table, smashing all the wine bottles and glasses on it to the ground, breaking them into pieces.
The man held his stomach that was hit, grimacing in pain.
Armand’s eye reddened, “Get up!”
The man got up, and the room was filled with a strong alcohol smell.
The two security guards looked at each other and simultaneously lunged towards Armand.
Very soon, the three of them brawled together again. Armand was in a bad mood, and he was just fighting mindlessly. The reason why he was picking on trouble was simply that he wanted to get into a fight to vent out his emotions.
As they used to say, the weak feared the strong, the strong feared those who were not afraid to die.
And Armand was the one who was not afraid of dying.
The two security guards were not Armand’s match.
The manager at the side was anxious. Without thinking much, he snatched a vase on the shelf, removed the flowers and threw them away. Then, he took the vase and smashed it into Armand’s head. Armand was already in a frenzy and his attention was on the two security guards. He didn’t notice what the manager was doing, and when the vase smashed on his head, it instantly broke into pieces. Armand was immediately dazed by the hit. He felt dizzy and vaguely felt that there was a warm liquid oozing out from the back of his head down to his neck.
The manager shouted, “Faster use this opportunity and beat him up!”
The two security guard’s faces were filled with bruises. Now that they had the chance, they were using all their strength to beat Armand up.
Armand fell to the ground, and the two security guards were still punching and kicking him madly.
Loredana accompanied Theresa walked the streets for two hours, and Theresa had calmed down a lot. And because Loredana needed to prepare a meal to welcome Oscar, the two of them went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients before heading back to the villa.
Cormac came back in the evening when she was preparing dinner. After he finished his work in the office, he came back earlier because he knew that Oscar would come over tonight.
He saw Coral wiping the table, and there was a bouquet on it. He came over and asked, “Where is she?”
Coral raised her head and replied, “In the kitchen.”
Cormac nodded. He raised his brows as he looked at the table that was so cleaned it could reflect a person’s image.
In the kitchen, Loredana wore an apron, chopping the vegetables. Lucy stood at the sink beside her, helping her washed the vegetables.
“Can you go out first?” Cormac said to Lucy as he walked towards Loredana.
Lucy responded to him, turned off the water, put down the lotus root in her hand, and went out of the kitchen.
