The restaurant has nothing to do with you, so don\u2019t even think about hoping I\u2019ll pay you a dime! That painting is the property of the restaurant. If you don\u2019t return it immediately, I\u2019ll have no choice but to call the police and report you for theft!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Standing beside Lily, Jerome also scoffed. \u201cListen, kid. You\u2019d be wise to cooperate with us. My connections in Aurous Hill are not something you want to test right now. If you refuse to hand over the painting, I\u2019ll have to pay a visit to the public security bureau, and they\u2019ll lock you up without hesitation! Given its value, you could be looking at a minimum of ten years behind bars!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Douglas, overwhelmed with emotion, let the tears stream down his face as he pleaded with Lily, \u201cI\u2019ve always treated you well over the past few years, giving you everything I could! It\u2019s fine if you don\u2019t love me, but why do you have to do this to me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lily let out a chilling laugh. \u201cLove you? Who do you think you are to expect that? Listen closely, fool\u2014I\u2019ve never loved you! You don\u2019t deserve it! I would only fall for a man like Jerome, someone who truly merits my affection!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome smirked sarcastically. \u201cOh, and I should add, we definitely know how to meet each other\u2019s needs in bed!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lily blushed. \u201cOh come on, Jerome! Why bring that up? It\u2019s so embarrassing\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEmbarrassed?\u201d Jerome chuckled. \u201cWhy don\u2019t we close the doors and show this worthless loser how it\u2019s done? Let\u2019s demonstrate how you usually satisfy me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJerome, darling, no! That would be far too embarrassing!\u201d Lily protested.<\/p>\n<p>Unable to endure the spectacle any longer, Douglas hurled a pillow at them while shouting, \u201cYou maniacs! Get out of here!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome swiftly caught the pillow and sneered. \u201cI\u2019m warning you\u2014hand over the painting, or I\u2019ll break your other leg and have you thrown in jail!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, Charlie, who had been listening at the door, strode into the room and shouted, \u201cYou dare to harm my brother? Do you have a death wish?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome turned to face Charlie, locking eyes with him. \u201cWho are you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lily chimed in, \u201cHe\u2019s Charlie Wade, the one who gifted the painting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome erupted in laughter. \u201cAh, just the useless toyboy! You\u2019ve made quite a name for yourself, you know? Everyone in Aurous Hill knows who you are!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome then shot Charlie a cold glare. \u201cI\u2019ll give you three seconds to disappear from my sight. If you do, I\u2019ll pretend you were never here and won\u2019t lay a finger on you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie, irritated, scoffed back. \u201cGet out of your sight? Who do you think you are?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome gritted his teeth. \u201cAre you challenging me, kid?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie responded coolly, \u201cI don\u2019t care who you are, but you\u2019ve crossed the line today. I\u2019ll give you a second chance: apologize to my brother right now, and let him break one of your legs as an apology for what you did to him. If not, you\u2019ll suffer a horrifying fate!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome threw his head back, laughing maniacally, but his expression quickly soured. \u201cWhat did you just say, punk? Me, Jerome, apologizing? Do you want to die?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lily, chuckling, added, \u201cCharlie, are you out of your mind? Challenging my darling Jerome? Do you really want to meet your end that badly?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie shot back coldly, \u201cShut your mouth, you witch!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2026\u201d Lily fumed, turning to Jerome. \u201cJerome, darling! He just called me a witch! Have someone tear him apart!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jerome clenched his jaw again. \u201cJust wait, you pathetic swine! I\u2019ll have someone take care of you right now!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie smiled coldly at Jerome\u2019s threat. \u201cSure, but remember this: if you fail to take me down, both you and this witch will pay dearly for it later.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lily glared with intensity. \u201cEnough of this ridiculous charade.
