Chapter 49
When Hale rushed to the female washroom that Sophia referred to, the war had already ended by then.
Several female students were sprawled across the floor with messy clothes as they cried their eyes out.
It seemed that they were injured—two of them were bleeding whereas one of them had several cigarette
burn marks across her face.
There was blood all over the washroom floor with the stter on the bathroom door having already dried
up.
Sophia’s hair was in a mess and she was holding onto her skateboard that was smeared with blood. She
still wore a murderous expression, but pointed calmly at the blood on the floor when she saw him. “Get
someone to scrub the floor. I’ll be inappropriate if someone sees this. Also, get these people out of here.”
Hale frowned immediately. I’ve seen girls fight in the past, but I’ve never seen them fight violently. She
was clearly beating them to death!
In Bayside University, the female washrooms were out of bounds to men in general. Furthermore, Hale
was an outsider, but he had his ways. If need be, he would be able toe and go freely even if it was
a female bathhouse, let alone a female washroom in the university
Sophia made her way out of the washroom while Hale was scrubbing the floor and checked her
reflection in the mirror that was located outside. Then, she calmly washed her face andbed her hair.
She wiped her face with a wet tissue before reapplying some lipstick and returned to check on Hale, who
was squatting on the floor to lift the girls up one after another to scan their faces with his phone.
Nowadays, even the underworld had ess to high technological facilities. Hale’s phone had a built-in
software for facial recognition. Therefore, he immediately received information about the girls’ identities
after scanning their faces.
Hale yanked Miss Goth’s hair while scanning her face and his phone immediately revealed her identity.
‘Ruth Bolton, 21 years old, the daughter of the Chief of The Anarchists.’
He frowned deeply and he had a serious expression. This seems rather troublesome.
Sophia’s heart skipped a beat when she saw his expression. Am I in deep trouble? “How powerful are…
The Anarchists?” she asked fearfully.
He answered her in a serious manner, “They are very powerful. In fact, their influence in Bayside City is
second to none. This girl is the daughter of the Chief of The Anarchists and the only child, no less.”
Hale continued with a stern face. “Sigh, this is rather troublesome. However, thankfully, the Boss is
acquainted with the Chief of The Anarchists’ sister-inw’s godfather’s son’s sworn brother. It should be
fine if he pulls some strings there.”
Sophia had a sinking feeling. I didn’t expect things to be so troublesome. It looks like Michael will
have to go all out to get things settled. I vented my frustrations by beating the girls up, but it will be
exhausting for Michael to clean up my mess. I’m starting to regret my decisions. I should have just
escaped.
Seeing that her face was scrunched up with worry, he consoled her hastily, “It’s not that big of a deal. It
depends on whether the Boss is willing to get involved or not. He can make things disappear if he wants
to.” He was hinting to her. You should quickly head home to your hubby and be coquettish with him.
She nodded and walked away with her head bowed, thinking about what to say to Michaelter on the
phone.
After Michael left, she had not phoned him. My first phone call to him now is to ask him to clean up my
mess, sigh…
After Sophia left, Hale ordered someckeys to scrub the washroom floor clean and carry the girls away.
One of theckeys asked, “Mr. Hale, how do we deal with these bad girls?”
Hale snapped, “How else do we deal with them? Phone The Anarchists to get them back! Should I
personally phone 911 for help?!”
Theckey was most probably a newbie because he continuously mumbled while scrubbing the floor,
“Mr. Hale, are The Anarchists very powerful? Is it true that even the Boss’s hands are tied?”
Hale spat angrily. “Didn’t you have any basic knowledge when you joined the gang? The Anarchists are
nothingpared to Mr. Winston! Let alone, the Boss!”
Theckey was even more confused since he started work not too long ago. Hence, he had not seen the
legendary Boss and Mr. Winston. Theckey was holding the broom and he asked dumbly, “In that case,
when Madam asked earlier, why did you—”
“Shut up.”
Hale had been working tirelessly to create chances like that for Michael. The Anarchists is just one of the
lackeyspared to Michael! They are just a bunch ofwless people! Here, they are calling themselves
the underworld… Forget about drawing blood after beating his daughter up; even if she were to die on
the spot, The Anarchists would be the one losing money even.
On the other hand, Sophia was on pins and needles after listening to Hale’s ims. She was afraid that
The Anarchists would find fault with her.
She had learned about the underworld of Bayside City. The situation wasplicated since it was an
entanglement of different forces and theplexity made it impossible to sort through them. The head of
Bayside City’s underworld was called Mr. Winston.
No one knew who he was and they did not have a photograph of him either. However, everybody knew
that he had his people everywhere to spy for him and he was the uncrowned king of the Bayside City’s
underworld. In fact, he was well-connected with thew enforcement too.
The Anarchists seem very powerful too! It looks like I’vended myself in trouble again!
Upon arriving at a decision, she phoned Michael in a hurry.
At that moment, it was alreadyte at night on the other side of the globe. Michael had justpleted
filming a night scene when he received a phone call from Sophia.
“Hello, chica.”
This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
Sophia stiffened when she was greeted by his husky and alluring tone over the phone. She controlled
her tone while replying to him in a girlish manner, “Hubby, how are you abroad? Are you busy with
work?”
He couldn’t help but break into a mysterious grin. However, he remained calm in his response. “It’s not
too bad. I’m not busy with work at all, but I’ve missed you.”
Sophia felt goosebumps all over her body. However, I have no choice but to y along with this pervert.
“Hubby, I miss you too. When are youing home?”
Michael replied, “It might take as long as a year or so or as few as three to five days.”
She would have preferred it if he did not return for the rest of her life. Nevertheless, she had to pretend
that she cared. “It is such a long time. What should I do since I miss you?”
He pondered before answering her tantly, “In that case, I’ll book the earliest flight possible and return
home. What do you think?”
She was shocked and replied hastily. “However, I’m joining the barracks for military training soon. I can’t
see you even if you’re back.”
Michael sounded disappointed, but he was clear headed throughout the conversation. Just a simple sigh
or breath from her was enough to reveal her innermost thoughts to him.
I must have frightened her to death earlier! Hemented without revealing his true thoughts, “Well,
that’s a shame. I’ll definitelye home to see you after your military training.”
There was a pause for several seconds before Sophia finally summoned the courage to reiterate what
happened today with continuous sobs, “Hubby, someone bullied me, sob… sob…”
Michael sounded anxious when he replied to her, as if he was panicking. “What happened?”
Sophia cried when she borated, “This morning, the daughter of the Chief of The Anarchists bullied
me. They trapped me in the washroom and wanted to burn my face with cigarette butts.
They even ripped my clothes to take nude photos of me. Fortunately, I was quick; otherwise, I won’t get
to see you again…”
Michael was furious. “How dare The Anarchists do such a thing! Sophia, don’t be scared. I’ll get
someone to get rid of them now!”
“Hubby, you are the best…”
It seems Michael is more powerful than The Anarchists. Well, at least he sounds as if he’s more powerful
than them.
Sophia fawned over his capabilities for the longest time over the phone call to show her gratitude before
finally hanging up.
After hanging up on the call, she returned to attend her sses while feeling like the burden had been
lifted off her shoulders.
Reality had proved that Michael was indeed much more powerful. After attending two sses, she
learned that the group of girls—the ones who trapped her in the washroom that morning—proved to be a
bad influence by being involved in violent gang fights.
Some of them were admitted into the hospital due to concussions suffered during the fight. The
university would most probably expel the girls immediately since they had past criminal records.
Sophia Edwards’s name was not even mentioned once throughout the incident.
