Chapter 228


    This kid''s face, every time he saw it, it felt so familiar to him!


    It was like seeing his younger self through time and space!


    Ian red at him and looked away.


    Lacey asked Ian in a panic, "Ian, did you really cause the power outage here? How did you do it? Is


    thisptop yours? You know how to use aputer at such a young age?"


    Ian silently put hisptop back into his backpack.


    He put on his backpack, went to the stairway, and sat down, waiting for Violette toe out.


    Lacey nced at Elijah, whose eyes were filled with anger.


    If Ian weren''t a kid, he''d probably be in big trouble by now.


    About half an hourter, a bodyguard from outside reported, "Boss, there''s a mysterious person who''s


    been watching us. Should we catch him and ask him some questions?"


    Elijah immediately thought of Mike, and h

    e quickly walked towards the gate.


    Before he even reached the gate, he saw Mike''s blonde hair.


    "Violette! Are you being held captive? If so, just shout, and I''ll call the police!" Mike yelled in Elijah''s


    direction.


    Elijah''s face darkened instantly.


    Mike got beaten upst night, yet still dared to cause trouble!


    "Grab him!" Elijah said, annoyed by his swaggering around.


    Two bodyguards immediately grabbed his arms.


    "What are you doing? I didn''t break anyws; why are you arresting me? Is there now anymore? I''m


    going to call the police! I''m calling the police right now!" Mike shouted as the bodyguards led him to the


    living room.


    Ian looked at Mike, surprise shing in his eyes.


    Mike gave him a wink, then struggled free from the bodyguards'' grip and wandered around the living


    room.


    The two bodyguards followed closely behind him.


    "Elijah, is this your fancy mansion? Did the decorators scam you?" Mike mocked, "It''s not even as good


    as Violette''s house!"


    Elijah sat on the sofa, drinking tea, and ignoring him.


    This guy probably wasn''t here to find Violette but to cause trouble.


    After all, he got beaten upst night, so it was normal for him to be upset.


    Mike pressed a switch on the wall, but the light didn''te on.


    Mike got excited immediately.


    "Your house doesn''t have electricity? No wonder it''s so hot! Elijah, aren''t you hot wearing that huge


    robe? Call your electrician... Oh, I mean your technician, and tell them to fix it ASAP!" Mike''sughter


    was harsh, his smile even more so.


    Elijah''s fingers clenched, his face darkening.


    Just as he was about to teach Mike a lesson, the chandelier above his head suddenly made a "click"


    sound and turned on.


    The electricity was finally back!


    The temperature control system started, and the room quickly became cool andfortable.


    Mike stared at the chandelier for two seconds, then sighed, "Elijah, let''s have apetition! I wasn''t


    convinced when you beat mest night! Let''s have a fair and square match now. If I win, you let me


    punch you!"


    Elijah raised his eyebrows, "And if you lose?"


    "If I lose, I''ll take Ian away!"


    Was this guy out of his mind?


    His bet held no appeal for Elijah, so he wouldn''tpete with him.


    At this point, Ian said coldly, "Elijah! Are you afraid of losing?" His childish voice was filled with disdain


    and mockery.


    Even though he knew it was a provocation, Elijah changed his mind.


    He asked Mike, "What do wepete in?"


    "I see there''s a tennis court outside. Let''s y tennis."


    Elijah: "Fine."


    ...


    Elijah changed his clothes and went to the tennis court with Mike.


    Everyone, except for the gatekeeper and Lacey, went to the tennis court to cheer for Elijah!


    Rita sneaked into the vi''s living room, bending her waist.
