Chapter 653: Just Beat Him Up
Chapter 653: Just Beat Him Up
It was unknown whether it was because Ruben's gaze was too cold, but Nathan Rivers inexplicably shuddered.It was as if he could really do what he said.
He was not afraid of going with Giana Clarke to the police station today.
It would ruin Giana Clarke's reputation and would be of little consequence to him.
However, if he got into a fight with such an unknown kid at the police station, he would lose face.
The romance was the icing on the cake, but it was not good for him if the news of a fight spread.
Moreover, he had an important project to discuss soon.
He adjusted his collar and spat a mouthful of blood, then sneered as he said fiercely, "If you have the guts, come.I will wait."
After saying that, he turned around and got into the car parked at the side.
Seeing that the parties involved did not pursue the matter, the few security guards let go of Ruben.
An old man advised, "Young man, let's talk about it properly.Don't be so irrational.You don't look that old.Are you still a student? What if this goes to the police?"
Ruben was silent for a few seconds before he said, "He came out to my girlfriend’s door in the middle of the night to harass her"
The surrounding security guards widened their eyes at the same time.
"What?"
Someone said angrily, "If I knew that was the case, I wouldn't have stopped you just now! It would have been better just to beat him up!"
"Looking at his presentable appearance, I really didn't expect him to be a wolf in sheep's clothing!"
"Scum!"
"He is worse than a pig or a dog!"
"He is a beast!"
Ruben looked at them.
"If you see him again, please tell me."
Several security guards were indignant.
"Don't worry, young man.We work in shifts here.I will remember his appearance, and tomorrow, I will tell all the staff to keep an eye on him and never let him take another step into this community!"
"Thank you.Sorry for the trouble"
"Don't mention it.It is all right.However, shouldn't we call the police in this situation?"
Ruben said, "Calling the police will affect my girlfriend's work.After tonight, he should be more restrained.When you see him later, just tell me."
A security guard patted him on the shoulder and sighed.
"I understand; this happens in work relations.Your girlfriend can't be easy either.If you meet this kind of bastardly boss, you should look for other jobs while you still have the chance.But as a boyfriend, you are good and responsible.If it were me, I wouldn't have had the courage."
Another security guard added, "Okay, young man, you can leave your girlfriend's safety to us."
Before Ruben left, he left them his phone number and went to the nearby convenience store to buy a few packs of cigarettes for them before leaving.
Sitting in the car, he turned his head and looked at the neighborhood not that far away.
His eyes dimmed.
If not for Giana Clarke's lipstick falling in his car today, he didn't dare to imagine what would have happened later.
Ruben's hand that was holding the steering wheel gradually tightened.
After a long time, he withdrew his gaze and dialed Matthew Gray's number.
He briefly explained the matter over the phone, and only then did he learn who the man was.
Matthew Gray asked tentatively, "You aren't talking about Nathan Rivers, are you?"
"Who is that?"
"He is Giana Clarke's ex-boyfriend.A few years ago, Giana Clarke was just starting to get a little famous.There were many people in the industry chasing after her; Nathan Rivers was one of them.His pursuit was the most fierce that not even any girl could resist it."
The corners of Ruben's lips were slightly pursed.
"And then?"
"Later...A few months after Giana Clarke was with him, Nathan Rivers’ wife found someone to expose them and said Giana Clarke interfered with her family.He and his wife were childhood
sweethearts.They had been married for a long time, but they had always been separated from each other.So in South City, almost no one knew that he was married."
After this matter was exposed, Giana Clarke immediately separated from Nathan Rivers and held a press conference to apologize.
However, Nathan Rivers’ wife did not buy it.
She joined forces with many media companies to suppress Giana Clarke.
During that time, it could be said that the Internet was dark.
She also stayed silent for a period of time, and then three years ago, because a movie she starred in swept away all the awards, Giana Clarke reappeared in the eyes of the public.
Ruben said, "Tonight, the word scum is almost engraved on this person.It is him."
Matthew Gray said, "Nathan Rivers and his wife both have some powerful backgrounds.Otherwise, they wouldn't have suppressed Giana Clarke so badly back then.You didn't do anything to him, did you?"
"Nothing, I just beat him up."
Matthew Gray: "..."
"It isn't much of a problem.Regarding the matter of him looking for Giana Clarke again, I will investigate the situation.I have news to tell you."
"Okay."
Giana Clarke sat on the sofa with her hands on her knees.She was stunned for a long time before she gradually collected her thoughts.She picked up her phone and looked at the time.
More than an hour had passed since Ruben left.
Giana Clarke clicked on his number, and her fingers stopped on the call button.
After hesitating for a while, she exited the page, opened the chatbox, sent him a message asking if he was home. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
There was no reply from the other side, so Giana Clarke put down the phone and entered the bathroom.
After she finished bathing, she went to check her phone.
Ruben replied to her 10 minutes ago, and he had already arrived.
Giana Clarke sat on the sofa, writing.
After typing a long line, she deleted everything.
She fell on the sofa several times.
The post on the Internet was already there, and the haters would use this to attack her.
It was because Ruben did not pay attention to the entertainment industry; otherwise, he would have known.
There was no way to hide it.
What use was there in explaining it? But for some reason, Giana Clarke subconsciously did not want Ruben to know about her past.
Giana Clarke lay on the sofa for a long time, sighed, and picked up her phone again.
Giana Clarke: [You still have to film tomorrow.Go to bed early.Good night.]
After sending the message, she returned to the bedroom and collapsed on the bed, exhausted.
The next morning.
Freya entered Nathan Rivers’ office and looked at him for a while.
She smiled and said, "President Rivers, did you encounter a hooligan when you were on the night road?"
Nathan Rivers’ expression became sour.
"This is a private matter."
Freya smiled, "Sorry, I was presumptuous.Let's continue to talk about cooperation today"
After getting to the point, Nathan Rivers said, "I've asked around about the project on the new coast.It won't be difficult for me to tackle it.In other words, I can do it myself.There is no reason to cooperate with you."
Freya sat opposite him, crossed her legs, and lit a cigarette.
"It is indeed not difficult with your ability, but I have also heard that President Rivers is not very clean when it comes to business.What Jameson hates the most is people like you.Do you think that if he finds out what you have done behind his back, he will let you escape unscathed?"
"For businessmen, which one of their hands and feet is clean? Do you think that Jameson is really so capable that he has secured the position of President of the Proctor Group in just a few years and forced the Proctor family to break his family and die? Is he really that clean?"
