Chapter 1120

He was infuriated and wanted to gather his friends to teach Jackson a lesson. However, before he could say anything, he felt someone yanking him by the collar. Immediately after that, he was dangling in the air.

His face turned pale with fear as he started kicking his feet around. When he lifted his head, he saw a terrifyingly dark face.

“W-Who are you?”

“Apologize to the girl now. If not, I’ll throw you into the sea to feed the fish,” Fabian warned. He was not joking at all.

The boy shrunk his neck and wetted himself from Fabian’s terrifying gaze.

Fabian looked under the boy’s feet, then threw him in front of Lillian. “Apologize.”

“I-I’ll do it! I’ll do it now!” the boy stuttered and apologized to Lillian repeatedly.

Fabian looked at the boy’s friends and they all immediately understood. Then, they ran over and started apologizing to Lillian as well.

Lillian stood behind Jackson. She looked at the boys, then back at Fabian.

“Scram!” Fabian roared at the terrifying children. The boys did not even take back their ball before running away.

Jackson looked at Fabian and thanked him sincerely, “Thanks.”

Fabian softened his expression and walked in front of Lillian. Then, he squatted before her. “Are you okay, Lily?”

He took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears away from Lillian’s eyes.

Lillian took out a piece of candy from her pocket and gave it to Fabian. She was smiling like she was thanking him.

“Lily, as long as I’m here, I won’t let anyone bully you,” promised Fabian.

Jackson looked at Fabian inquisitively. “I’m Lillian’s brother.”

“Oh.” Fabian then asked Jackson with interest, “Are you saying that Lily is only allowed to have one brother? If that’s the case, I don’t want to be her brother. I want to be something else.”

“What?” Jackson asked. There was a look of seriousness on his handsome face.

Madeline stayed in the office for the entire afternoon with Jeremy.

Madeline felt like she needed to give Ryan an explanation regarding the situation now. However, she was worried that Jeremy would be jealous if she met up with Ryan alone. As such, Madeline asked Jeremy for his opinion.

“Jeremy, I have to give Rye an explanation. I want to ask him out to settle the business between us.”

Jeremy did not reject like how he used to. Instead, he grabbed Madeline’s hand and smiled. “I’ll go with you.”

“Okay.” Madeline nodded and called Ryan to ask him out that night.

That night, Madeline and Jeremy went to the restaurant together. Meanwhile, Ryan was already there.

When Madeline was about to sit down, she received a call from Ava. She handed Jeremy her purse and went to answer the call at one side. Before that, she did not forget to peek at the two men. She was worried that they would start fighting.

Ryan looked at Jeremy’s current appearance and felt fortunate for him. “Even though I don’t know what you’ve experienced, I’m happy that you came back safe and sound.”

Jeremy scoffed after he heard that. “I went to the headquarters of Interpol. Ryan, stop pretending. If there’s anyone who doesn’t want me back, it’s you.”
