Chapter 956
Shane was ready to leave as soon as he stood up. Just as he opened the door of the private room, Emmanuel quickly grabbed him and said, “What are you doing? I’m just joking. Do you really take it seriously?”
“Of course I’m serious!” Shane exclaimed. “You probably don’t know, if I hadn’t met you today, I would’ve really starved. Since I can earn money by eating wood, why can’t I do so? With money, I can eat other things and even pursue…” He quickly covered his mouth as he almost revealed his true intentions.
However, Emmanuel already knew his intentions. He had just overheard the conversation outside. He knew that Shane often came to this restaurant to catch a glimpse of Red.
“Alright. If you want to earn money, you don’t have to resort to methods that harm your body. Come back with me to Yeringham. I’ll introduce you to a job that can make money, Emmanuel said.
“Really?” Shane’s eyes immediately lit up.
“When have I ever lied to you?” Emmanuel retorted.
Only then did Shane chuckle and come back. He was about to sit down when someone forcefully pushed open the door of the private room.
He turned around. When he saw the scene outside the door, his anger erupted like a volcano explosion. A burly man with a muscular build was grabbing Red by the neck with one hand and dragging her to the doorway.
He showed no mercy!
Red’s face turned red. Her eyes became vacant, clearly indicating that she was feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Behind the man, there were many followers.
The owner of the restaurant and the other people watched this cruel scene unfold before their eyes. They were too afraid to speak up that no one dared to help Red. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“You little brat, you’re not showing respect for me, huh? You even dare to defy my words?”
The man, who was grabbing Red’s neck, was well-built with considerable strength. It was evident that he had some experience in physical training.
“D*mn it! Let go of her!” Shane directly rushed over in anger.
The man immediately pushed Red forcefully, causing her to fall to the ground. Her face turned red as she coughed desperately.
Shane felt so heartbroken watching her condition. He quickly helped her up with intense anger in his eyes.
Emmanuel also stood up immediately, positioning himself before Shane, Red, and the group of men. He asked in a dark face, “What’s going on? Why are you guys, a group of men, bullying a girl?”
Philips Caver glanced at Emmanuel for a moment before smugly saying, “This woman said that someone here can eat wood. I’ll have her come and invite you all out to perform for us. However, this woman dares to disrespect me. She refuses to listen to me-that’s why she’s causing trouble for herself!”
As soon as he finished speaking, one of his followers chimed in from behind, “Boss, look, someone really gnawed that table!”
The crowd outside murmured in astonishment. It seemed that Red hadn’t lied after all.

Meanwhile, Red deeply regretted her actions. Just now, she panicked when she saw that the table was gnawed by someone. Hence, she rushed out to tell the landlady. Little did she know that Philips and his gang, who were dining outside, overheard her, which led to the current situation.
Emmanuel stared at Philips. Without showing any respect for him, he said, “Is it respectable for a man to bully a vulnerable woman like this? Do you deserve our respect?”
“You jerk! What did you say? Say it again if you dare!” Philips exploded in anger. He clenched his fists tightly, making a cracking sound. His aura was quite terrifying!
“Boss, let’s teach him a lesson!”
“That’s right! Show them what we’re capable of. Otherwise, they won’t know how powerful our boss is!”
“Has the Flightstones Gang ever been scared of anyone in Anchortown? If anyone refuses to show us respect, we’ll crush them!”
