Chapter 1055

"Anyway, the woman I fancy has to listen to me!" Eldridge said with a completely rogue attitude, which made everyone a bit annoyed.

Eldridge was just looking for trouble!

Elizabeth was furious.

She came to have some fun, but ended up encountering such a scoundrel.

She shook her wrist, feeling an urge to take action.

Eldridge hadn't noticed the danger gradually approaching.

Alexander's phone rang.

Alexander glanced at Eldridge, pressed the answer button, and said calmly, "Let him in."

"Yes."

The call ended.

Eldridge frowned, very displeased with Alexander's mysterious demeanor.

Eldridge jabbed a finger at Alexander and shouted, "Quit with the mysterious act! You think I'm supposed to be scared of you or something?"

Alexander let out a cold laugh. Eldridge indeed wasn't afraid of him.

But.

"Eldridge, what the hell are you doing now?"

A middle-aged man's angry voice cut through the room.

While everyone was wondering who this person was, only Eldridge felt a chill down his spine, his confidence instantly evaporating.

When Eldridge turned his head, the look on his face said it all.

His friends exchanged panicked glances. "Uh, Eldridge, you're on your own. We're out of here!"

With that, these friends immediately scattered in all directions!

They scrambled to leave, but were quickly blocked by the security detail flanking the newcomer.

The newcomer said sternly, "Where do you think you're going? You spoiled little punks, egging him on instead of reining him in! Do you have any idea what kind of mess you've created?"

Elizabeth and Lila exchanged glances and began to scrutinize the newcomer.

He was a man in his fifties, with neatly groomed hair and an air of integrity. He stood straight and looked very spirited.

As Elizabeth looked him up and down, she noticed that he bore some resemblance to Eldridge.

Someone who could make Eldridge shrink like that could only be...

"Dad, I..." Eldridge began.

Whispers erupted around them. "Holy shit, they called in the mayor. Eldridge is screwed."

"Eldridge usually causes a lot of trouble, and Mayor Bynum never intervenes. This time he's really done for!"

Elizabeth couldn't help but laugh.

Alexander was ruthless; he knew exactly which buttons to push. Calling Holden was the perfect move. 

Otherwise, even if they managed to escape tonight, Eldridge's stubborn pride would just bring him back to cause more trouble another day.

As Eldridge approached his father, about to explain, Holden slapped him hard across the face and barked, "You idiot! On your knees, now!"

Alexander raised an eyebrow, casually brushing his fingertips together, looking completely unfazed and above it all.

Kieran smirked to himself. Damn, Alexander's power play was impressive.

Eldridge didn't dare disobey.

Alexander could even call Holden over, showing how capable Alexander was!

Eldridge had underestimated him!

He'd definitely picked the wrong target this time.

Eldridge glared at Alexander, his eyes burning with humiliation and rage.

Even Holden, standing before Alexander, slightly inclined his head and said respectfully, "Mr. Tudor, I apologize for my son's behavior!"
