Chapter 169 Lucian's Revenge
Lucian, nearly thirty years old, was currently unemployed. He frequented various bars, KTVs, and other entertainment venues. He had over fifty subordinates, and they often engaged in nefarious activities such as extortion and blackmail.
Today, he got drunk at a bar and came out with a few of his subordinates. Seeing Chloe, he was very happy.
They often hang around the bar entrance, picking up drunk women and taking them to hotels. Afterwards, they would record videos for blackmail and make some money. As soon as they saw Larry and Chloe, they knew what was going on.
"He's really lucky, picking up such a top-notch beauty," Lucian said greedily to his subordinates, "Go, stop them for me. Beat the guy up and take the girl."
"Got it." A few of his subordinates were eager to act. The woman was a top-notch beauty, and after Lucian had his way with her, they would get a turn too.
Larry was supporting Chloe and had just arrived at the hotel entrance when a few men came over and stopped him.
One of them whistled, looking at Larry with a playful smile. "Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Leave the beauty and I'll let you go today. Otherwise, I'll beat you up."
Lucian walked over, looking dissatisfied. "Just beat him up."
Larry glanced at the approaching Lucian. "Get lost."
Chloe wasn't completely unconscious and still had some awareness. She opened her eyes slightly and saw Larry standing in front of her. "Honey, what's going on?"
Her words were filled with seduction and charm.
"Honey, I'm here." One of the men smiled and reached out to support Chloe.
Larry kicked the man right in the groin. The man clutched his groin with both hands, letting out a pained scream before collapsing to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
"Get him! Kill him!" Lucian shouted.
A few thugs immediately pulled out knives. One of them lunged at Larry. But before he could get close, Larry grabbed his hand and twisted it. The thug's wrist was instantly broken, and the knife fell to the ground as he let out a pitiful scream.
Larry made quick work of the thugs, and they were instantly instantly knocked to the ground.
Lucian sobered up and took a few steps back.
Larry supported Chloe and walked step by step towards Lucian.
Chloe weakly said, "Honey, don't hit them."
Larry stopped, glaring coldly at Lucian. "Get lost."
"I'll remember you. You're doomed for daring to hit my subordinates. Just wait." Seeing his subordinates lying on the ground, Lucian didn't dare to mess with Larry anymore. He left a few harsh words and quickly walked away.
Lucian only came back after Larry entered the hotel. His subordinates had already gotten up from the ground. "You guys are useless," he cursed.
"Lucian, it's not our fault. Who knew he was so tough?"
Lucian scolded, "Find out who he is. I want to kill him."
Lucian knew a lot of people. It wasn't hard for him to get Larry's hotel records, and soon he found out Larry's name and quickly investigated further.
Before long, he learned about Larry's background. "From Sunset City." He had a rare look of seriousness on his face. Then he went to find his boss.
In a room of a casino, Lucian bowing, respectfully saying, "This is a great money-making opportunity. I've found out that the guy who hit us is Larry Bennett. He’s from Sunset City and is here for a birthday celebration of someone in the Martin family. The Martin family has assets worth billions of dollars."
Ignatius Franklin, in his forties, sat on the sofa. He was a real big shot, owning multiple bars, KTVs, and casinos, and even lending money at high interest rates.
"What do you know about the Martin family?" Ignatius said nonchalantly.
To get to where he was, he was always cautious. He wouldn't mess with people he shouldn't, and those he could mess with, he would ruin completely.
"I've found out. The head of the Martins was once in the military, and several of the second generation are officials. But they hit us, so they have to pay. What can officials do? No matter how powerful they are, can they be more powerful than the people backing you?
"I've found out that Larry's wife, Chloe Lewis, is a top-notch beauty. She was voted the most beautiful woman in Sunset City by the local media."
Lucian kept talking. He had indeed found out a lot. But this was Neon City, and what he found out were just rumors. He didn't know the real inside story. He didn't know that Chloe's status in the Sunset City elite circle was such that no wealthy person dared to offend her.
Ignatius nodded. "You're right. No matter how powerful the officials are, can they be more powerful than my boss? I'll talk to my boss. This time, we'll get at least two billion dollars from the Martin family. I'll offer my boss one billion in exchange for him helping us secretly."
"You're amazing," Lucian began to flatter.
Ignatius glanced at him and said calmly, "Make a big deal out of this. Tomorrow, go to the Martin family and cause trouble. You'll be rewarded once it's done."
"Got it, I'll take care of it right away." Lucian left happily.
In his eyes, the Martin family was finished. A big boss with billions in assets had once offended Ignatius and ended up bankrupt and in prison.
At this moment, Larry was in the hotel. As soon as they got to the hotel, Chloe collapsed on the bed. She was very drunk and vomited all over the bed.
Larry started cleaning up the sheets. After cleaning up, he undressed Chloe and carried her to the bathroom to bathe her.
Soaking in the bathtub, Chloe sobered up a bit. Only her head was above the water. When she looked at Larry, she blushed.
Larry didn't feel awkward at all. He looked at Chloe as if he were admiring a beautiful piece of art.
"Honey, give me the towel. I don't want to soak anymore, it's too hot," Chloe said softly, her blushing face covered in sweat
Larry brought the towel.
Chloe said shyly, "You go out first."
Larry said, "Honey, you're drunk. Let me help you. I'm your husband, not a stranger."
"Okay." Chloe nodded. As she stood up, her perfect figure was fully revealed to Larry. He felt a surge of desire, almost getting a nosebleed.
Chloe tried to step out of the bathtub but lost her balance and fell. Larry quickly caught her, his hands touching her smooth, fair skin.
Chloe shivered, her body stiffening. She felt uncomfortable and embarrassed, even though the person holding her was Larry, her husband.
She forced herself to stay calm. 'Chloe, he is your husband. Physical contact between a married couple is normal,' she kept comforting herself.
Thinking of this, Chloe slowly relaxed. She looked at Larry with a teasing smile. "Honey, do I have a good figure?"
Her question was filled with charm and seduction, and Larry was completely captivated.
