2024-10-29 19:42:56All the way to the airport, Lyon was lost in thought and Mr Avi, being a responsible butler, made sure not to call out to him or disturb him in any way.
Soon they got to the airport and boarded the plane,Lyon immediately whipped out his phone and went to his contact.
He met many missed calls from Scarlett and unconsciously smiled. Scarlett has always tried to be mean but she's a very soft person underneath that mask.
He called her back immediately but then she didn't pick up.Lyon thought she was mad ,she had been calling him for more than a week repeatedly and he's just responding,he would be mad if
someone did that to him as well.
Soon the plane took off and Lyon actually slept off as well,the butler looked at his relaxed face and smiled. Lyon might not have the face to enter the list of the most handsome men in the world but he's really handsome and he looks so much like his father.
Mr Avi picked up his phone and looked at the message sent by his master,he replied at once "yes sir,we are heading back now,the young master refused to see you" he typed then added a rough detail of what happened last night and what amber tried to do as well before turning off
his phone.
…..
They arrived the next day and after resting for about three hours at his penthouse,Lyon dressed up and drove to the school hostel by himself.
He got a lot of attention when he drove in and many couldn't believe their eyes when they saw he was the one who drove that car but many being blind birds sneered and said he must be working as a driver now.
Lyon didn't have the time to pay attention to them and just went into his hostel room,he met Jason drinking alcohol,this surprised him, Jason was never the type "Hey" he called out and Jason looked at him "you are back,are you here to pack your things already?" Jason asked but Lyon shook his head .
"Oh" Jason sounded a little disappointed "why are you drinking?" Lyon asked "jasper went too far this time around,that bastard" Jason said angrily.
"Jasper? What did he do?" Lyon asked "that bastard raped my little sister all because I helpedster all because I helped
you to the hospital" jasper yelled all of a sudden.Your little sister? Who is she?" Lyon frowned deeply " a freshman,her name is Janet,same surname ,why did you ask?" He asked.
"I'm sorry this happened because you helped me" Lyon said " yes,you should be. I shouldn't have helped you,that bastard even posted her nudes on the school website " Jason looked completely broken.
Lyon couldn't take it anymore " I'm sorry,Jasper will pay for everything,I promised " he said and went out of the room angrily,that guy has really gone too far this time around.
He drove to the restaurant he worked, planning to see Scarlett, thank her and also told her he would stop working but he was in for a surprise,the restaurant was half damaged and closed down.
He was surprised,he quickly took out his phone and called Scarlett but no reply again,he was starting to get worked up,what if this was also jasper's doing??
He quickly called Mr Avi "can you help me find out what happened to the Sc.Restaurant?" He asked, sounding anxious "of course young master,I will get back to you in a minute" Mr Avi said
and the phone hung up.
A minute later, Mr Avi called back"the restaurant was destroyed with a bulldozer four days ago, three were injured during this, namely, Miss Scarlett, Mr…" but Lyon cut him off "who did it?" He asked angrily.
" A man paid the bulldozer owner to do it,his name is Bryan Collin,the men he sent to pay were Noah and Cyrus and it was also this Bryan that took Miss Scarlett to the hospital " replied Mr Avi `` damn!" Without another word,Lyon hung up the phone.
It wasn't a minute later before he called again"which hospital was Scarlett taken to?" He asked "Bryan took her home already,his address is…" after getting the address,Lyon drove off.
He soon got to the address and went to the gate immediately,he was stopped by the estate security but he simply told them he's here to see Bryan, Bryan was quite popular here so the security allowed him in especially after seeing his car,he simply guessed he was one of Bryan's many friends.
He drove his car and stopped right in front of Bryan's house,looking at the building with a cold smile on his face. He would have destroyed this house if Scarlett wasn't inside.
He walked to the doorstep and rang the doorbell a little annoyed. The door was opened by Noah who was really shocked to see him,then he sneered.
"What are you doing here?" He asked while Lyon roughly pushed him out of the way and went into the house,his strength surprised Noah and it took him a few sec to realize Lyon was already inside the house.
"Hey!" He yelled angrily and rushed to attack Lyon but he was met with a powerful blow to the face,Lyon looked at him irritatedly.
"Where's Scarlett?" He asked while Lyon groaned in anger while holding his face,his sleep was bursted by the punch just now.
"How dare you?" Noah rushed to attack him again and Lyon met him head-on this time around,he beat Noah until he could hardly move from the place he was.
"What's all the noise about?" Cyrus came out of a room looking kind of annoyed but he stopped the moment he saw Lyon and then looked at Noah who's groaning on the floor.
He couldn't help but take a step back, isn't this the same guy they beat until he was in a daze,how did he beat Noah to such a pitiful state, Cyrus knew Noah's strength surpassed his,so for Noah to be beaten to such a state meant the other side can even beat him to death.
"What's the commotion about? Noah , Cyrus,did someone come to find trouble?" Bryan walked out of another room,half naked, he's shirtless .
"You?" He was surprised to actually see Lyon in his house,he wondered how he knew this place but when he saw Noah,beaten and completely injured and unable to even say a word,he was overcome with a sudden fear.
"What are you doing here?" He asked "where's Scarlett?" Lyon asked back instead and Bryan glared at him.
"I will count one to three ,if you refuse to tell me where Scarlett is,I will beat you up worse than I did to him" he pointed at Noah.
"Who do you think you are?" Bryan was suddenly overcome by anger,how dare this pauper threaten him? He can easily order for him to be killed.
"I asked where she is,I want to make sure she's safe and sound before I destroy this place just like you destroyed her restaurant," Lyon said.
Noah and Cyrus were shocked and even Bryan,how did Lyon find out they were the one behind this? They did everything secretly and behind the scenes as well.
Bryan tried not to show any emotion and yelled instead " how dare you lie so blatantly? How could you say such a thing,I even rushed to save her life after I found out she's trapped inside" Bryan said.
"Of course, because you didn't know she won't escape immediately but tried to alert everyone inside" said Lyon emotionlessly.
"Stop lying! How did you find out? Did someone send you to ruin my reputation? Are you here to defame me? How did you find this place,you were clearly sent by an enemy " he yelled anxiously while glancing at the closed door behind him.
"Sent? Do you think I need anymore to send me here? Or you are just anxious because you don't want Scarlett to know what you did?" Lyon raised an eyebrow.
The door behind Bryan opened and a pale Scarlett walked out ,Lyon was shocked to see her pale face but not the expression he expected,she seemed mad but not at Bryan but at him. What did he do??

He wanted to ask her why she seemed so mad to see him but could only swallow his questions because of her burning gaze. It made him feel uncomfortable all over. He couldn't pinpoint what he did wrong in any way."What are you doing here?" Asked Scarlett " to check on you" Lyon replied reasonably but this seemed to annoy Scarlett even more,he was dumbfounded by this."How did you know I was actually here?" Asked Scarlett a little suspiciously "I found out through my….."he couldn't say he found out through his butler,that will sound a little unbelievable,if his butler knew so much then he can't be from a normal family and she might become even more suspicious for why he worked at a restaurant while his family seem so rich."By someone,he has a very vast connection so he found out what happened when I asked him for it" he replied, deciding against talking about his background for now."Really?" Scarlett raised an eyebrow sarcastically and Lyon frowned,why did he feel like she just didn't

Lyon raised an eyebrow "what about her? " Bryan replied impatiently.A message was sent to Lyon's phone right at this moment,he casually glanced at the phone and smirked."Who's that?" Bryan asked "some crazy dude I guess,I don't know who" Lyon replied casually and Bryan frowned.Bryan suddenly let out a loud scream and Lyon was quick to react,he directly used his hand as a guard around Scarlett's neck while Bryan fell down and fainted.A deep cut formed around Lyon's hand and he silently stared at the

She's scared witless at this rate,how could she say those words to someone whose house can buy her entire family's property over and over again.Lyon pulled her up and said gently " I know,I won't do anything to you as well.

The old man asked the moment he picked up "this must be Mr Jeremy's doing, that's her daughter in the video,she once tried to seduce the young master but he chased her away" replied Avi."Have all their businesses with Jeremy's company canceled immediately,that should serve as a warning for them" the old master said and Mr Avi hung up the phone. He made almost five different calls to the capital.Lyon walked out of the room and checked up on Scarlett, she's already awake and the maid already helped her dress up."Good morning " she quickly stood up the moment Lyon walked in and Lyon smiled "are you feeling better now?"

Lyon waited for almost thirty minutes before two policemen came into the room,they didn't look aggressive in any way and they simply took Jasper without even a word to wither Lyon or Benita."You got the wrong guy, he's the victim,this guy hit him for no reason at all" Benita quickly stepped forward and glanced at Lyon.Lyon looked at him and thought "did she even loved me before,how can she protect a criminal just to make sure I'm miserable?" He chuckled sadly. "No we didn't, he's a rapist unless you can call a rapist the victim" replied another man who walked into the room,also in a uniform."Rapist? Are you mistaken? The only person that can turn out to be a rapist here is this pauper,he acts creepy and even came here to beat my boyfriend because we broke up,my boyfriend is completely innocent" Benita frowned, displeased."Shut up woman,are you teaching us how to do our jobs?

Mr Jeremy didn't say anything for some seconds then smiled "no" he said bluntly and surely. "Really?" Asked the woman and Mr Jeremy nodded,he won't go back on that word,at most he will say the man must be trying to rape his daughter. The woman raised an eyebrow when he nodded and replied "yes" he's quite thick skinned. "But the Norman family said it was indeed their young master and also the room miss Amber went into was also his" the woman said. "Really? Then he must have called her in to do something. And here I was thinking maybe the Norman family had mistaken something. It turned out they were behind this,they set my daughter up,that man looked shabby and when my daughter went into that room,she told me her boyfriend was in there.
