Bryan kept the dagger close to Scarlett's neck in a threatening manner and Lyon frowned visibly,if not he's scared he won't be able to stop Bryan's madness,he would have directly punched this irritating man in the face.

Lyon clenched his phone tightly in his palm "I will leave,what if I drop my phone if that will reassure you that I didn't call anyone" he suggested and Bryan furrowed his eyebrows as if he's in a deep thought.

"Ok,drop your phone and leave" he said "what about Scarlett?" 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.

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? Do you think we would simply arrest someone without evidence? Or are you trying to cover up for him? Are y

Lyon asked quite displeased."The master and the old master were really worried about you," replied Mr Avi cautiously."Worried? This must be one of their faults,when no one knew he's my father,no one kidnapped or tried to kill me" Lyon scoffed."Personally, young master,I think you need more security,I can't let something like this repeat itself," Mr Avi said."I don't want to be watched twenty-four seven please" Lyon brushed that off."They will stay some distance away,they won't affect your daily life" Mr Avi promised and Lyon could only say yes to this.Lyon went straight to his room to test after they decided on how many securities he will be needing.…."Dad is really unreasonable,he did all thi
