Chapter 1233 Call The Police
"Apologize to Shawn, or we'll kick your ass."
"Hurry up! If you do what Shawn asked of you, we'll let you go." The crowd started to urge Nick to make
an apology.
Looking slightly embarrassed, Nick fixed his eyes on Cassie, but to his dismay, she turned her face
away to avoid meeting his gaze.
"I'm sorry for my rude behaviors. I mistook her for someone else. I thought she was my friend." Nick
humbly apologized to Shawn, though he felt frustrated inside.
Shawn regarded him as nothing but a clown. Looking away from him, he let out a cold and scornful
laugh.
Nick cast a glance at Cassie, but she turned her head away again. Battling with the surge of
disappointment that was gripping him, he silently headed straight to the door.
As soon as Nick exited the booth, the people inside started to drink and talk again as if nothing had
happened.
"Well, it turns out you're interested in me. So, why did you refuse my invitation? It must hurt. Let me
have a look," Shawn coaxed. He wanted to caress her face, which was slightly bruising up.
Cassie carefully stepped backward, dodging his touch. Staring at him, she pleaded, "I'm begging you.
Please let me go. I need to leave."
"Leave? Where are you going? Are you going to find that man? If that's the case, I can ask my men to
bring him back. I'd like to know who he is," Shawn snorted as he was beckoning the other guys with a
wave of his hand.
Cassie flew into a panic when she heard his words. She moved a step closer and clung to his arm.
With a rattled expression, she implored, "Please don't. I don't know that guy."
"That's my good girl." With an evil grin on his face, he touched her cheek as he said, "You're such a NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
nice girl. I will reward you."
He draped his arm around her shoulder and escorted her to the corner of the booth, pinching her waist
from time to time.
Cassie gnawed on her lower lip helplessly. She was enduring the unpleasant feelings of being taken
advantage of by a disgusting man.
She could still see Nick not far away from where she was when she discreetly looked at the door. 'I
can't displease this man, or else Nick will be taken here.
What if they beat him up? He can't be hurt. He hasn't fully recovered yet. For his sake, I have to be
strong and endure this.
Nothing is more important than his safety, ' she brooded.
Instead of leaving Cassie, Nick hid in a corner near the booth. He could overhear the noise inside,
including the conversation between Cassie and Shawn.
He clenched his fists in anger.
He finally understood why Cassie had pretended not to know him and treated him in such an indifferent
manner.
It turned out that she was only doing this to protect him.
'Cassie is afraid that those people will probably hurt me. I can tell that those guys are from rich families.
I am a nobody, and I can't afford to mess with them. The only way I can do is to hide like this, ' he
mused with a scowl.
However, at the thought of the innocent girl who was being bullied inside the room, he definitely
couldn't ignore her and walk away from her.
'I was too reckless. I saw Cassie get slapped, so I broke in. But my reckless behaviors almost got us in
big trouble. I shouldn't have acted that way. It is a wrong decision, ' he reflected.
'Obviously, that man in the booth likes Cassie. He will not let her leave until he gets his way on her.'
The longer Cassie stayed there, the more dangerous the situation was for her. He was so nervous that
he got beads on his forehead. He wasn't able to think of a good idea to help Cassie out without getting
himself into trouble.
'Oh, geez, what should I do?' he wondered anxiously.
He eventually decided to call the police.
Twenty minutes later, a couple of men in police uniforms barged into the booth where Cassie was.
There was no doubt that those were the real policemen as each of them held a pistol, wore armor with
a stern look.
The people inside were taken aback by the intruders.
'What the hell is going on?
What are the cops doing here?
Did someone violet the law? Who?' Full of doubts, they looked puzzled and surprised.
They glanced at one another trying to find out the criminal. Pissed off by the unexpected visitors, Quill
stood up from his seat.
Quill was from an influential family, and he knew many people working in the police station. Hence, he
wasn't afraid of those police officers. Most importantly, he wanted to keep his image. Most of the people
inside the booth were his friends. No matter how loyal they were to him, he thought it was his
responsibility to have them under his protection since he had invited them here.
Noticing that her boyfriend got up, Gamora knew what he was going to do. Looking worried at him, she
immediately grabbed his arm and whispered, "Quill, please don't..."
Quill shook off her hand and cast her a glare. 'This stupid woman. She is useless and timid, ' he
thought.
He sauntered toward the leader of the police and handed a cigarette to him. "Who is your boss, sir?" he
asked cheekily.
The leader had met lots of people like Quill, so he took the cigarette but kept it unlit. Then gravely, he
countered, "Who is the boss here?"
"Me. What's wrong?" Quill replied candidly. His apprehension vanished immediately because the police
accepted the cigarette he offered.
'A person who can gather so many guys together must be affluent and powerful. I am that kind of
person since I invited them here, ' he thought smugly.
The leader swept his gaze through the crowd. And since no one dared to say anything, he looked back
to Quill and replied, "I see. Come with us."
A bad vibe took over Quill. 'I already bribed him with a cigarette, and they are supposed to leave.
What's going on with them?' he thought.
"Well, sir, what did we do? Why do you want to take me with you?" Quill asked gingerly.
"You know it," the leader replied coldly. All of a sudden, his eyes settled on a girl, who was in Shawn's
arms in a corner. Without wasting time on Quill, he went towards Shawn and stopped in front of him.
"You get up," he instructed.
With his arm around her shoulder, Shawn was forcing Cassie to drink. Hearing the demand from the
police officer, he let go of Cassie and rose from his seat reluctantly. Annoyed, he threw Quill a glance
with contempt.
'He is such a loser. He can't even handle these officers.
Looks like I have to solve this, ' he thought.
"Sir, my father is Rock Li, the president of Crown Group. Who are you?" Shawn began. He revealed his
identity as a threat in anticipation to make the leader take his men to leave. He didn't think the police
officer would dare to displease him after knowing who his father was.
To his astonishment, the leader's face didn't show any hint of surprise. Instead, he pointed at Shawn
and then at Cassie as he asked, "Who is this woman?"
"My girlfriend," Shawn replied calmly.
"No, he is lying. I don't even know him," Cassie cried out. She knew that the only one who could help
her out was those impartial officers.
All she wanted was to get out of there without being raped.
The leader shifted his gaze from Cassie to Shawn. After a brief pause, he prodded, "Do you know this
girl?"
"Sir, I told you we're friends. Why do you keep asking? Do you know that my father..." The leader
gripped his wrist, not giving him a chance to finish his sentence.
