My Husband's Betrayal My Brothers' Revenge (Rebekah) novel Chapter 187

Jensen glanced down at him, and the server quickly turned his attention to Candice. "I'm sorry, but you're the ones who need to leave."

Chloe couldn't take it anymore. She stormed forward, jabbing a finger at the server's chest. "What did you say? We paid to book this entire floor, and you're telling *us* to leave?"

The rest of the group started chiming in.

"Is this how you do business? I'll have you know I can get you fired!"

"We're paying customers! We're the ones in charge here!"

The server remained calm and professional. "We have security cameras. We've recorded everything you did to harass this woman. You can either leave now, or I can call the police."

"You—!" Chloe sputtered, but Candice stopped her. If this blew up and the police got involved, the security footage would expose her, too. She didn't care what happened to the others, but she was about to launch her acting career and couldn't afford any scandals.

She whispered in Chloe's ear, "Chloe, if this gets any bigger, our families will hear about it."

Though Chloe was the spoiled baby of her family, her father was obsessed with appearances. If he found out she'd ended up at a police station after a class reunion, he would actually hit her. She shivered at the thought and shot a venomous glare at Rebekah and Jensen. "You two just wait!" she spat, grabbing her purse and storming toward the exit.

Candice walked up to Jensen and Rebekah, her voice low and menacing. "You're just a driver for the Hawthornes, throwing your weight around because you work for them. Sooner or later, I'll make you pay."

Jensen let out a cold laugh. "We'll see who pays first."

His presence was so overpowering that Candice, who had intended to intimidate him, found herself almost breathless under the weight of his stare. She practically fled after Chloe. The rest of the former classmates quickly followed suit, unwilling to get entangled with the police.

"I thought since I'm leaving soon, it might be nice to see my old classmates one last time. Turns out I would have been better off not seeing them at all." Rebekah glanced at the darkening sky. "Have you eaten?"

Jensen shook his head.

"Good. Let me treat you to dinner. And tonight, you're not allowed to worry about the cost."

Jensen's brow furrowed as he studied her expression, searching for any sign that she was putting on a brave face. But there was none. She seemed to have genuinely moved on from the incident, even though just moments ago, she had been on the verge of tears.

He lips softened. "Alright."
