Chapter 54
Sean didn’t waste a single word or even spare Zac a proper glance. His fist flew straight at Zac’s face with full force, powered by unrestrained
fury.
Zac staggered back from the blow, clutching his face. “What the hell’s your problem?!”
Sean pulled Charlotte behind him, shielding her with his body. His voice was icy, teeth clenched in rage. “Stay the hell away from her.”
Zac, already seething from the punch, exploded when he saw Sean guarding Charlotte like she was his.
He shoved Sean hard. “She’s mine! Don’t you f*cking touch her!”
Sean handed the food container to Charlotte. “Be good. Go wait over there.”
Then he turned and landed a hard kick straigh
into Zac’s side, sending him sprawling to the ground.
Zac scrambled up, battered and humiliated. He was a Gib
heir-
—pampered, admired, treated like royalty his whole life. When had he ever
been humiliated like this?
And this man? He clearly wasn’t just some passerby. One look at the way he shielded Charlotte, and it was obvious that there was something between them.
They hadn’t even been broken up that long, and she already had someone else?
The thought stabbed at his pride, and jealousy twisted inside him like a blade.
Furious, Zac threw a wild punch at Sean’s face.
Sean dodged it cleanly, then landed a brutal blow to Zac’s nose. Blood burst from his face.
Charlotte tried to intervene, but with both men in a blind rage, there was no stopping them. She stepped aside, not wanting to make things
worse.
Blood streamed from Zac’s nose, and he felt every ounce of rage surge straight to his head. Eyes wild, veins bulging, he let out a curse and threw a vicious kick at Sean.
Sean grunted from the impact but retaliated instantly, shoving Zac to the ground. He pinned him down with a knee to the chest, one hand clamped around his throat, the other smashing fist after fist into his face.
Sean had always been the calm, composed heir, groomed to perfection. He hadn’t thrown a punch since that one incident years ago.
But now, for Charlotte, he had lost all restraint.
Zac, taking hit after hit, finally broke free. His face was swollen, eyes bloodshot, veins pulsing with fury. He roared and launched himself back at Sean, fists flying, every punch thrown with reckless, murderous force.
Sean didn’t hold pack either. He fought like he meant to end it, landing blow after blow, just as savage.
Charlotte stood frozen. She had never seen either of them like this–relentless, brutal, totally unhinged. At first, she was too stunned to speak. But as the fight spiraled out of control, fear gripped her.
Someone could get seriously hurt. Or worse.
She tried shouting for them to stop, over and over, but neither man heard her. They were too far gone–caught in a blood–soaked blur of fists and fury.
Sean’s driver rushed forward to break up the fight, but Zac shoved him to the ground.

The security guard at the complex entrance came running at the sound of the commotion. But as soon as he on the ground, he froze. Without a word, he pulled out his phone and called the police and an ambulance.
Rassersby, alarmed by how vicious the brawl looked, quickly veered off course, skirting around the bushes to avoid getting caught in the
