Felix, seemingly unfazed by the cream covering Laure gently cradled her in his arms, his hand softly stroking her back.
Leaning against him, Lauren clutched at Felix’s suit jacket, as if grasping a lifeline. At that moment, everyone in the room froze, struck by Felix’s commanding presence.
The man’s aura was overpowering. Dressed in a sharp lack suit that accentuated his tall, imposing figure, his high nose and tightly pursed lips éxuded an air of authority that rendered the onlookers speechless.
It took a moment for them to regain their composure.
“Who the heck are you? Attacking our classmate, are you looking for trouble?”
“Sure, he looks decent, but he’s clearly got no manners. Do you even know where your are? This is the Lavette Grand Hotel’s VIP suite. Callum is highly value by the CEO of Brooker Corporation. You mess with us, you’re messing with Mr. Brooker.”

“Dude, are you friends with Lauren? She’s a real piece of work, seducing other men even though she’s a convict. For your own good, because you’re handsome. I’d stay away from that bad news.”
People hurled accusations and taunts at Felix.
Callum stood by, his earlier smug expression wiped clean, incredulous at the sight of Lauren embraced by Felix, his mind going blank.
He opened his mouth to say something but was drowned out by the crowd, forced to just stand there, sweating and shifting uneasily.
Felix’s icy gaze swept across everyone in the room, sending shivers down their spines.
Finally, his eyes fixed on Callum. “You’re Callum, the one they’ve been talking about?”
Felix’s voice was deep and chilling
A bad feeling surged in Callum, his legs trembling, yet he managed a sycophantic smile. “Yes, I am. Mr. Brooker, what brings you here?”
Felix’s glare was piercing. “I reserved this suite. Why do you think I’m here?”
The crowd exchanged uneasy glances, their faces changing from arrogance to shock and then to deep fear.
So, the impeccably dressed man before us is the CEO of Brooker Corporation. Seeing how protective he is of Lauren, could he really be her fiance?
The men’s demeanor immediately turned deferential, Practically bowing, their faces plastered with obsequious smiles; the women’s eyes were filled with admiration, their gazes greedy, contemplating how to forge a connection with this wealthy man.
Taylor stared at Felix, unable to look away.
She quickly dropped her aggressive front, trying to appear soft and appealing, saying in a sweet voice, “Mr. Brooker, the woman in your arms was flirting with Callum. We couldn’t stand it and just had to teach her a

His eyes remained on Callum, pressing on, “I specifically reserved this suite for my friend’s birthday. Who allowed you in? And the cake the hotel manager prepared for my friend who gave you permission to ruin it?”
Callum, trembling with fear, stammered, “Mr. Brooker … I didn’t know you had reserved this suite for a birthday. If I had known. I never would have come in.”
“It’s their fault; I came here because they were in Suite 1, Callum said, pointing at his classmates.
Seeing Callum throw them under the bus, his classmates couldn’t care less about loyalty; the CEO of Brooker Corporation was not someone they could afford to offend.
“It’s not our fault; you told us to come to Suite 101.
“Cut it off, I said Suite 107. You got it wrong, why blame me?”
“You’re the one who’s been using Mr. Brooker’s name to show off.
Felix, tired of their squabbling, coldly stated, “Callum, the Sales Manager, right? You’re fired.”
Callum’s eyes bulged in shock.
“Mr. Brooker, please, it wasn’t on purpose. Give me another chance.”
“A chance? Did you give my fiancee a chance to explain
Everyone’s face turned red at his words.
Felix turned to Gael standing behind him, “Order’it so that no company working with Brooker Corporation hires Callum. Anyone who dares employ fam will be making an enemy of me.”
Callum’s knees buckled, realizing his career was over.
