Raymond was stunned and did not dodge. The cup went straight at Raymond’s head and slammed onto his forehead before dropping onto the ground and smashing into pieces.
The intense pain finally brought Raymond to his senses. He stopped staring at Anna and felt liquid dripping down his forehead. When he reached out to touch the liquid, he realized it was his blood.
After hitting her target, Anna scolded furiously, “You jerk! How dare you peep at me? I’ll kill you!”
Raymond’s face and hand were covered with blood, and he regained his senses. He hurriedly explained, “I’m not peeping… I…”
“You’re not peeping? Then are you admitting that you’re trying to harass me? Call the police! We have to call the police and have this pervert arrested!” Anna gnashed her teeth in anger.
Although she grew up abroad, she was not so open-minded. It was frustrating for her that a jerk had looked at her naked. So she wanted to call the police.
When the person in charge heard the ruckus upstairs, she hurried over to take a look. She was in shock when she saw Raymond’s face covered in blood.
“Mr. Saunders… You are… What…”
The person in charge was interrupted by Anna. “This shameless man was peeping at me. Call security to restrain him and send him to the police station. I want to sue him!”
“It’s a misunderstanding!” Raymond hurriedly explained, “I didn’t expect to peep. I’m just…”
Anna would not believe Raymond’s explanation. “He was peeping! If not, why would a man like you fucking show up at a women’s club and open the door without permission? Where’s security? Beat this pervert up for me. I will take full responsibility if anything happens! I have to make him pay!”
“Mr. Saunders, aren’t you a friend of Ms. Taylor? Isn’t this a misunderstanding?” The person in charge tried to remedy the situation.
“How am I his friend? Is this disgusting man fit to be my friend? Fuck!” Anna frowned.
“Hurry and beat up this jerk for me. If not, I will sue your salon as well and make sure that you go out of business!” Anna was so infuriated that she started making threats.
The person in charge was in a predicament. She had thought that Raymond was friends with Anna. Yet looking at the situation now, it seemed that they were more like enemies.
Now that the matter had gotten out of hand, there was no way she could solve it. As she recalled that Anna came with Andrew, she immediately reminded Raymond, “Mr. Saunders, since Ms. Taylor is friends with Mr. Howard, maybe you should call him?”
Raymond didn’t have the nerves to call Andrew. If Andrew were to find out that he looked at his girlfriend while she was naked, Andrew would surely beat him up himself. Even if Andrew didn’t beat him up for the sake of William, they wouldn’t be able to be friends anymore.
On a hand, he couldn’t call Andrew. On the other hand, Anna was not going to let him off easily and even wanted to beat him up. Raymond had never been this humiliated.
Fortunately, he came to his senses after being reminded by the person in charge. He waved for the person in charge and the beautician to leave. “The rest of you may leave first. I will speak to Ms. Taylor alone.”
“I don’t want to speak to you alone! You shameless pervert! You jerk! I have nothing to say to you! Don’t you people dare leave!” It was apparent that Anna was unwilling to stay alone with Raymond.
But the person in charge and the beautician heeded Raymond’s instructions and left.
Raymond wiped the blood from his forehead and looked at Anna, who was in a rage. “Don’t be afraid, Ms. Taylor. I mean no harm. I only want to talk this out with you. But before that, put on your clothes first.”
“Bastard, how can I put on my clothes if you’re still standing there? I’ll fucking smash your head!” Anna then grabbed another cup and threw it at Raymond.
Raymond knew what to do after learning his lesson. He immediately dodged the cup and went outside after closing the door.
Anna was furious, but she was on her own. The person in charge and the staff here did not help her. She had no choice but to hold back her anger and quickly put on her clothes.
After putting on her clothes, Anna got back her confidence. She looked around the room for something she could hold. She vowed to beat the living daylights out of Raymond. After venting her anger, she would then call and complain to Richard to get him to send this jerk to prison.
However, she couldn’t find anything that she could use. Raymond’s voice came from outside, “Ms. Taylor, are you ready?”
Anna grabbed a tray and walked quickly to the door. She then lowered her voice and said, “Okay, come in!”
As the door was pushed open, Anna raised her arms and smashed the tray down. With a clang, her hands went numb. “You scum, I’ll kill you today!”
“I’m sorry, you didn’t hit me,” Raymond said.
Anna fixed her gaze on Raymond and saw that she didn’t hit him but the flower shelf he had in his hands.
“You cunning and shameless bastard!” Anna wanted to hit Raymond again, but Raymond grabbed her hand to stop her. He then pushed Anna into the room and kicked the door close.
“What are you doing? Let go of me!” Although Anna had a bad temper and knew self-defense, she couldn’t compete with an adult man in physique and strength. She was ashamed and angry for being restrained by Raymond, but she couldn’t get away.
“Ms. Taylor, sit down and let me finish.” Raymond dragged Anna to the sofa and forced her to sit down. As he was afraid that Anna would try to attack him again, he held on to Anna’s hands. Anna was agitated. “Let go of me! Fucking let go of my hands right now!”
“I’ll let you go once I’ve made myself clear. Please calm down and listen to me. This is all a misunderstanding. I’ve only heard that you are Andrew’s girlfriend. That’s why I came to take a look at you. I didn’t expect to…”
“Bullshit! You are full of nonsense. Do you think I will believe you?”
“I know you don’t believe me, but what I said is true. Andrew and I are friends. How could I harm my friend’s girlfriend? Even if you are not Andrew’s girlfriend, I am also not a pervert who would want to see you naked. This is truly a misunderstanding.”
When Raymond mentioned Andrew, Anna said with much hatred, “How could someone as kind and righteous like Mr. Howard have a despicable friend like you? Don’t flatter yourself. I would never believe you! I will tell my brother about this and get him to kill you!”
When Raymond saw that Anna didn’t believe he was friends with Andrew, he wanted to mention Valeria. Since Valeria was the one who introduced Anna to Andrew to become his girlfriend, surely she would believe him if she knew his relationship with Valeria?
“I truly am Andrew’s friend. Not only am I a friend of Andrew’s, but I’m also a relative of the Howard family.”
“A relative? Aren’t you Andrew’s friend? Why are you also his relative? Do you like spouting nonsense so much?”
“It’s not that. I’m not Andrew’s relative, but a relative of Andrew’s uncle, William. He is married to my sister.”
