Billionaire's Match (Khloe and Nick Hunt) novel Chapter 1072

"You think you are someone important? Who are you to tell me what to do?"

Humiliated and enraged, the man swung his fist at the young man—but the latter dodged effortlessly.

The young man was clearly skilled. In one smooth motion, he seized both of the man's wrists, then delivered a sharp kick. The man dropped to his knees instantly.

The commotion was loud enough that Ariana let out a startled cry. Bar staff quickly rushed over and separated them.

The manager came forward to comfort Ariana, apologizing repeatedly before guiding her to a safer area and informing her they would call the police to handle the matter.

Ariana froze for a moment, then immediately asked about the young man.

Although it had been a fight between two parties, he had only gotten involved because he was helping her.

She opened her wallet, intending to compensate him for the trouble.

But the manager quickly waved her off. "Ah, you don't need to worry about him. He's basically a half-owner of this bar."

With that, the manager left.

Just then, Ariana's phone rang. It was Trey.

She glanced at the time—indeed, it was already very late.

But she didn't answer. Instead, she turned her phone off and stayed in the bar a little longer.

Only after the troublemakers were taken away did the young man walk back over.

"I thought you'd already left."

He sat down across from her and casually picked up a drink from the table, finishing it in one go.

Ariana studied him.

Under the dim bar lighting, his features were sharply defined, carved with a distinct, handsome edge. Not bad-looking at all—rather dashing, even somewhat roguishly charming.

"Sir, I don't recall saying I was treating you to a drink."

"If you weren't treating me, why did you stay and wait for me so long?"
