The Day I Walked Away My Empire Began novel Chapter 238

June glared, her face flushed with anger. “Who hurt her? Don’t go blaming me for something I didn’t do, okay?”

“I just… I just—”

“Save it. Get out of here. If I see you again, I’ll knock you flat.” Elio yanked her by the collar and dragged her right out of the room.

“Elio, let me go! This is between me and Lucie, not you! Mind your own damn business, you jerk!” June stumbled as he shoved her out, landing hard on the floor.

Elio didn’t even look back at her. He turned to the bodyguards standing by the door, his face cold. “From now on, she’s not allowed anywhere near this room. She doesn’t get within ten feet of Lucie. Got it?”

“Yes, Mr. Pitts.”

Then he went back inside, leaving June outside, shouting and swearing at the top of her lungs.

“Elio, you piece of shit! You limp-dick loser! Useless! You hear me?”

The bodyguards exchanged looks, totally stunned.

Mr. Pitts… really that bad? He doesn’t look it…

Inside, Elio could still hear June’s rant echoing down the hall. He clenched his fists, fuming. “She’s insane.”

Lucie groaned, rubbing her temples. “What is June yelling about now?”

“She’s just being crazy again. Ignore her. Come on, you need to rest.” Elio gently helped her back to bed, wanting to shield her from June’s nasty insults.

Honestly, June was just spouting nonsense. If Elio was really so hopeless, she wouldn’t still be hung up on him after all these years.

Lucie let out a long, tired sigh and tried to tune out the chaos.

“Listen, Lucie,” Elio said, “June’s got issues. She’s not like everyone else. Just steer clear of her from now on, okay? Don’t get involved with her again.”

Lucie just stared at him, exasperated.
