Chapter 160
Kaylie tried to chase after the middle-aged man. But he had disappeared in the corridor and walked
into the elevator.
Kaylie slammed her head. "Oops, what have I done?"
Tom was even more speechless to her and said, "Didn't you just act tough? Why did you suddenly go
back on your word?"
"I'm worried about you!" Kaylie rubbed her temples and said with a look of annoyance and worry, "You
don't even know my uncle's character. He's so old-fashioned. He has a bad temper and a strong
grudge. I'm his niece so that I can talk back to him. He won't do anything to me. At most, he'll complain
to my father about me. But you're different. You're an outsider, my so-called boyfriend. He must be very
angry at you for talking back to him like that. With his character, he won't let you go easily..."
At this point, Kaylie patted her face and said in frustration, "Alas, it's all my fault. I should have told you
just now."
Tom said, "So this is what you're worried about. It's okay. Your uncle can't do anything to me."
Kaylie shook her head and said, "No, you don't know my uncle. He is powerful. The most difficult thing
is that his character is so stingy that he will definitely come back to trouble you."
She paced back and forth, looking very worried. After struggling for a while, she gritted her teeth and
said, "Otherwise, I'd better go home and explain to my dad. It will be fine."
"Just now, You are so..." Kaylie wanted to complain about Tom, but she immediately realized that she
was wrong to say that. It was she who asked Tom to come over. So she could only blame her for not
making things clear first.
Seeing that she was very guilty, Tom shook his head and said, "Don't worry. I'll be careful. If anything
goes wrong, I'll hide. After a long time, your uncle must have forgotten me too."
"Well, that's the only way for now." Kaylie said, "Anyway if my uncle wants revenge on you, you have to
tell me immediately."
"Okay."
While Kaylie was taking a shower, Tom came out of the corridor and called Elliot to ask him about
Makai's basic information and strength.
From Elliot's words, Tom learned that this Makai was Colton's biological younger brother. He had a
certain speaking right in business and owned several companies. Most importantly, Makai had a
relationship with Mr. Potter. It was not easy to deal with.
Elliot asked Tom vaguely if he had offended Makai.
Tom certainly wouldn't tell Elliot the truth. He ignored it. Elliot was his subordinate. There was no
reason for him to answer his subordinates. He also warned Elliot not to ask anything he shouldn't ask.
This time, it became interesting. It was actually someone Chou knew.
Kaylie washed herself up and put on a new set of clothes, which was very beautiful. She took off her
men's clothes, and now she was full of femininity.
In fact, with her temperament and figure, she would be easily seen through when dressing up as a
man.
As one of the three gorgeous beauties in H City, Kaylie's beauty was unquestionable. She was much
more beautiful than most of the female stars in the entertainment industry.
When Tom walked with her, it was like a flower stuck in cow dung, which made many men jealous.
At this time, Kaylie was hungry. So, she asked Tom whether he would go to have a midnight snack with
her. Tom was bored by himself, so he agreed.
After taking a shower, Kaylie was in a much better mood. When they walked out together, her eyes NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
would glance at Tom from time to time and peep at him. Once Tom looked at her, she immediately
dodged again, like a frightened rabbit.
Tom was speechless at her behavior. He touched his nose and said, "What's wrong? Why do you look
at me all the time? Is there something dirty on me?"
"No." Kaylie shook her head. But her pretty face turned red for no reason.
Tom rolled his eyes and thought that Kaylie was too abnormal tonight. He preferred Kaylie to be
dressed like a man and act nobly to this Kaylie who would blush inexplicably at his words.
After a while, Kaylie saw that Tom did not respond. She cursed at him to be unromantic in her heart
and said, "By the way, where did you learn martial arts? You are so good."
Speaking of this, her eyes were filled with admiration.
As a woman who had read too many novels, she had a kind of worship for people with high martial arts
that most women did not have. It was the biggest plus when she was choosing her spouse.
Where did he learn martial arts? This question made Tom absent-minded and reminded him of the time
when he was still in the Howards. At that time, he was still very happy and simple. His relationship with
Owen was not so bad.
"I learned from a boxer when I was young." Tom made up an excuse.
Unexpectedly, Kaylie's eyes lit up and she stared straight at Tom, "Can you teach me?"
Tom was stunned and his expression was a little strange, "You want to learn it?"
"Yes!" Kaylie nodded hard. "To tell you the truth, I had a dream of being a heroine since I was a child. I
wanted to become a martial arts master who would rob the rich to help the poor and rebel against the
injustice!"
As she spoke, she made two fist gestures, looking very serious and sacred.
Poof!
Tom was amused by her appearance and said, "What kind of martial arts do you practice? Besides, it's
a legal society now. Beating people is illegal."
"Didn't you hit someone just now? You didn't go to jail either." Kaylie's words made Tom speechless.
After a long time, he said, "It is different."
Kaylie took Tom's arm and shook it, "Please, please, teach me."
Tom was a little dizzy from her shaking and said quickly, "All right, stop shaking. It's not that I don't want
to teach you, but that you've missed the best age to practice martial arts and can't learn it if you want
to. Unless you're willing to train yourself to be muscular like a man. But are you willing to do that?"
"Ah?" Kaylie immediately shuddered and was frightened. Thinking of the figure, she hurriedly shook her
head and said, "Forget it."
They went into a hotpot restaurant and found a seat to sit down. Kaylie had a lot to talk about tonight.
She then asked, "By the way, will your wife be angry at you if you come back so late?"
Tom's expression froze and became much gloomier. He sighed and said, "I'm divorced."
"Ah?!"
Kaylie's reaction was very big. She opened her eyes wide and screamed loudly. The diners around
them looked over. Their anger disappeared immediately when seeing her beautiful face.
It had to be said that beauty was an advantage.
Tom rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Why are you shouting so loudly? Are you happy that I'm
divorced?"
"No, no, no, no. Why should I be happy? I feel sad for you!" Kaylie said so, but the smile on her face
could not be concealed.
Tom suddenly felt regretful. Why did he tell Kaylie? This kind of thing was quite embarrassing.
Seeing that Tom was silent and kept drinking, Kaylie asked carefully, "Why did you divorce your wife?
Did you two have a conflict?"
"Ah!" Suddenly, Kaylie thought of something again. She was shocked and said, "Could it be that Martin
told your wife about the last time we ate together?!"
Kaylie looked guilty.
Tom shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with you. There's something wrong between me
and her."
"Is that so?" Kaylie breathed a sigh of relief. Her eyes rolled. It was hard to know what she was
thinking.
At the same time, Makai returned to the Knights in a huff. Without a word, he rushed straight to Colton's
study and exaggeratively told Colton what had happened just now.
"Brother, I finally understand that Tom was the one who instigated Kaylie to resist marrying Martin by
running away from home this time!" Makai said hatefully.
"Tom?" Colton was slightly surprised. He thought for a while and said, "Why does this name sound a
little familiar as if he had heard it somewhere before?"
