“Bobby, put the knife down please, for my sake, a calm voice interrupted just as Bobby was about to strike.
Bobby turned with a cold smirk, ready to dismiss whoever dared interfere. However, his demeanor instantly changed when he saw the elegant Harvey approaching.
“Mr. Weller, what brings you here?” Bobby asked with a forced smile.
Harvey, with Christina by his side, walked over gracefully. They looked like a prince and princess, drawing everyone’s attention.
“Dylan and are great friends. I’m vouching for this man today, and I’ll talk to Dylan personally later,” Harvey stated with a smile as if it were a trivial matter. He glanced at Andrew, his eyes flashing mysteriously.
Bobby hesitated. “But Mr. Weller, this guy hurt over a dozen of Mr. Garner’s men yesterday. He really disrespected the boss…”
Harvey calmly replied, “I said I’d handle it. Don’t worry about Dylan; I’ll explain everything to him. Besides, I heard your men tried to harm my fiancée yesterday. I haven’t even addressed that yet!”
Bobby’s expression changed. The Weller family was powerful in Jayrodale, and Harvey was no small player.
“I’m willing to overlook yesterday’s misunderstanding, but you need to do me this favor and let this man go,” Harvey insisted firmly.

“How pathetic! Needing Mr. Weller to save his life. What a loser!”
“Thankfully, he handed Ms. Stevens over to Mr. Weller. Otherwise, he’d be dead meat without Mr. Weller’s intervention!”
“Mr. Weller is such a gentleman. Only he deserves Ms. Stevens. This freeloader isn’t even fit to shine Mr. Weller’s shoes!”

Bobby laughed. “So, you’re Ms. Stevens‘ former kept man. You should be on your knees thanking Mr. Weller. Without him, you’d be a corpse by now!”
Francesca’s face burned with embarrassment. She felt ashamed to be sitting with Andrew. How could he endure the humiliation of being saved by his rival?
“Andrew, thank Harvey,” Christina spoke up, her expression complex as she looked at Andrew.
Andrew replied coldly, “Why should I thank him?
The crowd immediately turned hostile, glaring at Andrew in anger.
“Why thank Mr. Weller? Are you stupid or something, kid?”
