Love at the Wrong Table by Emmanuel Lowe

Chapter 1980 The Beauty Who Captivated a Nation

Chapter 1989

24618I

On the

outskirts of Eldoria, nestled deep in the woods, stood a military base.

A flashy pink luxury car pulled up in front of it, and Stella Quill hurried out from

the vehicle. She had a mission on her mind.

The son of the Silver Fox Military’s commander, a spoiled brat named Hugbert

Gray, was once her classmate. He had always been infatuated with Stella,

the class beauty.

Unfortunately for him, she never thought much of him. But today, after being

publicly humiliated by Emmanuel, who had slapped her across the face, she

couldn’t let it slide.

Not even her grandfather had dared to confront him the day before, so she

knew if she wanted revenge, her only option was to seek the help of the Silver

Fox Military.

As long as Hugbert saw the tear–streaked face of the woman he adored,

with her cheeks flushed red from the slap, rage boiled up inside him.

“That sc*mbag! How dare he hit a woman? What a lowlife

he spot

“That’s right, Lieutenant Commander Gray,” Stella whimpered, feigning

weakness as she worked her charm. “You have to stand up for me!”

She was pulling every trick in the book to win his sympathy, and it was

working.

Although Hugbert was a bit of a coward, he was still a man. With a cocky grin,

he replied, “Don’t worry, Stella! I’ll make sure he regrets ever laying a hand on

you. Though… if you want me to mobilize the troops, I might need a little, shall

we say, motivation…”

His eyes drifted to her chest with a suggestive leer.

Stella knew exactly what he wanted. My fate’s already sealed–I’m stuck

marrying that fat slob from the Tanner family. So why not get something out

of this mess first? “Oh, Hugbert, I know what you’re after. How about I give you

a little reward to pump you up?”

Hugbert might be a fool, but at least he looks better than that Tonnor pige if

I’m going to be trapped, I might as we have some fun with someone else

before the wedding

No way am Hetting that disgusting slobbe the only one.

But just as she was about to seal the deal, Hugbert threw another wrench

into the mix. “Stella, while I may be the Commander’s son, I don’t actually

control the troops. But don’t worry! My buddy Gerald Cook and I are tight.

After the three of us have a little fun together, fill get him to bring in the

soldiers and crush that guy for your

“Three…?” Stella’s cheeks flushed.

“What? Don’t worry, if you’re not into it, we can take turns,” he said with a

sleazy grin.

“No, Hugbert, darling, I’m just excited! Let’s not waste any more time!” she

replied, playing along eagerly.

Though Gerald was a wild card, Stella had always admired his muscular

physique. He was far better built than Hugbert, and that excited her even

more.

As soon as she said the words, Hu cursed in his mind.

As for Hugo, he couldn’t help but sneer in his mind: Another one of these fake.

girls! Good thing I didn’t marry her back then–she’d have been cheating on

me left and right!

Gerald was just as surprised to hear Stella was down for a threesome, but he

wasn’t one to refuse such an offer. Afterward, as they finished up, Gerald

turned to Hugbert and said, “By the way, Hugbert, that Emmanuel guy isn’t

someone to mess with. Let me tell you something, my master, Robert Rodrick,

is his apprentice.”

“What?! You’ve got to be kidding!”

Hugbert’s jaw dropped as he stared at Gerald in disbelief. If you had told me

this sooner, I wouldn’t have agreed to anything! Now I can’t just back out after

we’ve had our fun!

Stella, ever the manipulator, quickly took control of the situation. “Well, if

you’re scared of him, I guess I’m just out of luck. I wouldn’t want you to get

hurt because of me.”

She knew exactly what she was doing. If she turned on them now, calling

them out for their betrayal, they would be even less likely to help her.

Instead, she played the long game, pulling back to push forward.

Sure enough, Hugbert’s face turned bright red with rage. “Nonsense! I don’t

care who that guy is. Here in Eldoria, the Silver Fox Military reigns supreme.

He’ll bow to me, no matter who he is! I swear I’ll make him crawl and

apologize to you!”

“Stella, now that we’ve gotten… closer, I promise I’ll make him pay. He’ll be on

his knees, begging for your forgiveness!

“Really?” Stella quickly threw herself into his arms, playing the innocent

damsel. Tknew it, Hugbert! You’re my hero!”

fve got a new plan–if Hugbert wants to marry me, even the Tanner family

wouldn’t dare push me too far.

Sure, Hugbert’s a bit of a loser, but at least he looks average. Way easier to

accept than that fat guy from the Tanner family!

Hugbert, though not planning to marry a woman like Stella, hadn’t gotten

tired of her yet. He pulled her into his arms, hands wandering as he said, “Of

course, Stella! You’re my darling. I’ll always treat you right!”

Gerald couldn’t stand to watch any longer. After all, he’d already gifted Stella

several billion in presents. Whatever Hugbert wanted to do with her was his

business. Gerald only listened to the commander.

However, just as he opened the door, a subordinate barged in, catching an

eyeful of the embarrassing scene.

Two men and one woman. good grief!

“Do you have a death wish? Barging in without knockingg

Hugbert erupted in rage.

Though it was Gerald who opened the door, Hugbert didn’t care yell at hims

so he unleashed his anger on the poor subordinate

“My apologies, Lieutenant Commander Gray! I came to report to Lieutenant

Colonel Cook!”

The subordinate was visibly anxious.

Gerald frowned. “What’s so urgent that you need to interrupt now?”

the subordinate reported.

“What? Who’s got the guts to do that?”

Hugbert was completely astonished. This was the Silver Fox Military base-

well–armed, with soldiers in peak condition, and the most advanced

weaponry around.

He could boast that even Death himself wouldn’t dare come looking for

trouble here. Whoever was bold enough to storm the place must have a

death wish.

計

“Lieutenant Commander Gray, the intruder says his name is Emmanuel Lowe.

He’s here to see you!”

Emmanuel Lowe?

Hearing that name, Hugbert surprisingly calmed down.

Stella’s eyes lit up with anticipation. I was worried something might go wrong,

like Hugbert not bringing his troops into the city to help me get revenge. But

who would’ve thought Emmanuel would walk right into the trap on his own?

Perfect!

“How dare he!” Hugbert scoffed. “Get the men ready! I’ll meet him myself. Let’s

see if he’s as tough as he thinks he is!”

“Yes, Lieutenant Commander Gray!”

The subordinate left immediately. Afterward, Hugbert sneered and made his

way outside the base.

As soon as he stepped out of the building, he saw Emmanuel and Sage

breaking through. Several soldiers from the Silver Fox Military lay on the

ground in front of them, clearly taken down before they even had a chance

to fire a shot.

“How arrogance!”

Seeing the two men, Hugbert furiously gritted his teeth. This was the first time

anyone had dared to bring a fight to the doorstep of the Silver Fox Military.

Stella clung tightly to his arm, her voice dripping with venom. “Hugbert, that

low–life is the one who hit me! You better make sure he pays for it tonight!”

“Don’t worry!” Hugbert shouted.

He was eager to show off his heroism in front of his beauty. He turned toward

Emmanuel and roared, “You beat up my woman, and now you’ve got the

nerve to show up at my base? Ha! You must be here to throw your life away!”

“No!”

Emmanuel responded with a dead–serious tone, “We’re not here to die, nor

are we here over trivial matters. But if you don’t want your entire military

wiped out, you better get your commander out here to face me right now!”

What the…?!

The moment his words dropped, everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief.

They had lived long enough, but never in their lives had they seen someone

talk this big with such a straight face.

“Stop wasting time with them, Hugbert!” Stella shrieked.

Her fury was boiling over. “Order the Silver Fox Military to shoot them down!

Turn them into riddled corpses!”

Hugbert didn’t hesitate. Though he didnt have the authority to lead soldiers

into battle, he still had the hose’s defende under his control

Without missing a beat, he slammed his hand on the bution

In the next instant, a piercing alarm rang throughout the entire base

Within moments, a squad of the base’s defense force stormed out, guns in

hand, ready for action.
