Chapter 441 Baxter Got Beaten
Baxter was shocked.
Freya couldn’t help but smirk, while Poppy, Mikael’s girlfriend, was more straightforward. Although she and Hannah were friends, it wasn’t significant enough for her to fear offending Baxter and angering.
Hannah.
Seeing Baxter’s lack of response, Poppy continued to ask with a smile, “Is it someone from Vroria? Or someone from Hartterre’s Smith family?”
Hannah furrowed her brow.
Poppy was surprised. She continued, “It couldn’t be someone from Capitael, right? The Smith Consortium? Only their family can easily come up with two billion to let their children play around.”
Hannah felt the anger rising within her, but when she looked at Poppy’s innocent expression, she began to doubt herself.
“Bax is not from any of those families.” Hannah’s face turned unpleasant. “We are preparing for our wedding, and the bar will be his main business after that. With Bax’s talent, his achievements won’t be
in the future.”
After speaking, she looked at Mikael and said, “Mick, maybe Bax can help you make Nightshade even more famous.”
He smiled faintly and said, “Perhaps
Everyone present could see Baxter’s cunning and greedy appearance, except for Hannah, who remained oblivious.
They continued chatting for a while. This time, Baxter didn’t interrupt anymore. He probably felt embarrassed by the question Poppy had asked him earlier.
After a short while, he stood up and said. “I’ll go to the restroom. You guys continue chatting.”
Just as Hannah was about to stand up, Freya, sitting beside her, held her back and said, “Enough. Even if you two must stick together all day, you guys don’t have to be together in the restroom. You haven’t spent. enough time with us yet.”
Hannah sat back down.
Chris was already very displeased with Baxter at this point!
In the past, if he saw someone like this, he wouldn’t even spare them a glance, let alone let them slander his brother in front of him.
He knew very well what Mikael had endured all these years.
How dare someone like Baxter, a small hooligan, sit in front of him and claim that he would help Mikael make the bar’s reputation even more famous.
He was taking advantage and still expected others to be grateful. Did he think he was a helpless kitten?
Chris glanced at Hannah sitting across from him and saw her whispering to Freya. He quietly stood up and walked toward the door.
Mikael frowned and stood up, ready to follow, but was held back by Poppy.
Poppy whispered, “Don’t go now. If you go again, it will be too obvious. We need to teach this man a lesson.”
The atmosphere in the private room was pleasant, and Regina and Hannah seemed to be getting along.
When Regina first entered the room, she mocked Baxter in front of Chris, saying he was not worthy of being friends with Chris. Yet now, Regina seemed to be interested in him.
Regina talked about Hannah and Baxter’s upcoming wedding and their plans after.
Freya’s face turned slightly cold when she heard Regina ask Hannah how many children Hannah planned.
to have after that.
Regina was already here at first. She clearly knew the purpose of the gathering, and it was a sensitive topic.
The seven of them were chatting when a loud noise suddenly sounded outside the private room.
The people in the room immediately turned their heads and saw the door being forcefully pushed open, and Baxter ran in, covering his face.
After entering the room, he quickly approached the group and pulled Hannah, sitting on the sofa, to stand up before he yanked her away.
Hannah almost fell due to being pulled so abruptly.
Radley’s eyes turned cold, and he immediately stood up and asked, “What are you doing?”
Baxter turned his head to look at Radley, releasing his grip.
The blood on the corner of his mouth frightened Hannah, who exclaimed, “Bax, what happened to you?
His face turned pale, and he looked at Hannah, wanting to scold her.
However, thinking about the amount of money Hannah had, he forced himself to calm down and said, “Hannah, I genuinely care about you. You know that, right?”
She immediately nodded. “I know.”
“I told you before I came here today that this was a trap, but you didn’t believe me and insisted on making me believe in your brother and sister-in-law. Yet, look at what’s happening now.”“
Hannah’s voice trembled. “What do you mean?”
Then, she saw Chris walking in from outside.
“He’s the one who hit you?”
Baxter trembled at the sight of Chris. Yet, he still held onto Hannah and walked toward the exit.
“Who else but him? If he didn’t have your brother’s consent, would he dare to lay a hand on me?”
Hannah turned to look at Radley and remembered Freya suggested today’s gathering. She furrowed her brow and looked at her.

“Have you all been deceiving me? Do you all have a problem with Bax?”
Freya innocently stood up from the sofa and looked at Chris with confusion. “Chris, did you have a dispute with Baxter?”
Chris shook his head and stared at Baxter with a malicious smile. “Hannah, this has nothing to do with. Radley. I simply don’t like that guy. He’s broke yet has big ambitions, thinking he can scam two billion. from us. Baxter, aren’t you afraid of deceiving others and ending up with nothing?”
Chris had encountered different types of people in his years of running a club.
His eyes emitted a cold, murderous aura when he got angry, causing Baxter to shudder.
However, he didn’t let go of Hannah’s hand.
Hannah’s anger soared, and she immediately stepped forward, gritting her teeth and saying, “Chris, you. are not my friend anymore! I’m warning you, this is my family’s business. It has nothing to do with you.”
He chuckled, “Hannah, I’ve watched you grow up. I’ve been your brother for so many years, and now, you treat me like this just because of a man you’ve only known for a short time?”
Hannah coldly glanced at Freya and Radley beside her
“I have only one question for you. Did you hear something from my brother and Freya that made you hit
Bax?”
Chris put his hands in his pockets, and his icy gaze swept over Baxter like a sharp blade. “I’ve already said it. I simply don’t like him.”
“Fine! I won’t come to your club anymore!” Hannah grabbed Baxter’s hand and walked toward the exit.
Chris didn’t move. He just watched their backs and shouted, “Baxter! I don’t care if she acknowledges me, but I acknowledge her. I’ll chop off your hand if you dare lay a finger on her. I’ll turn you into a human stick if you sleep with her. Remember that!”
Chris’ voice was cold and filled with a strong sense of hostility.
Baxter’s body trembled.
The door of the private room slammed shut!
The room fell silent, and Regina frowned and ran over to Chris.
“Chris, this isn’t good. Isn’t the plan to keep them under control?”
Freya poured herself a drink, smirked, and said, “It’s fine like this. We have to use both gentle and forceful tactics. If Mick plays the good cop, then Chris has to play the bad cop. When Baxter tries to make a move on Hannah, he’ll have something to fear.”
However, Regina quickly changed her mind.
