You Guys Banded Together to Slander Him
The guard was fuming, and he clenched his fists tightly as he almost erupted in anger. At that time, his
security team leader walked over to check on them.
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
Instantly, Leia grumbled, “Gosh, you came on time. Look at this guard of yours! I asked him a question,
but he refused to answer, and he even wanted to hit me! What’s with the quality of this hospital? Take a
look at the people you hired! Have him apologize to me, or I am going to lodge a report!”
The team leader frowned and looked at the guard, who promptly explained the incident.
After that, the team leader gave Leia a look. “I’m sorry, Miss, but our guards do not have a duty to keep a
lookout for your friends. Please also remember that working as a guard is just another job—it is nothing
to be ashamed of. I hope you could show us some respect.”
His logical explanation was met with a fierce stare. “Why would you say that I disrespected you?”
The team leader merely flashed a knowing smile without any intention of explaining.
“You are looking for the group of young people around here, right?” he asked.
She replied, “Yeah. Where are they?”
He asked again, “Is there a guy called Luke among them?”
As soon as Leia heard her boyfriend’s name, her grumpy expression was replaced with a smile. “That’s
right. He’s my hubby.”
“Oh, they are taken away by the police!”
Her eyes widened in shock. “What? How did that happen?”
The leader explained, “Well, they brought weapons into hospital grounds and attempted to attack one of
our doctors, and hence, disrupted public order. So, the hospital called the police, and the group was
arrested.”
Presently, Leia was angered. “Did you call the police? Why would you get them arrested? That must
have been the problem of the doctor. Why else would my hubby attack the doctor for no reason?”
The leader looked speechless at her surprisingly astonishing logic.
Right then, a cold voice sliced through the air from behind. “They did not call the police! I did!”
They turned around to see Matthew standing not far away behind them. In fact, he had been standing
there for quite a while and happened to overhear the entire argument between Leia and the two guards.
When he learned that Luke and his gang were with Leia, he almost choked on anger.
What type of ruffian friends did Leia make?
The man’s presence wasn’t appreciated by her, and as soon as she saw him, her face fell. “It was you?
H-How could you get them arrested?”
“That’s because they used prohibited items—knives, in this case—to attack me!”
Fuming in anger, she bellowed, “Nonsense! Why would they attack you for no reason?”
Hearing her reply, he couldn’t help but scoff. “No reason? Your ‘hubby’ and his gang attempted to flirt
with my wife—your cousin Sasha! When I stopped them, not only did they hit me, they brandished knives
to wound me! I was being merciful for only calling the police on them. Had I known that they were your
friends, I would have broken their legs right there!”
She was caught off guard for a moment before she started yelling at him, “You… Nonsense! How would
my hubby do something like that? He once said to me that I am the only woman he loves and that he
would never take a look at other women. He could not have possibly flirted with her! It must be you! You
guys banded together to slander him! I will not let this slide!”
The leader could not help but chime in, explaining, “Director Larson was right. That dude called Luke
wanted to flirt with Mrs. Larson. All of us witnessed that.”
Leia lost her composure and growled, “I don’t believe you! Matthew Larson, are you trying to slander
Luke so that I suspect him and break up with him?”
With that, Leia stormed away.
