The Lethal Love Hunter by J.M.J ( Robin Bruce )
Chapter 223

Chapter 223 The Necklace 

Inside the Empyrean Hall of the Hallcester Hotel, the silence was suffocating. 

Roxic, the esteemed daughter of the leader of the Hashville Martial Arts Union, actually uttered such rude and unreasonable words! 

After all, Ms. Thompson was a guest invited by the Hashville Arts Union.

As the host of this celebration, Roxie’s actions really made people sigh! 

It seemed that Ms. Mellor’s upbringing was up for debate. 

Glen and Domingo also exchanged confused glances, nervously looking at Crystal, then at Roxie. 

Someone intended to step forward to persuade Roxie to calm down. 

However, they were well aware of Ms. Mellor’s temper. 

No one could stop her from doing what she wanted to do. 

On ordinary days, Delbert, the old man, used to spoil him. 

Back then, the daughter of a disciple of Mr. Delbert from the Hashville Martial Arts Union. 

Of a similar age to Roxie, and both were in the same school. 

This girl was very beautiful, especially those eyes, they were like beautiful little elves. 

The girl was kind and exceptionally well–behaved.

All of her classmates and teachers in the school really liked her. 

She was often complimented on many occasions, especially for her beautiful eyes. 

This made Roxie, who was in the same class, extremely jealous. 

One day after school, she tricked the girl into a secluded place. 

The children of the regulatory elders, who often hovered around her within the Hashville Martial Arts Union, gouged out the girl’s eyes. 

Upon finding out, the girl’s father was almost driven mad with anger. 

Given that Roxie was the daughter of the leader, they had no choice but to argue with Delbert and Sergio. 

Not only did Delbert not reprimand Roxie, but he also had Sergio severely beat up this disciple. 

And told him that as long as his granddaughter liked it, nothing else mattered! 

Afterwards, there was no news from this disciple and his daughter. 

What kind of result, was unknown. 

After that, no one from the Hashville Martial Arts Union dared to offend Ms. Mellor. 

Over the years, there have been many such incidents. 

No matter how severe the consequences were, Delbert and Sergio would step in to quell them. 

In their view, the world was originally a world of the strong, where the weak had no say. 

The Necklace 

As long as it could make Roxie happy, nothing else mattered. 

Domingo, worried that Roxie might do something extreme, hurriedly said, “Ms. Thompson, you… you should give the necklace to Roxic…” 

Crystal said coldly, “This was given to me by Robin, no one can take it away!” 

Roxie was about to lose her temper when a magnetic voice came from behind her, “Ms. Mellor, what’s going on?” 

Everyone turned around in unison, following the sound.  Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Rudy was gracefully walking down from the second floor towards this side. 

The ferocity in Roxie’s eyes had slightly subsided. 

Turning back, he smiled and nodded at Rudy. “Hello, Mr. Rudy.” 

“Ms. Mellor, has something unpleasant happened?” Rudy asked, looking politely at Crystal and then at Roxie. 

Roxie pointed at the necklace around Crystal’s neck and said 

nonchalantly, “That necklace is mine! I asked her to give it back to me, but she refused. Mr. Rudy, tell me, how can there be such a scoundrel in this world!” 

Rudy slightly furrowed his brow, “This is Ms. Thompson, right? Let me give you a piece of advice, since the necklace belongs to Ms. Mellor, you should return it to her. It’s just a necklace, there’s no need to cause a rift over it.” 

Crystal was taken aback, “Mr. Rudy, you must be mistaken. This necklace was a gift from my friend Robin, who spent five billion at your Barrett family’s auction to get it for me.”

“How did it become hers now? It’s really ridiculous!” 

Rudy shook his head with a smile, “Ms. Thompson, what you’re saying means nothing to me.” 

“All I knew was that if Ms. Mellor said the necklace was hers, then it was hers!” 

No sooner had Rudy’s words fallen than a low gasp echoed through the Empyrean Hall. 

“Mr. Rudy actually said these words? It really was too surprising.” 

“The Barrett family, esteemed as the No. 1 archaic martial arts family, had been established in the martial arts world for decades, always demonstrating morality and rules to others. It was unbelievable that Mr. Rudy, the future head of the Barrett family, would utter such unreasonable words.” 

“Could it be that the legendary Mr. Rudy, who was known for his distinguished appearance and high cultivation, actually said such irrelevant words?” 

“This Ms. Mellor was even more so, the two of them…hehe.”

Roxie saw that Rudy was also speaking up for her. They shared a tacit understanding and exchanged a smile. 

Upon arriving, Israel was greatly shocked by what Rudy had said. 

He hastily pulled Rudy, whispering, “Young master, this is not appropriate…” 

Before he could finish speaking, Rudy nonchalantly shrugged off Israel, “Mr. Israel, don’t worry about this, it’s a trivial matter.” 

Chapter 221 The Necklace 

With so many people present, Israel had no choice but to consider. Rudy’s dignity, and had to stand cautiously on the side. 

Roxie, backed by Rudy, said coldly, “Did you hear Mr. Rudy? Take off the necklace and give it back to me immediately! If I have to lay a hand on you, it won’t be pretty!” 

Crystal gritted her teeth and scolded angrily, “Humph! This is the birthday gift Robin gave me, I won’t give it to anyone!” 

Seeing Crystal’s firm refusal, Rudy stepped forward and said, “Ms. Thompson, since Roxie likes this necklace, you should give it to her!” 

“This necklace was auctioned off by the Barrett family. I can transfer fifty billion to you right now, at most. In fact, I can even give you an extra ten billion, on the condition that you immediately give the necklace to Ms. Mellor!” 

Upon hearing Rudy’s words, Israel hastily pulled him again, whispering in admonishment, “Young Master, we must not break the rules of the Barrett family…” 

Rudy glared at him and said harshly, “Mr. Israel, don’t speak!” 

Israel helplessly shook his head. 

Upon hearing Rudy’s words, Roxie laughed in triumph. 

She looked at Crystal with contempt, “Did you hear that? Mr. Rudy has already spoken, now hurry up and return the necklace to me, otherwise, I will make you look bad!” 

“Besides, this necklace originally belonged to the Barrett family. Mr. Rudy wanted it back and didn’t want to auction it to you. Yet, you shamelessly refused to hand it over. Don’t you think you’re being utterly disgraceful?” 

Chapter 223 The Necklace 

Crystal sneered, saying, “One is the young master of the No. 1 archaic martial arts family, and the other is the young lady of the largest alliance in Londraland’s martial arts world. Both of you are young talents and the pride of the heavens, yet you both resort to such despicable logic. It’s utterly ridiculous!” 

“Mr. Israel!” Crystal turned to Israel. 

“Could it be that the items you, the Barrett family, auctioned off can be forcibly returned? I want to hear your, the Barrett family’s, 

explanation!” 

Israel gave an awkward laugh, “I’m sorry, Ms. Thompson, the Barrett family absolutely would not…” 

Rudy glared at Israel, saying coldly, “Butler, you have no say here! I call the shots on how the Barrett family does things!” 

Israel furrowed his brow, sighed quietly to himself, and softly persuaded, “Young Master, please don’t be willful. Every word you say represents the attitude of the Barrett family…” 

Rudy, a stark contrast to his previous gentleness, angrily rebuked, “Shut up! You’re just a butler, what right do you have to tell me what to do!” 

Israel sighed and reluctantly nodded. 

Turning to Crystal, he apologized, “Ms. Thompson, I’m sorry. The young master is still young. The Barrett family will definitely give you an explanation for this matter. You should leave here first.” 

Crystal noticed that Israel was having a hard time with this matter and nodded, “Alright, I won’t stoop to their level! I shouldn’t have come to this celebration of the Hashville Martial Arts Union in the first place!” 

Having said that, he turned and walked towards the outside of the

hotel. 

Seeing that Crystal was completely ignoring her words, Roxic abruptly grabbed Crystal’s sleeve. 

With a “rip“, the sleeve of Crystal’s white long dress was torn the way to her armpit. 

, all 

Crystal hastily clutched her torn dress, annoyed, she said, “Ms. Mellor, is this the upbringing of a Miss from your Hashville Martial Arts Union?” 

Seeing Roxie act like this, Rudy also slightly furrowed his brow. 

He immediately stepped forward and said, “Ms. Thompson, I advise you to return the necklace to Roxie. Otherwise, it could really cause unpleasantness, which would be difficult for everyone.” 

Upon hearing Rudy’s words, everyone was left speechless. 

Roxie’s unreasonable behavior, forcibly snatching Crystal’s necklace, had already caused her to lose face completely. 

The young talent of the Barrett, family, Rudy, was actually being so unreasonable, even speaking up for Roxie?! 

It really was a shocker! 

Crystal was also shocked by the scene before her. 

She glared at Rudy and said, “The Barrett family has been in the public eye for decades, renowned and respected! I can’t believe you would say something so disgraceful!” 

“From this perspective, the Barrett family was nothing more than an empty name!” 

Chapter 223 The Necklace 

“You wanted me to give her the necklace? Who did you think you were? Absolutely ridiculous!” 

A terrifying gloom instantly fell over Rudy’s fair face. He snorted coldly. “In this world, power is what matters! When I tell you to hand over the necklace, you should obediently do so. There’s no room for all this nonsense!” 

Everyone in the Empyrean Hall turned to look at the gloomy Rudy under the shadow of the lamp. 

This sentence was identical to what Roxie said! 

At that moment, the rising star of the Barrett family, his previous demeanor of a modest gentleman and gentle elegance, was completely gone! 

Roxie looked up at Rudy and gave a laugh, then turned to point at Crystal. “I’ll say it again, give me the necklace immediately, or I will tear your clothes off in public!” 

Crystal gave a bitter laugh, “In your dreams! The necklace Robin gave me. I wouldn’t give it to you even if I were dead!” 

Rudy heard Crystal repeatedly mention the name Robin, which seemed somewhat familiar, as if his grandfather Travis had mentioned someone named Robin before. 

He glanced at Israel, asking in a low voice, “This name Robin sounds familiar, do you know it?” 

“My lord, Mr. Bruce is…” Israel had not finished speaking. 

At that moment, an action of Roxie’s greatly shocked everyone. 

She stepped forward, grabbed the Cloud–Moon Necklace around Crystal’s neck, and yanked it off harshly. 

A long streak of blood suddenly appeared on Crystal’s fair neck.
