Natasha calmly took a sip of her drink.“Your face isn’t worth that much anyway.”
“Pfft.” Sadie laughed out loud.
That line hit with double meaning. First, Matthew was clearly on Olivia's side.
To him, even if Natasha and Sadie had done nothing wrong, they were guilty by association-and his obnoxious
mouth didn’t help his case either.
Second, power in the Hill family now rested with his cousin Ramona. Matthew, once a lawless brat who thought
the world revolved around him as one of the only legitimate heirs, had been crushed under Ramona’s rise in the
past two years.
Out in public, Matthew really didn’t have much face left.
Matthew's face turned dark. ‘These two have tongues like blades.’
But thinking of his real purpose, Matthew held it in and waved over a server. “Drinks,” he ordered.
Soon, a spread of colorful cocktails was placed on the table.
Natasha turned them down without hesitation. “Not sharing a table.”
Matthew cursed under his breath. ‘Damn it. Do | look like | need to share a damn table to get
drinks?"
“Natasha, you were behind that whole thing with the hired trolls a while back, weren't you? Drink all this tonight
and I'll let it go,” Matthew said.
“Let it go?” Natasha shot back. “Who cares what you do?”
Even before this, Matthew had never once gone easy on her.
Every tshe clashed with Olivia, Matthew was the first to ccharging in like a rabid dog. Natasha had
gotten used to it by now.
Matthew pushed on. “Alright, let's make a bet. If you last longer than me, I'll leave you alone for three months
and even buy you a car. But if | win, you need to apologize to Olivia for an hour.”
“Not betting, Natasha replied flatly.
Matthew; “Fine, just ten minutes of public apology”
Natasha: “Not playing.”
Matthew snapped, “What, scared of losing?”

Natasha shot him a lazy glance. “Please. That kind of reverse psychology doesn’t even work on grade schoolers.”
‘Goddamn, how can this woman be so damn annoying?‘ Matthew thought. Just like Olivia said. A nightmare.
Frustrated beyond reason, Matthew got to his feet and started pacing in circles.
Finally, he stopped, eyes narrowing. “Whether you drink or not, you're drinking tonight.”
Matthew wasn’t letting her walk out of here without a complete humiliation.
The tension was electric, though hidden beneath the bar's thumping music. No one else seemed to notice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Hey, Mr. Hill. What are you doing out here? Con, let's hit the VIP room.” A few rich kids strolled over after
recognizing him.
They cfrom nouveau riche families. Even though Ramona had crushed Matthew's reputation within the
family, outside he was still a young master of the Hill family-and always had people eager to kiss up.
Matthew smiled at the guys. He said, “Trying to get these two beauties to have a drink, but they're a little icy
tonight. Whoever gets them to drink first gets ten grand. Anyway you want, no rules.”
Matthew threw a challenging glance at Natasha. ‘Don’t want the easy way? Let's see how you like the hard one.
The guys tonight aren’t half as polite as me.’
These guys’ eyes lit up. They didn’t have Matthew's kind of cash-thirty thousand dollars for one drink was a lot.
They glanced at the dozens of cocktails on the table and swallowed hard. Then all eyes locked onto Natasha and
Sadie.
Truth be told, even after hanging around bars for years, they hadn't seen beauties like this.
No wonder Matthew was interested. A young man’s temptation-no explanation needed.
One guy with narrow eyes stepped forward. “You ladies are being rude. Mr. Hill offering you a drink-it’s called
respect. Con, lethelp you out.”
He reached for Sadie’s shoulder, trying to pin her in place with brute strength. But before he could even touch
her, a hard leather clutch slammed into his face.
Sadie cursed, “Back off! Blind mutt-who the hell do you think you are, touching me?”
At the stime, Natasha flung a full glass of liquor at another guy who'd been eyeing her up sleazy intent. His
face twisted as alcohol and tears stung his eyes.

Humiliated and soaked, the two guys looked ready to fight back-but the icy fire in the women’s stares froze them
in place.
One wrong move, and they knew the retaliation wouldn't stop at just drinks.
The failed opening move made the rest hesitate. They thought, ‘Anyone bold enough to defy Matthew and still
strike back that hard... Maybe they aren't ordinary girls after all.
Sadie sneered coldly. “Matthew, using dirty tricks on women like that? No wonder the Hill family doesn’t take you
seriously.”
Matthew's face darkened. “Seventy thousand dollars.”
The guys still hesitated. One of them, clearly more cautious, asked carefully, “Mr. Hill, you know these two
personally?”
Matthew noticed their concern and let out a cold chuckle. “What's there to be scared of? One’s a fake heiress
whose dad doesn’t even love her. The other got kicked out of her house years ago. Even if you slept with them
tonight, nobody would care.”
Matthew slowly looked the women up and down. “The only thing valuable about them is their looks. Who knows
what they’re like in private? And that one in red-"
Seeing more and more eyes turning their way, Matthew doubled down. “Bet none of you know she’s actually
mentally unstable—"
Before he could finish, a beer bottle ccrashing down on his head, cutting off his attempt to drag Sadie out of
the booth.
Blood and beer mixed and ran down his face. Through the sticky warmth, Matthew saw Natasha's smile-bright,
charming, and dangerous.
“Well, since you know I'm mentally unstable, then you should also know that legally, | can kill you and walk away
free.” Natasha chirped.
Natasha was smiling like sunshine, beautiful and innocent-yet something about it sent a chill straight to the
bone.
Screams broke out. “Someone’s gonna die.” The words echoed in drunken waves as chaos swept the
bar.

Dylan added a warning, “Tell your staff to stay out of it.”

Dylan glanced at his screen, delighted by what he'd captured. He'd been about to step in, but clearly, Natasha
didn’t need saving.
‘Alexei didn’t marry roses-he married fire. Impressive.’ Dylan clicked his tongue.
Since no one on his side had taken a hit, Dylan was more than happy to just enjoy the show.
The bar owner, now frozen and watching the crowd scatter, looked like he'd swallowed a bitter lemon.

On the floor below, the tables had turned. Natasha had taken out the ringleader first-one hit with the bottle and
Matthew was down.
The rest, especially the two who'd already gotten a taste of retaliation, weren't eager to follow.
No one wanted to go up against the woman who'd just smashed a bottle over Matthew’s head.
