Chapter 77
Aurelia lifted her head in confusion upon hearing the voice. Behind her, Leslie coldly scanned the
crowd.
Leslie’s assistant, Daniel quickly responded, “Mr. Synder… Mr. Synder, we should celebrate. After all,
this acquisition went so smoothly.”
Daniel breathed a sigh of relief internally, managing to salvage the situation.
Who was this woman? And why was Leslie, who disliked women, protecting her like this?
Feeling embarrassed under the gaze of the onlookers, Aurelia realized she had misunderstood the
situation. But before she could apologize, the foreign man on the floor suddenly got up. Seething with
anger, he charged at Leslie.
“Mr. Synder!” Aurelia rushed toward them.
“I’m going to kill you! I won’t get in trouble for it anyway!” The foreign man was extremely arrogant.
Clenching his fist, he attempted to strike Leslie.

moment, he blocked the foreign man’s fist, using an elbow to pin the man’s neck. “Idiot? You want to kill
me? Try it then.”
“Ahh! Ahh!” The foreign man appeared strong, but in reality, he was all talk. It was all one- sided from
beginning to end. Eventually, two security guards came to hold him down.
By now, his face was bruised and swollen, but his insolent insults did not stop. “Hahaha, idiot, I’ll be just
fine! This woman will not only apologize but will also personally beg me for forgiveness. The hotel will
have to compensate me! You people are all the same!” Upon hearing this, Aurelia’s blood boiled. It was
no longer just about her being insulted; she felt that everyone present had been insulted by this man.
Without thinking, she stepped forward and punched the foreign man in the nose, landing a perfect hit
that sent a stream of blood gushing out.
After seeing blood, Aurelia realized her emotions had clouded her judgment, and she had used
excessive force. But since she had already thrown the punch, there was no turning back.
She retorted, “Shut up! Do you really think being a foreigner makes you some kind of king here? There
are security cameras above us, capturing your disgusting behavior.
“If your behavior from earlier were to be spread online, how do you think everyone would react? How
would the domestic companies here treat you?”
“Don’t you dare!” The foreign man glared menacingly at Aurelia.
Leslie glanced at Daniel, seizing the opportunity.
Daniel stepped forward solemnly and said, “Sir, this hotel now belongs to my boss. Your behavior is not
excusable. We absolutely cannot allow this to escalate. So, if necessary, we will release the
surveillance footage on both domestic and international websites.”
The foreign man’s voice weakened, “You’re violating my privacy rights!”
Daniel remained composed, “This is a public area.”
“You… you…” The foreign man was left speechless.
Other hotel staff also approached indignantly.

“Are you a guest from the downstairs event? If you coerced this lady into drinking, our hotel must report
it as harassment to the authorities.”
“Just so you know, we’re all locals and eyewitnesses here. Whose testimony do you think people would
trust more?”
With everyone backing her up, Aurelia no longer had any reservations. She raised her fist toward the
foreign man and said, “We’re not pushovers, especially not women!”
Faced with the encirclement of the crowd, the foreign man lost all confidence. He wiped his nosebleed
in pain and said, “Let’s go.”
“Not so fast,” Leslie stepped forward, showing a hint of disdain as he wiped his hands with a
handkerchief. He said calmly, “No apology? Or would you prefer to resolve it in another way?” The
foreign man, fearing Leslie, shrank back and turned to look at Aurelia. “I’m sorry, ma’am.
“Yes. But your apology shouldn’t be just to me. You should also apologize to Mr. Synder. What gives
you the right to be rude toward others? He also has dignity!” Aurelia pointed at Leslie. Leslie, who
hadn’t expected her to consider his feelings, looked at her in silence.
The foreign man could only say, “I’m sorry, sir.”
Leslie uttered coolly, “Get lost.”
The security personnel then escorted him away.
