Chapter 35: Riley Aguztoz

"Hello, Miss Beautiful, want to join us? Hehe."

Dante looked dumbfounded when a group of rowdy people came and directly asked the manager to join them.

He glanced at Manager Sai and saw her pretending not to hear anything.

Wait. Doesn’t this scene look somewhat familiar?

He saw this kind of scene many times in movies and anime, but who would have thought that it happened in real life too? For some reason, Dante felt curious about how this would develop.

He wanted to hear Manager Sai’s response, however, she remained quiet and graciously brought food into her mouth.

"Don’t you think we are better than this boyfriend of yours?"

Wha—

Dante almost spat out the drink he was drinking but he managed to avoid following the same clinches as other characters in anime.

Me? Manager Sai’s boyfriend?

Wait. Do these idiots think we are a couple?

Not even once in the past up to the present that it crossed his mind.

If they only knew the truth.

Her background was not something an ordinary person must be involved in any form of relationship. Forget about romantically. Not to mention she was his boss. And the gap between their age.

So how did these idiots come to think they are a couple?

Dante squinted his eyes and touched his chin as if thinking deeply.

Just then he noticed something. Looking at Manager Sai, there was something different in her than usual, she didn’t look her age. She looked younger this time.

Could it be because she wasn’t showing her usual aloof and cold demeanor when she was at work? Or was it because she untied her usual ponytail?

Could it be because she was wearing a floral one-piece dress at the moment?

She was wearing a black suit over it when they were inside the car, but she took it off before they got out of it.

Dante rubbed his face and thought, That must be it.

Currently, Manager Sai is like a university chic, exuding both mature and teen aura.

Yeah, definitely why she attracts these cliche men’s attention.

Before Dante could say something, she dropped a bomb.

"Ara, my boyfriend is far superior to you. Right, Baby?" She winked at him, looking sweet and cute.

Pfft!

Yeah, he spat out the drink to one of the men’s faces of all places.

Baby my ass!

"You bastard! Do you have a death wish?!" He grabbed Dante’s collar.

"Sorry, Ma’Bro. That’s unintentional!" He raised both hands in the air as if surrendering.

"If you don’t want to get beaten up, then scram!"

"Ahaha. That I can’t do."

He glared at Dante as if trying to intimidate him.

Wait. That’s indeed a good idea.

He looked at Manager Sai and asked. "Can I go now?"

She suddenly touched her cheeks and blushed. "What? Do you want us to do that already? Baby, it’s still too early, you know? Fufu. You can’t hold your horse any longer, can you?"

Attention to all my kindred, don’t go trusting women like her.

The five men around them looked very jealous. They glared at him as if he was the obstacle they needed to clear. If only glare could kill, he would have already died on the spot.

He did not expect her to be good at acting. She could put all those popular actresses nowadays a run for their money. She reminded him of a certain blonde female character in a romcom anime, who was good at acting and disguising to the point one would think she has multiple personalities.

Glancing at her, Dante sensed something.

Wait. Knowing her, this must not be just a mere coincidence.

"Ahem," he cleared his throat. "A-Ara. Y-You got me, B-babe. W-What can I do when my g-girlfriend is this beautiful? Aha-ahaha."

I know. My acting is stiffer than Roland Reagun’s statue.

Tap!

The person in the center of the group suddenly slammed the table with his palm.

"Miss Beautiful, do you think he’s better than me? That must be a joke," he asked her while pointing to Dante with his thumb. His voice carried a tone of mockery and belittling. Not even bother masking his arrogance.

"My boyfriend is the son of a CEO in a million-dollar company, so of course he’s better than all of you. Right, baby?"

"Y-yes..."

A bead of sweat trailed down Dante’s face.

"AHAHA!"

A boisterous laughter suddenly rang out. The man in the center brushed his blonde hair upward and said haughtily, "Miss, I don’t care which CEO’s semen this bastard came from. My name is Riley Aguztoz. In this City, no one would openly offend me."

Hearing his name, Dante knitted his brows. The name rang a bell. It sounds familiar to him. But where did he hear it?

Uh, right. Didn’t Mrs. Bear mention it yesterday? The Aguztoz Gang. Could he be related to it?

The other four people around Riley were grinning. As though they finally revealed their trump card.

"Ah, so you’re Riley Aguztoz, the third son of Moray Aguztoz, the head of the Aguztoz Gang." Manager Sai’s voice went back to her usual aloof and stern voice.

Hearing her seemingly knowing about him, a grin appeared on Riley’s mouth. Their Aguztoz name was spread across the city, so of course, only idiots would not know or hear about them. Those who knew about him would willingly throw themselves at him.

"So Miss, leave your boyfriend and come with me before I change my mind." Saying that, he poured the wine on Dante’s head, which surprised him a little.

At that moment, they heard two claps, then suddenly. Two burly men in black came rushing inside the room.

Dante immediately recognized them.

They are the twins, Manager Sai’s bodyguards. They were also with her in that white room where they brought him before.

"Take him! We’ll get information from him!"

Manager Sai pointed to Riley. The two nodded and approached him.

Eh? Wait, what?

The people with Riley looked puzzled. Riley himself looked surprised as well. However, his surprise was only temporary. He immediately understood what was going on.

"Heh~, so you’re not just an ordinary lass. Hehe. Interesting! Now I am more excited to get you! Hehehe!" He said, licking his lips.

Witwiw!

A whistle suddenly rang out. Then about 30 men entered the room. Each carrying a weapon.

"Young master, who offended you?" A thug-looking man with tattoos and piercings asked. On his shoulder was a bat with barbed wires around it.
