Chapter 355 - An Eye For An Eye

"Did he do this?" He had asked her, but she guessed her answer was unnecessary as he already had formed his conclusion.

It was written all over his face as it contorted in anger. His eyes ablaze, not tearing his eyes away from Nick. He already decided that he could not let this slide.

"Alex, let us just go." She did not want him to waste his time on a man like him. "He is not worth it." She knew what would happen if she did not stop Alex from what he was thinking.

But there was nothing she could do as he continued to strode into the room where Nick stood waiting, ready for whatever was coming his way.

They were both equally built, almost at the same size. Dani could only wonder who would have the upper hand. She knew that both trained to defend themselves, but they had grown up in a different kind of discipline.

"This will not take long." He heard her, but he could not stop. He continued on his path, seeing that Nick was already anticipating his first move.

As soon as he was at a striking distance, he moved his left hand in the direction of his face, but he easily eluded his thrust. Nick also made a counter strike, but he already knew it was coming.

"I\'m sorry, but I can\'t let this pass," Alex said after letting his fist fly again and hitting him on the mark. He had tricked Nick, giving him a follow-up blow on the stomach and another one on his cheek.

Nick tried to recover and throw some punches too, but it hardly made a dent on Alex as it lacked a strong impact. Nick had already sustained several hard blows that he could barely stand straight.

"Stop it," Dani shouted, wanting the fighting to stop. Luckily, Nick\'s assistant was able to call the security who walked into the room, preventing the two from going at it again.

It took two men to stop Alex from beating Nick lifeless, and then the other two helped their boss to his feet. But instead of anger, Dani saw Nick smirked, amused with Alex\'s violent reaction.

"Please, Sir, you have to come with us." One of the security men finally let go of him when Alex had calmed down.

"No, let them go," Nick commanded his men as he stood straight and fixed his clothes that had gone disarray from the brawl.

He used his fingers to wipe the blood that dripped down his broken lips and smiled upon seeing it. He shook his head to clear his head from the blow he had incurred.

He never liked doing his dirty work, but sometimes it was necessary. Right now, he had Alex just where he wanted him. It might have caused him some bruises and minor broken bones, but it was all worth it.

"Alex, please." She begged him, entwining her arms around his, hoping that he would finally snap out of whatever had possessed him to lose control.

She knew that Nick was up to something no good, but at the moment, all she wanted was to be as far away from him as possible. She could not stand another minute in the same room with him.

"This is not over yet," Alex stated in a threatening voice. "Touch her again, and I assure you that you have not seen the last of me." He could not tolerate what he did.

He had very high reverence for women. He believed that men had no right to lay a finger on them or disrespect them in any way. What Nick did was unacceptable, and he had to pay for it.

It was unfortunate that he had lost his control. However, he would not regret defending Dani from men like him. Nick already caused enough damage to Dani\'s life. Alex would not allow him to continue to do so.

"I assure you that this is far from over." Dani finally could not take the way he was mocking them with his smile.

She wanted him to pay for all his sins, but she knew it was never that simple. Nick was a sly fox who knew how to avoid messing with the law. But she would find a way to be answerable to the law, even if take her forever.

"I am looking forward to it," Nick answered her with a malicious smile and a subtle kiss, just for her. "But expect my retaliation." He offered his warning too.

He could see that Alex was fuming from his small action and his parting words, but he enjoyed it too much for him to stop. Finally, the couple walked towards the door, escorted by his men.

"Are you alright?" Alex looked at her and took her hand as they left the building.

He knew he had made a mistake by losing his sensibility and letting Nick get to his nerves. He should have known better. But when it came to Dani, he seemed to be going crazy.

"Yes, don\'t worry about me. I can handle myself just fine. But thanks for coming to my rescue." She held his gaze, assuring him that she was ok.

She could have handled the situation on her own. She had it under control, but Alex showed up. Although she appreciated his effort to defend her, she knew it was not necessary.

He assisted her on the passenger seat of his car, ready to take her home. He knew that they could never go back to the office in their current condition. He also had to attend to her bruises.

"You know I will always come when you need me. Look at what Nick did to you. I will never forgive myself if he had done worse." He touched the reddened area on her skin and felt the rage once again.

He wished he could do more to hurt Nick and wiped that ugly smug on his face. But he believed that it would not have solved anything. He had to think smart and not stoop to his level.

Nick was not someone who did fight fair. He had to be careful with dealing with him. Nick would have something up his sleeves. He could expect that Nick would fulfill his threat and exact his revenge anytime soon.

Nick was the kind of man that believed in an eye for an eye.
