After everything Jacob had said, Darren was just an inch away from completely losing his temper. But the thought that Bonnie was suffering entirely because of him forced him to control his anger. With that said, Darren clenched both of his fists under the table and tried his best to calm himself down.
"I swear I won't take revenge on the Gu Family. From now on, the Xu Family and the Gu Family will not meddle in each other's affairs anymore." Taking Darren's whole life into consideration, this was his biggest admittance of defeat. Even though he wanted to tear Jacob into pieces with his own hands, he had to give up this fight for Bonnie's sake.
Unfortunately, Jacob had very little reason to believe in Darren's promise. As his rival, he couldn't believe a single word that came out of his mouth. 'Did Darren ever think of letting me go when he set me up? How could he ask me to be so kind now?' Jacob thought.
"Mr. Xu, do you really think I'll let you off that easily? Everyone in the business world knows what kind of man I am. I am a bully who will always seek revenge even for the smallest grievance. Anyone who offends me can be sure that I'll get them back. The fact that you want me to forget everything that you've done to me and live the rest of our lives as if we've never known each other makes you a truly naive man. Since I've known you, I've never feared going up against you."
Jacob stood his ground. He made it very clear that he would never hand over Bonnie to Darren.
At that moment, Darren felt utterly humiliated. He lowered his head in embarrassment, something he had never done since he was a child. Jacob's words made him truly feel like he was a man incapable of anything.
Darren finally understood why Jacob had agreed to meet him. From the very start, there were no deals to be made. He was only there to add insult to injury and stomp on a man who was already on the ground.
With this realization, Darren finally snapped. He rushed over to Jacob and punched him right in the face.
Jacob was stunned and unable to dodge. He hadn't expected that Darren would act this way. But Jacob wasn't a man who would back down from a fight. In a blink of an eye, he got back up and started throwing punches of his own.
The two of them were the greatest businessmen in the city, but they fought like professional boxers.
Punches were thrown back and forth, leaving no room for each other to catch their breath. After a while, Jacob had the upper hand. With his last punch, Darren was knocked down to the ground.
Jacob suffered a few bruises on his face and body. On the other hand, Darren looked like he'd been beaten up by more than a dozen men.
Knowing he had already won, Jacob picked up his coat and turned around to leave. But before doing so, he looked
ared for him.
While she was waiting for his response, she applied some medicine on his face.
Jacob cleared his throat and replied, "I didn't want you to worry, so I didn't tell you. And besides, it isn't that big of a deal. It's just a small bruise."
Emily rolled her eyes at him and replied, "No matter how small, pain is still pain. So how did you get this wound?"
Jacob thought for a while about whether he should tell her the truth or not. A few minutes later, he finally replied, "There's this random guy that I offended long ago. He came today and punched me once when I was in the parking lot. It didn't end well for him because he was no match for me."
Jacob decided it was better to hide the truth from Emily. He knew she would get mad since she was good friends with Bonnie.
"Well, you should hire two more bodyguards to protect you. Although you're a good fighter, you should prioritize your safety. Especially since you have a wife and two children waiting for you to come home." Emily had very little reason to doubt Jacob at that moment, so she easily believed him.
After all, given how famous the Gu Family was, it was inevitable for them to have enemies. Jacob's words sounded quite reasonable.
When Emily was done tending to Jacob's injury, the two of them kissed each other good night and headed to bed.
The next day, Darren went to the police station early in the morning. He decided that the best thing he could do was to just turn himself in.
While he was walking inside, his face showed the despair he felt inside his heart.
Even after thinking all night about ways to save Bonnie, he couldn't find a way to do so. He couldn't bear to see her suffer anymore and decided he had to do something to set her free.
Promising himself to never let that woman suffer because of him, he willingly decided to turn himself in.
