Love at the Wrong Table by Emmanuel Lowe Chapter 100
Chapter 100 “Hey, gorgeous. How about you spend some time with us?” The ruffian leading the group flaunted his hairy chest with an unbuttoned shirt. His lackeys appeared to be street punks, but their eyes sparkled with uncharacteristic alertness. Emmanuel frowned instantly. He had dealt with true thugs like Samuel and Rat. Naturally, he knew what a true ruffian was like. These people in front of him seemed too tough as if they were putting up an act, with their steady stances and menacing glares. They were not common ruffians but trained fighters! “What do you guys want?” Hubert rushed over, believing that Mackenzie was a damsel in distress and he was the shining knight in armor to the rescue. “Hey, don’t be impulsive,” Emmanuel quickly stepped forward to stop Hubert from doing something reckless.

However, that was beside the point. He had saved the damsel in distress right in front of Mackenzie’s decoy boyfriend, nonetheless. Hubert couldn’t help but think Mackenzie had found a terribly weak decoy to pull the wool over his eyes. It’s one thing that he drives an electric scooter, but he can’t even put up a fight. I would have been the villain in a typical web novel, as a man rejected by the female lead. Typically, the decoy boyfriends will show off their skills in such a situation.
