Alice saw Jack''s professional fighting technique. The young man was knocked to the ground, speechless with pain.
The male trainer, seeing his wealthy client being beaten, grabbed a metal cab and swung it. Jack blocked it, and the trainer lunged.
The situation escted; the trainer''s colleagues joined the fray. Seeing Jack outnumbered, Alice joined the fight. But even with her boxing skills, she was at a disadvantage against stronger men.
[Stop! What are you doing?]"
The gym owner arrived. The boxing trainer, seeing Jack fighting, panicked, quickly subduing the
group.
The brawl ended. The young man, standing, yelled, "[You''re the owner, right? They beat me up. What are
you going to do?]" The trainer and his colleagues were injured.
Alice stood beside Jack, noticing blood on his a n.“[You''re bleeding.]”
"[Are you hurt?]"
Jack immediately checked Alice for injuries, relieved to see she was fine.
The gym owner looked at the young man.
young man.“[I''ve received multipleints about you harassing women here. Did you think no one noticed?]"
The young man stammered, “[It was consensual. It''s none of your business.]" "[We have the security footage.]"
[Don''t threaten me! I''m calling the police! I lost a tooth!]" His speech was slurred, his mouth bleeding. "[Go ahead. Who''s afraid of who?]"
Alice, taking Jack''s hand, said,“[Owner, do you have a first-aid kit? He needs treatment.]* “[Yes, I''ll get it.]”
Jack said calmly,“[It''s fine.]”
“[You''re bleeding! It''s not fine!]"
Alice pulled him to the boxing area. The trainer arrived with a kit, nervously looking at Jack. Who would have thought the Capital''s Prince Charming would be brawling? And injured.
Alice took the kit.“[Coach, it''s not your fault. It was sudden.]”

Sitting beside Jack, she looked at his bleeding wound – a cut from the cab. Jack looked at the trainer, his gaze cold.“[Leave.]"
"[Yes, sir.]" The trainer left.
Alice took the antiseptic."[This might sting.]"
"[Minor injury...ouch.]” Jack winced when she applied it, his gaze intense.“[On purpose?]" "[No. Antiseptic stings.]" Alice blew on his wound.
Jack tensed, looking away, ufortable.
The gym was quiet; only they were there. He saw her carefully treating his wound.

Alice finished."[I didn''t expect you to fight!]" She hadn''t.
Mere
Jack looked away calmly."[He was being a jerk!]" He hadn''t controlled his temper. He usually didn''t need to get his hands dirty. Especially when he heard men spreading rumors about her. He couldn''t, wouldn''t, stand
by.
He nced at Alice."[You fought too. You knew to go where there were no cameras.]” I lost it.]"
“[I didn''t expect him to be so disgusting. He kept harassing me.
She hadn''t expected a brawl. This would be troublesome.
Alice looked at his wound.“[Don''t get it wet. Get a tetanus shot. It was a metal cab.]” Jack nodded; he felt no pain, but his thoughts were racing.
he trainer returned.“[Sir, they called the police.]"
"[They dare? The nerve!]"
Alice stormed out; many female students had been harassed by that man. She was furious.
Watching her go, Jack smirked; she had a strong sense of justice.
“[Sir, I''m sorry you were injured.]” The trainer was nervous.
Jack looked at his wound."[Did you check the man''s background?]"
"[Davis called. He''s lucky; his techpany is worth millions. He thinks he''s hot stuff.]”
In Cloud City, millions were nothing to Jack.
Jack''s gaze turned cold.“[Call Davis. Buy hispany and bankrupt him by sunset tomorrow!]"
[Yes, sir. The police are informed; he''ll pay.]"
Jack went outside. He saw Alice berating the man. The man was speechless, his mouth bleeding, teeth missing.
Jack offered Alice water; she''d been talking non-stop.
She told the police, “[I''ve exined. It was self-defense.]"
“[We understand.]”
They arrested the man, who yelled, "[Why are you arresting me? I''m the victim! Do who I am? I''m rich!]"

Alice felt satisfied; that scum deserved it. But the trainer and his colleagues remained. One protested, “[Owner, why are you protecting her? My client is rich! She likely seduced him!]" His client was arrested; hismission was gone. Rich men sleeping with multiple women wasn''t news.
Jack''s eyes narrowed, his demeanor chilling. The boxing trainer confronted the protesting trainer.“[What are you saying? You know what kind of person your client is!]"
The owner, noticing Jack''s displeasure, looked at the trainer.“[You''re fired. I don''t need employees with your values.]"
"[Fine! It was consensual! You''re so high and mighty!]"
Before leaving, the trainer looked at Jack."[Don''t let her fool you. She probably sleeps around.]" Jack kicked over the trainer''s belongings, his eyes icy.
