Chapter 17
But as soon as his voice came out, it was instantly drowned out by the surrounding noise.
Brenton became more and more scared, and his voice became hoarse.
In his mind, there was only one thought screaming frantically he couldn’t let that man kiss her, they couldn’t get married!
That was his, it was his!
He was willing to pay any price, no matter what it took!
He also wanted to snatch Leanna back!
He wanted to tell her how much he missed her during the days she was away. He wanted to tell her the truth about everything. He wanted to tell her that it was all over, and he could come back to her. They could continue living their days together. He wanted to tell her that he would protect her well in the future and never let her get hurt again.
However, just as Brenton was about to break out of the crowd, two people in military uniforms suddenly stood in front of him.
“Sorry, you couldn’t go in.”
One of the soldiers reached out his hand, his tone polite yet unquestionable.
Brenton simply didn’t listen, trying to push away the soldier’s hand while his own voice carried a suppressed urgency.
“Move aside, I want to see Leanna, she was my wife!”
Two soldiers paused for a moment, silently locking eyes with each. other, both filled with confusion.
Was Leanna his wife?
Not long ago, their young master told them that Leanna was their mistress.
And the lady’s ex–husband had long since died in a car accident.
One of the bodyguards immediately turned around and looked back at Brenton, with a hint of warning in his tone.
“Sorry, you still can’t come in. If you cause any more trouble, we will have to ask you to leave.”
Brenton’s face darkened a few shades instantly, he had never been rejected like this over and over again before.
If it had been in the past, he would have already gotten angry, but now this is not the Anderson family, nor is it Chicago, so he had to endure no matter what.
Thinking of this, Brenton clenched his hands and took a deep breath, “I really knew Leanna.”
“Can you please make an exception and tell her that Brenton wants to see her?”
In the end, Brenton’s tone was filled with undeniable humility and pleading.
However, the two soldiers remained unmoved, like a cold wall, completely blocking him from reaching the door to see Leanna.

The commotion here also began to attract the attention of the surrounding guests, and people started whispering to each other.
Some people had already recognized Brenton, after all, the incident where the youngest son of the Anderson family pretended to be his older brother’s wife had caused quite a stir.
It even made headlines in many newspapers, and even on the television
news.
So much so that even the residents of Hawaii had heard about it.
Although Leanna didn’t stay in Hawaii for long, it was enough for them to understand Leanna’s character.
The thought of such a considerate girl being mistreated by Brenton instantly angered the kind islanders, who all stood up for her.
“How dare such a person come to this pure little island!”
“If I were you, I would just hang myself and be done with it!”
“It’s really unlucky to encounter such a person during a big celebration, I spit on them!”

The more people talked, the angrier they became, and finally someone couldn’t help but resort to violence!
“Bang!”
A strong gust of wind suddenly hit Brenton, before he could react, someone punched him in the face!
“Dong!”
Chapter 17
In the past, Brenton would have easily dodged this punch, but now, because of these things and searching for Leanna, he has worn down his body and no longer has the same energy as before.
Brenton, caught completely off guard, was immediately knocked to the ground. Before he could catch his breath, the others rushed forward. punching and kicking him.
Under the repeated kicks and blows, Brenton almost heard the sound of his bones shattering.
He didn’t let go of him until everyone calmed down.
Brenton was lying on the ground, covered in blood, not moving at all.
After a while, he finally struggled to raise his hand to wipe away the blood at the corner of his mouth.
In order not to disturb the wedding inside, several strong men walked out of the crowd, dragging Brenton and about to throw him out.
“Roll, roll, roll, roll far away!”
“Do not disturb this wedding again. If you dare to come back, we will beat you up every time we see you!”
