Chapter 1278:
He covered his bruised face with a mask, leaving only his cold eyes exposed.
Aaron?
Aaron had to be the one who had chased him that night, demanding he put Adalina down.
Milford believed he and Aaron were roughly the sage, but Aaron was decked out in expensive designer
clothes. He thought that just Aaron’s shoes probably cost more than everything he was wearing combined.
With a guy like Aaron around Adalina, it was no surprise Denzel avoided him, thinking he was skind of shady
character.
Adalina probably felt the sway. To them, someone like him was beneath them, someone who didn’t deserve
justice. Maybe they even thought he didn’t deserve to live.
An hour later, Milford finally made it hby bus. Lisa rushed to open the door when she heard him knock. She
gasped when she saw his battered face.
“Milford!” she cried. “What happened?”
“It’s nothing, just sminor injuries,” Milford mumbled, taking off his mask and hat as he headed for his room.

collecting debts for my brother? I'm telling him about this! How dare they beat you up and not pay their debts?
It's just not right!”
Milford replied, “No, it’s not about the debts. It's just a misunderstanding. You wouldn't get it. Just go back to
studying.”
Lisa hesitated, and Milford frowned. “Go,” he said firmly.

“Okay...” Lisa reluctantly went back to her room to study. However, she couldn't shake the feeling that
something was off, so she called Barry and told him everything.
Barry immediately called the club owner, who denied having anything to do with the matter. “If your guy came
here, | wouldn't touch him even if | didn’t want to give the money back. Don’t you dare accuseof something |
didn’t do! If | beat him up, | would own up to it. Now, go bother someone else!”
“Could you at least helpfigure out what happened? He was beaten badly,” Barry said.
The club owner, having a bit of a conscience, checked the security cameras and found something. He called
Barry back. “Your guy got into a fight trying to be a hero. It’s not our fault!”
Learning about what had actually happened, Barry was furious. Milford had asked for trouble. Milford had been
brave to save Lisa on the street, but going to the club to play the hero was just plain stupid.
At night, when Barry got home, Lisa said to him, “You can’t keep sending Milford on these dangerous tasks!”
“It's not my fault! I'd never put him in
harm's way on purpose. He got om
