After all , the family of Tyler is wealthy and influential .
What if… Noticing my concerned look , Xavier merely gave a cold laugh .
He flexed his wrist .
Ill show you first what price you pay for hurting Wendy ! With that , he motioned for his bodyguards to enter and restrain Tyler .
This is what happens to anyone who dares bully my princess ! At his signal , the bodyguards began punching and kicking Tyler until there wasnt a spot on his body that wasnt bruised .
