Chapter 604
Harper looked at the man in front of her who emitted a violent and aggressive aura, and felt immense
pressure. This reminded her of the first time she met Alpha.
They were exactly the same in terms of the overwhelming presence and oppressive feeling.
However, the two gave off different vibes. Alpha was noble and restrained, emitting a chilling aura,
while Johnny was… fierce.
Right then, seeing that Mr. Brook had not responded, Harper didn’t even dare to speak again nor take a
breath… She could still recall the time when Johnny booked the entire venue vividly where he had
smashed a glass just because the waiter spilled the
drink.
She could tell that he was someone difficult to get along with so she quickly asked the waiter to step
back and went up to serve
him personally. Perhaps it was because her service was good that

Harper thought that Johnny would ask her to pour the wine, but
instead, he looked up with his dark eyes and stared at her intently.
The wild and arrogant gaze made Harper, who was usually calm, couldn’t help but swallow her saliva.
“Mr. Brook, this is a legitimate entertainment venue. Besides beverage service, we don’t offer anything
else!” If it was another customer, this sentence would have been spoken directly. But Johnny was not
someone she could afford to provoke.
As Harper muttered to herself, Mr. Brook withdrew his gaze and spoke in a deep, magnetic voice, “Do
you know Rosalie Carmine?”
The low and magnetic voice traveled to her ears slowly, it was extremely pleasing to the ear.
When Harper heard the name, her heart calmed down a little.
Johnny couldn’t possibly be interested in someone like her but
a woman like Taya. But wait, Griffon was the one who had an
interest in Taya, so Johnny shouldn’t be interfering at this time…
Keeping her composure, Harper looked at Johnny and asked, “Do
you know her? Is there something you need from her?”
Johnny raised his eyebrows in annoyance at Harper’s questioning
and demanded, “Where is she?”
From the way he spoke, Harper sensed that he wasn’t fond of Taya and might be looking for trouble.
Harper was always cautious when it came to Taya, so she didn’t hesitate to challenge Mr. Brook,
regardless of his status or power.
If you want to see my friend, you’ll need to tell me the reason first. Otherwise, I have no obligation to
tell you anything.”
The bodyguards, surprised that a nightclub owner would dare to speak to Johnny in such a way, began
to reach for the back of their waists.
Seeing their synchronized movement, Harper’s heart sk ipped a beat, but she kept a calm expression
as she stared directly at Johnny.
After a brief standoff, the seated Johnny waved his hand, and the bodyguards withdrew to the side,

a bad temper and had always been afraid of him, but right then, she could sense that he was extremely
dangerous.
She wasn’t sure if Johnny was looking for Rosalie, who had
already passed away, or Taya, who was using Rosalie’s identity
right then. Since outsiders didn’t know about Rosalie’s death or
Taya’s true identity, Harper didn’t dare to make the first move.
She was afraid of alerting Mr. Brook, so she decided to remain
silent and observe him.
Johnny struggled to control his impending outburst of anger and lifted his dark and icy gaze to stare at
Harper.
“I need to talk to her about something.”
“What sort of thing?”
Johnny’s suppressed anger surged up at Harper’s persistent questioning and he warned,
“Ms. Duke, tell me where she is before I lose my temper. Else, don’t blame me for being mean to you!”
