StarNovelChapter 337 Noelle was amazed by Cedric's expertly delivered punch. Mark was knocked to the ground, clutching his cheek in pain, unable to utter a word.
Norman, upon seeing his wealthy client get hit, immediately grabbed a metal locker nearby and hurled it at Cedric. Cedric deflected it with his arm just as Norman lunged at him.
Suddenly, the scene descended into chaos as Norman's close colleagues jumped in to join the brawl.
Seeing Cedric outnumbered, Noelle rushed over to help. Yet, despite her boxing training, she was still a young lady and naturally at a disadvantage against the men's superior physical strength.

Zachary was stunned to see Cedric in the middle of the fight. He rushed over and quickly took down the group with just a few moves, putting an end to the commotion.
Mark, who had been hiding in the back, got up and shouted, "You're the owner of this gym, right? These two attackedwhat are you going to do about it?" Norman and his buddies were also sporting injuries. Standing beside Cedric, Noelle noticed blood seeping through his arm. "You're bleeding!" she exclaimed in panic.
"Are you hurt?" Cedric asked, checking her for injuries without even glancing at his own. When he saw she was unharmed, he let out a sigh of relief.
Jim turned to Mark. "I've received several complaints about you harassing young female members here. Do you think no one noticed your behavior?" Flustered, Mark retorted, "Everything I did with them was consensual. You have no right to interfere in my business." "We have surveillance footage of your harassment." "Hah! Bluff all you want!" Mark sneered, his voice slurred and his mouth bloody. "I'm calling the cops, no matter what! They even broke my teeth!" "Go ahead; call them. I'm not afraid." Noelle said coldly. Taking Cedric's hand, she turned to Jim. "Mr. Xenos, do you have a first aid kit? His wound needs attention." "Yes, I'll have someone bring it over," Jim replied.
"I'm fine," Cedric said flatly.
"No, you're not! You're bleeding, for crying out loud!" Noelle shot back, pulling him toward the quieter boxing area.
Soon, Zachary returned with the first aid kit, looking slightly nervous as he approached Cedric. "I'm sorry, Mr. Greene. I should've gotten here sooner." Then again, Zachary had never expected the rich bachelor of Yasnia to get into a fight at a gym-let alone end up injured.
Noelle took the kit and reassured him, "It's not your fault, Mr. Roger. It all happened so fast." She sat next to Cedric, examining his wound. The cut appeared to have been caused by the metal locker. Cedric shot Zachary a cold glance and instructed, "Go take care of things outside." "Yes, Mr. Greene," Zachary replied promptly before leaving.
Noelle picked up the disinfectant and studied his injury. "This might sting a little."

"Of course not! Disinfecting wounds always hurts." She shot him a brief glance before leaning in to gently blow on the wound. Cedric immediately tensed, turning his head to the side to avoid her gaze. His expression showed a hint of unease.
The gym was quiet, with only the two of them in the room.
Cedric glanced back to her, watching as she carefully cleaned his wound, her expression focused and serious.
After finishing, Noelle looked up at him. "I never thought someone as calm as thany would throw a punch like Not in a million years had she imagined that.
