Lilian’s eyes were shining as she moved her glass closer to Greg. She was ready to surrender her body to him the moment he gave the signal. Faye and the others were the same, concentrating only on Greg. They raised their glasses to drink with him and flatter him. They were smart because they knew what words would make a man tick. Greg was drowning in flattery. He drank with all the young women and smiled happily. “Greg, we’re going out for some air.” The guys who followed Greg to the gathering had gotten used to it and they wisely excused themselves. As long as Greg was present, the girls would surround him like bees to flowers. Other men would not stand a chance. Since it would be an eyesore, it would be better for the other guys to leave and find chances elsewhere. “Forget about them. Let’s drink!” Greg ignored his followers and continued to drink with the girls. Surrounded by alcohol and women, Greg felt like the king of the world. However, when he saw Darcy
“So, Ms. Quint, now you know how powerful is the priority partner list of Red Foundation. It’s a recognition. With that, Lilyrose Commerce Guild will be as good as being gilded! Your reputation will skyrocket! “Anyone with ill intentions toward the guild, or you, will have second thoughts.” Greg boasted his so-called priority partner list as if it could change the world, yet no one doubted him. He might sound exaggerating but the foundation indeed possessed such influence and power. The recognition that Greg mentioned was the reason many celebrities and powerful companies had to respect Red Foundation. Those who offended the foundation would be publicly questioned, causing reputations to be ruined and company shares to plummet. Therefore, many companies wanted the so-called recognition from Red Foundation. As Greg said, a company would be gilded once recognized and received endless benefits. It was also the main reason Lilian and the other girls tried to flatter Greg.
Darcy frowned. She resented Greg’s coercive tone, but she was forced to endure it because of the three hundred million dollars she donated. “Mr. Nanas, that’s not what I mean. I would never look down on you. It’s just that I am really not a drinker, I can’t drink that much.” Darcy refused to compromise, which made Greg’s expression grimmer. “Darcy Quint, when are you going to show some respect to Greg?” Lilian continued to fan the flames. She said, “Greg is looking after you. He proposed a toast twice, yet you gave him the cold shoulder. You should learn how to socialize and show some respect. Don’t embarrass yourself and others…” Kaze looked at Lilian and said coldly, “Forcing others to drink, that’s respect? If that’s the case, I respectfully ask you to drink all the alcohol on the table!” Lilian’s expression turned gloomy. Before she could speak, Greg beat her to it. He slammed the table and pointed at Kaze, shouting, “You piece of shit! Successful people are talking h
The sudden crash shocked everyone. “Aaaaah! What the fuck!?” Lilian screamed. Lilian was an avid supporter of the no-bra movement, so she never wore one when she went out. After being splashed by the alcohol, her nipples were revealed through the sheer from the wetness. She was so embarrassed that she quickly covered her breasts. “What the fuck?” Greg was furious as well. His face was covered with trash and alcohol, looking miserable. When he had a good look at the person on the table, he was even more infuriated. The man was one of his followers, Han. Han’s limbs were hanging from the table. He could not speak due to the pain. He was also Greg’s driver cum bodyguard, which explained his tall and buff figure. Yet he was thrown inside like a piece of trash. The one who hurt him must be powerful. Greg was scared but when he saw his man being beaten up, the fear was replaced by anger. It was not just hurting his man, but also his pride. He must find the person
“Greg, help!” Greg’s men cried and asked for help the moment they saw him. Greg was furious. He pointed at the young man and bellowed, “I order you to release them right now, or you will pay dearly!” “Pay dearly? Have you never seen blood? You dumb shit. Should I open your eyes?” said the young man with a grin. He grabbed a bottle of beer from the table and smashed it on the man’s head. Crank! The bottle was smashed into pieces, knocking out the already injured guy. The buff man released him, letting him fall onto the floor. His head started to bleed. The puddle of blood shocked everyone. Gasp! Lilian, Faye, and the others were horrified by the young man’s ruthlessness. Even Greg was shocked. The young man was no stranger to violence or blood. What was more terrifying had yet to come. Crank! Crank! The young man grabbed a bottle after another, smashing them onto the heads of Greg’s men. He looked casual and unfazed throughout the bloody and violent proce
Slap! Greg’s face burned. He covered his cheek and stepped back in anger and embarrassment. “You slapped me!? Have you heard of Red Foundation…” Slap! The young man slapped him once more before he could finish. “Bullshit. I’ve heard of Red Foundation but I just don’t give a shit.” Slap! A third slap landed on Greg’s face. “Greg!” Faye and the others were worried. If Greg got hurt and they did nothing, he would surely come after them next. Lilian stood as well. She stepped up and said, “Hey, do you know what this place is…” “This place?” The young man paused and glanced at Lilian. Lilian said strongly, “I’m Lilian Wheel, the person in charge of the supercar club in Sunrise! This bar is our branch here in Lilyrose!” “Supercar club?” Lilian grinned when he saw the reluctance on the young man’s face. The young man might not care about Red Foundation but he seemed to have heard of the supercar club. The club was founded for rich people with supercars to gather
The Butterworth Queens were on par with the Sunrise Lees. Compared to the Lee family, which had just risen to prominence in recent years, the Queen family had been around a lot longer, even longer than the Vinland family of Chrysant. Their resources and influences were unimaginably large. On top of that, the family preferred to keep a low profile and make money quietly. When the top three families of Lilyrose were taken down, every other company and family in the city tried to get a piece of the pie. The Lee and Vinland families tried but were defeated terribly. The Queen family was barely interested in the competition. They might be quiet but no one would truly ignore them or underestimate the benefits they gained from the collapse of the top three families. Red Foundation and the supercar club were considered rather influential, yet Greg and Lilian were merely executives. They could not fully represent their respective organizations. Therefore, they were powerless i
“Friend?” Slap! “Friends?” Slap! “Who do you think you are, calling yourself my friend? I was born into the Queen family! I do not need friends like you, you stupid dog!” Conan bellowed as he slapped Greg repeatedly. “What the fuck are you? An executive of Red Foundation? Hmph! Even if I crush you here and now, the foundation would have to clean up your mess instead of holding me responsible! “You even asked me to kneel? Who gave you the balls to say that to me?!” The last slap sent Greg flying to the floor. Greg did not resist at all. After he fell, he quickly got up and knelt before Conan. Conan’s words scared him. He completely offended Conan with his words earlier. Given Conan’s explosive temper, Greg might probably die on the spot. As Conan said, Red Foundation would probably resolve this peacefully and might have to clean up after Greg because he messed with the wrong person. No matter how influential Greg was in the foundation, once he died, the foundat
