“If the people you called can scare me, I will break my arms and legs for you.” Kaze then slapped Cole again, sending him sliding away. The poor guy curled up on the ground and twitched in pain. “Don’t just stand there! Get him! Why do you think Cole is paying you?” The sultry woman shouted at the thugs, urging them to do something. A dozen of the thugs regained their senses and quickly jumped on Kaze. “Bro, I can take this.” Conan stepped in and volunteered to deal with the thugs, with his bare fists. Following a barrage of slaps and ceaseless cries, more than a dozen thugs were slapped to the ground. Ever since Conan started following Kaze, he learned from the best and realized slapping people in the face dealt the most damage, physically and emotionally. Cole never took Conan seriously before this. After Conan slapped all the thugs to the ground, Cole was terrified. He could not believe even Kaze’s followers were that strong. “Give me my phone, I have to call
Kaze sent Darcy a picture of the fish he ate for dinner and came up with all kinds of lame excuses to tell her that he was doing well in Riverbank, telling her not to worry. Darcy had no idea how ‘amazing’ Kaze’s first day in Riverbank was. Kaze smiled happily. Everyone said he was kicked out by his wife’s family but only he knew that if Darcy could, she would abandon everything just to accompany him in Riverbank. His happy smile felt like an insult to Cole. Vroom! Ten minutes later, expensive cars drove into the parking lot one after another. All the cars looked flamboyant with lights and decorations around it. One could tell the driver or the owner was a show-off. Cole had a lot of friends in Riverbank and he called all of them here just to support him. They might not be able to help him physically but they represented their family or organization. Their backgrounds and influences could easily threaten the ordinary. Cole planned for this the moment he dialed the n
Kaze might not sound as harsh as Cole but it sounded real. People in the parking lot knew that he was serious. They looked at him with eyes widened in disbelief. How dare a bumpkin like him challenge Cole in front of more than a hundred people? Cole did not expect Kaze’s bold challenge either. He stomped on the car and shouted, “Kaze Lee, if you keep pissing me off, you will only end up worse! When I get my hands on you, you will suffer even more!” Kaze scanned over the crowd and smiled. “Cole, if these pieces of trash are all you brought, then I would suggest you start kneeling and crawl toward the exit. There’s quite a distance, I’m afraid you might not make it outside in one night.” Cole was furious. “You motherfucker! Kaze Lee, you will know what are the consequences of pissing me off!” “Consequences? What consequences?” Kaze pursed his lips and said casually, “I just gave you a kick, a few slaps, and burned you with the cigar.” To the crowd, it sounded like Kaz
Collier heard that someone from another city came to Riverbank and challenged Cole. Without further ado, he decided to take the matter into his own hands. He failed to crush Kaze but he was confident this time. If this person decided to come all the way to their turf and challenge one of the most powerful people here, then he would suffer the consequences of doing so. Collier gathered his men and headed to the scene. “Mr. Ettinger, you are finally here!” “You’re hurt? You have to be more careful!” “Yeah. Young Master Collier, you are the representative of the younger generation here in Riverbank…” When Collier arrived in the parking lot, the other young men and women made way for him by stepping back and greeting him with the most flattering smile, trying to leave an impression on him. Listening to all the flattery, Collier felt a surge of pride welling inside him. The confidence that he lost returned to him. “Mr. Ettinger, you are finally here!” Cole jumped down
Collier laughed when he heard Cole. His gaze turned cold. He thought of Kaze, who was also arrogant. However, Kaze was powerful enough to be arrogant. As the branch leader of the West State Viper’s Den, the person appointed by Autumn Fall to cleanse the organization, it was normal for him to be arrogant. Yet how did some random guy from another city dare to act the same? “I’d like to see if this guy is really capable or just some liar,” Collier said coldly. The young women looked at the confident Collier with utmost admiration and respect. As the eldest son of the branch chief, Newell Ettinger, Collier could utilize his influence on the Viper’s Den South River Branch and also the resources of Golden Scale Corporation. A man with such power would be the ideal husband candidate for every woman out there. All of them looked at Kaze as if he was a dead man. No matter how arrogant Kaze was or what he did to Cole, all would end as Collier arrived. A loser like him had n
“Kaze Lee, I thought you were a show-off. Come on, now that Mr. Ettinger is here, why don’t you call him a dog again?” Cole said with a smirk. He was standing in front of Collier, so he did not see the shift of expression on Collier’s face. Collier’s expression turned bitter. Kaze glanced at him and then smiled. “Collier, why don’t you bark for him?” His words stunned everyone again. They assumed he continued to court death with his words. Pft! Cole burst out in laughter. He called Kaze a stupid idiot inwardly. He provoked Kaze to disrespect Collier and Kaze fell for it. Kaze did not only do as told, but he did it worse than before. He was practically digging his own grave. “Mr. Ettinger, you hear that? Kaze Lee called you a dog and wanted you to bark in front of us. He disrespected you and the Viper’s Den South River Branch! “If I were you, I would break his arms and make him bark like a dog!” Cole then turned around to Collier with a smirk as he tried to fan t
Collier put his bandaged hands in front of his chest and barked like a dog, looking ridiculous. Everyone else was stunned by the scene yet once again. One word from Kaze and the eldest son of the Ettingers, a prominent figure of the Viper’s Den South River Branch, knelt and barked like a dog! What happened? Everyone’s mind went blank. No one understood what happened. Kaze said, “Kneel straight.” Woof! Woof! Seeing Kaze roll up his sleeve, Collier moved forward on his knee and straightened his back to extend his face for Kaze. Slap! Kaze slapped Collier in the face. The powerful momentum turned his face to the left. “I told you and Hannah to settle Josiah Dubb and you came here to crush me?” Collier was in so much pain. He gasped but he dared not argue. Slap! Kaze slapped his face back to the right. “Did you think I let you live so that you can continue to act like a bully?” Collier clenched his teeth tightly and dared not make a noise. Slap! Kaze slapp
Everyone knew how arrogant Collier was in the underworld of Riverbank. In fact, he could even disregard the government officials, let alone the young masters or gangsters from another city. After all, with the Viper’s Den behind his back, no one dared to disrespect him. Yet one word from Kaze turned the man into the most loyal dog. Ridiculous. Cole did not expect Collier to demand him to apologize. He flushed red and argued, “Collier, this stupid idiot is just a live-in husband who got kicked out. He came to Riverbank to be a freeloader, why should I kneel before him…” Bang! Before Cole could finish, Collier jumped up and landed another kick on his stomach. Bang! Thump! Thud! Collier kicked Cole furiously, causing the arrogant young man to cry excruciatingly. “You little piece of shit! Who gave you the balls to challenge Mr. Lee?!” Thump! “You ungrateful fuck! Mr. Lee can crush you with his pinky!” Woosh! “How dare you look down on Mr. Lee?! You ignorant stu
