A crisp sound rang in the air as Edwin took the slap right on the face.A red palm print appeared on his cheek, gleaming viciously. The wretched sight was a humiliating one, indeed.“Kaitlyn!” Edwin growled, having lost all his patience.The moment his voice came out, the Parson family’s bodyguards charged forward.They pointed their firearms at Edwin’s head.If Edwin were to make any sudden moves, they wouldn’t hesitate to pull the trigger.Harvey and Leslie exited the crowd as well.“You think you can just call my name as you please?”“You think you have the right for that?” Kaitlyn demanded, her tone disdainful.“The Mendoza family is just a first-rated family! You think you’re some hotshot here just because your sister has control over the Dragon Palace’s branch, don’t you?”“Did you forget that you only got this far thanks to the Hamilton family?”“You cling onto the Hamilton family, then you get close to Harvey…”“Does your family even have dignity?”“Let me tell you
Edwin’s eyes were twitching as he looked at Kaitlyn’s smug face. His right hand was trembling, but in the end, he never swung it.Or rather, he forced himself back with all his might.Slap!When Kaitlyn saw that Edwin was remaining still, she slapped him on the other side of his face.“Filth! You’re all bark and no show! You look impressive, but you can’t even do anything!”“You won’t even fight back after getting hit by a woman!”“Do you have no shame?!”“Do you?!”Edwin was completely humiliated by Kaitlyn.‘Even when he’s one of the young masters of Las Vegas, he wouldn’t even fight back against me!’‘How useless can he be?!’‘At this point, he should just die!’Edwin covered his face, blood beginning to seep out of his lips. He looked utterly miserable, presenting an extremely horrible sight.The people watching burst out laughing and clinked their glasses in amusement as they delighted in the show. Some were even filming the entire thing with their phones.A young ma
“Besides, that’s the Johnson family’s share. Not yours! You don’t even have the right to decide for them!”“Or are you saying that your master’s already too scared to come at us? Is that why he’s okay with such humiliating terms?”Kaitlyn glared coldly at Edwin. Clearly, she wanted to see how he would react so she could proceed with her plan accordingly.Yet, Edwin remained composed.“Enough nonsense, Ms. Parson. I’ll ask you again: are you willing to accept the conditions or not?”Kaitlyn got closer and sized up Edwin, before approaching him to whisper in his ear.“Of course I’m willing to accept such good terms. But what a shame! I didn’t take Ms. Johnson away!”“Even if I did… Since your master’s making such great efforts to save her, wouldn’t it be more fun if I just keep her here and watch the Johnson family part ways with him?”“Your master thinks he can cause such a big commotion in Hong Kong and Las Vegas just because he’s a little smart and talented?”“He’s being naiv
“So what if I am?”“So what if I want to disrespect you?”Kaitlyn strode back to her couch calmly before sinking in it, crossing her legs haughtily.A faint smile hung on her lips as she looked at Edwin with a glare filled with contempt. “Are you about to lash out after trying so hard to swallow all that humiliation?”“Or are you going to hit me now?”“Go on! Try it!”“I’d love to see how you’ll do it!”“You…”Edwin was about to take a step forward when orderly footsteps could be heard from behind.Several uniformed people, armed to the teeth, surrounded the entire courtyard.Yoana, who was dressed in the same uniform, emerged out of the crowd with grand steps.“You dare touch someone from my family, Kaitlyn? Have you asked yourself this?”“Can you bear the consequences for doing such a thing?!”Yoana’s expression worsened when she got a glimpse of her brother’s swollen face and tattered clothes.“Oh mt! Isn’t this the lady of the Mendoza family, Helm Yoana Mendoza hers
Yoana’s pretty face became ice-cold, and her deadly frown could freeze ice. Louis’s slap had crossed her line.She represented Hong Kong and Las Vegas’ Dragon Palace branch, as well as Harvey’s interests.She would never allow herself to be slapped in the face that easily.In retaliation, she whipped out her elegant firearm.“You really think my title as helm is just for show, Louis?” she exclaimed, her voice an icy hiss.“Do you think I won’t kill you?”At her behest, her subordinates leaned forward with the safeties of their firearms off and aimed right at Louis.However, this deterrence was clearly useless against Louis. He glanced at Yoana, fearless, and snarled, “You barged in Emerald Club and challenged Kaitlyn’s authority! Of course you need a slap in the face!”“Let me tell you something, Yoana…”“Your title might be able to scare most people, but it can’t scare me! You think you have the right to stand up for your brother?!”“Dream on!”“Looks like you’re ready to g
“Hahahaha!”“Filth will always be filth!”“You’re all just trash!”“Look at yourselves!”Louis kept laughing maniacally as he gloated at Edwin and the others’ sorry state.“You people dare to show off in front of me?!”“You’re the ones bringing justice?!”“Hah! I haven’t even thrown my babies out yet, but you’re all already this terrified!”“If I really did it, you would’ve all burst into tears by now!”“All of you are really useless!”“The Mendoza family? The Clarke family?”“Stop joking around!”“You only got your statuses because nobody’s there to steal your spot!”“You think you’re so awesome to the point you’re on par with people like us?!”“Are you even worthy?!”Louis tapped Edwin on the face, arrogance seeping from his every pore. Helena and other beautiful women covered their mouths and giggled snidely.After tonight, both the Clarke and the Mendoza family would turn into Hong Kong and Las Vegas’s biggest jokes.Edwin shot a deadly glare at Louis. If only th
“Number two: if you don’t want to die, kneel and give yourself ten slaps in the face. Apologize as you should, and only then I’ll let you off the hook.”“Choose how you want to play. I’ll stick with you till the end. How’s that sound?”Harvey’s tone was very casual, as if he had Louis by the neck.Louis’s eyes frantically twitched before he released his murderous intent.“Who the hell are you?!”He wanted to send Harvey flying with a kick, but he realized that Harvey had his hand clasped like a handcuff.If Harvey used a little more force, the grenade in his hand would fall to the ground. If that were to happen, everyone would be dragged down and die together.Thus, Louis didn’t dare do anything rash.“It doesn’t matter who I am. What’s important here is your choice.”Harvey exerted slightly more force as he went on speaking nonchalantly.“If you really can’t choose, I’ll do it for you.”A loud crack could be heard from Louis’s hand after Harvey exerted more strength into hi
Louis’s expression changed constantly, his arrogance long gone.This was utterly humiliating for him.He had roamed the Dark Island and was well-known for being fearless.Yet, at this moment, he was completely suppressed by another person.The man turned out to be a lot more ruthless than him. The grenade would explode at any second, and people were really going to die.Louis thought that he didn’t fear death, and that he could scare everyone off with this fact.But today, the man that showed up out of nowhere made him realize the fear in his heart.His arrogant and domineering attitude was built upon his lack of fear toward death.But after having no control over the entire situation, after realizing that there was a chance he would perish in someone else’s hand…Just like everyone else, he would instantly give up without breaking a sweat!This realization twisted Louis’s face into a horrible expression of fear.“You’ve got guts, kid! Are you one of Mendoza’s men?! State yo
