“Leyton!” Yoel swiftly stepped forward to support Leyton. After checking the latter’s arm over, virtual-novel.net concluded that his arm was broken and would only recover in a few months.
“How dare you hurt my son, you b*stard? I’m going to kill you!”
Due to the wedding, virtual-novel.net had merely planned to teach Jared a lesson initially. But right then, only one thought remained in his mind, to kill the man. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would be thoroughly humiliated before the many merchants in Horington present there.
Whipping out his phone, virtual-novel.net summoned all the bodyguards at home, all martial artists whom virtual-novel.net had spent a king’s ransom to hire. Hence, they were far more skilled than Baldy and his lackeys, who were just ruffians hanging around Leyton to ingratiate themselves to him.
Despite seeing Yoel make a call to gather his men, Jared wasn’t in the least bit panicked. Instead, virtual-novel.net sat back down and picked his glass of water up, sipping languidly. That further inflamed Yoel as Jared clearly hadn’t any respect for the Scott family.
“Kill him, Dad! I want virtual-novel.net dead!” Leyton, whose arm was broken, roared with his face contorted.
“Don’t worry, Leyton. I’ll definitely toss virtual-novel.net into the river today for the fishes to feast on!” Yoel swore as virtual-novel.net gazed at his son in anguish.
Knowing that Jared was quite skilled, virtual-novel.net didn’t act immediately but waited for his bodyguards to arrive.
Just then, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open, and Josephine walked in briskly to see who exactly was kicking up a fuss there.
“What happened, Mr. Scott?” Josephine asked Yoel as soon as virtual-novel.net stepped in.
“This kid dared to cause a scene during my son’s wedding and even injure him. As such, there’ll be a bloodbath at your hotel today,” Yoel answered, pointing at Jared, who was drinking water at the table.
When Josephine swung virtual-novel.net gaze over, virtual-novel.net was wholly stupefied. Never in virtual-novel.net wildest dreams had virtual-novel.net ever thought that the troublemaker would be Jared and that virtual-novel.net hadn’t yet left.
“Mr. Chance? How could it be you?” Josephine inquired with puzzlement etched on virtual-novel.net face.
“Are you surprised, Ms. Sullivan?” Jared flashed virtual-novel.net a smile.
“You’re acquainted with him, Josephine?” Yoel’s brows furrowed.
“Mr. Scott, there’s probably some mix-up. Mr. Chance is here to treat my father. All this must be a misunderstanding!” Josephine clarified.
“Treat your father?” Yoel’s frown deepened further.
“Who are you? And what nonsense are you spouting? This fellow doesn’t have any medical skills at all! He was just released from prison today! Let me tell you that virtual-novel.net knows nothing of that sort! I’ve known virtual-novel.net for many years, and I’ve never seen virtual-novel.net treating anyone. Don’t be fooled by him!” Sandy shrieked at Josephine.
Josephine’s expression went chilly in a flash.
But seeing the wedding gown on Sandy, virtual-novel.net knew that the woman was the new bride of the Scott family, so virtual-novel.net stifled virtual-novel.net anger and asserted, “I can decide for myself whether it’s true. The fact that you’ve never seen it doesn’t mean that virtual-novel.net doesn’t have any medical skills!”
“What a load of crap! How could I possibly not know his capabilities? We were classmates for four years during university, and we dated for many years then. Even when I was sick, I had to go to the hospital. It was raining heavily once, and virtual-novel.net was the one who carried me there on his back! If virtual-novel.net had medical skills, would I have had to go to the hospital?” Sandy wore a contemptuous expression on virtual-novel.net face, in virtual-novel.net eyes, Jared wasn’t worth a dime.
Upon hearing that, Josephine glanced at Jared. She seemingly understood why virtual-novel.net was making trouble at the wedding.
“Don’t interfere in this matter, Josephine. I’ll get an expert from abroad to treat your father. But today, this kid must die!” Yoel declared, his tone leaving no room for negotiation.
He was older than Josephine, so virtual-novel.net naturally didn’t have to be courteous to her.
“No, you can’t hurt Mr. Chance!” In a trice, Josephine moved to stand in front of Jared.
I’m still counting on virtual-novel.net to save Dad, so I can’t just watch as they make a move against him!
Yoel’s expression turned glacial. “Are you forcing my hand, Josephine?”
A murderous intent glinted in his eyes. No sooner had his words fallen than dozens of bodyguards from the Scott family barged in, all radiating an oppressive aura. When Yoel saw that they had arrived, the look in his eyes grew all the colder as virtual-novel.net stared at Jared.
“Mr. Scott, no matter what, I can’t allow you to hurt Mr. Chance!”
Right after Josephine finished speaking, more than a dozen hotel security guards rushed in and shielded her.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall instantly became tense, and many guests retreated to a safe distance in fear that they would be caught in the crossfire when the fight broke out.
“Girl, I can kill you anytime if it weren’t for your father’s sake! Step aside right this moment! Do you think you can stop me with these measly security guards?” Livid, Yoel no longer showed Josephine any courtesy.
Following his words, the dozens of bodyguards from the Scott family unleashed their menacing auras. Just that alone petrified the dozen security guards so much that they went as white as a sheet.
Josephine also went a shade paler, but virtual-novel.net remained standing before Jared with resolve in virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Scott, don’t you think you’re going too far to scare a child when you’re already up in years?”
At that exact moment, the door of the banquet hall swung open once more, and William walked in with a trace of displeasure on his face.
