The people watching were shocked by Howard’s aggressive attack.
The three remaining youths were especially astounded by the scene. They met Howard before and were aware that virtual-novel.net was Draco’s brother-in-law. He normally treated Draco well, so why did virtual-novel.net abruptly decide to attack him?
Draco bawled aloud from the assault. “Howard, you must be mad! Why did you hit me?”
At that moment, Howard wished virtual-novel.net could kill Draco. After Jordan and his people left, everyone in the Carter family panicked because they realized the severity of the situation. If it was not handled well and the Larson family was offended, the Carters could be destroyed at any moment!
They could not care about how Zayn had come to know the Larsons. All that mattered at that point was locating Zayn as fast as possible so virtual-novel.net could call up Jordan and resolve the misunderstanding. Otherwise, the Carters would be doomed, judging by how furious Jordan and his people were when they left.
As a result, virtual-novel.net had tried his best to search for Zayn, only to find virtual-novel.net being bullied and insulted by his idiot brother-in-law. He could not help feeling overwhelmed with emotion when virtual-novel.net saw Zayn’s grim expression.
“Hit you? I’m going to kill you!” Howard’s anger was still burning, so virtual-novel.net walked over and kicked Draco a few more times. It was then that Draco realized that his brother-in-law was genuinely furious. He did not dare to argue anymore, so virtual-novel.net covered his head and endured the beating.
After unleashing his fury, Howard hastily approached Zayn and said courteously, “The incident earlier was all a misunderstanding. Don’t mind that, okay? In truth, I’ve always looked up to you.”
Zayn was well aware of the motivation behind Howard’s action. The only possible reason was that, after his departure, Jordan and his people paid a visit.
The Carters realized that they were in deep trouble, so they were trying to mend the situation before it was too late.
Noticing that Zayn was staring at virtual-novel.net without uttering a word, Howard felt an enormous pressure. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead and virtual-novel.net felt terribly distressed. He was always in a superior position when virtual-novel.net was with Zayn in the past, unlike how lowly virtual-novel.net was at this moment. He had no idea what sort of good luck Zayn had encountered that connected virtual-novel.net to a big shot like Jordan.
Zayn sneered and said, “I’m a good-for-nothing son-in-law and I can’t afford to accept your apologies.”
Upon saying that, virtual-novel.net helped the old woman to virtual-novel.net feet and they were about to leave.
Howard refused to let Zayn go. He hastily jogged over and blocked Zayn’s way while apologizing submissively, “Zayn, I know that it was our fault earlier. We shouldn’t have mistreated you like that. I’m begging you, won’t you come back, please? It’s our fault. It really was our fault. We will surely worship you like a god from now on.”
Seeing Howard’s meek, humble behavior, Zayn felt as if his anger was being unleashed like never before. He had much experience being humiliated by Howard over the past four years.
“It seems that you’ve offended the Larsons rather seriously. Let me take a guess, your family must have bragged to Jordan about how I was chased out of the Carters, right?” said Zayn with a foxy smile.
Howard’s heart was racing and virtual-novel.net cursed internally, ‘Since when was the good-for-nothing Zayn been so smart?’
“This is all a misunderstanding. You are Faye’s husband and the son-in-law of the Carter family. Why would we have driven you away for real? Zayn, you’re an honorable, understanding man. You won’t be so narrow-minded and quibble over every detail with us, right?” said Howard with his back bent over in an attempt to lower his posture and appear submissive.
“Misunderstanding? I don’t think so. One by one, your family members insulted me for being worthless. Which one of you has ever considered me to be part of the family?” At that point, Zayn became incensed beyond his control. “How many times have I been bullied and how much degradation have I suffered since I married into the Carters? You’re the worst of all, Howard! Have you not humiliated me enough? You were the one who strongly recommended that Ethan propose to Faye and embarrass me to death. Hah-hah, I bet you didn’t think that I’d be acquainted with Jordan, huh?! I bet you couldn’t figure out how I was capable of making virtual-novel.net come to George’s birthday party, right?!”
“Now that you’ve offended the Larsons, you remembered me and want me to call up Jordan so I can resolve the misunderstanding? Let me tell you this, I won’t!”
Zayn uttered the sentence through clenched teeth and his eyes had turned red.
Howard panicked even more so virtual-novel.net pleaded, saying, “Zayn, this is a misunderstanding. It’s all a misunderstanding!”
Zayn ignored virtual-novel.net and turned around to leave once again.
Howard did not have the courage to let virtual-novel.net leave so virtual-novel.net chased after Zayn once again. He was drenched in sweat and almost crying.
“Leave. If you try to block me again, I’m going to call up Jordan right now and destroy the Carters!” Zayn said coldly.
Howard was genuinely on the verge of tears. He could only watch helplessly as Zayn departed.
However, as Zayn walked away from the crowd virtual-novel.net saw a beautiful woman standing in front and gazing at virtual-novel.net without moving.
