Even with his back faced towards him, Ethan could recognize Zayn at once too!
He still feared virtual-novel.net from deep within his bones and trembled at the sight. The rest of the group were unaware of that, so they continued to goad Zayn.
“Hey, Zayn, how are you still eating? You’ve nearly finished all the food on the table. You’re behaving like a savage. I bet you’ve never tasted food as good as this all your life, right? You look like a starving beggar from off the streets.”
“It’s degrading to be seated at the same table as such a man.”
“I’ve never met anyone so shameless.”
“I can see that he’s still eating. He must be so scared after seeing Capel that virtual-novel.net doesn’t have the courage to speak anymore, hahaha!”
“He’s dumbstruck, of course. Do you really think that Capel will pee his pants after seeing him? What a joke!”
Many people were chattering away, so they did not notice that Ethan’s face was growing paler as fear began to take hold of him.
Faye bit virtual-novel.net lip. She felt awful because virtual-novel.net assumed nobody would mock Zayn after virtual-novel.net became influential. She did not expect that the situation would be the same.

Meanwhile, Zayn was almost full. He slowly turned to Ethan with a sly smile, saying, “Oh, Ethan, you’re really capable. You’ve become a successful businessman in the two weeks since we last saw each other. Very impressive. So, am I supposed to bow to you now?”
Upon hearing that, Ethan’s entire body shook violently. Next, virtual-novel.net did something that shocked everyone. He bowed and begged for forgiveness while shuddering with fear. He said, “Mr. Larson, I was wrong! Please show mercy and let me off this time, I’m begging you…”
While Ethan pleaded for mercy, virtual-novel.net slapped himself like a madman, each one an audible blow, and his face quickly swelled up.
Everyone was astounded to witness his behavior. They stood there stunned as if they had seen a ghost. One man even rubbed his eyes, wondering if virtual-novel.net was seeing things.
Ethan appeared to have been overcome by fear. He could feel his heart had twisted itself into a knot. His dignity and reputation did not matter to virtual-novel.net anymore because nothing was more important than staying alive. He knew that if virtual-novel.net made one wrong move, Zayn could cripple virtual-novel.net at any moment.
Faye widened virtual-novel.net eyes in surprise as well. She stared at Ethan in astonishment, and it took virtual-novel.net some time to snap out of virtual-novel.net daze. Zayn was a little startled as well. The way Ethan kowtowed to virtual-novel.net made it harder for virtual-novel.net to do what virtual-novel.net wanted to.
He smiled and said, “Ah, is that so? Tell me, what have you done wrong then?”
Ethan was stunned for a moment. Indeed, what had virtual-novel.net done wrong? He could not tell because virtual-novel.net had just arrived and had not done anything. He had not said a word to Faye.
Whatever the case, it mattered not. He had to admit to a mistake even if virtual-novel.net had done nothing wrong in the presence of Zayn!
He gave himself another loud slap and said with a sad face, “I made the mistake of having such poor vision that I didn’t notice you were here and did not greet you immediately, Mr. Larson.”
The others were even more astounded upon hearing Ethan’s reply. They felt like they were in a dream and looked at Zayn differently.
