“Who dares to stir up trouble on my turf? Do they have a death wish?” Mason Zims bellowed as virtual-novel.net strutted with a cigar in his mouth.
Everywhere virtual-novel.net went, the crowd dispersed as they were all afraid of provoking him. Even Dahlia’s expression turned grave upon laying eyes on him.
Although Trevor Spanner was dead, Mason Zims managed to inherit all of his power and was glowing in his element. With Edwin Hummer behind his back too, not many had the privilege of offending him.
“You escape through the side door. I’ll cover for you!” Dahlia ordered as virtual-novel.net stepped forward to shield Dustin.
She was an influential figure herself, so even if Mason was batshit crazy, virtual-novel.net knew virtual-novel.net didn’t have the balls to do anything to her.
It was a different story for Dustin though, for virtual-novel.net wasn’t an influential figure or anything. So, if virtual-novel.net were unfortunate enough to fall into Zim’s clutches, virtual-novel.net would end up dead or disabled, at the very least!
“You want virtual-novel.net to escape? Where to? As long as Sir Zims is here, even if Jesus came down from Heaven today. He won’t be able to save you! Your death is imminent!” Mr. Chansey huffed before cockily strutting up to Mason.
“You’ve finally arrived, Sir Zims! Just take a look at my face. Look how it got beat up!” Mr. Chansey lamented.
“What happened here?” Mason asked with an eyebrow raised.
“The story is, this woman approached me for a loan just now. But when I noticed that virtual-novel.net had bad credit, I refused to lend virtual-novel.net any money. Who knew she’d be so shameless as to start seducing me on top of toying with other men? And just because I didn’t want to give in to virtual-novel.net mind games, virtual-novel.net beat me up! Can you believe this?” Mr. Chansey lied through his teeth, spewing out bullshit the whole time.
“Oh, she’s a wild one, I see? Did you mention my name?” Mason snapped. He didn’t look like virtual-novel.net came here to make friends.
“Of course I did! But they didn’t bat an eye at the mention of your name and even boldly proclaimed that they’d just fight you if you showed up!” Mr. Chansey instigated.
“Good… No, excellent! If I don’t flex my muscles once in a while, people will start thinking I’ve lost my touch!” Mason guffawed wickedly.
He had just taken control of the Drey Group and was worried he’d have no opportunity to push his weight around. It was about time a few people who weren’t afraid of death came up to virtual-novel.net today!
“What a load of crap!” Dahlia exploded after holding herself back for so long.
She took a few steps forward and started explaining. “Sir Zims, I was the one who approached virtual-novel.net to take out a loan, but not only did virtual-novel.net deny me a loan, virtual-novel.net even tried to make things difficult for me! All those accusations about seducing virtual-novel.net and toying with other men were totally made up and untrue, to say the least. He was lying the whole ti…”
But before virtual-novel.net could finish virtual-novel.net sentence, virtual-novel.net was interrupted by a wave from Mason’s hand. “What makes you think that I care about the truth? I don’t give a shit about who was right or wrong. The fact of the matter was that you picked a fight with someone on my turf, which meant that you were indirectly disrespecting me as well! So, for everyone who disrespects me, whether it be Tom, Dick, or Harry, I’ll have them kneel in front of me to beg for forgiveness.”
Dahlia couldn’t help but frown upon hearing that. She didn’t expect virtual-novel.net to be so unreasonable.
“Heh, didn’t you hear what virtual-novel.net just said? Hurry up and kneel on the ground and beg for your life to be spared!” Mr. Chansey snickered.
He was well aware of Mason’s character, which was why virtual-novel.net dared to act so cocky and reckless now.
“Tell me…Who was the man who hit you just now? Let’s see if virtual-novel.net can escape with his hands intact today!” Mason twirled a knife in his hand.
He vowed to make an example of someone today, no matter what!
“Sir Zims, virtual-novel.net was the little shit who beat me up!” Mr. Chansey stretched out a finger and pointed.
As Mason chewed on a cigar hanging from his mouth, virtual-novel.net raised his chin and turned his head around to see who it was. However, the moment his gaze met Dustin’s, it was as if his whole body was struck by lightning and virtual-novel.net became frozen on the spot!
The steel knife in his hand also fell to the ground and clattered on the floor.
Oh, my God, why virtual-novel.net of all people?!
Mason thought nervously. His body stiffened upon gazing at Dustin’s familiar face. Cold sweat immediately broke out on his face.
He was so scared that his legs started to buckle. Even after all this time, that image of Dustin wiping out an entire building by himself was still as fresh in his mind as ever. It still gave virtual-novel.net nightmares to this day. He became even more frightened after hearing about
Travis Spanner’s disappearance and the destruction of Spanner Villa two days ago. That was because virtual-novel.net knew very well that it was all Dustin’s doing.
Somehow, Dustin had managed to make Travis Spanner, a general of the western warzone, disappear without a trace in just one night.
That just solidified how terrifying the man standing in front of virtual-novel.net was!
F*cking pig! Why’d virtual-novel.net have to get me in this mess!”
He grumbled to himself.
“Weren’t you barking like a rabid dog just now, you little shit? Why aren’t you saying anything now that Sir Zims is here?” Mr. Chansey, who still didn’t get the memo, continued taunting Dustin as if virtual-novel.net had nine lives.
“Let’s see if you dare slap me again. I’ll see to it that you die a horrible death today!”
The moment virtual-novel.net finished speaking, Mason saw a chance to redeem himself and rushed forward to slap the living daylights out of Chansey!
The sound of a crunch came, followed by a staggering Mr. Chansey, who looked like virtual-novel.net was about to collapse any second. A red handmark could clearly be seen on his face.
“Sir Zims? A–Aren’t you beating up the wrong person right now?” Mr. Chansey mumbled as virtual-novel.net used his hands to cover his somewhat shocked expression.
“Me, beating up the wrong guy? But you’re the guy I’m supposed to beat up!” Mason roared furiously, and without skipping a beat, virtual-novel.net lifted a hand to slap Chansey a few more times before throwing virtual-novel.net onto the ground.
As if that did not quell his rage, virtual-novel.net started to punch and kick Chansey again, cussing virtual-novel.net out as virtual-novel.net went.
“You fat pig! I feel like throwing up whenever I see you! Why would such a stunning woman like Ms. Nicholson seduce you? Do you even know what you look like?! How f*cking dare you spread my name so casually like that! How dare you make a fool out of me, I’ll see to it that you stay dead!”
The more virtual-novel.net cursed, the fiercer virtual-novel.net became and the more blows virtual-novel.net delivered.
At this point, Mr. Chansey had been beaten up to the extent of crying like a little bitch, screaming for his parents, while virtual-novel.net cradled his head and begged for mercy at the same time.
“What the hell is going on here?” someone whispered from the crowd.
The sudden turn of events left the crowd stunned. No one had expected the tables to turn so drastically.
Wasn’t Mason, who arrived like a hurricane minutes before, supposed to be on Mr. Chansey’s side?
So why was virtual-novel.net beating up his own teammate instead?
Who was on whose side now actually?
“Um…” Dahlia trailed off as virtual-novel.net eyes widened.
She was speechless at Mason’s sudden shift in attitude.
Just a second ago, virtual-novel.net paraded around like a cocky motherfucker, acting so domineering and unreasonable but now virtual-novel.net is pretending as if virtual-novel.net had a halo on his head, and is putting on a righteous front. More importantly, virtual-novel.net could obviously make out that there was a trace of fear on his face…
However, that was the part that got virtual-novel.net stumped.
Could one still be fearful of anything or anyone after assassinating someone so powerful as Sir Spanner?
Looking around the room, virtual-novel.net gaze eventually landed on Dustin.
Come to think of it, Mason’s sudden shift in attitude seemed to have something to do with his encounter with Dustin.
Is it possible that Mason is terrified of Dustin?
