Chapter 39
Receiving Tristan’s command, the two subordinates rolled up their sleeves and shot icy looks at Casper, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Dude, chill. I’m just voicing out my opinion.” Casper cast a glance at Tristan, feigning ignorance. “If you don’t want to hear it, I’ll keep my mouth shut.”
As for the fierce-looking muscular men in front of him, he could not care less about them. Currently, he had his eyes fixed on Tristan. This b*stard has been using the power of Firewolf Chamber to attack his savior unscrupulously. Nevertheless, I believe Steed has a Plan B in tackling Tristan. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have chosen to meet Tristan alone in the office.
Despite Casper’s protest, Tristan did not want to hear any more from him. He gritted his teeth and shouted to his subordinates, “Throw him out! Now!”
“Why don’t you let me watch this fascinating show? This is just like a modern adaptation of the fable, The Farmer and the Viper. Don’t you think that it’s interesting, too? You should let me watch this play.” Casper continued to act goofy.
He wanted to provoke Tristan on purpose so that he could have a reason to beat them up in front of Stallion and his father.
Besides, he also did not want Sands Project to fall into Tristan’s hands. It has such a strategic location. If I can have a share in it, I’m sure I can reap substantial profits from it.
Tristan rammed his fist into the armrest, the veins on his forehead throbbed with exasperation. “Are you two deaf? Take him down!”
“You don’t get to do whatever you want here. This is my place.” Steed could not stand Tristan anymore. “Tristan, what he said is true. You’re indeed the same as the viper in the fable!”
“Viper? I don’t care if I’m a serpent or not. You have to sign this today!” Tristan roared, staring at Steed intensely. A moment later, a smirk surfaced on his face as he fished out a few photos from a document holder and hurled them onto the desk. “You wouldn’t want your son to get into trouble, do you? Do you know he’s been using the name of Firewolf Chamber to collect protection money recently? Did you enjoy yourself, Stallion?”
Before Stallion could answer him, Steed exclaimed, “What do you mean? These photos don’t mean anything.”
As he spoke, one of his eyebrows twitched uncontrollably. It was clear as day that he had no idea about his son’s misdeed. Although he was infuriated, he composed himself and kept his cool.
“Yes, they don’t mean anything, but, for some, these photos might mean a lot.” Tristan flicked a disdainful look at Stallion. “Old man, if I pass these to the police, your son will probably be convicted and become a criminal. If I were you, I would sign this as soon as possible. Your useless son is more important, isn’t it?”
“Y-you…” Steed shook like a leaf, his fists clenched tightly.
“I’ll bear the full responsibility of it,” Stallion growled, giving Tristan a fierce glare. “Don’t Firewolf Chamber do it as well? You guys even physically assault them if they refuse to give the money!”
“Where is your evidence? If you have none, I can sue you for slander.” Tristan snorted, looking down his nose at Stallion.
No doubt he knew about the criminal activities Firewolf Chamber of Commerce had done recently. Even though many were affected, no one dared to report them due to their notoriety.
The reason they could act with such impunity was because of the support they had from the powerful forces behind them.
His brazen statement and attitude totally infuriated Casper and Elena.
Isn’t the wrecking of Tycoon the work of Firewolf Chamber? This guy is absolutely shameless.
Seeing Tristan’s arrogant attitude, Casper interrupted again, “Haha, this play is really engrossing. Tristan, the Viper, has finally revealed his fangs. I wonder what happens next.”
He paid no mind to Tristan’s furious expression and continued, “Oh, by the way, I heard that you wanted to buy Sands Project with five hundred thousand. Can you give it to me if I pay you six hundred thousand?”
He sounded as if he was not intimidated by the power of Firewolf Chamber of Commerce.
“Do you have a death wish?” Tristan finally realized that Casper was not only making trouble on purpose but also picking a fight with him. Ultimately, he waved his hand and squawked, “You two, don’t let him leave here alive!”
“Yes!” The two brawny brutes clenched their fists, and the muscles on their arms bulged menacingly as they sprinted toward Casper and swung their fists toward his head. If the punches were hit spot on, he would definitely suffer severe traumatic brain injuries and need to be sent to the emergency department right away.
Thump! Thump!
When their fists were about five centimeters from Casper’s head, Casper’s fists struck upon their heads so heavily that they saw stars instantly.
Not giving them any chance to fight back, he bashed them over and over again. Before the others could react to the sight, the two subordinates of Tristan had rendered powerless as they sprawled across the floor, wailing in pain.
“Must you all force me to take action?” Casper dusted his hands and headed over to pat Tristan on his shoulder. “Oh, by the way, why did you bring only two men? Where are the rest? You might as well call them out at once. Let’s not waste any more time, and let me settle all of them in one go. I was initially here to watch a show, but since you forced my hand, don’t blame me for hurting your men.”
“W-Who are you? Don’t you fear to face wrath from Firewolf Chamber?” Tristan stuttered in fear.
The two subordinates he brought were once boxing champions, but Casper had defeated both of them in mere seconds.
This guy’s combat skills are beyond formidable. Is he a monster?
“Huh? Of course, I’m scared. Even my heart is racing out of fear now.” Casper patted his chest lightly with a feigned frightened look. “I’m just here to watch a play, remember? Oh, I’m interested in Sands Project as well, but I’m different from you. I’m here to establish a collaboration, not snatching the project.”
“Oh, okay.” Tristan nodded in reply.
However, he was no fool. Knowing that Casper was an exceptional fighter, he smiled obsequiously and said, “You’re definitely something else. If you’re willing to work for me, I’ll forgive you for offending me just now. What do you think?”
