“Aaagh!”An intense, agonized scream was heard as Seth spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood before he dropped to his knees with his mouth wide open.He was panted heavily and his face was flushed.Seth had lost his self-assuming, lofty expression. Sweat poured down from his forehead and dripped down his face, and the teeth in his mouth had all vanished without a trace. His face was very swollen as well.His expression was filled with awkwardness and he was at a loss for what to do next.Tiffany was stupefied and her expression was filled with astonishment.The rest were shocked too.Seth was on his knees with his hands over his abdomen. He felt extremely regretful at this moment. He would not have stepped forward if he had known that this would happen.The reason why he chose to step forward was that he found Adrian to be off-putting. He felt that Adrian was stealing his limelight such that the alumni had neglected his presence. Yet, he failed to consider whose fault it was

Kai was drunk while Seth got beaten up. Tiffany was left all alone.She initially planned to be the center of attention and bask in the flattery from the other alumni. Not only had she not received any flattery, but she even encountered this situation and felt so embarrassed that she blushed scarlet.It could be said that Tiffany was overwhelmed with feelings of displeasure, and was on the verge of despair. She never expected this to happen.Ignoring Tiffany’s mood, Samantha said to the waitress, “How much is the total bill, miss? How much is it per person? Please get the bill for us so we can check.”The waitress smiled and grabbed the menu to calculate briefly before she announced, “Miss, your total is three million and three hundred thousand dollars. There are a total of ten people here so each person’s portion is three hundred and thirty thousand dollars.”Wow!Everyone was instantly stunned from hearing the total amount while Tiffany felt a crushing blow.Everyone was astou

Tiffany was so scared upon hearing Adrian’s remark that she was shaking.She hastily hid her necklace. She had gone through a lot of trouble to persuade Kai to get her the necklace, rings, and other jewelry as they had cost quite a tidy sum.She did not wish to pay for a meal today with her jewelry.Noticing that Tiffany could not pay, the waitress immediately raised her walkie-talkie and shouted, “Sir, a customer in VIP Room Seventeen can’t afford to pay for their meal! Please come and handle this!”Upon saying that, the waitress looked at Tiffany and said, “Don’t spend lavishly if you can’t afford to pay.”Tiffany was so scared that she was shaking from head to toe.The other alumni did not have the courage to speak because the situation was now grave. Not even they had expected the meal to cost more than three million dollars. Very few would ever make this much money in their entire lives.Meanwhile, Tiffany cast her gaze toward Seth and said through her tears, “Please help m

A few people immediately ran over to Kai, pulled him off the sofa, and started beating him up.Kai was utterly unaware of what was happening. He opened his mouth and threw up again.Then, they searched his body and took all his valuables. A couple of others stepped on Tiffany’s hair and ripped off her necklace and rings. They even took a few slaps at Tiffany.She did not have the courage to fight back even after she toppled to the ground from the impact of the slaps.After they were done beating her, someone approached Raymond with the items collected from Tiffany and Kai. “Sir, there’s a key to a Mercedes Benz. The car is worth more than one hundred thousand dollars. Combined with these items, they should come up to about four hundred thousand, right?”Raymond took the car key, necklace, and other valuables from his subordinate and checked them out. He weighed the items in his hand and said, “I didn’t know that he’s a rich kid. However, these items will only cover four hundred th

Raymond was caught off guard.He had not expected someone to have the audacity to contradict him in his own territory.All at once, Raymond pulled a long face and raised his club toward Adrian’s face. He said coldly, “Boy, it takes guts to say something like that. However, this is my territory and I get the final say. Would you like to have a taste of being beaten up too?”The rest of the people were scared out of their wits. James, Tessa, and the others were shaking profusely.Tiffany got up from the ground and watched the scene in fear.Adrian furrowed his eyebrows, and all of a sudden, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Raymond’s club. A crack was heard when the club was snapped.Raymond was so startled that he staggered a few steps backward.Adrian said, “I won’t repeat what I said, and don’t you dare be so audacious in my presence.”Raymond flew into a rage from the defeat. He knew that he would be regarded as a coward if he yielded to Adrian. “F*ck, this one’s quite

The waitress was already done with the payment when Adrian got downstairs.She made her way to Adrian respectfully and passed the card to him with both hands. “Mr. Adrian, your card has been swiped.”Adrian took the card and left Black Mamba with the alumni.Meanwhile, Raymond tottered down the step, his entire body drenched in a cold sweat.“What’s that man’s background?” Raymond asked the waitress with a panicked expression.She bit her lip and said, “His card was issued by Wyvern Peak.”“What?! Wyvern Peak?!”Raymond’s jaw dropped and he had a hard time closing it. He realized that he had tried to one-up the war legate.He almost broke down right there and then. It was fortunate that he realized that something was off before it was too late. Otherwise, he would have been dead by now.Raymond was silently shaking.***Samantha and the others felt relieved after leaving the hotel.Tiffany was especially relieved as she walked amongst the crowd with her head hung in embarra

Seth put down the phone after making the call and his gaze landed on Samantha’s departing silhouette. He felt anger rising in his chest and was filled with boundless murderous intent.He wanted to get revenge!***Samantha drove and headed to New Paraiso with Adrain.Suddenly, her phone rang.She pulled out her phone and was instantly overjoyed. The number displayed on the screen belonged to someone she had not spoken to for a long time yet was extremely important to her.It was Joanna—the woman who co-founded Bailar with her.Joanna was Samantha’s best friend. They had been as close as sisters for the four years they were in university. They co-founded Bailar after graduation, and Joanna’s father sent her abroad when Bailar was in its growth phase.Samantha had not been in touch with Joanna for a very long time. She noticed that Joanna’s number almost never came online. Thus, Samantha was uncharacteristically happy when she saw the call.She quickly picked up and said, “Jojo?
Chapter 326
After hanging up the call with Joanna, Samantha was thrilled.Adrian turned his head and asked with a smile, “Sweetheart, your relationship with your best friend is quite unique. Do you enjoy slapping each other’s bums on usual days?”Samantha glared at Adrian.“Jojo’s my best friend and she has helped me a lot in life. Dress properly and come with me to pick her up tomorrow at Southrive. And remember, don’t embarrass me,” Samantha ordered.“Yes, I promise to fulfill my duty!”Samantha smiled and did not say anymore.Soon, they arrived at New Paraiso and Samantha immediately dived into work.Adrian was bored and had nothing to do. He decided to park himself in Samantha’s office and play games on his phone. He waited until Samantha was off the clock before they left and went home together.Joanna was coming back tomorrow, and Samantha was so excited that she could not sleep. She bugged Adrian and made him tell her stories about the war.The next morning, Samantha woke Adrian at
