The true owner of Tiger Restaurant
“Hah, who do you think you are, punk? Do you think your status is higher than Douglas’s?”“Exactly! We know all the scions and heirs of significant status. Where did you come from, scoundrel? Why are you pretending to be a big shot in front of us?”“Hmph, how dare you be a nuisance here? We’re going to kill you!”The rich scions beat the drunkard up badly, to the point that he was shrieking incessantly and bleeding from the nose. His body was battered with unbearable bruises.In the end, Douglas decided to be kind and told his friends to stop when he saw how badly beaten up the drunkard was. “Forget it. We are from prestigious families. We shouldn’t stoop so low and beat up a drunkard. Let’s just throw him out and continue drinking!”Douglas remained seated and looked disdainfully at the ground that was dirtied and stained by the blood from the drunkard’s nose.“Douglas is kind enough to let you off! Hurry up and scram!”The scions cursed at the drunkard and threw him out of the priva
Not a big deal
Douglas initially thought that as long as he showed his dominance and prowess as the scion of the Raymonds in front of a lowlife like William, the latter would definitely be frightened out of his wits and obediently let him have Victoria.But things were completely different from what he had expected.William Belmont is either a fool who is ignorantly brave, or he totally doesn’t know the power that the Raymonds command in Westbrook.Though not comparable to the Storms, they were still a force to be reckoned with. “William Belmont, do you know what status my family has in Westbrook?” Douglas narrowed his eyes and asked to threaten him while also testing the waters.Without even raising his eyebrows, William retorted indifferently, “Isn’t it just a very ordinary family? Do you think the Raymonds are really such a big deal?”“Hah! How dare you say that the Raymonds are just an ordinary family? You good-for-nothing, it seems you’re really clueless!”“Any random person can tell you how p
A tough nut to crack
“Hah, I suggest you sit down obediently and quit putting up an intimidating front in front of me. Otherwise, you won’t want to know what the consequences will be.” William simply disregarded the scions and slowly poured himself another cup of tea as he spoke relaxedly.Although his tone wasn’t harsh, Douglas suddenly and inexplicably got the chills.It seemed that William was a terrifying person not to be trifled with!The entire private room fell into a bizarre silence again.At this moment, the door of the room opened, and Victoria entered together with Tess.She immediately sensed the strange tension in the room.It was especially so because more than ten of them, including Douglas, were standing around William, seemingly trying to force him to do something.“What are you guys doing?” Victoria hollered and immediately walked toward William while staring at them warily.William patted Victoria’s arm and told her to relax.He even picked up the check in front of him and handed it to
Attempting to pay off the competition
As the dinner went on, Douglas bragged as much as he could, even going as far as to claim that his family shared close ties with the owners of the Tiger Restaurant they were in which was a big deal considering the owners were a top-rate family in the city.But to his surprise, Victoria didn’t look at him and was instead helping William to the food!The sight of it made Douglas even more furious!Realizing that her carefully thought-out plan was falling apart, Tess knew she had to do something, so she got to work. “Victoria, I’ve had too much to drink and want to go to the restroom. Will you accompany me?” Tess suddenly said to Victoria.When Victoria heard Tess’s request, the first thing she thought was, What trick is Tess up to now?But when she saw how flushed Tess’s cheeks were and the way she was stumbling with an unsteady gait, she realized that Tess had indeed drunk a lot.At the dining table just now, Tess was like an active social butterfly who continuously livened up the atm
Never too late for revenge
Unable to tolerate it any longer, Tess slammed the glass in her hand onto the table and snapped, “William Belmont, are you deliberately messing with me? I toasted you with kind intentions, but you kept turning me down and refusing to reciprocate!”William’s face suddenly turned gloomy. “Hmph, kind intentions? You? Do you take me for a fool?”“What?”“You should know very well what’s in that glass of wine! Listen up. You’d better behave yourself, or else don’t blame me for being merciless if you really provoke me!”Then William tightened his grip on the teacup in his hand, causing the hard porcelain to shatter with a loud bang.By the time he let go, his hand was full of white powdered porcelain.There weren’t even any porcelain pieces.His move took everyone by storm!Crushing a teacup with bare hands wasn’t that surprising, as those who were strong could do so easily by applying some tricks.But it was extremely terrifying to be able to crush a teacup into powder!Tess subconsciously
False apology
Soon, the food they were waiting for arrived after which everyone began to dig in.“Oh wow, this stew is really nice,” William said.“It is?... Let me try it.” Victoria said with William obliging as he fed her some. Watching William and Victoria eat like a couple caused Douglas’s eyes to be full of anger.Douglas glowered at Tess, making her heart shudder as she recalled the plan they had devised.She picked up a glass of wine and walked to William. “William, I actually never liked you because I’ve always thought that you are just a leech who can’t give Victoria a happy life. But since she wants to be with you, I can’t say anything more. I’ve said some hostile things to you a few times today, so I’ll toast you to apologize for my rude behavior!”Tess, who had been glaring at William and blatantly insulting him unceremoniously just now, was surprisingly the first to toast him, and she even called it an apology for her behavior.She held the glass of wine in front of William, waiting f
