Hidden intentions
“Damn it. Who do you think you are, you good-for-nothing?! How dare you talk like that in front of us?!”“How dare you say you won’t let us off easily? We just chose not to bother with you on account of Douglas! If you provoke us, I’ll get someone to come and break your legs right away!”“How damned ignorant! It’s your blessing that Douglas was kind enough to let you come in and join us here. Yet you’re still being so fussy and speaking to us so rudely. Are you tired of living?”All of a sudden, the scions in the room began lashing out at William, and a few exceptionally hot-tempered ones even stood up and rolled up their sleeves, feeling a strong urge to teach William a lesson.They were all Douglas’s friends and a gang of scoundrels, just like him.Before William and Victoria arrived, they had heard Tess badmouthing William and all the insults she said about him.Meanwhile, Douglas had also shown interest in Victoria in front of them, so they naturally loathed William and wanted to
Trying and failing to make a statement
Once Victoria had responded to his calls for her to wait, Douglas said, “Tonight, I’ve specially invited all my friends from top families. I was planning to introduce them to you and see if there’s a chance for you to cooperate with them. If you leave now, not only will you be letting my kind intentions go to waste, but it will be quite disrespectful to everyone here too.”“Douglas is right, Miss Smith. You’re actually leaving before we even get to speak to each other. That seems a little impolite of you, don’t you think?”“That’s right. We are all here for Douglas’s sake yet you suddenly want to leave even though we’ve agreed to meet you for dinner. Are you looking down on us?”Two people at the dining table stood up and chimed in.Although both of them acted like they were joking, there was an obvious sense of threat in their tone.In particular, they were all scions of wealthy and prestigious families and had absolute say and authority in their respective families.If Victoria insi
Dinner at Tiger Restaurant
Victoria had always overshadowed Tess in every way and it never sat right with her.In what ways was she lacking compared to Victoria?Yet, people always chose Victoria over her.Soon, that would change though.Soon, everyone would realize that she was better than Victoria in every way and if they wouldn't see it themselves, then she would force them to see it.***The next day after a most exciting celebration, Victoria and William spent most of the day together, indulging in each other's company.Naturally, Richard and Charlotte didn't dare to get in the way as they already owed William quite a lot. Anyways, the day quickly went by, and soon, it was evening, at which point, Victoria received a call from Tess. When she saw Tess’s name on her phone screen, she hesitated for a moment before answering.Tess’s sharp voice immediately sounded from the speaker of the phone. “Victoria, are you free?... Some of my friends and I are meeting up and I thought you'd be interested in attending.
End of an epic clash
Trevor narrowed his eyes. “Lord Dylan, are you really going to support the Smiths?”“That’s right! I’m definitely supporting them! If anyone has a problem with it, feel free to talk to me.” Dylan’s tone was domineering as he added. “You should already be thankful that I'm not coming to the Storms' doorstep to demand an explanation for what happened to my daughter. If not that the person responsible is already dead, I would have already done so!”The Smiths were ecstatic upon hearing his declaration, while Trevor’s expression turned unusually resentful. Even though he was upset, he could only give in for now.Dylan was a first–ranked official and controlled the army, Trevor couldn’t afford to offend him.However, he was confident he would overshadow Dylan in under five years.“Lord Dylan, since you have a higher rank, I’ll concede for now. However, the world is a small place, and things don’t always go as you want. We’ll meet again!” With a scoff, Trevor strutted out of the place with
Richard's trump card
Even the Smiths were pressured into silence at Trevor’s appearance.So where did this insignificant man get the courage to act so boldly in front of such an influential figure?William was only making things worse by challenging Trevor.Richard’s brows were locked in a frown as he remained silent. The time was not right, and he had to keep waiting.Victoria, on the other hand, sat beside him in worry, at a loss for words.In the face of his boastful statement, Trevor let out a chuckle. “Do you know what you just said?”“No matter what I said, I’ve given you a warning. So stop whatever you’re planning. Don’t make me hit you.” William’s expression was unwavering.“You’ve got balls.” Trevor nodded. “I admire your bravery. Sadly, you’re not qualified to play the hero in front of me. I’ll give you three seconds. Get lost! Or die!”The armed guards behind him raised their guns at his words, rows of gun barrels aimed directly at every part of William.They would immediately shoot their targe
Incredibly daring
Despite his poor attempt to act bigger than he truly was, Charlie understood that with his status, he couldn’t even interact with Thaddeus, let alone have his personal contact information“Charlie, stop holding back! Just give her a call. I’d like to see if Trevor would still dare stir up trouble.” Kyle said in discontent.“That’s right, show him the power of The White Tiger King!” The Smiths started clamoring.They knew asking the White Tiger King to appear would be difficult, but making a call would be easy.After all, Charlie was a high–ranking commander.He would definitely be taken seriously.“Fine! I’ll make the call!” Realizing that he couldn’t avoid it, Charlie immediately took out his phone and started his act of needing help.“Don’t try to tell me that Thaddeus is too busy and can’t answer your call,” Trevor interrupted him coldly.Charlie turned red as he was caught off guard by his words.He was indeed about to make an excuse to deceive him.After being exposed, he stood t
