Chapter 385: Kieran Apologizes To Kael
Hearing Kael still demand more, Kieran’s expression darkened instantly, boiling over with raw anger."Damn this guy!" Kieran muttered angrily under his breath, though he dared not let it out loud. "He's lucky I'm even apologizing to him, and he still dares to act arrogant and reject it?!"Kieran took in a deep, trembling breath to force himself to calm down. Slowly, he raised his head and stared straight into Kael’s eyes for five solid seconds, his jaw clenched tight. Finally, swallowing the last of his pride, Kieran spoke clearly and loudly."I am truly sorry for my behavior," he said, locking eyes with Kael.Kael finally nodded, looking satisfied. "I am okay now. Now, apologize to her," he said, casually pointing a finger toward Celeste."What?!" Kieran exploded, unable to believe his ears.Apologize again? At this exact moment, Kieran finally snapped, he had held his rage back as long as he could, and he couldn't contain it anymore. He had already swallowed his humiliation and a
Chapter 384: The Apology
Kieran still hadn't gotten over the sheer shock of everything. His uncle's sharp command to apologize was the only thing that finally dragged him back to his senses, but he still couldn't bring himself to believe what was happening in front of his eyes. It felt as though his uncle was being blackmailed or possessed. What kind of absurd fictional movie logic was taking place in real life? How could a terrifying figure like Richard Thornton act like this? It made absolutely no sense to him. More than anything, his pride refused to let him bow down. There was no way on earth he was going to apologize to a young guy like Kael, especially not after he had bragged so loudly about how his uncle was going to destroy him. If he apologized now, in front of the entire lounge, he would be turned into a total laughingstock forever. He shook his head in absolute refusal, stepping back as he looked at Richard."I do not understand what is going on, Uncle," Kieran spat, his voice trembling with
Chapter 383: Richard Recognizes Kael
Kael watched Richard's face twist into absolute, shivering terror. A deep sense of satisfaction washed over him. This was exactly the reaction he had been looking for, but he wasn't done yet, he still wanted to teach the ruthless money lender a thorough lesson. He slowly pulled his hand out of his jacket pocket and clasped it behind his back, looking down at Richard with cold eyes."Mr. Thornton, it seems the warning Lord Dominic gave you that day went in one ear and out the other," Kael said calmly."You decided to ignore it, rounded up your armed enforcers, and rushed over here to break my bones because of something your nephew did. Since you're so eager to flex your power, I suppose I should show you mine. Let's see whose bones get broken today. May the man with the best power win."At those words, Richard swallowed hard, his throat going completely dry. He watched as Kael reached into his pocket and pulled out his smartphone. The implication hit him like a freight train. Kael
Chapter 382: Kael Confronts Richard
Celeste gasped, her heart leaping into her throat as she stepped behind Kael. Yet Kael didn't even flinch. He just stood there with his hands casually slipped into his dark jacket pockets, watching them approach with cool, bored eyes.The five armed thugs froze in their tracks mid-swing, pulling back their machetes and iron rods in total confusion. The entire lounge was blanketed in stunned silence. Nobody could understand why Richard Thornton had just ordered his men to hold back."Boss, why did you make us stop?" the lead thug asked, breathing heavily as he glared at Kael. "We need to break his bones! This guy has disrespected you in public and dared to hit Kieran!"Kieran was just as shocked. He hurried over to his uncle's side, his face twisted in disbelief. "Uncle, why did you stop them?" he whined angrily. "He needs to be taught a lesson right now!"Richard nodded slowly, his eyes glued to Kael. "Yes... he will be taught a lesson."In truth, Richard hadn't stopped them becaus
Chapter 381: Richard Thornton II
Kael was the only person in the entire lounge who didn't even bother to raise his head. He remained entirely focused on his spoon, taking another bite of rich ice cream as though he hadn't heard a single word.Over by the counter, Kieran's face lit up with absolute triumph. His uncle had finally arrived!Kieran sneered viciously across the room at Kael and Celeste. "You both are dead meat," he mouthed with a nasty grin.Without waiting another second, Kieran turned toward the entrance just as the heavy golden glass doors pushed open.First to march in were the five roughly dressed thugs, their weapons held visibly at their sides, sending a chill of fear straight through the room. Stepping in right behind them, tapping his silver skull walking stick against the floor, was Richard Thornton.The moment Richard Thornton stepped inside, an icy silence washed over the entire dessert lounge. The cheerful atmosphere vanished completely, replaced by pure tension. A few patrons shrank back int
Chapter 380: Richard Thornton
Immediately after the call ended, Kieran slipped his phone back into his pocket, a nasty, victorious smirk spreading across his face. He stared directly at Kael and Celeste's table, pointing a finger at them."You're going to regret this!" Kieran sneered loudly. "You have no idea what's coming for you!"Meanwhile, Kael acted as if Kieran didn't even exist. He picked up his silver spoon, took a neat scoop of the luxury sundae with extra chocolate drizzle and hazelnuts, and popped it into his mouth.He chewed slowly, a subtle look of satisfaction on his face. "It's really nice," Kael commented smoothly, taking another bite.Celeste just stared at him in complete disbelief, her arms crossed tight against her chest. She couldn't understand how he could be so calm right now."You really don't know who Richard Thornton is, right?" Celeste asked, her voice hushed and filled with stress. "That is why I keep saying we should leave, yet you still want to sit here and eat ice cream!"Kael look
