*****

Bars are known for their constant noise, especially at night during operating hours, but right now, the entire bar is eerily silent with everyone within staring blankly as though they were seeing the most disbelieving thing in history, particularly the ones who knew the reputation of the two Lion Kings.

This silence lasted for a long time before eventually, the Lion King, whose leg was being held by Xavier returned to his senses and became deeply embarrassed which promptly changed to an incredible rage.

“Bastard! Let go of my leg!” He snapped ferociously, trying to force away his leg from Xavier’s lazy grasp. Yet, for some reason, he wasn’t able to move it an inch—It was as though the leg was being held by the large hand of a deity and not the seemingly weak Xavier.

“Are you deaf? I say let go of my leg!” He barked and Xavier instantly smiled slightly before nodding his head.

“Sure,” he responded before continuing just as the Lion King was about to heave a sigh of relief. “I will just repay you with what you wanted to do to me.”

“This!” Everyone gasped and saw something flash in their eyes before they could think, after which, a shrill scream that sounded as though someone was being butchered echoed.

Subsequently, Xavier let go of his hand and the Lion King was sent ricocheting away halfway across the bar.

“Ah!!!!!!” He wailed like someone whose skin was being torn away from his body, making everyone feel their hair standing at the end while wondering about what had just happened.

They all turn into statues in an instant which lasts for a moment before the first Lion King forces himself to return to his senses.

“Third—third brother! What’s with your cry?” He asked with fear before rushing toward his brother.

“Aren’t you embarrassing yourself too much? Yelling this loudly and painfully merely because a tiny ant that could easily be squashed to death with my fingers hurled you away?” He complained with dissatisfaction before bending over to help his brother up.

The following second, however, he paused slightly before his eyes widened significantly, after which a strong shill ran down his spine.

“What-“ his mouth hung open as he subconsciously moved his hand toward his brother’s crotch area.

“What’s—what’s blood doing here?” he inquired incredulously and then pressed down with his hand.

“Rahhhhhhh!!!!” The second Lion King’s roar intensified as if he were experiencing the most excruciating pain imaginable, and soon after, he fainted.

The bar became pin-drop silent after this until; “He wanted to castrate me, but I castrated him instead. That’s fair, no?” A calm and lazy voice inquired, making everyone shiver frantically with goosebumps crawling hysterically all over their skin, then they glanced at the speaker.

“He—he crippled the lion king?” Someone swallowed hard and mumbled doubtfully.

Just then, the first Lion King returned to his senses and he screamed. “How dare you castrate my brother?!”

“I’m going to kill you!!!” His voice filled to the brim with killing intent scaring everyone in the bar out of their wits.

“The Lion King is finally mad,” someone mumbled and ran toward the bar’s exit without hesitation, looking terrified to the core.

“Probably all the eyewitnesses here tonight are done for!” Another person mumbled fearfully as he also ran for his li…

Everyone, knowing how unreasonable the Lion Kings normally are quickly ran for their lives, and before long, only Xavier, the fainted Lion King, the first Lion King who had turned into a raging bull, the dumbstruck bartender, and a horrified Grace were left behind.

“Die!!!!” The First Lion King roared with rage and closed in on Xavier, throwing his tightly clenched fist at his face with all the strength he could muster.

Watching this scene, the hearts of the bartender and Grace trembled, knowing that there was no way Xavier would be able to dodge or survive the attack.

Although they weren’t the ones receiving it, they felt the strong force originating from it and trying to destroy them, making the two ladies shut their eyes just as the attack was an inch away from hitting Xavier’s face, unable to handle the scene that would follow.

They brace themselves, expecting a shrill scream, but then a deafening silence was what they heard, lasting for a long time until the ladies could no longer handle their confusion.

‘What happened?’ they thought and squinted open their eyes, wanting to sneak a peak at what had happened.

What came into their view the next second made their eyes widen in stupefaction.

“Am—am I dreaming?” The bartender mumbled to herself dumbly before quickly pinching her arm.

Having worked in the bar for a few years, she had long learned about the strength of the two Lion Kings, able to face the attacks of five able-bodied men without breaking a sweat, yet…

“You—you—you…” the Lion King, who had attacked Xavier with madness and hatred earlier finally returned to his senses and stuttered as he eventually experienced what his brother had gone through a moment ago and to say he was terrified right now was nothing but an understatement.

He had never thought the seemingly weak Xavier who looked like someone he could pinch to death with his fingers would be able to stop his punch with just a single hand.

He thought he was dreaming as he stared at Xavier casually holding his arm that was tightly bulging with his thick veins from exerting all his strength.

“You—you—who… who are you?” He finally completed and Xavier, staring composedly at him sighed.

“I didn’t want any trouble; I just wanted to prevent you from committing an immoral deed while enjoying my peace. Why did you and your brother have to push my hand?” he asked helplessly, leaving the Lion King and the bartender stunned.

‘You didn’t want trouble and yet you interfered in our business, even castrating my brother! What nonsense was that?!’ He yelled in his mind, almost sobbing, but dared not to speak out.

“Plea—please forgive me, master. I—I was just too blind to see the elephant in the room! Please forgive me!”

The bartender, “_”

‘Is this still the First of the two shameless and evil self-acclaimed Lion kings?’ She thought blankly before hurriedly glancing back at Xavier.

Her heart began to pound frantically in her chest and she became filled with curiosity for him, meanwhile, Xavier, not realizing what he had caused to the bartender suddenly gazed seriously at the Lion King.

Given how you and that fool behaved today and the things I learned, you two love getting ladies drunk so that you can have your ways with them, no?”

“I—I… “ The Lion King became further terrified.

If those who had run for their lives out of fear were to witness this scene, they would have been stunned to death, but since no one was there, they couldn’t have in their entire lives imagined what had transpired after they escaped.

“I—tonight was our first time and I have never had the intention of forcing myself on anybody,” the lion king sobbed, regretting why he and his brother hadn't ignored or begged Xavier to mind his business earlier.

“Please forgive me!” He pleaded desperately, wishing nothing but to escape right now.

Xavier watched the horrified Lion King without reacting for a moment, while the two ladies stared at him, waiting to see what he would do. Eventually, he sighed deeply.

“As I mentioned earlier, I only wanted to have some drink in peace.”

    *****Xavier came to a stop just as he reached the door and then turned around, his movement slow and deliberate.His expression was still calm, but at this moment, it was faintly laced with curiosity.His eyes shifted toward Silas, and for a fleeting instant, it felt as though he was about to see through everything… to strip away the layers and uncover whatever lay beneath, but at that exact moment…Silas jolted, appearing as though a bolt of lightning had struck straight through him.At that very instant, every stray thought vanished, every trace of emotion gone.In the very next second, his entire demeanor shifted, snapping back into place so flawlessly that it felt as though nothing had ever been there to begin with.By the time Xavier’s gaze settled fully on him…Silas was already smiling politely, harmlessly, and professionally again.And Xavier… failing to see anything, frowned slightly.“You aren’t… following me?” he asked, his tone carrying a hint of confusion, thou

    *****Silas’s gaze narrowed slightly as he stared at Xavier’s retreating figure, scanning him from head to toe with open scrutiny now that he no longer needed to maintain the act.He held his intense gaze for a moment, clearly judging, assessing, and trying to see through Xavier, before finally, a faint frown formed on his face.‘He doesn’t look like much,’ Silas thought eventually, his eyes flickering with a trace of doubt. ‘So why…?’His thoughts paused for a few seconds, then they resumed more slowly and deliberately.‘Why is someone like him being taken this seriously… by that person?’The question lingered in his mind, and for the first time since he entered the showroom…Silas frowned properly.‘Could it be that I’ve simply overthought everything?’His brows drew together tightly as the question surfaced in his mind, refusing to leave as easily as it had come.And with that, different possibilities began to clash within his thoughts, each one trying to take precedence

  • Chapter 1208 – Xavier’s Suspicion

    *****‘It’s either this person is exactly what he claims to be… a dedicated sales rep, and this entire situation isn’t the scheme I thought it was…” Xavier mused inwardly, his expression remaining as lazy and indifferent as ever on the surface.Then his eyes flickered faintly, a glint of something sharper passing through them. “Or… he’s just that good at acting.”Finished thinking this, Xavier, showing not even the slightest trace of his thoughts or emotions on his face, finally spoke, his posture relaxed.If anything, his expression returned fully to that familiar, almost irritatingly casual indifference and laziness.“I need three vehicles,” he said, his tone flat, his gaze drifting lazily over Silas as though the matter wasn’t particularly important to him.Hearing this, Silas’s reaction was immediate… and flawless.His eyes lit up, looking like those of a man who had just been handed the opportunity of a lifetime.His smile widened naturally… nearly reaching the back of hi

  • Chapter 1207 – The Receptionist’s Suspicion

    *****Silas first turned toward the receptionist only after his breathing had finally steadied into something resembling normal, and then he inclined his head slightly.The earlier image of a man on the verge of collapsing had vanished just enough to restore a thin layer of composure, though the faint sheen of sweat still clung stubbornly to his forehead.“I apologize for the trouble,” he said in a polite, measured tone, and hearing this, the receptionist visibly stiffened, clearly not expecting an apology directed at her.For a brief second, she looked almost caught off guard, her lips parting as though to respond, perhaps out of reflex more than intention.However, Silas didn’t give her the opportunity to speak. He smoothly cut in before she could utter a word, his voice still courteous but carrying an unmistakable undertone of quiet authority.“You can return to your duty now. I will take over from here.”“I…” The receptionist hesitated after hearing this, her gaze flickerin

  • Chapter 1206 – The Sales Representative

    *****The sudden sound of the door being violently pushed open exploded through the showroom, the noise echoing so loudly that everyone inside jumped in shock.Instantly, conversations stopped mid-sentence, heads turned toward the entrance, and for a brief moment, the entire showroom froze.Standing in the doorway was a man in a suit.But he wasn’t the calm, polished kind of businessman one usually expected to see in a luxury car dealership.No.This man looked like he had just escaped from a marathon, his hair messy, his suit slightly wrinkled, and sweat…It drenched him so thoroughly at this moment that it looked as though he had just run five laps around the entire city… possibly while being chased by a pack of wolves.The moment he stepped inside, his eyes swept rapidly across the room, obviously scanning and searching.Then he spotted them… both Xavier and the receptionist standing beside him.The man didn’t hesitate for even a second.He sprinted toward them, making c

  • Chapter 1205 – Xavier’s Realization

    *****Based on everything Xavier knows about the marketing and sales industry, no company in its right mind would ever deliberately make a VIP client wait.That was practically a business sin.It was a widely popular piece of knowledge that VIP clients were the golden geese of the sales world… people capable of dropping enormous amounts of money in a single transaction.More importantly, they were often extremely busy individuals with tight schedules and limited patients.Time, for them, was often more valuable than money itself, and often than not, they were frugal with it.Which meant every competent company followed one simple rule:Serve VIP clients immediately.Even if every salesperson in the building were unavailable, someone would make time.In fact, if necessary, a manager or even a senior executive would personally come down to assist them, but here…Xavier had been sitting there long enough to finish five cups of coffee.Five!At this point, his bloodstream prob
