The Legendary Conglomerate

Chapter 3: Decisions and Threats

"It looks like there's nothing I can do here to defend myself." Killian paused for a moment and looked at everyone present indifferently.

"If that's what you want..." Killian suddenly stopped his sentence, making everyone present furious.

"Say it quickly! What do you mean, bastard?" Julius growled.

"Son of a bitch! Were you not taught good manners by your parents?" Killian said casually.

"You bastard Killian. You useless son-in-law. Get out of my sight!" snapped Emma angrily.

"If I leave, what about the divorce agreement? If I don't sign the agreement, then that whore is still my legal wife," Killian said with a laugh, though his heart was full of resentment.

"What a loser! Whom do you mean by whore, cunt!" shouted Julietta angrily as she stepped forward, intending to slap Killian.

Tap!

Julietta's palm, which was ready to land on Killian's face, was caught by him efficiently.

"I will never let your dirty hands touch my noble face again," Killian snapped while stomping Julietta's hand hard. It made Julietta stagger and push back and almost fall.

"How dare you, Killian. In my house, you can act like this with a woman," Granny Smith shouted angrily.

"Honourable Granny Shit!" said Killian, changing the name of the head of the family playfully.

"Who's the one messing around? Didn't you see for yourself that this cunt wanted to slap me first," Killian continued defensively.

"You bastard Killian! How dare you change your grandmother's name at the drop of a hat!" shouted Julius, who was getting angry.

"Ho... ho... Someone's angry. So what if I change people's names at will? Aren't you guys doing the same to me? It's only fair since this family is full of shit people," Killian mocked with satisfaction.

"You!"

"What's wrong with me? Do you want to hit me? Come here if you dare," Killian scolds without any fear and approaches Julius with an intimidating aura.

Julius, who was approached, stepped back and took cover behind Granny Smith.

"How dare you, Killian! Hurry up and call the guards! Tell him to beat this guy up," Granny Smith shouted, unable to contain herself.

Several family members rushed out to call the bodyguards, who were always ready around the house.

In just a few moments, six family bodyguards arrived. Their average body was stocky, with a fierce look. Without being commanded, they immediately surrounded Killian. Their presence did not scare Killian but instead made Killian laugh out loud.

"Haha... Are these six clods called bodyguards?" mocked Killian, belittling them.

"Come forward if you want to feel my fist," Killian provoked them.

They were receiving such a demeaning taunt. The five guards simultaneously came forward with their respective punches.

Bug! Bug! Des! Bug! Pluck!

They don't know when Killian made his move. But suddenly, the five bodyguards were thrown in all directions, rolling on the floor.

Some hit the table. Some hit the walls and windows until they broke. Five of them did not get up again, fainting. At the same time, the other one roared with pain due to a loose joint in his hand.

The scene naturally shocked everyone there. A Killian, who had been known to be weak and obedient. Why did he suddenly become strong? Had he been hiding his strength all this time?

"You trash. Ptooey..." said Killian releasing his frustration at the five bodyguards; then he looked at the family members present one by one, making them afraid not to dare to look him in the eye.

"All this time you guys oppressed me, I was silent! You insulted me, and I was silent! You abused me, and I was silent! For my love for Julietta, I am willing to humiliate you and feel humiliated. Because of my love, I'm willing to be considered like an animal that you can mock as you please! But not anymore! Remember that, shit family!" Killian shouted with fire.

"Come here! Please bring me the agreement. I'll be happy to sign it," Killian mockingly said.

Hurriedly, one family member rushed over and timidly gave the divorce agreement. Killian grabbed the letter roughly. He glanced at the contents.

"Remember! Someday, I will repay your mistreatment of me dozens of times more than what you did to me. I will destroy your entire extended family. I will make you poor until you become beggars!" Killian shouted as he signed the divorce agreement, then threw it violently in Granny Smith's face.

The harsh treatment made all the family members angry, but they only dared in their hearts. They did not express too openly to show it to Killian, who had already proven his strength, including Granny Smith, who sat in her oversized chair with her hands trembling with anger.

The five-strong bodyguards alone were helpless when faced with Killian, let alone them. No one dared to argue or insult Killian again like before. They were all silent, not daring to speak even a whisper, including Granny Smith herself.

After being satisfied to vent his anger and the heartache, he had been harbouring. Confidently, Killian walked away from the Smith family meeting room, headed for the back room, took his only two pairs of clothes, which he had, and put them in a shabby bag.

No one dared to stop him, and they were silent and angry. But voices rose after Killian left and was seen coming out of the gate.

"What a loser! Who does he think he is!" said Granny Smith, venting the anger she had been harbouring.

"Julius! You find a strong man who can handle a bastard like Killian! If necessary, make him a cripple, or if you have to, finish him off," Granny Smith shouted as she pounded on the table in front of her.

"That's done, Grandma! You take it easy. I know some strong men who can handle that bastard," Julius replied confidently.

The family members who heard Grandma Smith's order were naturally surprised. They didn't expect her to be so angry at Killian's mistreatment of her.

The weak son-in-law, who had been bullied, had dared to humiliate the head of their family. Of course, they understood her attitude. They supported the decision to finish Killian off through someone else's hands.

They were also furious, especially Julietta, after being called a whore by her ex-husband. She had the evil intention of tearing Killian's spicy mouth open one day.

Julietta's mother and father are also angry at Killian's treatment of their daughter. But they can't do anything about it. It's not that they can't, but they certainly don't dare after seeing Killian's strength, who was able to trounce 5 of their guards.

Right now, there was nothing they could do. They were waiting for the action to be made by the family's principal heir, Julius.

"This meeting is enough up to here. We got the final result. That bastard has been kicked out of our family. So from now on, let's rebuild the strength of our Smith family business. And Julietta, You approach Robert and give him my regards. This Saturday, I'm inviting him to dinner to celebrate your divorce from that bastard son-in-law," said Granny Smith enthusiastically.

None of the family members dared to contradict Granny Smith's words. They all looked at Julietta with anxious expectation. They knew that the life and death of their family business depended on Julietta's efforts, which would lead to a partnership with Robert, a human resources manager, who was in charge of a subsidiary of the giant Spencer Group.

Their family business is financially tricky after Robert unilaterally cancelling several of their tenders. Hence, they are desperate to set Julietta up with Robert at the expense of their useless son-in-law Killian. A parasite and a pariah in the family, according to them. If Julietta has a special relationship with Robert, then all the tenders they are fighting for will be easily obtained. That's according to their cunning brains.

After all the talking, Grandma Smith quickly moved away, leaving her oversized chair behind. The rest of the family dispersed, except for Julietta and her parents.

"Now you're free of that loser. Mum's glad that useless man is finally out of our lives," Emma chirped happily.

"Dad is happy too. But after seeing how Killian treated our family, especially our grandmother, I have a grudge against him!" Dylan continued to heat things.

"Hopefully, Julius will soon find someone who will make that bastard get his comeuppance," Julietta also said to herself.
