“Interesting.”Seth’s words did not frighten Zephyr. He merely felt that Seth was putting on airs.“In a small town like Jonesville, you think you’re so great just because you’ve achieved a little something. You have no idea that you’re just a frog in a well.”Zephyr’s expression was cold, and he looked at Seth like he was looking at an ant.“However, your courage is commendable. If you kneel down and recognize me as your master now, I can make you the true king of Jonesville in the future.”Seth laughed. “Do you think you’re worthy of that?”In this world, no one could be his master.A hint of coldness flashed across Zephyr’s eyes. “Since you’re so ungrateful, I’ll send you on your way today.”The quadruplets behind him clenched their fists, and their muscles tightened as they were about to make a move. “Whoever dares touch him today will have to go through me!”At this tense moment, a cold voice sounded from outside the door.Everyone turned their eyes to the door.There
This envy was toward Lily’s talents, along with her appearance.Although the two sides were enemies, he still maintained a gentlemanly facade. Zephyr extended his hand toward Lily and said, “Ms. Lewis, it’s been a while. You’ve gotten even more beautiful.”However, Lily walked straight past Zephyr without even glancing at him.Zephyr’s smile froze.Then, he saw Lily walking straight to Seth. A twisted smile appeared on his ice-cold face. “We meet again, Sethy. Thank you for saving my grandfather this morning.”Seth’s expression was calm as he rubbed her head and said, “No biggie.”Lily was taken aback.Growing up, no one dared to touch her head except for her grandfather.Those who saw her in the past were only filled with awe.Due to her family background, she was very strong at a young age.However, they had no clue that beneath her strong exterior, she had a fragile heart.Seth’s simple gesture made her feel warm.Lily was not an ordinary person. The momentary odd expr
Lily was too domineering.Her aura was so powerful that even these slippery old men who had been in the business for decades dared not resist at all.Zephyr had the ugliest expression on his face.He had planned this for a long time and had spent a huge amount of manpower and material resources for today.Not to mention, just sending out those experts to intercept Jack and Mila had cost him a huge favor.In fact, attempting this was draining him of the Lees' resources.Zephyr looked coldly at Lily and said, “Do you really want to fight the Lees to the death? That project is not something the Lewises can handle. Be careful not to overburden yourselves!"Akin to a high-ranking queen, Lily replied, “Only the weak may die!”Zephyr took several deep breaths before suppressing his anger and showed a smile on his face. “It’s useless for us to argue. Let’s have our people come forth and fight for it. If you lose, you leave here now. If I lose, I apologize to you and leave. What do you
Zephyr said fiercely, “Hit him, beat him to death. If anything happens, I’ll take care of it!”The quadruplets started taking action right after he said this.They were truly embodying what it meant to be as sturdy as a mountain and swift as thunder. These four women were in perfect harmony.They were simultaneously attacking Seth’s four vital areas.The sound of their punches through the air made the onlookers shudder with fear.If those punches landed on themselves, they would most likely have died on the spot.Lily clenched her hands tightly and gave instructions to the few experts beside her again.She was telling them to act quickly to rescue Seth in case of danger.Zephyr’s face was filled with delight.Seth stood motionless as if he was scared stiff.Rosemary became nervous and stared at Seth without blinking.Just as Seth was about to be hit by the four women, he suddenly moved.He appeared to only slightly shift his upper body but perfectly avoided all four punch
In the hall, everyone was stunned to see this scene.For a moment, their minds went blank.The one who could not accept it the most was Zephyr.He was very aware of the strength of these four experts.These four women alone were paid over fifty million a year.They had once defeated Peak Fourth-ranked Warrior, how could they lose so easily?Could it be that Seth was an Intermediate or even a Peak Fifth-ranked Warrior?Zephyr immediately dispelled this thought.He absolutely could not believe that Seth, who looked so young, could possibly be a Fifth-ranked Warrior.He shouted at the four women, “Get up quickly, you can’t lose!”If they lost, he would have to leave here in disgrace and suffer a major blow to his reputation. Then the Jonesville families would think that the Lees were inferior to the Lewises and would likely turn against them.This would make it even more difficult for him to deal with the Lewises.The four women struggled to get up.They growled and their e
“Good, very good. A tiny ant dared to challenge a dragon. I’ll remember this! Let’s wait and see what happens next!”After spitting out these final words, Zephyr walked away.The four women also struggled to get up and followed him out.The other families from Jonesville looked at each other.Then suddenly, they all walked up Seth, with fake smiles on their faces.“You truly are young and promising, Seth Yeager.”“Impressive, simply impressive.”“We should collaborate in the future.”…Seth did not show any signs of repulsion toward their goodwill.Instead, he also smiled and chatted with them.Of course, this was all superficial.Seth had no intention of letting these fools go. He was just temporarily deceiving them.Seth would find an opportunity to deal with these people.They had no idea that Seth was thinking about taking over all of their assets at this moment. They thought he was mature enough to be able to let things slide.What they feared most was Seth being
“I was hoping that Seth would also be involved in this project.”Lily’s expression remained the same, she had guessed as much.Plus, she also wanted to repay Seth for saving her grandfather earlier.While nodding, she said to Seth, “Let’s talk about it in private, Sethy?”“Okay.”Several of them went to the next reception room.The experts that Lily brought carefully inspected the inside and outside of the room.They confirmed that there was no bugging equipment and left.Mila and Haven stayed behind.Lily knew both of their backgrounds as well.Mila was a Fifth-ranked Warrior, but she was not good at fighting and her practical strength was similar to Jack’s.As for Haven, she was a Peak Third-ranked Warrior, but she had mastered some kind of secret technique that could instantly explode several times her own strength, making her equivalent to a Fourth-ranked Warrior.Lily had thoughts of trying to win them over too.The group sat down around the table, and Lily began to s
"I don't have the money now, but I will in a few days."Lily pursed her lips. "Don't force yourself, Seth. Five hundred million is not a small sum."Even for her family, it would take a lot of time to gather five hundred million in cash.Seth smiled. "Don't worry about that. Just tell me if you want to do it."Exchanging five hundred million dollars for 10% of the profits was actually very reasonable.Seth did not demand an exorbitant price just because he had saved Lily's grandfather.Lily agreed immediately. "If you can give me five hundred million, I'll give you 12% of the profits.""There's no need for that," Seth refused. "I only saved your grandfather out of my sense of duty as a doctor. I don't want to bring profits into that relationship. Ten percent it is."Lily was somewhat moved.Seth had actually refused an entire 2% of the profits.If they made an annual profit of two billion dollars, 2% would amount to 20 million a year, and 200 million in ten years.This was n
