Regret
Despite facing more than ten men, Jared was calmly seated and barely moved a muscle.
Suddenly, he grabbed some peanuts from the table flung them out in their direction.
When the men saw Jared throwing peanuts at them, they made a face and didn’t bother to dodge,
assuming that the peanuts were harmless.
But soon, all of them regretted it at once.
Upon impact, they felt as if they were hit by bullets instead. One by one, they trembled momentarily
before collapsing onto the ground. Every one of them had a cut on their hands where blood began to
flow out.
Rhino was stunned by what happened. As if he was spellbound, he watched as his subordinates were
all howling in pain.
“Wh-what happened?” Rhino gulped nervously.
No one answered him, and even Yolanda was stupefied. After all, she had not expected Jared to be so
powerful. Turning around, she gave Hilda a look, as she felt that she deserved an explanation about
who Jared really was.
At that moment, even Hilda was taken aback. She never knew Jared was capable of taking down more
than ten men with just peanuts. It was simply unfathomable.
Staring at Rhino, Jared questioned, “Are you still planning to kill me?”
Just when he attempted to answer, words just wouldn’t come out after he saw the look on Jared’s face.
In fact, it took him a while before he regained his senses. After taking a few deep breaths to calm
down, he replied, “Kid, I got to admit that you know a thing or two, but do you know who I am? I’m a
member of the Crimson Dragon Gang, and this street belongs to us. Now that you have hit me, you
have made enemies with the entire gang.”
“So what if I did? If you’re so tough, why don’t all of you just come at me?” Jared couldn’t help but
sneer.
With his face fuming red, Rhino took out his phone and made a call.
Even though no one knew who he was calling, they were certain it was for reinforcements.
Soon, Rhino broke out into a smug smile after the call had ended. “Kid, now that Mr. Lawson is coming,
you’re doomed. Even if you have nine lives, there’s no way you’re going to escape.”
Rhino had called Felix. With Steven away, Felix was left in charge of the Crimson Dragon Gang in his
stead. Now that there was an issue, Felix was the man Rhino was supposed to escalate to.
The mention of Felix’s name caused Jared to break into laughter. After all, he had just left Felix’s office
and didn’t expect to see him again so soon.
“Perfect. I’ll be right here waiting. Let’s see how this Mr. Lawson that you talk about will do to me,”
Jared remarked with contempt.
However, the mere mention of Felix caused Yolanda’s face to turn pale. After giving Hilda a look, she
whispered in her ear, “Hilda, you should persuade Jared to leave now instead of maintaining this
bravado. Let me tell you, Mr. Lawson is a lieutenant of Steven, head of the Crimson Dragon Gang. He
is so ruthless that Jared would definitely lose his life if he comes later.”
Frightened by the prospect, Hilda nodded slightly. Then, she approached Jared and muttered, “Jared,
we’d better go. It’s getting late.”
