For the people at the Extensive Martial Arts Training Center, this scene was a delight to behold, and they relished the opportunity to gloat.
Leo, his gaze piercing, addressed the two with a taunting tone, “What, do the two of you want to back out now, in front of everyone? Don’t waste time; crawl from between my legs.”
Leo parted his legs as he spoke, and Fabian Alick was seething with anger, roaring at Leo, “You little bastard, don’t push your luck too far!”
Leo retorted with a sinister smile, “Want to rehash old tricks? You’re not willing to admit defeat, huh?”
The scent of gunpowder hung heavily in the air, making everyone nervous. To most people present, Leo was just a newcomer who had married into a wealthy family, and despite his extraordinary medical skills, he couldn’t compare to Fabian Alick in terms of background and influence. Now, Leo was openly defying Fabian Alick, and the consequences could be severe.
“Bastard, what the hell do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like this? Do you have any idea who’s standing in front of you?” Fabian Alick was livid, hurling insults at Leo.
Leo looked at him with disdain, coldly replying, “Though you stand there, appearing somewhat dignified, in my eyes, you’re nothing but a piece of crap.”
These words were like a sudden explosion, leaving everyone staring at Leo in shock.
His audacity was simply overwhelming!
Fabian Alick, seething with anger, looked at August and said, “August, this is the piece of trash you brought here. He’s just a waste son-in-law living on his wife’s family, yet he dares to make me kneel and crawl from between his legs. Is he worthy?”
In Fabian Alick and Jack’s eyes, the situation should have been resolved already. They believed August would persuade Leo to relent. Little did they know, August made a surprising statement, “Leo, you’re right. In this situation, it’s Hamiltion Robert and Fabian Alick who should fulfill the bet. Winifred, don’t you think so?”
Jack, forced into a corner, turned to Leo with a quick glance before replying, “August, sometimes we must be merciful. Fabian is over sixty years old. Asking him to crawl between a young man’s legs doesn’t seem appropriate. This bet was between Leo and Hamiltion Robert.”
August’s authority flared, and he spoke in an authoritative tone, “I only know that this bet was made by Fabian Alick and his disciple together with Leo. Now that they’ve lost, they should fulfill the bet. Otherwise, I won’t be able to help when the consequences unfold.”
Fabian Alick pointed an accusing finger at August, fuming, “August, you’re not considering our past relationship, are you?”
“Fabian Alick, there’s nothing I can do about this,” August said with a helpless shrug.
“You…” Fabian Alick struggled to form a coherent sentence but failed.
Leo’s icy voice cut through the tension, “I’ll reiterate it once more. Both of you, fulfill the bet and crawl between my legs. Don’t waste any more of my precious time.”
Hamiltion Robert’s anger clouded his judgment. He sprang to his feet and charged toward Leo, shouting, “You son of a bitch! How dare you insult my teacher and me? I’d rather die than endure this humiliation!”
Leo paid no heed to Hamiltion Robert. He sneered, then delivered a resounding slap to Hamiltion Robert’s face. The loud smack echoed through the air, and Hamiltion Robert spun like a top, dazed.
Leo followed with a swift kick that sent him sprawling on the ground.
“Don’t attempt to challenge my limits. I will make you regret it,” Leo warned sternly.
Leo placed his foot on Hamiltion Robert’s right forearm, and there was a sharp “crack” followed by Hamiltion Robert’s painful cries that resembled a slaughtered pig.
This ruthless action left many people in the room trembling, as they began to doubt whether this man was indeed the infamous freeloading son-in-law attached to a woman. Wasn’t he afraid of the repercussions from Fabian Alick and Hamiltion Robert after treating them this way?
“Leo Bloomer, stop!” Fabian Alick, his fear evident, shouted at him. Fabian Alick, who had enjoyed respect and admiration from everyone in the medical field, was now kneeling before this waste son-in-law. It was a humiliating sight, and he felt powerless for the first time.
Leo took two steps closer to Fabian Alick, locking him in an intimidating gaze, and asked, “I’ll ask you one more time, will you fulfill the bet?”
Feeling Leo’s overpowering aura, Fabian Alick shuddered and, in front of everyone’s gaze, knelt before Leo and crawled between his legs.
“I must be seeing things. The giant of the medical world, crawling between the legs of a waste of a son-in-law?”
“I can’t believe my eyes. This is a sensational news story when it goes public!”
“What’s the story behind this supposed waste son-in-law? He dares to treat Fabian Alick this way. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe it!”
The entire Extensive Martial Arts Training Center was in chaos. No one had expected Fabian Alick to actually do it.
Witnessing the humiliation of his teacher, Hamiltion Robert, who knelt on the ground, couldn’t help but shed tears. “Teacher…”
After crawling between Leo’s legs, Fabian Alick stood up, trembling. He gazed at Leo with bloodshot eyes and threatened, “You little bastard, we’ll see how it goes. Someday, you’ll regret coming into this world.”
Leo sneered, unafraid of Fabian Alick’s threats, and turned his gaze to Hamiltion Robert. “Your teacher has fulfilled the bet. Now it’s your turn.”
Hamiltion Robert would have devoured Leo alive in his mind, but in the face of overwhelming strength, he knew any resistance would be futile. He could only crawl between Leo’s legs like a dog.
Even someone as prominent as Jack was deeply moved by Leo’s strength and dominance at this moment. Leo’s overwhelming presence left him awestruck.
With the bet fulfilled, Fabian Alick, with Hamiltion Robert’s support, glumly left the Extensive Martial Arts Training Center. Jack, with a sense of frustration, left as well, muttering, “August, just wait. We’re not done here.”
After Jack and his group left, August let out a long sigh, walked up to Leo, and expressed his gratitude.
Once Leo left the Extensive Martial Arts Training Center, he drove to the Golden Leaf Shopping Plaza to pick up Sophia from work.
