“Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear the words of the Jewelry King? Hand it over quickly, or you won’t get a penny!”
“Alright, time’s up. Now the ring belongs to the Jewelry King. Will you hand it over, or shall we take it?”
The entourage members approached Flynn with a fierce look on their faces.
Scarlet’s face turned dark, and she angrily rebuked, “You’re shameless! You’re actually resorting to robbery!”
“If Flynn doesn’t want to sell, no one can take it!”
Apollo and his people laughed. One of the entourage members stepped forward, wearing a fake smile and whispered, “Of course, the Jewelry King won’t resort to robbing with so many people around, but we know what you look like. You’ll regret it tonight!”
The voice carried a threat, and a cold gleam flashed in Flynn’s eyes.
“Young lady, you have no idea about the capabilities of the Jewelry King. When he wants something, no one dares to refuse!”
“Yes, quickly say a few good words. He might be willing to buy it at the original price. Otherwise, you won’t get a single penny!”
“Do you know how prestigious the Jewelry King is? He was in Niarak last night, and Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Kennedy went to pick him up! Mr. Kennedy will be here later to pay his respects. If you don’t act wisely, you’ll lose more than you gain tonight!”
Everyone exchanged words, expressing their fear and respect for the Jewelry King.
Apollo, the largest jeweler in the Southern Territory, was well-known for bridging the gap between prestigious families. Over the years, Apollo had established connections with numerous influential families in the Southern Territory through jewelry transactions and had befriended many wealthy estate owners.
Moreover, more than half of the celebrities in Ostrad would rent jewelry from Apollo for events. Through these celebrities, Apollo had also made connections with many capitalists.
Most importantly, as a jeweler, Apollo’s security team was absolutely top-notch. Especially as the largest jewelry distributor in the Southern Territory, he had three Semi-Grandmasters under his command!
His status, power, and wealth were far superior to Orion’s, and it was unknown by how many times.
As Scarlet listened to everyone’s descriptions, she suddenly became worried.
Flynn knew quite a few influential people, but Apollo was no slouch either. Who knew if he had a powerful figure behind him?
Could Flynn handle him?
“Flynn, since he doesn’t know the ring’s origin, let’s go. We still have to attend the banquet,” Scarlet whispered.
Flynn understood Scarlet’s concerns and gave a disdainful smile. He patted Scarlet’s raised buttocks lightly and said with a faint smile, “Don’t worry, it’ll be resolved soon. Sit aside for now.”
After speaking, he turned to Apollo and said, “You tell me the origin of this ring, and I won’t pursue your offense. Otherwise, I don’t mind breaking your legs.”
The room exploded with chatter.
“This guy is not on the same page as us! We’ve been advising him for so long, but he hasn’t listened to a word!”
“Hey! Bro, Jewelry King wants the ring. Listen to what you’re saying? You want to ask about the jewelry’s origin and break his legs?”
“He’s crazy! Even if he doesn’t want to give it up, he could just run away. He chose to provoke Jewelry King instead!”
Everyone shook their heads in disbelief at Flynn’s behavior.
You see, someone like the Jewelry King could provide massive resources to those he favored. Compared to a ring worth 700 million, his appreciation was much more valuable!
Flynn was clueless and had actually dared to threaten the Jewelry King! What an idiot!
Apollo was amused by Flynn’s arrogance and smirked, “I really want to see how you plan to break my legs!”
After saying this, he turned to his subordinates and said, “Summon my brother Freddie, Master Black, and Master Hayes!”
The subordinate nodded and went to make a phone call.
The hall fell silent.
They knew that Apollo was furious and was about to call in experts to deal with the situation!
“The Jewelry King is truly decisive. Without wasting time on this guy, he’s calling in the inner circle!”
“I heard that the Jewelry King’s brother, Freddie, is a Semi-Grandmaster. In addition, the Jewelry King has hired two more Semi-Grandmasters. These three experts have protected the Jenkins family for over a decade!”
“Yes! The three grandmasters arrived in Niarak a few days ago to inspect the venue in advance!”
“They are currently patrolling the jewelry exhibition hall on the third floor. Once the grandmasters come down, this guy’s fate will be sealed!”
As everyone discussed, two men and a woman appeared on the third floor. Just their presence alone exuded an overwhelming pressure that filled the entire hall.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The three Semi-Grandmasters leaped from the third floor and landed steadily on the ground floor of the hall.
The marble floor bore three craters, and cracks spread like a spider’s web.
The people in the hall felt a strong shock, and their hearts began pounding.
“Oh my goodness! The third floor is fifteen meters high! And these three grandmasters just jumped down like it’s nothing! They landed in the hall like nails!”
“We felt the shockwave! After the grandmasters landed, the shockwave swept through the hall and even knocked off the leaves of the money tree!”
“We were far away, so we didn’t feel the shockwave, but the tremors were evident. It was like three bombs dropping into the hall. It was terrifying!”
As everyone expressed their shock, they all turned their attention to the grandmasters not far away.
“Brother, someone wants to break your legs?” Freddie, wearing a dark expression, walked towards Apollo first.
The Inner Strength of the Semi-Grandmaster was truly formidable. Even from over a hundred meters away, everyone’s eardrums were in pain from the vibrations.
Freddie?
When Flynn heard the name, he was initially surprised, but when he saw their faces clearly, he burst into laughter.
Well!
Weren’t these the experts who challenged the boxing champion Alejandro that day?
Apollo, seeing Flynn’s reaction, thought he was laughing at Freddie’s straightforwardness. His expression darkened, and a cold light appeared in his eyes as he looked at his subordinates.
Why did you tell my brother about the trouble? What’s the point of conveying his words to him?
Freddie was a straightforward martial artist. Do you think his words just now sounded pleasant?
“Mr. Jenkins, I was angry just now and didn’t consider all that…” The subordinate’s neck felt a chill, and he lowered his head.
Everyone also felt that Freddie’s words were inappropriate.
The Jewelry King had been provoked enough by Flynn, and Freddie’s repetition was no different from insulting him again.
“The brat is actually laughing. Is this matter amusing to him?”
“Let him laugh! He’ll cry later!”
“He doesn’t think the Jewelry King is putting on a show, breaking your legs and compensating with some money. He really dares to cripple you in public!”
Everyone shook their heads, thinking Flynn was too naive.
After all, he was facing the Jewelry King!
At his position, he was not bound by societal rules. Even if he stole your jewelry and broke your legs, he could walk away unscathed.
“Heh, he’s just a kid who can’t keep his mouth shut. There’s no need to take him seriously. I called you all here just to teach him how to speak!” Apollo laughed and said loudly.
Freddie approached with large strides, his face dark, and sneered, “So, he said he wants to break your legs?”
“Good! Today, I’ll personally teach him a lesson in speaking!”
Carolina and Remington also chuckled and followed Freddie.
“The Jewelry King has paid us a hefty sum to come here. Your safety is our responsibility. Even if he was just talking, we won’t let him off easily!”
