Esther said, “Hello, we’d like a private room.”
The waiter, with a face full of apologies, replied, “Sorry, all our private rooms are booked.”
Chris Shelby suggested, “Darling, let’s just eat in the lobby then.”
“Alright.”
Hearing this, Esther reluctantly nodded.
Chris Shelby found a spot near the window and said, “Darling, this spot is fine for us.”
Then, they both sat down.
At that moment, a couple approached.
The woman, heavily made up and in her thirties, radiated a vibe of the weary world.
She approached with a frown, “Darling, our spot has been taken.”
The man, in his fifties and pot-bellied, saw that their spot was occupied and asked sternly, “Waiter, what’s going on? Why is someone in my spot?”
The waiter, troubled, responded, “I’m sorry, sir, but this spot is already taken.”
Hearing this, the man said, “Darling, let’s just sit somewhere else.”
The woman, dissatisfied, insisted, “No, I want to eat here. I like this spot.”
Seeing the situation, the man approached Chris Shelby with an air of superiority, “Could you give up this spot for us?”
Chris Shelby, visibly annoyed, retorted, “We were here first. Why should we give it up to you? If it’s nothing important, please leave us alone and let us eat.”
The man’s face darkened at Chris Shelby’s response.
He pulled out a stack of bills from his pocket, threw it on the table, and said disdainfully, “Here’s $10, 000. The spot is yours if you give it up for us.”
Thinking Chris Shelby would agree, as it was $10, 000 after all!
Chris Shelby looked at the money, scoffed, and threw the bills back in the man’s face, “Get lost before I lose my temper!”
“You…”
The man was furious.
Just then, he noticed Esther.
Upon seeing Esther, his eyes lit up.
Esther was known as the most beautiful woman on the East Coast, truly a rare beauty.
The man, filled with jealousy, couldn’t believe Chris Shelby was with such a stunning woman.
Meanwhile, the man’s wife yelled at Chris Shelby, “You pauper, how dare you throw money at my husband? Are you seeking death? Do you know who we are?”
As she continued her tirade, Chris Shelby, unapologetically, splashed a cup of water in her face.
“Asshole, you dare splash me?”
The woman, splashed and furious, turned to her husband, “Darling, he splashed me with water, you must teach him a lesson!”
“Young man, think you can mess around? Daring to splash my husband, I’ll show you what I’m capable of today.”
Fuming, the man gestured, “Come over!”
In a moment, two bodyguards approached.
“Boss, what do you need?”
The bodyguards stood before the man, respectfully.
Pointing at Chris Shelby, the man commanded fiercely, “Break his legs!”
Hearing this, two bodyguards immediately stepped forward, staring at Chris Shelby with hostile expressions.
“Kid, you dare to offend our boss, you’re asking for death!”
As their words fell, the two bodyguards made a move on Chris Shelby.
Without any nonsense, Chris Shelby threw a punch with all his might.
Bang!
With a loud crash, one bodyguard was instantly sent flying to the ground by Chris Shelby.
“Ah!”
Seeing this, the other bodyguard shouted loudly and charged forward.
Chris Shelby, with a face full of disdain, threw another punch.
Bang!
Similarly, the other bodyguard was also sent flying by Chris Shelby.
“This…”
The man was completely dumbfounded.
These two bodyguards, whom he had hired at great expense, were said to be practitioners at the hybrid realm.
Yet, in front of Chris Shelby, they couldn’t even block a single punch.
Chris Shelby looked coldly at the man and said, “Get lost, or don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
“Kid, you wait, offending me will not end well for you…”
“Ah!”
Before the man could finish his sentence, Chris Shelby kicked him.
Instantly, the man screamed in agony as he was sent flying out of the restaurant.
“Honey!”
The woman shouted and hurried over.
After dealing with this couple, Chris Shelby returned to his seat.
For Chris Shelby, he didn’t take this couple seriously at all.
At that moment, at another table, a man wearing sunglasses was watching Chris Shelby, his eyes showing a hint of intrigue.
An hour later, Chris Shelby and Esther finished their meal.
Esther went to work, and Chris Shelby received a call from Tiger.
Tiger informed Chris Shelby that the East Coast Guards’ training was complete.
Upon hearing this, Chris Shelby immediately drove to the East Coast training base.
When Chris Shelby arrived at the East Coast training base, he saw Tiger training the East Coast Guards.
A large group of East Coast Guards were running in the sea.
The surging seawater continuously splashed onto these East Coast Guards.
Seeing this, Chris Shelby walked over.
At that moment, Tiger, with a stern face, roared, “Run faster, do you all not eat enough like women?”
Chris Shelby couldn’t help but chuckle, now Tiger really was a devilish instructor.
Nevertheless, it had to be said that the East Coast Guards were being trained rigorously by Tiger.
Although they couldn’t compare to the Death Guards, they were more than adequate to undertake the responsibility of protecting the East Coast.
Seeing Chris Shelby approaching, Tiger asked, “What do you think of these East Coast Guards?”
Chris Shelby nodded in satisfaction and said, “Not bad, but your training is a bit strict, completely like military training.”
Tiger laughed proudly, “Back when I was in the army, the training I underwent was a hundred times tougher than this. These East Coast Guards are not even one-tenth of what I went through.”
Hearing this, Chris Shelby nodded.
He knew that everything Tiger said was true.
Tiger had become the leader of the Tiger Corps not by luck but through his personal efforts.
During this period, Tiger was training these East Coast Guards every day.
He had completely adopted the military training methods.
At first, some who couldn’t stand it wanted to quit, but after a beating from Tiger, no one dared think about quitting again.
However, as the training intensified, the East Coast Guards got used to Tiger’s methods.
Tiger said, “Since you’re here, let’s have you inspect these East Coast Guards.”
Chris Shelby nodded, “Sure!”
