“Report us?” Dylan Piper sneered, “Go ahead. Do you think reporting me will do any good? I am the son of the Governor of the East Coast.”
“You are despicable!” Esther couldn’t believe that the son of the East Coast Governor could be so shameless.
“Despicable?” Bang! Dylan Piper slammed the table and stood up, roaring, “Your husband dared to hit me. Today, you will pay for it!”
With that, a large group of people stormed into the office. They were all Chief Master-level practitioners, exuding powerful auras. Dozens of Chief Masters surrounded Chris Shelby and Esther. These practitioners were from the East Coast Governor’s mansion. Dylan Piper had come prepared to deal with Chris Shelby.
Seeing this, Esther’s face turned pale. She realized that Dylan Piper had deliberately withheld payment to Chester Group to lure her and Chris Shelby here.
Esther turned to Chris Shelby, worried, “Dear, what should we do?”
Chris Shelby smiled calmly, “Don’t worry, dear. As long as I’m here, no one can harm you.”
He then stepped in front of Esther. She felt relieved, knowing that Chris Shelby would protect her no matter what happened. However, she was still concerned about causing trouble with the Governor’s son.
“Dear, maybe we should leave,” Esther whispered.
Chris Shelby shook his head, “Can’t you see? Dylan Piper deliberately withheld our company’s payment to lure me here. He won’t let us leave.”
“Hahaha!” Dylan Piper laughed triumphantly, “Chris Shelby, you’re smart indeed. But today is your death day. Neither of you will leave here.”
Dylan Piper’s face twisted with malice as he spoke.
Chris Shelby smirked, “Dylan Piper, do you think these minions can deal with me? You’re too naive! I haven’t settled accounts with you before. But now that you’ve targeted my wife, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
“Chris Shelby, you’re arrogant even at death’s door! Don’t think that being the King of the East Coast scares me! I am the Governor’s son; who do you think you are? To me, you’re just a skilled peasant!”
“Today I’ll show you my power and let you know what happens when you offend me! Get him!” Dylan Piper roared angrily.
Boom! At his command, dozens of Chief Masters attacked Chris Shelby.
Seeing this, Chris Shelby’s lips curled into a disdainful smile. Without wasting words, he charged forward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In just a few minutes, Chris Shelby had knocked down all the Chief Masters.
Dylan Piper was in disbelief. He had never imagined that Chris Shelby could be so powerful. These were elite practitioners from the East Coast Governor’s mansion, each capable of fighting hundreds.
But in front of Chris Shelby, they were as fragile as paper!
“Dylan Piper, is this all you’ve got? If so, don’t blame me for being unkind!” Chris Shelby taunted.
Dylan Piper’s face turned red with anger and fear. “Chris Shelby, don’t be arrogant! Kill him!” he ordered.
Two shadows darted out, exuding terrifying auras-they were Transcendence-level practitioners!
Transcendence-level practitioners were rare and each was a dominant force. Dylan Piper had brought two to ensure Chris Shelby’s demise!
“Hmph!” Chris Shelby snorted coldly and charged at them.
With swift and brutal moves, Chris Shelby broke their bones in an instant.
“Ah!” The two Transcendence-level practitioners screamed in agony and fell to the ground unconscious.
“You… you…” Seeing this, Dylan Piper was terrified.
“Now it’s your turn,” Chris Shelby said coldly.
“Chris Shelby, don’t act rashly! I’m the Governor’s son; my father won’t spare you if you harm me!” Dylan Piper stammered in fear.
Chris Shelby sneered, “Afraid now? Too bad there’s no turning back. When you provoked me, your fate was sealed!”
Bang! Chris Shelby kicked Dylan Piper in the groin.
“Ah!” A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the office as Dylan Piper collapsed in pain.
Looking down at him with disdain, Chris Shelby said, “Last time I spared you when you rescued Ironheart Steer. But now you’ve crossed the line again! You’re the Governor’s son? Let’s see how mighty you are as a eunuch!”
“Chris Shelby…” Dylan Piper could barely speak through his pain.
“Enough talk. Give my wife her money back or I’ll kill you right now!” Chris Shelby demanded coldly.
Terrified by Chris Shelby’s threat, Dylan Piper reluctantly handed over a check.
Taking it from him, Chris Shelby said calmly, “I’ll spare your life today. Tell your father not to mess with me again or I’ll show no mercy next time.”
With that, he left with Esther. Watching them leave, Dylan Piper’s eyes burned with hatred. His perfect plan had failed completely.
