Lysander Frost looked at Chris Shelby with disbelief etched across his face. He had never imagined that Chris Shelby would dare to slap him. Was Chris really not afraid of retaliation from the Frost family?
Chris, with a stern face, said, “Remember this slap as a minor lesson. If you dare to harbor inappropriate thoughts about my wife again, next time, I will personally break your neck!” After saying this, Chris turned and left.
Watching Chris’s retreating figure, Lysander’s face was filled with resentment. As the young master of the prestigious Frost family, he had never been slapped before. “Chris Shelby, I must personally settle this account with you!”
At that moment, a waiter approached. “Good evening, sir. Your total bill is $53 million!”
“Are you robbing me?” Lysander jumped in shock. Though he had boasted to Chris about spending millions on a meal, it was only an occasional splurge. “My God, $53 million for one meal, even as the Frost family’s young master, this is a massive bleed!”
The waiter patiently explained, “Sir, the meal itself was $3 million, but the bottle of wine you ordered costs $50 million!” Lysander, his face ashen, demanded, “What wine costs that much? If you’re trying to cheat me, believe me, I will demolish your hotel!”
“The wine you ordered is a hundred-year-old cellar treasure of our hotel!” Realizing the truth, Lysander was at a loss for words. $50 million was indeed not expensive. Lysander realized that Chris Shelby, that bastard, was setting him up!
Seeing Lysander silent, the waiter said, “If you refuse to pay, I will have to call the police!” Hearing this, Lysander grimaced. The young master of the Frost family, caught leaving without paying, would lose all face. Lysander pulled out a card and grimly said, “Swipe it!”
At that moment, Lysander felt a pain as if his heart was bleeding. Although he was the Frost family’s young master, the family wasn’t his alone. The Frost family allocated a fixed monthly living allowance to everyone. $53 million was several months’ allowances for Lysander!
Thinking of how he had been tricked by Chris Shelby made Lysander clench his teeth in anger. “Chris Shelby, I swear I won’t rest until I’ve killed you!” With that thought, Lysander took out his phone and called Dylan Piper.
On the other end, Dylan answered with surprise, “Cousin, did you handle Chris Shelby that quickly?” Lysander cursed through the phone, “Handle your ass, get over here now!”
Meanwhile, Chris Shelby returned to his villa. Upon arriving, he saw John sitting alone on the living room sofa. Seeing Chris, John exclaimed with joy, “Chris, you’re back!”
“Dad, I brought back a bottle of fine wine for you today!” Chris said as he took out the golden wine he had packed. “Is this…” Staring at the golden wine in Chris’s hands, John was stunned. “Chris, is this the legendary golden wine from the East Coast Hotel?” Now the chairman of Chester Group, John was quite knowledgeable. He had heard of the East Coast Hotel’s treasured golden wine, but at $50 million a bottle, even with his billions, John couldn’t bring himself to buy it for drinking.
But now, Chris Shelby had actually brought this treasure of the shop back home. Chris Shelby nodded with a smile, “That’s right!”
“Chris, this wine is too expensive, I really can’t bear to drink it.”
“Hehe!”
Chris Shelby chuckled, “Dad, a friend of mine gave me this wine, so please drink it without worry!”
“Chris, which friend of yours is so generous? To give you a wine worth fifty million dollars just like that?”
Hearing this, John looked astonished. Although John was wealthy now, he had come from humble beginnings. The thought of spending fifty million dollars on a bottle of wine was truly unbearable to him.
“Hahaha!”
Chris Shelby laughed heartily, “It’s a friend from Middleton who gave it to me. This guy’s family is incredibly wealthy. He insisted on giving it to me, even saying that if I didn’t accept it, he would immediately go eat shit! What could I do when he said that? How could I just watch him go eat shit?”
Upon hearing this, the corners of John’s mouth involuntarily twitched. What kind of friend would do such a thing? Not only giving away a wine worth fifty million dollars, but also threatening to eat shit if it wasn’t accepted. Ah, the incomprehensible thought processes of the wealthy second generation.
“Chris, it looks like your friend is truly generous! Tonight, I really am in for a treat!”
Subsequently, Chris Shelby and John began to drink merrily. Meanwhile, as Chris Shelby savored the fifty million dollar golden wine, at the East Coast Grand Hotel, Lysander Frost and Dylan Piper looked very displeased.
“Cousin, this Chris Shelby is so bold, daring to hurt you. We must teach him a lesson, or he will really think our Frost family is easy to bully!” Dylan Piper said, full of righteous indignation.
Upon hearing Lysander Frost’s account, Dylan Piper was nearly exploding with anger. He hadn’t expected Chris Shelby to be so bold. Not only had he swindled Lysander Frost, but he had also slapped him. Was this bastard really unaware of his impending doom?
Lysander Frost said grimly, “No one who offends me, Lysander Frost, ever has a good ending. I will definitely not let this Chris Shelby go!”
Seeing Lysander Frost’s murderous look, Dylan Piper cautioned, “Cousin, not only is Chris Shelby Amerosia Primus, but he is also highly skilled. It won’t be easy to deal with him!”
As Dylan Piper expressed his concerns, if Chris Shelby had been easy to handle, Dylan Piper wouldn’t have needed to involve Lysander Frost. After all, with his status as the son of the Governor of the East Coast, he could have resolved many issues easily. But Chris Shelby was not just any troublemaker; he was Amerosia Primus, a top-ranking official, and importantly, he was the brother of the current Amerosia Master William-a highly influential figure.
“To hell with that damn Primus!”
Lysander Frost stood up, furious, “He dares to slap me, even if he is a Primus, what of it? If we don’t teach him a lesson, where will the Frost family’s face be?”
After speaking, Lysander Frost looked at Dylan Piper, “Aren’t you the son of the Governor of the East Coast? You immediately mobilize the personnel from the Governor’s mansion to deal with Chris Shelby!”
“This…”
Hearing this, Dylan Piper hesitated. Although he was the son of the Governor of the East Coast, the Governor was his father after all! If he mobilized the Governor’s mansion’s personnel to deal with Chris Shelby, and his father found out, he certainly wouldn’t be spared!
