Eddie’s body instantly became sweaty as soon as he heard this due to his nervousness.
His eyes naturally shifted to the man who spoke. Kayden stood up from the stool without a moment’s hesitation, his eyes extraordinarily resolute, like that of a warrior who was unafraid of death or power!
Nothing ever seemed to disturb him. Kayden had maintained high and mighty from the moment Eddie arrived.
Maybe Eddie wouldn’t be so surprised if he knew who Kayden was, a War God!
Kayden was the Defender of Seclela and the one-and-only five-star general. How could he be panicked, holding the pride of a victor!
His calmness was desired by many, but none could imitate!
Who could have such a stance if they hadn’t killed hundreds of thousands of people?
Others could only marvel.
This man was too strong!
A single look and gesture of him was able to shock every single person!
His eyes shifted to the empty street. There wasn’t even a bird and the silence was a little intimidating! No one had noticed that there hadn’t been a single passerby for quite some time.
Kayden slowly shifted his eyes to the women, who all looked like they were being held at gunpoint. They took a few steps back in fear, staring at Kayden in terror.
Kayden was definitely a nightmare for them right now. No one knew what he was going to do, but they knew he was no merciful. Because Orson was still lying on the ground!
How could he make someone pass out with one punch?
Everyone was in shock and they no longer looked down upon Kayden now.
“Eddie, what did George say? Is he not coming?” A woman asked with a nervous face.
Just after that, one of them said with a disappointed face, “Didn’t Mr. Willys just say that Eddie was a braggart. He was just bragging!”
That was like a slap in Eddie’s face!
The women didn’t stop there and continued, “Do you guys think someone like Eddie who likes to pretend can call George here? Maybe he doesn’t even know George!”
“He doesn’t know George but he acts like they are close friends? Eddie, you are such a braggart. We actually thought you could call George here.”
The woman who spoke was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears.
“It seems he’s not so powerful as he said. He’s just a poor loser. He’s full of big words just because he’s wearing expensive clothes! I thought he was really someone. It’s a good thing I wasn’t targeted by him, or I would have wasted my time.”
“That’s right. I met a guy like him once, and I got two thousand dollars stolen by that guy! I think Eddie is just like him. He’s here to get laid and to get our money!”
Their words were enough to show that they were vain and greedy. These women were asked out by Orson, whom they met online.
During the meal, when they heard Eddie say that he was the son of the Trenton family, they kept flattering him, trying to get some benefits.
The woman who particularly admired George even went to the restroom to let Eddie touch her, and if someone hadn’t knocked on the door, the two of them might have done it right in there. Luckily, she didn’t. Because if they did it, it would have been for nothing.
Eddie heard and clenched his teeth in anger.
How could they say that about him!
“Nonsense! Don’t you slander me! I might have lost today, but I’m not the kind of person you guys are talking about. You think I would want money from you?” Eddie gritted his teeth and chided at the women.
The women stopped talking when they saw Eddie like this and just watched him carefully.
Eddie thought that George really screwed him and his reputation in Vernon. What happened tonight was bound to get out, and as soon as it did, he would never be respected in Vernon.
Just as he was restless, he froze.
“What are you doing?” Eddie became tense and couldn’t help but take two steps backward.
He saw Kayden walking towards him step by step. Kayden still maintained his usual stance, but now he was very different from that hillbilly Eddie thought he was. He looked tall and intimidating.
Although Eddie was the son of a powerful family, he knew nothing about a War God.
He just felt bad, like he was being pressed down by something and he couldn’t breathe.
“Kayden!” Suddenly, Ann rushed up and grabbed Kayden’s arm.
She gripped his arm tightly with both hands and shook her head at him, “Don’t, Kayden! He’s hateful, but don’t kill him!”
She was afraid that Kayden would kill Eddie, so she rushed forward to stop Kayden. Her cousin was familiar killing, and for him, killing someone was so simple.
His stories were still circulating to this day and inside Ann’s head.
If he really wanted to kill Eddie, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
Kayden didn’t bother with her, just stared straight at Eddie and said, “I should be the one asking you what you’re going to do. Twenty minutes have gone by and your guy hasn’t shown up. Should you do something about it?”
Eddie shivered and was no longer so arrogant.
This was the first time he saw such a terrifying Kayden. He could not move!
It was so terrifying that he knew Kayden wasn’t like ordinary men.
So he bent for his life. He stammered, “I will leave. I will never lay a finger on your girlfriend.”
He retreated!
Seeing this, the women cast a scornful glance at him. Now Eddie had become a clown who liked to brag.
Eddie was different from other rich guys. The others would never bend in front of someone they despise.
But Eddie cherished his life. He didn’t want to end up like Orson, being punched and left in a coma!
He knew clearly he was no match for Kayden!
