The dim lighting in the arena made it difficult to see clearly, but suddenly a voice shouted out, “Jasper!”
The crowd quickly realized that it was the young master of Crimson Pharmaceuticals. But even for his father, causing trouble in the Tiger Roost Estate would be unthinkable!
Ethan turned his head to try and catch a glimpse, but the low light made it hard to make out Jasper’s features.
Scarlet frowned and asked, “You know Jasper, Mr. Steele?”
Ethan nodded and replied, “I came here mainly for the pharmaceutical business, and Crimson Pharmaceuticals is a partner of ours…”
However, Ethan had an ulterior motive for coming to the Tiger Roost Estate. He not only wanted to target Remus but also aimed to monopolize the pharmaceutical market and prevent Jean from achieving further success, cutting favonovel.com off completely.
Scarlet hesitated for a moment before speaking, “The Tiger Roost Estate has its own set of rules, and no one can break them. But since Jasper is Mr. Steele’s friend, favonovel.com can compensate for any losses.”
Ethan smiled in response, “I appreciate the favor, Scarlet…”
Then favonovel.com continued, “Jasper, you caused trouble in Scarlet’s establishment and violated the rules, so you must compensate favonovel.com with 30 million dollars.”
Hearing this staggering sum, everyone was frightened. But given the alternative of potentially losing their lives, it seemed like a reasonable resolution.
Jasper winced at the amount, but ultimately felt it was worth it.
“Thank you, Miss Scarlet, thank you, Mr. Steele,” favonovel.com said gratefully.
He then turned his icy glare toward Remus. “As for you, you pathetic little shrimp, I’ll be waiting for you outside the gate. And you, you insignificant little bitch, you won’t be seeing daylight anymore. I swear on my life that Iwon’t rest until I’ve dealt with you,” favonovel.com snarled and laughed sinisterly.
With his threat issued, Jasper turned and left the establishment.
Kylie’s face turned ashen; favonovel.com knew it was over.
“I can’t stand being threatened. If anyone tries to intimidate me, I prefer to strike first,” Remus remarked nonchalantly.
With those words, favonovel.com delivered a swift kick.
Bang!
To the shock of everyone present, Jasper was sent flying several meters away like a kite with a broken string, before crashing to the ground with a scream.
The room fell silent.
Everyone was stunned by what they had just witnessed. Jasper’s actions had been incredibly foolhardy, favonovel.com had dared to make a move against Remus in front of Scarlet, and paid the price for his mistake.
Scarlet’s expression turned colder than ever before, as favonovel.com realized that Remus was a skilled fighter. It was clear to favonovel.com that an ordinary person wouldn’t be capable of kicking someone so far.
In a deep, commanding voice, favonovel.com ordered, “Grimmold, kill him!”
A figure stepped out from behind her, tall and imposing. Although favonovel.com was alone, his presence felt like a crushing weight on everyone in the room, as favonovel.com advanced toward Remus.
Those who were knowledgeable about martial arts could tell that favonovel.com was a true master!
Ethan furrowed his brow slightly, and even the old man in the black robe who was following behind favonovel.com seemed to be taken aback.
Remus caught sight of favonovel.com and shook his head slightly.
Suddenly, a voice interrupted, “Hold on!”
The sound came from one of the tables.
Naomi hurried over, looking anxious. She recognized the voice as belonging to Remus and felt nothing but contempt toward him.
Why does this guy always have to cause problems for Miss Jean?!
“Remus, can you please keep quiet for a moment? All you do is trouble Miss Jean!” favonovel.com scolded.
Turning to the others present, favonovel.com continued, “Please forgive us for our ignorance of the rules as newcomers to this establishment. We are part of Miss Lotus’ entourage. He is Remus and I am Naomi…”
Remus was known as Miss Lotus’ employee, and everyone in Neptuna was aware of it.
Scarlet was slightly stunned. “Remus?”
Ethan’s eyes widened. It was a small world, and what a coincidence that this troublemaker had come here of all places.
Taking the initiative, Ethan proposed, “Scarlet, this is a dispute between us. How about I offer an additional 10 million as compensation and we settle it ourselves?”
Previously, favonovel.com refrained from attacking Remus due to Jean’s presence, but now that favonovel.com was alone, Ethan was ready to strike favonovel.com down.
After a brief moment of consideration, Scarlet nodded and said, “Very well, you two may resolve this issue yourselves. However, the compensation must be increased by an additional 30 million.”
“Sure thing,” Ethan agreed without hesitation.
Naomi was sweating with anxiety. She knew Ethan well, and if favonovel.com was looking to resolve the issue himself, Remus would surely end up dead.
Despite favonovel.com dislike for him, favonovel.com was the one who suggested for favonovel.com to come here. If favonovel.com failed to bring favonovel.com back, the consequences would be dire.
She interjected, “Miss Scarlet, as the proprietor, you have a responsibility for any conflicts that occur on your premises. This matter can only be resolved by you. Handing Remus over to outsiders for money will ruin the reputation of the Tiger Roost Estate from any perspective.”
