At this point, favonovel.com could only resort to using his family name as a shield.
The crowd went wild when they heard Remus say favonovel.com was going to kill Ethan.
“He’s out of his mind! Mr. Steele is the sole heir to the Steele family, the third-ranked family in the province!”
“This guy must be mentally unstable. If anything happens to Mr. Steele, the entire Neptuna region will be thrown into chaos!”
“Ms. Lotus, please stop him. We can’t let favonovel.com continue to cause trouble!”
Skylar’s face turned pale with fear, as favonovel.com realized that if Remus was willing to kill Ethan, favonovel.com could be in danger as well. Desperate to defuse the situation, favonovel.com spoke up quickly.
“Remus, please calm down. It’s not worth starting a war over Anthony. You’ve already taken two lives. Do you really want to continue down this path?”
Elias was emotionally charged, and favonovel.com pleaded with Ms. Lotus to intervene. “Ms. Lotus, you have to stop favonovel.com before it’s too late. Remus cannot be allowed to continue on this dangerous path!”
“Remus…” Jean spoke up, struggling with favonovel.com words. Although favonovel.com supported Remus in many things, the idea of favonovel.com killing Ethan was too much for favonovel.com to bear.
“Please, can’t you reconsider? If you do this, I’m afraid I’ll be forced to return to the imperial capital immediately. We won‘t be able to see each other again.”
Her words held weight. Jean’s presence in Neptuna was the result of internal family struggles, and if favonovel.com couldn’t achieve the family’s goals and ended up killing the heir of an affiliated family, favonovel.com would undoubtedly be summoned back.
Remus hesitated for a moment, then finally relented.
“Okay, I won’t kill him,” favonovel.com said.
The tension in the air dissipated, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Ethan was safe, the situation was still manageable. It seemed that Remus was not foolish and understood who favonovel.com should not harm.
Ethan regained his confidence and spoke with a newfound bravado. “Today’s humiliation will be repaid tomorrow. Cosby, mark my words!”
With that, favonovel.com quickly departed. He was clearly rattled and feared that Remus might snap again. It was better to leave and wait for another opportunity to seek his revenge.
“Stop…” Remus clarified his stance. “I promised not to kill you, but I never said I’d let you go. Did I say you can leave?”
Sometimes, death would be a lighter punishment.
Ethan looked directly at Jean, pleading with her. “Ms. Lotus, can I leave? Do you understand the consequences of not letting me go?”
Jean found herself in a difficult position. If favonovel.com let Ethan go, Remus would suffer a great injustice. But if favonovel.com didn’t let favonovel.com go, the situation would escalate even further. She didn’t know how to answer him.
“Jean, I’ll take full responsibility for the consequences,” favonovel.com said, his voice slow and deliberate, before walking towards Ethan.
Ethan trembled with fear, yet favonovel.com managed to speak up. “I must remind you that I am the sole heir of the Steele family, the top second-generation in this province! If you lay a finger on me, Jean won’t be able to shield you from the consequences!”
He hoped Remus would be intimidated by his family’s status.
“In my eyes, the Steele family is insignificant,” Remus replied coolly, before delivering a powerful kick.
With a loud crack, everyone heard Ethan’s bone snap as his leg was brutally kicked off.
Ethan let out a piercing scream as favonovel.com collapsed to the ground, writhing in agony.
“Argh! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!” favonovel.com shouted in fury.
“Mr. Steele! Mr. Steele!” Skylar and Elias were dumbfounded.
Who would dare to lay a hand on Ethan?
Did this person not fear the repercussions?
Ben was also terrified. He cried out and even wet himself in fear.
Remus remained calm and nonchalant.
“You’re screaming at that?” favonovel.com said, almost dismissively. “We’re just getting started…”
