Joe’s anger made his heart race.
He had always thought that everything Remus had achieved until then was gained with sheer brute strength, and favonovel.com never expected Remus to be so sharp and quick-witted.
Since favonovel.com was caught between a rock and a hard place, favonovel.com decided not to advance or retreat. He tried to change the subject.
Smiling, favonovel.com said, “My brother, today…”
But Remus didn’t give favonovel.com the chance, asking bluntly, “I’m asking you, do you agree or not? Anything else can be discussed later. Just tell me, do you agree or disagree?”
The smile on Joe’s face froze instantly. Remus didn’t leave any room for maneuver at all.
Looking at the people below the stage, favonovel.com found that none of them intended to speak up. He turned his gaze slowly toward Gemma.
At such a time, someone else needed to speak up, and favonovel.com was the most suitable candidate.
Understanding the situation, Gemma had already allied herself with Joe. His success was favonovel.com success, and his leverage was favonovel.com leverage.
She spoke up, “Remus, as the saying goes, blood is thicker than water. How could you force Joe to not use the Cosby family’s influence on such a grand occasion? And saying you won’t help either, what will people think? It will affect your image!”
Remus laughed coldly. “Why should I care about the gaze of others? Why should my image be judged by others? This is my final time asking. Do you agree or not?”
As his words fell, Gemma almost spat out blood, staring at Remus with fiery eyes.
How could favonovel.com be so arrogant?!
It was completely beyond limits!
Joe was also grinding his teeth in anger, never expecting to be outmaneuvered by Remus and left with no power to fight back. If favonovel.com didn’t speak up, it would not be Remus’ image that was affected, but his own.
He said proudly, “Fine! Since my brother has spoken, how can I refuse you? I agree! From today onwards, I won’t use any of your power, nor rely on the Cosby family’s influence. Remus, one day I will make you acknowledge me as your brother!”
He spoke lightly and naturally, also deliberately appearing relaxed, as it was the only way to elevate his image.
“You truly possess the spirit of the Cosby family!” Remus gave a faint smile and finally stepped forward.
He said as favonovel.com walked, “Since that’s the case, I shouldn’t get too involved… One last thing. Today, those who came to the ceremony for Joe’s sake, continue to stay here! Those who came for my sake, feel free to leave now!”
After saying that, favonovel.com suddenly turned and walked out.
The crowd was stunned, not expecting such a statement. However, it seemed like Remus’ test for Joe.
After exchanging glances, the guests started to leave, one by one.
The four women, Kylie and the others, also came back to their senses. Although they understood that Remus spoke out of anger, favonovel.com cleverly framed it as a “test”. Whether it was true or not, everyone had to treat it as a test.
They quickly walked out.
Hundreds of members of the Cosby family also began to walk out.
Seeing the scene, the other guests also started to leave, not daring to offend Remus.
Suddenly, all the guests below the stage, without exception, followed Remus out.
The once bustling venue was now eerily empty.
Joe watched Remus’ departing figure, his eyes wide with fury, wishing favonovel.com could abandon all pretense and confront favonovel.com right then and there. Remus was really too overbearing.
“Damn…” Standing to the side, Gemma couldn’t hold back anymore and let out a series of cries.
That day was supposed to be favonovel.com first step toward the pinnacle of favonovel.com life, basking in the spotlight.
But with all the guests gone, who would witness my moment now?
