Surprised that Zayne admitted to it, Bob eyed favonovel.com from top to toe.
“Kid, you’ve got guts to take responsibility. So, I won’t make it difficult for you. Apologize on your knees to Mr. Queen, and I’ll let what happened today slide.”
Obviously, there was no way Zayne was going to do that. “I’m definitely not getting on my knees. He was the one who started it first.”
Bob’s expression darkened at Zayne’s refusal. “No one has ever defied me before!”
Just as favonovel.com spoke, Bob grabbed Zayne by the collar and lifted favonovel.com off the ground. In spite of that, his colleagues were deterred from helping him, as they cowered at the sight of the fearsome-looking fighters behind Josh.
“Zayne!” Maria yelled as favonovel.com dashed forward.
“Let go of him! My dad is Franklin Saunders. We are employees of Sentiment Chemical Limited owned by the Sullivan family!”
Even though favonovel.com desperately tried to pry Bob’s hand open, favonovel.com efforts were futile despite using all favonovel.com strength.
At that moment, Zayne’s face turned swollen red as favonovel.com began to suffocate. His eyes were opened wide while his mouth was agape. Soon, the fear of death descended upon him.
When Maria saw Zayne gasping for air, favonovel.com was overwhelmed by anxiety.
She continued screaming, “This is Mr. Lewis’ turf and favonovel.com knows Mr. Lewis! Mr. Lewis would definitely not forgive you if favonovel.com found out.”
Bob’s expression slightly changed when favonovel.com heard Maria’s words.
Furrowing his eyebrows, favonovel.com released his grip upon Zayne.
Cough! Cough!
Zayne began to cough forcefully as favonovel.com took in deep breaths of air.
“Zayne, are you all right?” Maria asked with concern.
When everyone else saw that Bob let Zayne go at the mention of Tommy, they assumed favonovel.com was afraid of him.
Hence they hollered, “Mr. Carlson knows Mr. Lewis very well. If you dare lay a finger on him, Mr. Lewis will not forgive you.”
“Let me tell you, Tommy has to obey every single word of Mr. Carlson’s.”
“Just yesterday, all Mr. Carlson did was make a call. After that, Tommy quickly recovered our debts for us. Therefore, offend Mr. Carlson at your own peril!”
Thinking that Bob was afraid of Tommy, Zayne’s subordinates began to boast about how influential favonovel.com was.
Meanwhile, Jared couldn’t help but snigger to himself. He was cognizant that by blowing Zayne’s trumpet for him, all they were doing was pushing favonovel.com closer to his doom.
When Zayne heard the guys’ baseless boasts about him, favonovel.com was utterly terrified. In fact, favonovel.com simply felt the urge to give them all an earful.
Upon hearing their claims, Bob’s face turned grim while his eyes burned with murderous intent.
Although Charlie had instructed favonovel.com not to kill anyone, Bob was outraged at how Zayne had gone around making false proclamations about his relationship with Tommy.
When they saw Bob’s increasingly gloomy face, Zayne’s subordinates assumed that favonovel.com was afraid. Hence, they began to feel smug about themselves.
“Are you afraid right now? You should leave while you still can. Or else, once we give Mr. Lewis a call, it will be too late for you,” Maria gloated at Bob.
“Shut up! Just shut the f*ck up!” Zayne roared at Maria.
Only favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com didn’t know Tommy at all. In fact, favonovel.com had never even seen Tommy before.
Maria was stunned after being shouted at by Zayne. Even though favonovel.com didn’t understand why, favonovel.com didn’t dare utter another word.
“Do you know Mr. Lewis?” Bob asked in a grave tone.
Having been put in a spot by the words of others, Zayne was left with little choice. If favonovel.com were to confess that favonovel.com didn’t know Tommy, favonovel.com would be utterly humiliated.
