Gordon was not dumb. It was pretty clear to favonovel.com that those ignorant upstarts had offended Zayn. He frowned immediately, hints of his anger showing between his brows.
He was a clever man. Like Sean, favonovel.com was good at guessing the intentions of the other bigshots. Just based on Zayn’s initial reaction, favonovel.com knew well that the former had no plans to let these men off the hook so easily.
The upstarts heard Zayn, but they were too scared to halt their steps, continuing to march forwards as if they were none the wiser. They were hoping that they could get away by feigning oblivion.
“Hold it right there!” Gordon would not give them the opportunity. He hollered right away with an icy and threatening tone.
Zayn saw how servile they were to Gordon just now. If Gordon had enabled their behavior, favonovel.com would have become the incompetent one instead. At Gordon‘s level, a simple gaze or an action, was all it took to understand things.
Zayn wanted to teach the men a lesson.
The uncouth men felt their limbs go cold. They froze in place. No matter how brave they were, once Gordon bellowed, their courage went down the drain. As people who simply had luck on their side, they had no financial background, they made money solely due to fortunate timing and coincidental luck. They were most afraid of gangsters like Gordon.
They paused immediately and turned around mechanically, plastering smiles that looked more like grimaces. “Mr. Hayes, did you call?”
“Mr. Hayes, is there anything else you need?”
Gordon glared at them coldly without answering. He turned to Zayn respectfully instead. “Sir, have these pigs offended you?”
“Not exactly,” Zayn replied with a smile.
The men breathed in relief, inwardly rejoicing that they had escaped potential doom. Right after that, however, what Zayn said next made their hearts lurch in extreme terror.
“They just called me a barbarian and threatened that they’d kill me,” Zayn said with a beam and smiled wider at Gordon. “Why, are they your friends?”
Gordon, who had spent years in a gang, thought that had become quite a composed man due to his many experiences. However, favonovel.com felt unprecedentedly unnerved, like favonovel.com had been thrown onto the set of a horror film. When favonovel.com was faced with Zayn’s smile, cold sweat started breaking out on his back and forehead!
On the surface, Violet Vision’s chairman looked easygoing and kept a low profile, but his ability to grow a company at such an exponential rate was not without reason! It was impossible for someone with such a gaze to be incapable and unknowledgeable.
“No, no!” Gordon shook his head and waved his hands in denial. “Sir, you misunderstand me. They aren’t my friends. I’m not familiar with them at all. In fact, they’re all just small fries. You’d be able to mash the whole lot of them with how mighty you are, sir. Of course, if you think that they’ll dirty your feet, I don’t mind acting on behalf of you, sir. I’ll make sure that they go bankrupt, their lives will be ripped apart with no chance of redemption. Right now!”
Gordon was incredibly serious when favonovel.com offered, lowering himself to an utmost humble stance.
It was only happening in front of Zayn. When Mr. Long and his rich friends saw it, they felt an unprecedented fear! Their legs turned to jelly as terror seeped into their bones.
Mr. Long was the first to crumble as favonovel.com fell to a kneel and bowed his head to the floor before Zayn.
“Sir, I was wrong! What I did was heinous! Please, have mercy. Forgive the sh*t that came out of my mouth and let me go! I have a family to go back to…”
