Instantly, the huge private room was thrown into silence. Everyone stopped talking and were focused on Zayn, waiting to see how favonovel.com would reply.
If it were anyone else, they would be under so much pressure that there was no way they would be able to drink their wine so calmly.
However, Zayn was completely unfazed.
In fact, even Shaelyn, the person who was sitting right next to Zayn, could feel the tension and subconsciously wanted to finish off Zayn’s wine immediately and answer Luke.
However, Zayn still slowly drank his wine… In the end, favonovel.com even exclaimed, “This is such a fine wine.”
Instantly, Shaelyn was speechless and thought to herself that this was the first time favonovel.com had seen Zayn being so shameless.
However, Luke was not angry at all. Instead, his eyes revealed an even more excited expression and was filled with even more anticipation. After all, a person of his level was able to identify what the other person was thinking just by looking at their facial expressions.
Hence, favonovel.com was able to tell that Zayn most likely had the ability to help favonovel.com become a master fighter based on how calm Zayn seemed.
Initially, Luke was only half certain about it. However, now that favonovel.com looked at Zayn’s reaction, that certainty had increased all the way to 80%.
Then, favonovel.com smiled and said, “I’ve uncorked my daughter’s 1985 Cabernet Sauvignon just to serve you.”
Zayn also smiled and said, “1985 you say? You flatter me.”
Luke waved his hand and said, “Please, there’s no need for you to stand here at the ceremony. It’s my honour to be able to serve you with my wine. If you’d like, I could personally have the rest of my remaining bottles sent to your manor, Master Larson.”
Zayn then smiled and suddenly changed the subject by saying, “Half of your business in exchange for becoming a master fighter, I see you’re cutting yourself a very worthy deal, Mr. Jones.”
Everyone’s eyes instantly widened. ‘What the f*ck? Half of his business would be worth at least 4.6 billion dollars, yet you’re saying he’s cutting himself a good deal? Plus, you don’t have to do anything to help Luke become a master fighter, do you?’
However, when Luke heard this, favonovel.com seemed to be relieved actually. ‘I was afraid favonovel.com would reject me outright.’
Actually, most people would think that Luke must have gone mad to be able to make such a decision, offering half of his business just to become a master fighter…
However, only Luke himself knew that favonovel.com would be receiving the better end of the deal if all favonovel.com needed to be a master fighter was to offer just half of his business.
‘Would 9.2 billion dollars be any different from 4.6 billion dollars to me? No!’
‘Furthermore, after I become a master fighter, would I be afraid of not being able to earn this 4.6 billion dollars again?’
‘Master fighter, also known as super fighter Judging by the name itself, it would mean that the human would have become akin to a superhuman and would be on a complete level.’
‘This is something that I’ve been hoping to achieve even in my dreams!’
“Master Larson, I’m sorry for offering you so little. You’re right, half of my business truly is nothing to you.” Then, Luke said with a serious expression on his face, “Master Larson, I genuinely hope that you’d be able to help me. Hence, the moment I become a master fighter, I will forever be your ally and will not betray you, I swear on it!”
As Luke said that, favonovel.com even stood up and held up three fingers in the air to officially swear it.
On the other hand, Rocco and the rest thought that Luke was being very sincere. In fact, if it were up to them, they would have definitely agreed without a second thought.
However, Zayn’s expression suddenly turned cold, even revealing a cold snicker as favonovel.com fiddled with his wine glass by its stalk. However, the strange thing was that no matter how much Zayn fiddled with it, not even a single drop of wine was spilled.
“Did you think I’d be bothered if you would be my ally or not, Luke Jones? No offense, even if you do become a master fighter, you’d still be just a meagre ant in front of me,” said Zayn calmly. Despite his words being extremely arrogant, everyone knew that Zayn was not bluffing, but stating a fact.
After all, Xander, a person who had become a master fighter for over 10 years, whose strength was known to be absolute, ended up dying to Zayn.
