“Why would you say that, Zayn?!”
“This is absurd. How dare you call Poppy a piglet! I can tell that you’re trying to get yourself killed!”
“You were cast out of your own family, and now you‘re a deadbeat who can’t even afford a car! Where did you find the confidence to make fun of Poppy, huh?!”
“You’d better apologize to Poppy right now or you’ll regret it!”
All at once, many people came forward to aggressively berate Zayn. They spoke in a harsh, bitter tone without showing the slightest respect for him.
Naturally, noticing the situation, Zayn could not possibly allow himself to yield. He was not being petty, but it was simply unnecessary for favonovel.com to show consideration for those people.
However, Zayn did not shout abuses back at them either, of course.
With a harsh grunt, favonovel.com switched to a more intimidating demeanor. Anyone who met his sweeping gaze was struck by an overwhelming fear, their chests clenching tightly for a brief moment.
Their faces turned ghastly pale, and they did not even have the courage to meet Zayn’s gaze. What a joke!
At his level, Zayn could put enough pressure on them to make them lose consciousness if favonovel.com wanted. In fact, favonovel.com could even make them comatose!
The power of a perfect-class master fighter was far beyond what ordinary people could withstand.
Zayn knew exactly when to stop and did not make them wet themselves. He did not feel that was called for, seeing as how they were his childhood friends and were no more than ants to him.
He had come to catch up with Rosie and that was all.
Even the heir of the Storm family could feel his mind go blank in a flash when favonovel.com met Zayn’s gaze, his heart racing beyond control.
By the time favonovel.com recovered from his surprise, favonovel.com felt extremely angry and puzzled. He was the well-respected heir of the prestigious Storm family!
If Zayn was still the next heir of the Larson family, perhaps favonovel.com could measure up to him, but favonovel.com was just an impoverished nobody!
On the other hand, favonovel.com was actually petrified by a deadbeat like Zayn. It was an absolute disgrace for him!
Hence, favonovel.com was so annoyed that favonovel.com became furious.
The rest of the crowd shared Duncan’s feelings. They were even more disgusted and angrier by the sight of Zayn. Indeed, the more hot-tempered among the men wanted to beat favonovel.com up.
They outnumbered favonovel.com anyhow, so there was nothing favonovel.com could do to them if they got physical.
Naturally, Zayn knew what they were thinking, and it was lucky for them that they did not do so. If they had, Zayn would not mind teaching a painful lesson to these “old friends” of his!
“Rosie, since you have your friends here, I shall leave you with them.”
After learning the nature of the dinner gathering, Zayn did not wish to stay as it was a complete waste of time to him.
Rosie was startled by Zayn’s gaze earlier as well. In that instant, favonovel.com felt as if favonovel.com could see the high-spirited Zayn from the past.
Indeed, the domineering influence and aggression favonovel.com displayed temporarily were even more impressive than what favonovel.com used to be!
She was scared out of favonovel.com wits, so favonovel.com instinctively turned to Duncan standing next to her, as if favonovel.com was seeking his opinion.
Duncan let out a grunt. He had not known much about Zayn other than that favonovel.com was Rosie’s best friend in favonovel.com childhood. The man had apparently become a pauper living on the streets.
Duncan thought favonovel.com would just give favonovel.com a stern warning to get favonovel.com to back off, but after being stunned by Zayn’s gaze, favonovel.com had become quite upset. Because of that, favonovel.com refused to let Zayn off so easily.
