LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 66
Chapter 66: Don’t Cause Trouble
A man beside Ronan Toft glared at him and shouted, “They teased our friend first.”
“Bam!” Bruce King suddenly swung his arm and slapped that man’s face. He glared at him and shouted, “Who the hell are you?”
“You…” Many of his friends were about to rush forward.
“What are you doing? If any of you dare to move again, I’ll hack you into pieces!” Bruce King glared at them, and the ferocious spark in his eyes intensified. The two lackeys beside him immediately took out two knives.
“Everyone, don’t move.” Ronan Toft quickly stopped everyone.
There was no need for Ronan Toft to stop them. As soon as they saw the knives, everyone was immediately frightened. In a bare-handed fight, everyone relied on the alcohol in their blood and some courage. However, this was a long knife, and it could kill with one slash.
The women screamed in fear and hid behind the men.
“You little b*stards, weren’t all of you very arrogant just now? Try being arrogant with me again.” Bruce King gritted his teeth and swept his gaze around again. He was very satisfied to see everyone trembling.
Ronan Toft laughed dryly and said, “Mr King, this is our fault. This matter… how should it be settled?”
“Settle?” Bruce King looked at Ronan Toft and said, “You seem to be rather smart. Then I won’t make things difficult for you. Firstly, you hit my brother so hard that his teeth were knocked out. We will just take 100,000 dollars for medical fees.”
Everyone’s expressions turned ugly. 100,000 dollars? Were these guys trying to rob them?
Ronan Toft grinned and said, “Mr King, can it be lesser? This… is a little too much.”
Bruce King glared and roared, “F*ck, this amount is so little because I haven’t been willing to lower myself to the level of you little b*stards for the past few years. If it were in the past, I would have demanded a million dollars from you! None of you would have escaped.”
Ronan Toft gritted his teeth and said, “Yes, yes. Then let’s pool our resources.”
Bruce King snorted and said, “The second thing is that my brother was beaten up by you guys. This mental damage compensation will be a substantial one.”
All of them were dumbfounded. Although 100,000 dollars was a lot, it seemed like they could still afford it if they pooled their money together. But it would be difficult to pay for the mental damages. Most importantly, they did not know how much the other party wanted.
“What about the emotional damage you’ve caused? I can’t be bothered to ask you brats for money. It’s very simple. My brother wants to drink with your friend. So get your friend to come over and drink with all of us. As long as you make all my brothers happy, this matter will be over.”
All the women were dumbfounded. Drinking with these people was definitely not that simple.
Ronan Toft and the others did not know what to do at this moment. All of a sudden, they fell silent.
“You guys are too much.” At this moment, a woman’s voice sounded.
Bruce King and the others immediately looked at Sheila Zinc and suddenly realized that there was a beauty in their midst. Bruce King’s eyes lit up.
Over the years, Bruce King had been rich and powerful. There were many beauties who had approached him. He was no longer that interested in ordinary beauties. However, when he saw Sheila Zinc, he was instantly mesmerized. Her kind of aura was something that even a hundred women who took the initiative to approach him, could not compare to.
“Not bad, young lady. Since you want to stand up for your friend, come and drink with me today. If I’m satisfied, I won’t pursue the rest of the matters.”
“Boss!” A lackey behind him poked Bruce King and whispered in his ear, “This woman is somewhat a celebrity who has been on television.”
Bruce King narrowed his eyes and said, “A celebrity?”
The lackey said, “I don’t think she’s a real celebrity. She’s not an actress, but a violinist. My niece plays the violin and she always mentions her name to me, so I remembered.”
Bruce King nodded and looked at Sheila Zinc. “So you’re actually a celebrity. Then I have to give you some respect.”
Sheila Zinc said calmly, “Thank you.”
Bruce King said slowly, “Even if I say that I’m giving you respect, you have to return it, right? Otherwise, if my brother gets beaten up and I leave just like that, it won’t look good if word gets out in the future.”
“Then what is your request?”
“Bring the alcohol!” Bruce King shouted. Immediately, a lackey brought over beer and two glasses.
After filling the two glasses, Bruce King drawled, “It’s very simple. As long as you drink with me, this matter will be considered settled.”
Sheila Zinc looked at the two glasses and said, “Is it that simple?”
Bruce King laughed and said, “That’s right.”
Sheila Zinc nodded and reached for a glass. “Okay, I’ll drink it.”
Bruce King also picked up his glass and narrowed his eyes. “Wait, don’t you think it’s not so fun to drink it like this?”
“Huh?” Sheila Zinc frowned. She knew it wouldn’t be that easy.
Bruce King chuckled and said, “Let’s cross our hands and drink from each other’s glasses.”
Without thinking, Sheila Zinc said, “No way.”
Bruce King’s face darkened and he said, “I’m giving you face by letting you off with a glass of beer. Do you think that just because you’re a little famous, I, Bruce King, have to respect you? I’ve had fun with many minor celebrities like you. Who doesn’t listen to me obediently? If you don’t agree to this today… we don’t have to be polite with them. My men will break every single one of your friends’ leg for you. As for the women, I will pull them over to drink with us.”
Everyone glanced at Sheila Zinc.
“Sheila Zinc!” Hayley Lands looked at Sheila Zinc pleadingly and stammered, “Drinking from his glass… doesn’t seem overboard.”
Sheila Zinc hesitated for a moment. Bruce King’s man immediately waved his knife, looking threatening.
“You’re not allowed to touch me, and no photos,” Sheila Zinc said slowly after taking a deep breath.
“No problem. I, Bruce King, always keep my word.” He laughed and answered readily.
All of them secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as Sheila Zinc was about to take the glass, William Scott stood beside her and took the glass. “Who does he think he is? Is he worthy of drinking with you?”
A look of excitement suddenly appeared on Sheila Zinc’s face. There was even a hint of slyness in her eyes.
William Scott’s face darkened. He had fallen into Sheila Zinc’s trap. She just wanted to see if he would stand up for her. However, Sheila Zinc was really confident in him. There were so many of Bruce King’s men. Did she really believe that he could handle them?
“William Scott, what are you doing? Don’t cause trouble!” Before Bruce King and the others could speak, Hayley Lands shouted first.
