Chapter 17: Slap Himself Ten Times in the Face
Chapter 17: Slap Himself Ten Times in the Face
Mr. Hayes looked at Jacob solemnly and asked.
His response went beyond everyone's expectations.
In the eyes of everyone present, a full-time bodyguard of a rich man like Glen should be mighty enough
to take a group of people down alone.
What's more, Mr. Hayes wasn't like other bodyguards who were in suits, leather shoes, and
sunglasses. Instead, he was slovenly, making everyone think that he might be a peerless expert. After
all, this was the case in TV dramas.
Mr. Hayes should be able to kick the ass of a person like Jacob easily and made him kneel down to
beg for mercy, right?
Originally, everyone was eager to leave and create an opportunity for Glen. But now, they weren't in a
hurry anymore, and they wanted to watch a show before leaving.
However, the show was there, but it was completely different from what they imagined.
What they wanted to see was the scene of a poor pleb slapping a rich man without knowing the
consequences, and then, he was beaten by the rich man's bodyguards to the point of begging for
mercy.
But it seemed that the scene was reversed. Could it be that the pleb would counterattack and slap the
rich man in the face?
This scene seemed to be more interesting.
Were highborns born high?
They had to flatter Glen in normal times, but they were very happy to see a fool humiliate him.
On the surface, everyone stood on Glen's side and glared at Jacob, but in their hearts, they were
looking forward to seeing more wonderful scenes.
"Mr. Hayes, what the hell are you doing?"
Glen saw that Mr. Hayes didn't listen to his orders to cripple Jacob. Instead, Mr. Hayes held a
respectful attitude. He tried to suppress his emotions, wanting to maintain his gentle demeanor, but in
the end, he couldn't help but curse.
In front of so many people, he failed commanding his own bodyguard! How embarrassing it was?
Moreover, Jacob slapped him. If he didn't cripple Jacob today, he would become a joke in the upper
class of Riverside City.
A pure joke.
It would be even funnier than Galip collecting someone else's garbage.
Jacob must be crippled for slapping him!
"What are you waiting for? Slap him in the face until it swells!"
Glen ordered again.
However, Mr. Hayes still didn't move.
Jacob looked meaningfully at Mr. Hayes and said indifferently, "Tell him to slap himself ten times in the
face and I won't pursue this matter."
What?
Glen's eyes widened.
Arrogant! Too arrogant.
"Abbott Hayes!"
Glen was furious to the extreme. Gentlemanly demeanor? Screw it! He no longer had any politeness
for this bodyguard and directly addressed him by his name.
Abbott finally reacted.
Seeing this, Glen's expression softened a little. He had witnessed how terrifying Abbott was. Although
he looked slovenly, he was savage, and he could even tear people apart with bare hands. He had even
exterminated a gang in Riverside City on his own, leaving behind a reputation for pitilessness. If it
wasn't for Glen father's kindness towards Abbott, Abbott wouldn't have agreed to be his bodyguard.
As long as Abbott made a move, even if Jacob was with utmost capabilities, he would have to kneel to
beg for mercy.
However, Abbott did make a move. He turned around to face Glen and resignedly said, "Young Master,
slap yourself ten times."
"What?"
Glen was completely shocked.
The other people in the private room were also shocked.
However, this time, Glen suddenly calmed down.
Abbott would never betray him and embarrass him.
Thinking back, Abbott's attitude towards Jacob was very respectful.
"Young Master, please slap yourself." Abbott reminded him again, and his tone was very serious.
Jacob also looked at Glen with interest.
He'd like to see if this rich man was smart enough.
Being smart meant survival.
Being stupid meant being crippled!
"Alright!"
Unexpectedly, although Glen had a long face, he didn't explode.
He looked at Jacob with resentment.
Then...
Slap!
Slap!
Slap!
One by one, he slapped his face.
"Be smart, and don't be fooled by others without knowing it. In that case, you deserve to die," Jacob
said indifferently.
Ten slaps, like ten humiliating imprints, were deeply engraved on his face, and he would never be able
to erase them in this lifetime.
After slapping himself ten times, Glen didn't linger. His face was swollen and he left.
Abbott nodded at Jacob and followed Glen.
Young Master had never suffered such a loss in and such a great humiliation in his life. He was a little
worried that he would do something stupid. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Fortunately, although Glen was a dandy, he was not at an idiot.
"Abbott, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I will definitely tell my father about what
happened today."
After Abbott caught up with Glen, Glen's eyes were filled with anger when looking at him.
"Young Master, even if you don't tell the patriarch, I will."
"Sharif, the young master of the Bell family, was crippled, and Death Bell, the underworld boxing king of
Riverside City was crippled as well. Do you know about this?"
Abbott sighed.
"I know. He did it? Is he Jacob?" Glen was shocked.
"That's right."
"But Death Bell is definitely not your opponent, right?" Glen was still very angry. It was a shame in his
life.
"Death Bell is indeed no match for me, but ever since Jacob appeared, I felt a great sense of danger.
My instinct tells me that if I attack him, I will end up no better than Death Bell. If I offend him, we may
both die."
Until now, Abbott still had some lingering fear in his heart.
Facing Jacob was like facing a demon, as if he could take his life at any time. It was precisely because
of this that Abbott did not dare to act rashly.
He even had a respectful and humble attitude towards the young man, and condescendingly
addressed him as "sir".
"Is he that powerful?" Glen had never seen Abbott so afraid of another person.
"Not powerful, but terrifying. He's young, but his strength is so unfathomable. Anyone believing that
he's just an ordinary son-in-law will be in danger."
"I will immediately report this to the patriarch. We must not offend him. Young Master, you were tricked
and used as a pawn. Fortunately, he appeared in time before you did anything to that girl from the
Harris family. Otherwise..."
Thinking about it, Abbott was scared.
If it wasn't for Jacob's early appearance and Glen's reasonableness, the consequences would be
unpredictable!
...
...
"Master, what should we do to her?"
Grizzly Bear looked at Michelle, who was trembling from fear, and asked Jacob for instructions.
"Do as you wish."
Jacob's voice was cold and heartless.
"Don't ... don't kill me. I'll tell you everything you want to know!"
Michelle looked at the muscular Grizzly Bear in horror with her body trembling uncontrollably.
"Apart from telling me that you took the money from the Bell family and were instructed by the Bell
family to match Glen with Hayley and set a trap for her, what else can you tell me?"
Jacob didn't even look at her and directly walked towards Hayley who was lying on the sofa.
"You, you know all of these?"
Michelle did not expect that her biggest secret would be exposed in an instant.
"We want to know more, but you can't give us an answer. Since you have accepted money for this kind
of thing, you should also think about the price you will pay!"
"I, hate, betrayal!"
Grizzly Bear shivered at this sentence.
He swore to himself that he would never betray his master in this life.
Then, he walked over, took Michelle like grabbing a chick and then walked out.
...
...
Riverside City, the Bell family.
"Young miss, I just received the news that the plan has failed."
After receiving a phone call, the butler said to the woman who was reading a document.
"Is Glen not interested in Hayley, or did Abbott not attack Jacob?"
The woman put down the document, raised her head and asked.
"Young miss is right. Abbott did not attack Jacob, but instead, he watched Glen slap himself ten times."
"Interesting. I intended to test Jacob's strength through Abbott, but I didn't expect that he actually didn't
dare to make a move. It seems that Jacob is even more powerful than I imagined. From the looks of it,
even Wolf is probably no match for him."
The woman showed interest on her face.
"Should we send Leopard?" The butler asked.
As a wealthy family in Riverside City, the Bell family had many experts. Above Death Bell was Wolf,
above Wolf was Leopard, above Leopard were Tiger, Lion, and Azure Dragon. Everyone relied on
individual strength to win a prestigious reputation.
"No, we don't know much about him. Don't act so recklessly. Continue to test him!"
"Watch Galip and Sharif closely. Tell them not to offend Jacob. If he is strong enough and can be used
by us, then Bell family's strength can be improved. If he can't be used by us, they will have a chance to
take revenge in the future..."
The woman bit her red lips, looking forward to it.
