Chapter 1104 Swift And Decisive Action
The expression on Zachary’s face instantly froze. He turned around, his eyes staring straight at Colton as the aura of a king emanated from him.
Colton felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his entire body covered in goosebumps. When he looked at Zachary, his eyes no longer held contempt or disdain, only deep-seated fear.
That feeling was as if the person in front of him could easily crush him with just a flick of a finger. How can someone who gives off such a feeling be an ordinary person? They are definitely someone I can’t afford to offend.
“S-Sorry… Please continue your browsing.” Colton couldn’t help but tremble. He was stuttering due to his
nervousness.
Zachary’s gaze didn’t leave Colton as if unsatisfied with the latter’s previous apology.
Without hesitation, Colton kneeled down immediately. Feeling as if it wasn’t enough, he kowtowed a few more times until his forehead was bruised before finally stopping.
Upon seeing this, Zachary slowly retracted the aura of a Grandmaster he had previously emitted. He then turned his head around and continued to choose clothes as if nothing had happened.
Even without practicing martial arts, Zachary had always been a person of high status. As the head of the Jefferson family in Lumenopolis, dealing with an ordinary person who looked down on him would only take a single glance.
Originally, Alex wanted to step in and resolve the matter himself. However, seeing his father handle it in that way, he couldn’t help but give his father a thumbs up. Indeed, Alex truly admired that aspect of his father.
He had been looked down upon many times in Nebula City before, but he had a reserved and patient personality. Hence, he wouldn’t bother arguing with people unless they went too far in offending him. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Upon realizing that the middle-aged man was no longer targeting him, Colton scurried away in panic, not daring to look back even once during his escape. I’ve worked in this shop for so many years and have seen all sorts of wealthy and high-ranking people. However, this is the first time I’ve encountered such a ruthless character. Even though I only stood there for a minute, I was almost scared out of my wits. Even if they did come to cause trouble and occupy the entire store instead of buying clothes, I still wouldn’t dare to say a word.
“Why did you come back so quickly, Mr. Johanson?” As Fanny said that, she glanced at the two ordinary- looking people not far away who were still looking at clothes. Then, she curiously asked, “Mr. Johanson, could it be that those two can really afford to buy them?”
Colton gave Fanny a disdainful look. He would have slapped her in the face long ago if it weren’t for her being a beautiful woman.
Annoyed, he said, “You almost got me killed! Next time you meet someone like this, don’t freaking call me, or I won’t even know how I die!”
As Colton picked up a cup and gulped down the water in one go, his panic finally began to subside.
On the other side, Zachary naturally wouldn’t care about what those minor characters were thinking. He picked out a few pieces of clothing that he liked and fit him well before happily paying for them.
“No need to rush. Let me first get a gift for my grandson. It’s my first time meeting him as a grandfather, so I should buy him a present” Zachary rushed into the mall to pick out a present for Stanley.
Alex couldn’t help but shake his head. It’s like my father has been injected with adrenaline and has an endless supply of energy.
After strolling with Zachary for quite a while, Alex was starting to feel a bit tired. Alex didn’t follow his father into the shopping mall. Instead, he found a quiet spot to sit down, planning to smoke a cigarette and relax for a bit.
As he exhaled a puff of smoke, an icy dagger pressed against his neck. A woman’s voice, alluring and captivating, whispered in his ear, but her words were chilling to the core. “Hand over your stuff, or I’ll kill you!”
