If he continued to resist, it’s very likely his entire arm would be ruined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Give me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed twisted with one hand, his right foot stepping directly on Carl’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Call your men.

Even if I die, I’ll take him down with me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carl’s face pressed against the ground, yet he still roared loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he was truly enraged, furious beyond measure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since he had followed Cesar Pendleton, he had never been subjected to such humiliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he had some status, to be stepped on in front of his own employees…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where could he put his face?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pain was unbearable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the streets, face is more important than life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the employees looked at each other, not a single one daring to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Carl died, they would surely be branded with infamy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, in Five-river Province, there wouldn’t be a place for them to stay; this was a taboo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if Cesar Pendleton started investigating, who could escape?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They simply stood there deadlocked, thinking that if Carl lost his life, they could rush forward to avenge him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A smart man doesn’t suffer in front of his eyes, don’t let a moment of stubbornness ruin yourself!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An employee shouted loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By doing so, he was also giving his boss a way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, how could Carl admit his wrongs in front of so many employees?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he apologize?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Face is more important than life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if you lose your life, what good is face?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to swallow your pride and apologize quickly, to suffer less.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this is Five-river Province, could the other party even get out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wouldn’t be able to leave Five-river Province by half a step!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Impossible! Even if I die today, I’ll take someone down with me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carl’s attitude was extremely stubborn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just because he had been insulted, but more so because he couldn’t swallow the indignity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet not a single one of the employees dared to advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s the matter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, inside the Water Pearl Hotel, Allen came out with a group of people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was both Miguel Abbott’s bodyguard and the security for the Water Pearl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a strict sense, Allen’s status was entirely superior to Carl’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, one was the boss’s personal staff, while the other was just an employee of the boss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also dealt with each other often, and were very familiar with each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Allen, you’ve arrived?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An employee, seeing Allen come out, quickly ran over to greet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m Big Dog, I work under Carl.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, nodding and bowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the presence of someone like Allen, he didn’t dare show the slightest disrespect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh! I remember you. What happened? Where’s Carl?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Allen looked around but didn’t see Carl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why so many people? You’re not fucking planning to trash my venue, are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said jokingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Five-river Province, anyone who dares to smash Water Pearl’s place is probably sick of living.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Octavius’s capability, no one would dare to do such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Allen, Carl is over there…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The employee said with some difficulty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was too humiliating to have one’s own boss stepped on under someone’s foot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no helping it; this was Water Pearl’s, a property of Octavius. Having Allen intervene at this moment was still considered a prudent move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn! This…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Allen was shocked to see Carl being stepped on the ground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what, the other party was one of Cesar Pendleton’s men. To humiliate him in such a derogatory manner was a bit too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he looked up and saw who was stepping on the person, his heart clenched even more!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Davenport, you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swallowed his saliva, somewhat at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A person whom even Octavius wouldn’t dare to offend, would he dare utter a word of dissent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s nothing much, someone was being disobedient, and I’m just teaching him a lesson,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Octavius, don’t listen to his nonsense! This son of a bitch hit Carl’s brother first and then made Carl kneel down to apologize!” Big Dog roared angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Allen’s got his back, he regained his confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bullshit!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Allen slapped the employee, sending him spitting out blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was inherently strong, and the slap came without warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Allen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Dog laid on the ground, totally unable to comprehend what had just happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t said anything wrong. The situation was exactly as he described.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why did Allen strike him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all acquaintances, and Carl’s relationship with Allen was not too bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Allen truly not going to give Carl and Cesar Pendleton that much respect?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he dared not speak another word, for he was merely an employee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the other, he was Octavius’s personal bodyguard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were not on the same level; not even in the same league.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no comparison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, even Carl lying on the ground was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling embarrassed to hear Allen approaching, being trampled underfoot was surely humiliating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since Allen had come forward, the issue would be resolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This incident at Water Pearl’s entrance, if word got out, it wouldn’t just be a loss of face for him, but Allen would be disgraced as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought that Allen would step in and take care of Julius Reed, and then he could seek his revenge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even how to beat up Julius Reed, he had already figured out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the turn of events was completely unexpected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Allen slapped his employee Big Dog flying without any forewarning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was stunned, including Allen’s own bodyguards who were behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Allen, what kind of play are you acting out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An employee risked being hit and stepped forward to help Big Dog up. “Brother Davenport, how do you want to handle this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Allen didn’t bother with these thugs, instead he looked straight at Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Davenport?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the question on everyone’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who was Brother Davenport?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Allen was calling him Brother, he surely couldn’t just be a nobody.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just him; Simeon Kensington and the others were also puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shouldn’t the two groups of thugs be on the same side? Why were they fighting as soon as they came out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And who was Brother Davenport?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elize, what’s his name?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Julius Reed, of course!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Elize Yarrow finished speaking, she then realized who Allen was referring\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, what a formidable scumbag!” She suddenly burst into laughter..\u003C\u002Fp>",1288,"2026-06-06T17:04:44.710Z",1,"novelbin.me","9457de93c16b5294854b9d8c47a75e709ec8ff172ac9e364f46058e2d96d1cda","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-149","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-147",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
