Everyone in the room greeted Zack in a respectful manner, including the group of young men, who also stood up
as they
greeted him.
Elena also
gave up attacking Gerald at this time.
“What’s
happening? What’s everyone up to now?”
Zack had an
extremely strong and majestic aura around him and at this time, he glanced at
Elena and the rest of
the people who
were crowded at the corner.
“Fortunately,
Mr. Crawford isn’t here yet! Otherwise, what would he think of all of you?”
Zack yelled at the
group of young
men before he glared at the young man dressed in white.
The boy
dressed in white felt very wronged at this time because he did not do anything
at all. However, he was
also a part of
the group.
Warren quickly
changed the topic at this time. “Mr. Lyle, didn’t you say that Mr. Crawford was
about to
arrive?”
Zack replied
in a cold manner, “Well, I can’t seem to get in touch with Mr. Crawford now. I
think that he has
already turned off his cell phone.”
“Would Mr.
Crawford decide not to come after all?”
At this time,
the crowd of people had a sad expression on their faces. This was their best
opportunity to meet
and present
themselves to Gerald Crawford.
Sure enough,
it was not as simple as they thought it would be. Gerald was simply not someone
that would show up
just because
they invited him to the banquet.
At this time,
Zack seemed to be able to read their minds and he knew exactly what they were
thinking.
After that, he
said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Crawford isn’t the person you think he is. He’s a very
peace-loving and
amicable
person and if he’s told me he’ll be here, then he’ll definitely be here today!”
After he was
done speaking, Zack turned around to look for a young man before he said,
“Flynn, find a way to
contact Mr.
Crawford as soon as possible! We have to look for him as fast as we can!”
Flynn quickly
stepped forward before he nodded respectfully at Zack.
“Uncle Zack,
we’re supposed to host a banquet for Mr. Crawford today but it seems as though
someone had tried
to crash our
banquet. How should we deal with him?”
Elena looked at Zack in a coquettish manner at this time.
“Oh? Is that
so? What does my niece want to do with that man?”
Zack smiled
before he looked at Elena.
Elena was
really very beautiful, lively, and pleasant. In fact, Zack had always doted on
her because he really
admired her
strong sense of justice.
“Hmph! I
suggest that we hand him over to Brother Flynn and bring him over to Brother
Flynn’s martial arts
studio to beat
him up and teach him a lesson!”
Flynn could
not help but smile when he heard Elena’s words.
Zack glanced
at the figure of the young man who was lying on the ground because he had been
beaten beyond
recognition by
the group of girls.
After that, he
gave a wry smile before he said, “Alright then. Flynn, just do as Elena
suggested then…but
first, you
have to go and look for Mr. Crawford!”
“Um…Mr. Lyle,
you don’t have to look for me. I’m here!”
Gerald only
intervened at this time.
Boom!
As soon as
Zack heard Gerald’s voice, his body started trembling uncontrollably.
Then, he
looked at the young
man who was lying on the ground with tousled hair and a
messed up appearance.
Zack’s eyes
widened in shock as he looked at Gerald. At this time, the crowd of people
could only exchange
glances with
one another, unable to comprehend what was happening.
“Hmph! You
nasty guy! You still dare to talk now? Who did you say you are?” Elena asked in
a contemptuous tone
as she glared
at Gerald.
“Hahaha!
You’re really good at acting! You’re even pretending to be Mr. Crawford now,
aren’t you?”
The group of
girls were also very annoyed at this time.
After Zack
regained his senses, he turned a deaf ear to what the young girls had said, as
he was really
confused at
this time. They were supposed to give Gerald a welcome party today but he was
beaten up instead?
Zack walked up
to Gerald before he shouted in a respectful manner, “Mr. Crawford! I am so
sorry for what
happened!”
Zack was
bowing before Gerald at a ninety degree angle!
“What?”
The crowd of
people were all shocked at this time. Elena and the other young
ladies were
also very confused.
Was this person…really the boss and owner of Mayberry
Commercial Street? Was he really the one who was backing
Zack up all
along? This man here…was Gerald Crawford?
Warren had
already turned pale and he quickly said, “Mr. Crawford, I’m really happy to
meet you today.”
After that, he
bowed in front of Gerald in a humble manner.
He felt that
his life was over. His daughter had just beaten Gerald up so badly!
“Nice to meet
you, Mr. Crawford!”
The rest of
the crowd also bowed as they greeted Gerald.
However, Elena
and her friends were still standing straight and they did not bow in front of
Gerald at all.
At this time,
Gerald looked at Elena with a playful look on his face as he said, “So, young
lady, how should we
