Ashlee Pratt quickly ran in front of Jaiden Lee and angrily pointed at him, cursing, âYou think you can just beat someone up and leave? In your dreams!â
Jaidenâs face turned livid. He tried to suppress his anger and said, âI donât want to get entangled with you, so itâs best to stay away from me.â
âWho wants to get entangled with you?â Ashlee folded her arms and sneered.
âI tell you, since youâve hit Davis Brady, nobodyâs leaving here today!â Ashlee sounded rather smug.
Just as Ashlee had said, seven or eight burly men walked towards them from not too far away.
These burly men were all fighters at the Underground Boxing Ring, each with impressive fighting abilities.
Jaiden clenched his teeth and angrily pointed at Ashlee, cursing, âYou shameless woman! Itâs you who did something wrong, and now youâre picking a fight with me too?â
âSpare me the nonsense!â Ashlee huffed. âYou have to face the consequences for your actions!â
Jaiden looked at the cold woman in front of him, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
The scene was just like when Ethan Smith was driven out of his Family.
âAshlee Pratt.â Jaiden took a deep breath.
With some pleading in his tone, he said, âFor the sake of our once shared feelings, could you let my friends go first?â
âLet your friends go?â Ashlee sneered.
âAlright, then kneel down and beg me. Maybe Iâll have mercy and let your friends leave.â Ashlee toyed with her skirt, her tone somewhat playful.
Jaiden was taken aback. He stared intently at Ashlee, wishing he could smack her twice across the face.
But in the end, Jaiden gave a bitter smile.
He slowly said, âFine, I agree.â
After saying that, Jaiden bent both knees and was about to kneel on the ground.
At that moment, a hand grabbed hold of his arm.
Looking up, he saw Ethan Smith staring at him, shaking his head. âNot long ago, I was like you, thinking that pleading would let others forgive me. But later, I discovered that wasnât the case.â
âThe weaker you are, the more youâll be bullied. Your pleas will become a joke in the eyes of others.â Ethan said solemnly.
Jaiden looked up at Ethan, deeply moved for a moment.
âWho the fuck do you think you are? Itâs none of your business!â Ashlee charged over angrily.
Before Ashlee could finish her sentence, Ethan slapped her across the face.
The slap sent Ashlee spinning 360 degrees in place and she eventually crashed onto the floor.
It was the first time Ethan had hit a woman. Though he didnât use his full strength, Ashleeâs face still swelled up.
âAnnoying thing.â Ethan coldly looked at Ashlee.
The surrounding boxers immediately walked towards Ethan, surrounding him in the middle, and coldly said, âKid, it seems like you really donât want to leave this place.â
Edward Green quickly stepped forward and whispered, âMr. Smith, let me deal with them for you.â
âYo, someone dares to make trouble here?â
At that moment, a voice suddenly came from the crowd.
Turning around, they saw a man in a black shirt slowly walking towards them.
The man was about 1.8 meters tall and seemed thin, but had a very steady stride, clearly a martial artist.
His appearance immediately caused a stir.
âMr. Gibson, youâre here.â The boxers parted way, looking at him respectfully.
The man named Mr. Gibson walked straight up to Edward and said indifferently, âSounds like youâre pretty good at fighting, arenât you?â
Edward squinted and replied, âFinally, an Inner Strength Expert. Itâs a pity that youâre only a Fifth-rank Inner Strength, not worth mentioning.â
âHuh? You know about Inner Strength?â Mr. Gibson said with some surprise.
Edward disregarded Mr. Gibson and whispered in Ethanâs ear, âHeâs just a
Fifth-rank Inner Strength, I can easily handle him.â
Ethan nodded and said, âThen hurry up and donât waste any more time.â
âYes, Mr. Smith.â Edward nodded.
At that moment, Ashlee suddenly rushed over.
She ran to Mr. Gibsonâs side and angrily said, âMr. Gibson, they assaulted
Davis! You must teach them a lesson!â
Mr. Gibson glanced at Ashlee, looking somewhat annoyed. âYouâre nothing but trouble! Youâre paying for Davisâs medical costs.â
Although Ashlee was unwilling, she dared not refuse and quickly nodded. âI understand, Mr. Gibson.â
Afterwards, Ashlee retreated to the side.
Then, Edward quickly walked up to Mr. Gibson, clenched his fists, and said,
âLetâs start the fight. Our sir here doesnât want to delay too long.â
Mr. Gibson glanced at Edward and sneered. âI donât want to fight with you, a mere bodyguard. â
After saying this, Mr. Gibson walked straight towards Ethan.
He looked down at Ethan and asked, âThis matter started because of you, right? Was it you who ordered your subordinate to hurt Davis?â
Ethan looked at Mr. Gibson and couldnât help but frown. âCan you just cut the bullshit?â
Mr. Gibsonâs eyes narrowed, and he sneered, âSince itâs your doing, you should take responsibility! Of course, Iâm not unreasonable either. Weâll settle this in the ring.â
Ethan was stunned, scratching his head. âYou want to fight me?â
Mr. Gibson sneered, âWhat, you donât dare?â
Ethan looked at Mr.. Gibson with some amusement and asked, âYouâre sure you want to fight me?â
