Shawn was infuriated. He clenched his fists tightly as though he was ready to punch Wilbur in the face.
His reputation took a huge hit today. Being born with a silver spoon, he has never faced such humiliation.
âStop asking for trouble. If you continue being stubborn, I wonât be responsible for whatever happens to you,â he said harshly.
Shawn was at his limit.
If it were not for the presence of so many prominent people, he would have told his bodyguards to throw Wilbur out a long time ago.
Wilbur chuckled and looked at Shawn, provoking him further, âGo on, try it. Did you think Iâll play along with your games?â
He could not intervene when it came to Fabian, but he did not need to be polite toward ShawTI
Shawn was seething
âFirst, I was humiliated by Faye, and now this guy dares to walk all over me too! Does he think Iâm a pushover?â
He looked at Wilbur and asked coldly, âDo you not treasure yo
Wilburâs expression turned solemn.
your life?â
However, they were in front of so many people, and many prominent figures were present. He could not believe Shawn had the audacity to speak like that.
âI never succumb to threats, Shawn. Iâll pretend I didnât hear anything if you take back what you said. Otherwise, be prepared to face the consequences,â he said coldly.
Pendleton quickly exchanged a glance with Fergus.
The situation had escalated to a point where they had to intervene. They needed to put a stop to it immediately.
The impact on the project would have to be dealt with later.
Fergus hurriedly stepped on stage. He interrupted Shawn, who was about to speak and said into the microphone, âLadies and gentlemen, thatâs all for todayâs cocktail party. Please proceed to leave the premises.â
The attendees nodded and began to leave.
That was the only option. The eventâs impact on Pride Corp and the Electronics Industrial Park was significant. There would likely be troublesome times ahead.
Moreover, people did not think much of Wilbur. Since he provoked Shawn in public, his survival in the future was uncertain.
Everyone shook their heads because they felt sorry for Wilbur.
Shawn ordered coldly, âSecurity, throw this guy out of here for disrupting the cocktail party. Let the special agents handle him for now and Iâll settle the score with him later.â
Shawn was enraged. He could not bear the humiliation. He was ready to resort to violence even if Pendleton and Fergus were
there.
The attendees who were about to leave were startled and stopped in their tracks.
The situation was escalating rapidly.
Pendleton and Fergus were also taken aback. Shawn was going in for a full confrontation
They looked at each other and thought it was going to be a troublesome situ
The Electronics Industrial Park project would be affected if they stopped Shawn
However, they could not allow Shawn to act so outrageously because of their identities.
2/2
His bodyguards headed toward Wilbur
The crowd watched with anticipation as they gossiped.
âAt least Shawn has a reason to disrupt the cocktail party.â
âWilbur will be taken away if Pendleton and Fergus have nothing to say,â
âHowever, this is just a minor concern. The real issue is the personal revenge from Shawn. That will be the most serious consequence, and Wilbur should be fearing for his life.â
Pendleton and Fergus whispered to each other, discussing their options. In the end, they chose to stand by and observe for the time being.
They needed to let Shawn vent his anger first or their project could be jeopardized.
