Chapter 68 - Disgusting

On Cole’s side, only one chopstick was left from the pair of chopsticks lying there.

This was Cole’s doing.

But no one had seen how Cole did it.

Jayden’s breathing quickened, and his soul almost left his body. At this moment, he could even smell death.

There was no joy or sadness on Steve’s face, but his slightly adjusted sitting posture betrayed the uneasiness in his heart.

He had already been wondering if Cole had set up a scheme to kidnap Chirs Hayes and Charles Yeager the previous day. Now it seemed…

Moreover, since Cole had such a strong cultivation level, Steven became even more certain that last night had been a trap set up by Cole.

Xavier gradually became solemn. He realized that he had underestimated Cole!

Just this hidden weapon technique was definitely not something that could be trained in a day or two.

Moreover, although Xavier could not determine Cole’s technique, he could still feel Cole’s true energy…

Cole was a Postnatal-realm second-grade martial artist.

He had the strength of a Postnatal-realm second-grade martial artist at such a young age!

Xavier’s face darkened.

With such cultivation and powerful martial arts, how could he get captured alive by the Yeager and the Hayes families?!

“Uncle, please help me add another chopstick.”

Cole smiled.

“Okay.” Hugh walked to the side and took down the cutlery.

As Hugh turned around, Jayden finally came back to his senses. He was furious. “Kid, are you trying to kill someone?”

The bodyguards of the Hayes family stood up and looked at Cole gloomily.

“Kill?”

Cole looked at Jayden. “If I wanted to kill you, do you think you could hide just now?”

Jayden’s expression was ugly. “What are you trying to say?”

“I’m not trying to say anything.”

Cole shook his head. “I just want to say that you can’t even withstand my attack. What right do you have to talk to me?

“Weakling, just listen obediently at the side.”

Cole laughed disdainfully.

Since the Hayes family wanted to humiliate him, Cole did not mind humiliating them even more.

Jayden was furious.

His teeth were about to break.

This was contempt!

Utter contempt!

“Kid, you’re courting death!”

Jayden roared.

However, Cole’s next move immediately stopped him.

“Thank you, Uncle!”

Cole used his fingers to pick up the chopstick that Hugh handed him and stared at Jayden with a faint smile.

Humiliation!

Jayden had never felt so humiliated!

Cole stopped him with just one move.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Jayden really wanted to say, “Who the f*ck are you scaring?”

But he didn’t dare.

That was because the burning pain on his face and the motionless chopsticks on the wall behind him made him shudder.

“Alright, continue.”

At this moment, Xavier came out to speak.

He was still digesting the news that Cole had such a strong cultivation, so he had let Cole threaten Jayden.

Only now did he realize that he was a peacemaker.

“Okay.”

Cole nodded and looked at Steve. “Alright, let’s continue.”

Steve’s face darkened. “Apologize to my uncle first.”

“Apologize?”

Cole smiled. “Why should I?”

“Among the six families, seniority is extremely important. You’re arrogant. Don’t you have to apologize?” Steve sneered.

“That’s it?”

Cole was stunned. He turned to look at the frightened Jayden. “Brother Jayden…”

Cara could not help but laugh.

“What did you call me, kid?”

Jayden’s face darkened.

“Jayden. Aren’t you called Jayden?” Cole looked at him in surprise.

Jayden gritted his teeth. “Don’t go overboard.”

After being humiliated by a brat, he had been spoken to as a person of the same generation as him?

Cole was stuffing sh*t into Jayden’s mouth with every word he said.

“Could it be that you’re two generations older than Steve?” Cole was surprised again.

Unable to take it anymore, Jayden was about to flare up.

This was not how it was calculated at all.

At this moment, Steve stopped Jayden and shook his head. “Uncle, there’s no need.”

Jayden’s anger was about to erupt from his throat, but Steve’s hand suppressed him.

He was so angry that he almost had a brain hemorrhage.

Steve felt a little embarrassed.

Based on Cole’s performance the previous day, Steve had thought that Cole was not good with words.

But today, it seemed like that was not the case.

He wanted Cole to apologize to Jayden and use his seniority to teach him a lesson, but he had been looked down on.

Why was he apologizing?

Forget it!

“Looks like Brother Jayden doesn’t need me to apologize.”

Cole smiled. “Then let’s talk about Simone Owens and Chris Hayes.”

Seeing that he had finally gotten to the main topic, Xavier could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

These two groups of people had been talking nonsense ever since they entered this place.

If not for the fact that he was old and was good at maintaining his character, Xavier would have flown into a rage.

“No way!”

Steve immediately shook his head at Cole’s words. “Chris Hayes is my big brother. Simone Owens is my family’s consecrator. She’s also a senior I respect. It’s impossible.”

“I haven’t even finished. Why are you in such a hurry?”

Cole smiled.

“Let’s change it to something else.”

Steve did not answer Cole. He did not intend to let Cole lead him by the nose. “How about this, Uncle? I heard that you used to work in the fitness industry. The Hayes family happens to have a few good gyms.

“These gyms are all yours. If you’re the boss, you don’t have to be kicked out of the industry. What do you think?

“By the way, I heard that you’re still living in an apartment in a neighborhood. My family happens to have a street there, and I can give it to you. What do you think?

“Also, I heard that you’re still taking the subway. Although our family doesn’t have the money to buy the subway, we have the money to buy a car. Ten million, take your pick. What do you think?

“Lastly, when you go out with Auntie Williams, you naturally have to wear a set of decent clothes. I know that you’re rather thrifty, Uncle, but you can’t be as down and out as a university student who has just graduated. How about this: I’ll give you a million-yuan shopping card from our family’s biggest mall as a bonus.

“All this in exchange for my brother’s life. Uncle Stone, what do you think?”

Although Steve was respectful, everything he said was to cause trouble for Cole.

Every single one of them despised Cole.

Not only did they despise Cole, but they also disgusted Cara.

Hearing this, Cole smiled. “Not bad. It’s very tempting.”

Steve smiled.

Cole continued, “Your young master is indeed only worth this much. If we were to kidnap you, your brother might not have paid so much.”

Steve’s expression turned ugly.

Cara did not say anything.

She did not want to negotiate in the first place. It was fine if she could make Cole call out the other parties’ actions.

If not for Cole wanting to fight to the death, she would not have come to this negotiation today.

When Xavier heard the two sides arguing non-stop, his expression gradually turned ugly.

He finally understood that these people had no chance of negotiating successfully.

Thinking of this, he could not be bothered to waste time.

Xavier said, “Everyone…”
