Chapter 3
“Kid, I heard you were a homeless wanderer before, right?” Beck Kamen sneered, opening his wallet to reveal stacks of red banknotes. “Here, there’s about ten thousand bucks. I have tens of thousands more in my bank account. If you kneel down here and call me ‘dad’, I’ll give you all of it. What do you say?”
“Oh no, calling someone ‘Dad’ is just too boring.” Beck Carmen teased, winking his eyes. “Just say that my wife, Vicky Norton, is a lustful bitch, and that I, Walter William, am a worthless bastard. I’ll give you one million—if you do it!”
“Do you want to die?” Walter William stopped in his tracks and stared at him intently.
“Grass?” Beck Kamen sneered. He took two steps forward in one and stood right next to him. “Who the hell do you think you are acting like that for? Don’t you even know who you are? You worthless piece of shit!”
As he spoke, he grabbed a stack of bills and flung them at Walter William with all his might.
In the next moment, it was going to land on Walter William. But Beck Carmen froze completely.
Though they were merely ordinary eyes, he felt a terrifying sense of dread in his heart. His entire body seemed to be frozen, unable to move at all.
Walter William gently took the banknotes from his hand, then flung them right in Beck Carmen’s face!
“If I were you, I wouldn’t bother provoking people I shouldn’t provoke!”
With that, Walter William left the restroom.
“Sis…”
Upon touching it with the hand, a sharp pain was felt where the red mark appeared on the face.
“Walter William! How dare you, a good-for-nothing, rebel against me!?”
Beck Kamen had a twisted expression on his face. He quickly splashed cold water on his face before following after them.
If not for the inappropriate circumstances, just based on those few words from Beck Kamen, Walter William would have gotten rid of him right away!
Strolling leisurely, I returned to the private room. In just a short while, Beck Carmen also arrived.
“Carmen is back! Come here quickly. Hey? What’s wrong with your face?”
Mrs. Norton enthusiastically pulled out a chair for Beck Carmen, but noticed something was wrong at a glance.
“Did that bastard Walter William hit you!?” she screamed in a high-pitched voice.
“No, no. It seems William has some misunderstandings about me. After all, it was I who stole his love away from him…”
“Walter William, you worthless piece of trash! How dare you do that to Beck Carmen…”
Dong dong dong!
Just then, the door to the private room was knocked loudly.
Before I could even open it, the door was pushed open from the outside. A guy wearing expensive brand-name clothes, who seemed like someone best not to mess with, walked in.
Two burly men stood on either side of the private room’s door, following behind him.
“Sure enough, it’s you! I recognized your back just now.”
“Young Master Carroll!” Beck Kamen’s expression changed instantly. Ignoring the pain, she hurried over to him, her face full of flattery. “What a coincidence, Young Master Carroll!”
“This is Vicky Norton and her parents… You know, I really like her.”
“Oh? A blind date has arrived?” Jill Carroll laughed even harder. She even reached out and rubbed Beck Carmen’s head playfully. “Well, I’ve already met your ‘sister-in-law’ ahead of time. Here, this is my contribution to you in advance.”
Taking out a few bright red banknotes from his pocket, he handed them to Beck Carmen without even counting them.
“Carol, you’re joking, aren’t you? How could I possibly accept your money?” Beck Carmen was startled. Instead, she took out a wad of cash from her own pocket and handed it to her, smiling broadly. “It’s me who should give you money.”
“Nice eye!” Jill Carroll said with a smile as she took it.
Who on earth is this man!
Chad Norton’s heart skipped a beat.
That pharmaceutical factory in Glasgow belongs to the Carmen family! When Beck Carmen saw this man, he treated him as if he were a king or something!
As they talked, Jill Carroll frowned and glanced at Walter William. His gaze made her feel uncomfortable.
“You’re sick.”
“Walter William! You’re insane!”
“Do you even know who Lord Carroll is? The Carroll family of Glasgow… Even a single hair from one of their members could crush you, a bastard like you, countless times over!”
The Glasgow Carroll family!?
“You wretched fool! Who gave you the right to act so rudely! Walter William, immediately kneel down and apologize to Master Carol!”
With a snap, Chad Norton slapped the table, veins bulging on his neck.
“Young Master Carroll! This kid has nothing to do with our Norton family!” Chad Norton rushed forward to Gil Carroll, looking panicked. “He’s just a scoundrel and a worthless wretch! Don’t worry, I’ll throw him out right now!”
After saying that, he kicked out in a fit of anger.
Stumbling, Chad Norton’s face twisted in pain. “Damn you, you little brat! You actually put steel plates in your pants!”
Walter William didn’t even look at him, walking calmly around Jill Carroll.
Suddenly, Walter William stopped beside him, and the room fell silent once again.
Gently bringing his mouth to Jill Carroll’s ear, he whispered, “Evil spirits enter the body.”
“What did you say!”
The moment those four characters were spoken, it was like a thunderclap ringing in my ears!
Jill Carroll’s face turned pale with horror, and she couldn’t help but take a step back.
“Young master!”
The two bodyguards at the entrance wore stern expressions and prepared to charge forward.
“No need!”
Gil Carroll stared at Walter William in shock. “How… how do you know this?”
“I not only know, but I can also help you. But…”
Walter William chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.
“But what!?”
Giving him a gentle tap on the shoulder, Walter William turned around with a smile on his lips.
“Stop right there! Walter William! If I ask you something, answer me in plain language! It seems like you don’t want to see tomorrow’s sun at all!”
“Shut up!” Jill Carroll suddenly yelled, causing Chad Norton to stop speaking mid-sentence.
“You’re Walter William, right? Please, you must help me!”
Gil Carroll rushed forward to Walter William and bowed without hesitation.
Everyone’s eyelids twitched violently, especially Beck Carmen, who had no idea what was happening.
Clearly just a good-for-nothing son-in-law, how come just a few words from him made the mighty Gil Carroll act so subservient!?
It’s fake, definitely fake!
“I have money! I have a ton of money! As long as you help me, I’ll give you anything you want!”
This… this can’t be possible!
He knew all too well the status of the Carroll family in Glasgow. To put it bluntly, they were like the rulers of Glasgow—the absolute masters of the city!
This Gil Carroll is practically like a prince!
Have you ever seen the crown prince bend down to a beggar on the roadside!?
What kind of damned luck does that good-for-nothing Walter William have?!
Chad Norton could only feel the world spinning around him. The toad he had once looked down on had now managed to get close to Jill Carroll!?
