Chapter79 I also want to be low-key
Inside the building, Louis was watching the situation at the entrance through the privacy glass. His smile gradually froze upon seeing Ethan's smile.
One of his henchmen commented, “Seems like he has discovered something!”
“Shut up! You can't even handle such a small matter. What kind of useless people did you find? Utterly worthless!” Louis's face turned even more unpleasant as he coldly snorted.
The group of people at the door didn’t expect Ethan to have the courage to make a move against that young man. Moreover, he slapped and knocked the man to the ground so decisively.
Everyone was surprised, including Sarah who stood nearby and never expected Ethan to solve problems in such an extreme and straightforward manner.
The security guard who had previously stopped Ethan yelled, “How dare you hurt someone in Palace Club! Capture him and then we'll see!”
On the other hand, the man Ethan had slapped now regained his senses and signaled to his companions nearby.
Several security guards immediately rushed toward Ethan.
“I hope someone will compensate for these injuries!” Ethan sighed helplessly. Before the security guards could reach him, he kicked each of them away with such speed they couldn’t even see, let alone resist. After falling to the ground, they started to cry in pain as not a single one of them could get up!
“Damn, who is he? How dare he even fight against Palace Club's people?”
“When the captain of the security team comes out later, he probably won't be able to find a place to cry!”
“Are you talking about the one lying outside? I didn't think he was that impressive.”
“True. Moreover, isn’t the captain a national Sanda champion? That man is terrifying!”
The bystanders fervently discussed, intimidated by Ethan’s strength and involuntarily retreating.
“Ah, our savior is here!” Ethan suddenly laughed. Just as he said that, a group of people suddenly emerged from Palace Club. Who else would be leading them if not Louis?
“It's actually Louis, QU Group’s heir! I can't believe he came over as well!”
“Is that guy crazy? He caused trouble in front of Palace Club, and now he thinks Louis came here to pick him up?”
“What's Louis’s connection with this place?”
“Don't you know? Rumor has it that he owns ten percent of Palace Club's shares and is considered one of the owners here!”
The onlookers began discussing fervently once again.
However, after Louis took another look at the fallen security guards, he suddenly shouted angrily, “Have you all gone mad? How dare you offend my distinguished guest! Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Wilson, you useless bunch!”
Everyone thought they had misheard. Nobody expected Ethan to start a fight in front of Palace Club, but instead of getting into trouble, Louis was asking everyone to apologize to him!
“We apologize, Mr. Wilson!” After being helped up, those lying on the ground apologized to Ethan simultaneously.
Only then did look at Ethan with a mix of awe and confusion.
On the other hand, Ethan's eyes changed!
“Who is he? Even Louis is so polite and accommodating to him.”
“Haven't you seen him before? It seems that Seattle has never heard of someone so powerful before!”
“I remember now; this guy is Ethan Wilson!”
“Ethan? Which Ethan?”
“Haven't you seen the news? The guy who is Cloud Group’s ex-chairman in Novaria, Ethan Wilson!”
At this moment, Sarah looked at Ethan with a puzzled expression and asked softly, “Are you planning to become famous in Seattle like this?”
“I also wanted to keep a low profile, but the other party didn’t let me do so,” Ethan replied with a wry smile, surprised that someone could actually recognize him.
“Mr. Wilson, Miss Harris, I apologize for the poor hospitality,” Louis approached them, smiling and greeting as if he didn't care about what happened just now.
Sarah furrowed her brow and asked, “You're Louis?”
“I didn't expect Miss Harris to know me too!” he laughed and then invited them to enter Palace Club.
Ethan and Sarah didn't reveal that they were aware of his little trick, wanting to see why he invited them here today.
Unlike the ordinary entrance, as they stepped onto Palace Club’s second floor, the decoration changed dramatically as the place resembled a magnificent palace.
“No wonder this place is called Palace Club. It seems you really enjoy being around here every day,” Ethan commented, looking at Louis with a half-smile.
“You’re joking, Mr. Wilson. This place isn't mine; I’m just a part of it! However, there are plenty of things to enjoy here. No matter what Mr. Wilson is interested in, you can have fun here. Do you want me to show you around?” Louis laughed and gave Ethan a suggestive look, hinting at some undisclosed intentions.
Sarah immediately snorted and turned her head away, “Hmph!”
“Oh... I forgot about Miss Harris. My memory fails me sometimes. Well, let's sit down on the second floor first. I'll have my treasured Lafite brought to you right away!” Louis slapped his forehead and immediately led them into the second floor hall.
As they sat on the empty sofa, Louis instructed the staff to bring some wine.
Ethan straightforwardly asked, “We're not in a hurry to drink. You didn’t just invite us here today for drinking, right?”
“Of course not. I heard that the two of you arrived in Seattle, so I wanted to befriend you. Today, I’d like to thank Mr. Wilson and Miss Harris for coming!” Louis nodded subtly, politely remaking something that he himself couldn't believe.
Ethan stared at Louis meaningfully, “You’re really funny. We only arrived yesterday, but your invitation already came today. It seems you’re quite informed around Seattle, huh?”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Louis's face, but he quickly smiled and said, “I happened to have a friend who saw you two at the hotel today. I only found out by chance, and it wasn’t as incredible as Mr. Wilson made it sound!”
Ethan suddenly looked interested and asked apologetically, “Oh? Your friend actually knows me? I'm interested in meeting them. Would it be convenient?”
Hearing this, Louis almost choked on his own saliva and was silently annoyed that Ethan wasn’t playing by the rules.
Beside them, Sarah stifled her laughter. She didn’t expect Ethan to be so sarcastic. Wasn't he obviously making fun of Louis?
