Chapter 038 True Strength
After being scolded by an irritated Ella, Ethan shrugged indifferently and didn't say anything.
Even gave him a cold glance. Did this guy feel that the pressure from the Tiger Group on the Aim Group was not enough? He's just speaking nonsense here!
"Go and bring Mr. Chaucer out," Tom said calmly.
Shortly after, a man walked out. He looked about thirty years old, around 1.8 meters tall, with bulging temples, sharp eagle-like eyes, and strong, sturdy hands with callused knuckles.
You can tell immediately that this person is an expert!
Phil smiled at Ethan and said, "This is a disciple of the Tiger Group's manager, Mr. Chaucer. If you have the guts, come and try!"
After seeing Mr. Chaucer, Ella couldn't help but be slightly surprised. This man exuded a strong sense of oppression!
Samuel, who had been holding his hands together, released them and his expression turned serious.
Even focused his attention on him as well. Obviously, Mr. Chaucer's appearance brought him considerable pressure!
Even was a former soldier from the Dragon Chamber, one of the elite combatants in the special forces. He had considerable skills, which is why he was appointed as the head of security for the Aim Group.
He had a keen sense of danger, and Mr. Chaucer's presence immediately made him sense a dangerous aura.
Ethan looked and couldn't help but lose some interest.
"What kind of expert did I think he was?" he muttered softly.
At Sydney Prison, his father used to extract confessions from international criminals, honing his skills to perfection.
After noticing Ethan's expression, everyone sneered.
"Clearly scared. Mr. Chaucer's imposing presence is too astonishing, making him unable to speak arrogantly anymore," Ella keenly observed, sighing inwardly.
"Samuel is probably no match for Mr. Chaucer, it's needless to say that Ethan, this useless person, is naturally afraid," Even thought to himself.
Phil smirked and said, "Do you still dare to be arrogant? How come you didn't even say a word when Mr. Chaucer appeared?"
Tom chuckled and said, "Ella, it seems that employees of the Aim Group only know how to talk tough but are cowardly when it comes to crucial moments."
Mr. Chaucer, who had just made his entrance, glanced at Ethan, then smiled at Tom, and said, "Mr. Brown, there is no need to say such things. After all, I am a disciple carefully cultivated by my master. This combat technique is not something an ordinary person can achieve. It is only natural for him to be intimidated by my aura. There's no need to boast about it."
Tom chuckled and said, "Mr. Chaucer truly has the demeanor of a champion!"
Ethan sneered, shook his head, and said, "I thought you guys could bring in some experts to entertain me, but this level is truly disappointing." As soon as he said this, the scene quieted for a moment before the Tiger Group burst into laughter.
"You're still being stubborn!" Phil exclaimed with amusement. "Ella must have gone crazy to bring you in! The Aim Group should just give up the land already. With such employees, forget about making profits from the development, just keeping the business from losing money is a blessing!"
Ella's face also sank; she coldly said, "Ethan, if you dare to talk nonsense again, then get out of my company!" Ethan shrugged and remained silent.
"Even your boss can't stand you! Honestly, if the Aim Group wins today, it's fine. But if they lose, you won't leave. We won't let you leave this restaurant until we smash your mouth!" Phil's attitude was very arrogant, especially after Mr. Chaucer showed up; he seemed to hate Ethan even more.
Tom reached out to Ella and said, "Ella, please let the security department of your company have a go against Mr. Chaucer!"
Phil added, "Ethan, weren't you being arrogant just now? Give it a try!"
Ethan sneered and, seeing Ella's hostile gaze, didn't bother to speak.
Even whispered, "Samuel, go and test this Mr. Chaucer's combat technique!"
Samuel nodded and walked directly in front of Mr. Chaucer, clasping his fists and saying, "Mr. Chaucer, please teach me! I am..."
"I don't want to know the name of a loser!" Mr. Chaucer rudely interrupted Samuel before he could introduce himself.
"You..." Samuel couldn't help but get furious upon hearing this. He could be considered an expert in the Aim Group, and yet he was humiliated by Mr. Chaucer in front of their own boss. He immediately became enraged.
Without saying another word, Samuel swiftly charged forward and unleashed the Wrestling technique known as the "Dynamite Blow"! Wrestling mainly focuses on joint attacks, and Samuel lifted both hands like a shield to protect his upper body while raising his knee, charging toward Mr. Chaucer's chest like a train.
"He allowed the opponent to disturb his mind with just a few words. There's no way he can win!" Ethan couldn't even be bothered to look, and these words slipped from his mouth.
Even raised an eyebrow fiercely and angrily said, "Can you shut up?!"
Ella also spoke in a low voice, "Mind your own words! I'm starting to doubt which side you're really on!"
The secretary added, "Vice Minister, can you please be quiet for a moment? Samuel is really powerful; he's considered a top expert in our company."
At this moment, Mr. Chaucer suddenly spread his feet apart and swiftly approached Samuel's knees, effortlessly shifting his left leg.
Mr. Chaucer's body spun like a top, moving away from Samuel's side and ending up on his right.
Samuel quickly extended one arm and fiercely swung it, aiming for Mr. Chaucer's temple.
However, at that moment, Mr. Chaucer swiftly blocked Samuel's attack, firmly holding his ground. He squatted down to avoid Samuel's whip-like strike, then clenched his fingers like a knife and fiercely jabbed Samuel's ribs!
There was a crisp sound, and Samuel screamed in pain, flipping over and falling to the ground, with blood spewing from his mouth.
The people from Tiger Group erupted in applause and cheers, one after another.
Mr. Chaucer waved his hand casually, saying, "Weak!"
Even's eyelids twitched repeatedly. Mr. Chaucer was an expert in Judo, particularly skilled in ‘Mount’, especially the ‘Side Mount’, which he executed flawlessly. He effortlessly evaded Samuel's attack and instantly struck at the weakest point of his defense!
With such combat skills, he had no certainty of victory. Sweat cascaded from his palms.
"This is the end when you hold nothing back," Ethan observed, shaking his head slightly.
Samuel was provoked by Mr. Chaucer's words and attacked recklessly, disregarding the consequences. His anger clouded his judgment, resulting in his excessive force and giving Mr. Chaucer an opening.
When professionals engage in combat, they usually test each other's abilities first, unless there's a huge disparity in strength. Who would go all out right from the start?
Ella's face darkened, she looked at Even and asked, "Minister, are you confident?"
"I can give it a try!" Even nodded, knowing that retreating at this point was out of the question.
However, Ethan shook his head and said, "Minister is not his match. Miss Anderson, it's better to find someone else."
