Chapter 040 Confidence
Everyone thought Ethan had been scared, and no one could have expected that Ethan would suddenly start attacking Phil at this moment!
Even Phil himself was caught off guard, and in fact, even if he had been prepared, it would have been useless.
Ethan pressed Phil's entire face onto the ground with a loud crash, causing blood and flesh to scatter, and breaking his nasal bone.
Upon witnessing this, Ella couldn't help but pause.
Even Samuel and Even were shocked and dumbfounded.
They had experienced Mr. Chaucer's power and now Ethan dared to directly confront Phil. Wasn't he afraid of being killed by Mr. Chaucer later?
The secretary was also horrified, feeling that Ethan was doomed this time and would die here!
"You have some nerve!" Mr. Chaucer angrily rebuked.
To have Ethan attack Phil in his presence was to disrespect him and slap him in the face. How could he tolerate such a thing?
Tom also stood up and coldly said, "Deputy Minister, you are truly audacious to lay a hand on my cousin! Today, you won't leave this restaurant!"
Ethan had an indifferent expression on his face as he lazily kicked away the almost unconscious Phil. He said casually, "Initially, I didn't want to get involved in the land dispute between the Tiger Group and the Aim Group because I thought Mr. Chaucer's skills were mediocre, but your cousin is really foolish, repeatedly coming at me. Challenge me. This piece of land should stay peacefully in the hands of the Aim Group!"
Mr. Chaucer couldn't help but laugh. "Such arrogance! I don't know where Miss Anderson found this audacious young man, someone who dares to dismiss the disciple of Tiger Gang's manager."
"What does a Tiger Gang manager count for? Call your master here, and even he would have to kneel before me and let me slap him," Ethan sneered.
Yesterday, Tiger Gang's special appointed manager, Paddy, voluntarily knelt down to apologize to Ethan because of Jasmine's offense. He knew very well the terrifying consequences when the two bosses got angry.
After hearing this, Ella couldn't help but shout in a deep voice, "Deputy Minister, this is the grudge between the Aim Group and the Tiger Group. Don't involve Tiger Gang!"
The struggle between the Aim Group and the Tiger Group has not completely surfaced yet, especially on the side of the Aim Group, who is intentionally avoiding any mention of Tiger Gang's support.
Now, with Ethan challenging in front of so many people, saying that even the Tiger Gang manager has to kneel before him, she couldn't sit still.
When it came to the struggle for capital, Ella naturally had no fear. She could handle anyone who came, but when it involved Tiger Gang, it wouldn't be that simple!
Even spoke in a deep voice, "Miss Anderson, Ethan speaks without filter, it's best to dismiss him early. If you let him continue to be so arrogant, the Aim Group will eventually suffer from his harm!"
Samuel, who was standing beside them, also agreed deeply. Ethan didn't have much talent, but his words were truly arrogant.
Even the empathetic secretary felt that Ethan was being unreasonable at this moment, simply trying too hard to impress and not thinking about the consequences!
"How audacious!" Mr. Chaucer roared in anger when he heard Ethan's disrespectful words, his face turning red.
Tom spoke coldly, "Miss Anderson, this contest was meant to assess the Aim Group's capability to develop New Age Mansion. But you have someone like him, a loudmouthed scoundrel in your company, who even dares to insult Tiger Gang's manager."
"If Mr. Chaucer accidentally kills him later, your company will have to bear that responsibility. If anyone's to blame, it can only be because he was too arrogant!"
Ethan had already rolled up his sleeves and took a few steps forward, reaching the spacious area of the hall, and said, "Come on, don't just blabber here with your mouth, let's get started."
Seeing Ethan actually stepping forward, ready to fight, when Mr. Chaucer made a move, the faces of several Aim Group members changed.
"If the Deputy Minister wants to dig his own grave, then we have no need to stop him!" Even said in a low voice.
Ella shook her head disappointedly at Ethan and said, "Deputy Minister, words have consequences. Since you've taken a stand, you must bear the responsibility yourself."
Ethan turned his head and smiled, saying, "If I leave this piece of land with the Aim Group, will I have a say in its development?"
Ella was momentarily stunned, then frowned and nodded, though she felt there was little hope.
Mr. Chaucer was too powerful; Samuel couldn't even withstand a single move against him, and Even was defeated after about ten rounds.
How could Ethan, someone so young and just a prison guard, have the ability to defeat Even?
"You dare to hit me in front of the Tiger Group!" At this moment, Phil, who was half-dead, regained some consciousness and murmured as he spoke.
Ethan glanced at him diagonally and coldly said, "If you continue to show off in front of me, I'll kill you directly."
The signs of the pent-up anger he had accumulated today were starting to show, and his words were becoming less polite.
Since seeing Diana at the Sydney prison gate, he had been holding on to a grudge. Then, coming to Boston, not being trusted by Bernice and the others was another grievance, and when Norton appeared, whatever he said, the Smith family believed, which created more frustration for him.
"Come, let me teach you how to fight Mount!" Ethan beckoned to Mr. Chaucer.
"Such arrogance. Mr. Chaucer's master is the Tiger Gang's manager, with combat skills that rival the best in the world, and he's teaching him how to fight Mount?"
"Mr. Chaucer's master is the famous grand master of the Tiger Gang, personally recruited by the minister, and his combat skills are unparalleled."
"A disciple trained by someone like that must surely be an expert in Mount. Yet he still dares to say that he wants to teach others how to fight Mount? It's really laughable. Does he think he can surpass experienced professionals?"
After hearing these words, Mr. Chaucer laughed furiously and sneered, "So arrogant! I have been practicing Mount for eighteen years, mastering sixty-four variations and various techniques to perfection. I can handle any weapon effortlessly. Apart from my master, no one has ever dared to utter such arrogant words in front of me!"
Phil gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Chaucer, we must kill him!"
Tom also said in a deep voice, "Mr. Chaucer, this beast insulted the Tiger Gang's manager. His crimes are grave, and he must not be allowed to live. Let's eliminate him when the time comes!"
"Good!" Mr. Chaucer replied with a grim smile.
Chaucer readily agreed and took two steps into the center of the hall, facing Ethan.
"I hope you can hold on a little longer and not end this game too quickly because I want to slowly torture you to death!" Mr. Chaucer said coldly.
Ethan, however, seemed uninterested and raised his hand, urging Mr. Chaucer to make a move quickly.
"This guy is facing an expert like Mr. Chaucer but acts disdainful, seeking his own doom!" Even sneered and said to Ella.
Samuel nodded by the side and stood loosely, full of flaws. Mr. Chaucer was a Mount expert with excellent body movements, and a single attempt at Side Mount could instantly make Ethan pay a price.
