Chapter 32
“I joined the army at fourteen, made the field division
at seventeen, and was awarded the rank of junior
lieutenant at twenty!” hissed Keegan. “Now, there are
many officers under my command! I’m not some
small–time gangster! I’m a real, gun–wielding soldier
who has killed before!”
Keegan’s loud voice and imposing aura terrified
everyone.
Having said that, the scorn returned to Keegan’s face
as he looked at Emmanuel. “Now, do you dare display
such arrogance before me?”
Everyone assumed that Emmanuel was going to be
quaking in his boots. However, nobody expected this
gynecologist to look contemptuously at Keegan and
retort, “Do you think it’s an honor to have killed before?”
These words made Milani, Chase, and everyone else
very anxious.
After all, if a man said that he had killed before, he
wasn’t fooling around. This was not a game of
Werewolves!
Is Emmanuel truly not afraid of being killed?
Milani had changed her opinion of Emmanuel after
seeing the way he behaved tonight. For one to be this
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtarrogant, he is definitely a genius. However, I think he
won’t live for long!
There were already many people paying attention to
the commotion, but after the two exchanged barbs
tit–for–tat, more and more people gathered around
them.
Lexi had also never imagined Ms. Mackenzie’s husband
to be so plucky.
No wonder I heard rumors that he’d managed to
impress someone like Mr. Webber! However, he didn’t
hesitate to pick a fight with Keegan to protect the
woman behind him. I wonder what their relationship is.
If Ms. Mackenzie finds out about this, she’s going to be
so angry!
Right now, Keegan was extremely livid.
Keegan was a well–known figure among the upper
echelons of Yeringham and had a reputation for a hot
temper and behaving impulsively. There had been
many young heirs of these families who had gotten
into conflicts with Keegan, only to be defeated by his
fists.
If even such rich and powerful people were afraid to
take revenge on Keegan, what gave this poor nobody
the audacity to pick a fight with Keegan?
The whole situation was preposterous.
Keegan wanted to pull out the gun from his waist in a
fit of rage.
“Keegan Doyle!” yelled Roselynn.
When Roselynn saw what was about to unfurl, she
hurriedly tried to put a stop to this. “I’m not your
girlfriend or your woman! Why do you care who I’m
speaking to? I don’t want to go elsewhere with you
either!”
Keegan was already angry and paid Roselynn no
mind. As such, he continued to draw his gun.
Emmanuel quickly shook off Keegan’s hand and
pushed him away, putting some distance between
them.
Just as things were about to get heated, another voice
was heard entering the fray. “What’s the meaning of
this? Who dares cause a ruckus at the Quillen family’s
banquet?”
As soon as those words were spoken, an old man in a
black suit walked in quickly with the staff stationed
on–site.
The onlookers looked more and more excited.
“I never expected Mr. Smith to come over personally.
This is going to be such a treat!”
“The Quillen family is the number one family in
Yeringham. Mrs. Quillen was also promoted to deputy
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmayor! If the two of them dare to make trouble at her
banquet, nobody is going to let things slide.”
A group of women immediately began to gossip.
Milani immediately leaned over and snorted derisively.
“It’s best to drive out this gynecologist. An intrusion to
this banquet by the likes of him serves only to cheapen
the atmosphere!”
When Keegan saw Adam, he immediately lowered his
hand and tried to take control of the situation. “Mr.
Smith, I am Keegan Doyle of the Doyle family. I
assumed that tonight was meant to be an elegant
affair. I never expected such unruly people to barge in.
It’s really disappointing!”
Adam was taken aback.
The Doyle family was also quite powerful in Yeringham.
Keegan’s mother was an official figure, so Adam dared
not offend the Doyle family so easily. Humbly, Adam
replied, “I’m truly sorry about this, Mr. Doyle. If someone
managed to sneak in, it’s definitely negligence on our
part. Please allow me to investigate this.”
After this, Adam turned to face Emmanuel with an icy
look. “Sir, please show me your invitation!”
Roselynn immediately became nervous and retorted,
“Why do you want Emmanuel to show you an invitation
just because of one accusation from Keegan? He’s not
the organizer!”
