Zeke said, “You know, I don't even wanna make a move against you myself lest I get my hands dirty. Someone's
going to deal with you later.”
Martin snickered. “Don't you think you're overestimating yourself, Zeke? I may not be a big shot, but I have a deep-
rooted history in this land. You want to deal with me without making a move yourself? I'm afraid that'll only happen
when pigs start to fly.”
The other suppliers broke into laughter.
When he finished his words, the lighting in the hall dimmed.
“Someone's at the door,” someone said.
“Who's that?”
Everyone turned to look at the door.
Immediately, a burly figure came into view. He had blocked off most of the sunlight, causing the hall to darken.
It did not take long for someone to recognize the newcomer. “It's Mr. Tavian!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTrue enough, the newcomer was the current head of Redwood Capital, the Tavvy Zeke had been talking about, and
the Mr. Tavian the crowd referred to.
As soon as Tavian's arrival was announced, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax.
Everyone knew who Tavian was.
When Tavian was rising as one of the young talents in the industry, he could wipe out the entire underworld with
ruthless means, winning battles after battles by using few men.
After conquering the underworld, Tavian did not use their powers to cause trouble and become a ruler. Instead, he
dismissed all of them.
He also created many job opportunities for those involved in the underworld to make sure they had an income.
In fact, it was all thanks to Tavian that almost half of the bosses in the hall could achieve their current success.
In their eyes, Tavian was like a god, a savior sent from the heavens.
Hence, they feared and respected him.
Seeing Tavian, they quickly rushed forward and surrounded him.
“Mr. Tavian, sorry for our lack of hospitality.”
“Please have a seat, Mr. Tavian. You haven't eaten, haven't you? We'll set up a few tables to treat you to a meal
later.”
“May I know what the purpose of your visit is today? Perhaps you can let us know, and we'll settle it for you.”
Tavian was feeling utterly annoyed.
Oh, my goodness. You fools are ignoring Zeke, but you're being so hospitable and respectful toward me. Are you
guys trying to get me killed? How can I receive such treatments when Zeke is right in front of me?
Tavian yelled, “Get lost, all of you!”
His words left the crowd stunned, and they hurriedly distanced themselves from him.
They could not understand why Tavian was so fierce toward them.
Were we not hospitable enough?
Tavian trotted toward Zeke, and his subsequent action made the people's jaws drop.
He slowly bent over and greeted, “I hope I'm not too late, Zeke.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZeke nodded. “You're not.”
Everyone was mind blown.
What on earth? What is happening? Mr. Tavian should be someone high and mighty, and his status is unmovable.
Why is he bowing before him so humbly? He's treating him with so much respect. Even more so than how we treat
Mr. Tavian. Who on earth is this Zeke? How is he making Mr. Tavian treat him like that?
Some cowardly ones fainted from fear, while those who were quick-witted wanted to sneak away. Unfortunately,
they were stopped by the security guards.
In the end, they had no choice but to take out some money to bribe the security guards.
Much to their surprise, the security guard shouted, “Such shameless people! How dare you guys bribe me?”
His booming voice immediately attracted everyone's attention, including Zeke's and Tavian's.
Zeke's and Tavian's gazes alone were so terrifying that someone in the crowd collapsed to the ground, vomiting bile
and twitching.
