Semua Bab When Life Takes A Turn: Bab 391 - Bab 400

Shane Larson was not just any random Joe—he was Jordan’s only son. Within the family, his position was just one rank below Zidane. Nevertheless, Zayn had slapped this all-important figure just like that.Was this Zayn’s hubris showing? It must have been, right?Raymond watched it happen in a nonplussed daze. He was actually desensitized to these mind-blowing developments, he discovered, because he was hardly stunned by any of it anymore.He thought Zayn was at his most arrogant when he taught Chester Turner a lesson the night before, but that could not hold a candle to the degree of bald-faced conceit he displayed this time.To Raymond, Shane had always been an example to look up to, a larger-than-life titan of sorts. Conversely, Zayn flouted that status with a loud and resounding wallop, right in front of the rest of the family—right when both Jordan and Zidane were watching!Perhaps conceit was an inadequate description. The right word had to be hubris; Zayn was so grandiosely s

Gritting his teeth, Shane watched the tides turn in Zayn’s favor as he lay on the floor, his eyes reddening. Hot lashes of shame and regret struck him, yet he could do nothing but wallow in a hell of his own making.Why did he have to be so easily baited into a trap?At that moment, everyone looked at Zayn with even more respect.Zayn smiled. “Aww, you’re exaggerating, Uncle. The Larsons control this city, right? A little recording from me can’t possibly indict Shane, am I right?”It became clear to Jordan as to what the young man had been doing: Zayn had come to the memorial service for the sole purpose of revenge. He had never wanted to return to the family at all. To think he believed it would be easy to con him into doing their bidding before it all began! Jordan really shot himself in the foot here.Tired of pretense, the patriarch expressed his true emotions with a dark, unamused tone. “I’ll concede that I’ve underestimated you completely, Zayn. We lost, quite thoroughly. No

Zidane accepted the challenge. His expression exuded confidence and pride. He had tormented Zayn ferociously in front of his grandfather Connor’s grave before. It had only been two short weeks since that incident. He refused to believe that Zayn was so capable that he managed to undergo some brutal training in half a month and significantly elevated his skills. Zayn had managed to take advantage of him because of his own carelessness. It filled him with fury and regret, so he did not expect Zayn would actually yield his power once again. They were going to return to their mutual starting point and fight one-on-one. It could not be better. It was true that Zayn’s requests were rather excessive. He wanted everyone to surrender to him. The whole Larson family would be put under his heel if they were to abide by his request and suffer rather severe consequences. All members of the family—young and old—would not be able to hold up their heads in the presence of Zayn anymore from then

Yes, Zidane had lost the fight. Moreover, he was thoroughly defeated and did not even have the strength to hit back. It took ten full seconds for the numerous members of the Larson family to accept the truth. Having to face reality put a cold chill into their hearts, and it felt like ice was coursing through their veins. They soon recalled the price of Zidane’s loss!At that moment, many of them panicked. They were scared out of their minds and even felt the urge to flee. Ever since the Larson family was established, nothing of this sort had ever happened. Jordan was left utterly dumbstruck and bewildered. He felt as if his heart had twisted savagely and he was suffocating from the pain. Everything happening before him was so absurd, so unreal! It was just like a dream. Yes, it was supposed to be the Larsons’ memorial service. Every member who was even a little capable was there, yet they were being bossed around by Zayn, a man who had come alone!If news of this incident

Zayn’s expression seemed largely unchanged. He appeared to be very calm, yet he was actually feeling extremely agitated, and his heart was overwhelmed with emotion!It had been four years. He went from being a well-regarded young heir to the Larsons to a man who married and lived with his wife’s family, the Carters. He went from being on top of the world to the depths of hell in a single night!No one knew how tormented he was at his core, how much agony he was in, and how much he longed for vengeance. Now, he had finally achieved his goal. The people who bullied and humiliated him were bowing to him. Zayn took a deep breath and stated, “You may now tell me who is the murderer that hurt Grandpa back then.” His eyes were as sharp as ever. No one answered him. They merely lowered their heads. “Why is no one speaking up?” Zayn’s voice was cold as ice. He gave Jordan a kick and said, “My dear uncle, why don’t you just tell me?”Jordan gritted his teeth in pain after being ki
