Actually, all the thugs in the yard had noticed Carissa and Lachlan arguing about something. But she was just a woman, and they couldn't be bothered to get involved.
But when Omar showed up and started chatting with Lachlan, things changed. Although it would be easy for Lachlan to deal with him, he couldn't personally handle such small fry given his status.
So Jeremy quickly ran out to help deal with the trouble so that Lachlan wouldn't have to do it himself.
And at this moment, after recognizing Jeremy, Omar saw Carissa mocking him and suddenly gave her a big slap!
"You bitch! Shut your damn mouth!"
Carissa widened her eyes and covered her face as she screamed at Omar.
"Omar, what are you doing? Why did you hit me?"
Omar glared fiercely at this woman, "Are you blind? This is Jeremy! My brother Black Dog eats with him too! If you dare insult Jeremy again, are you tired of living?"
"Shut up!!"
He glared desperately at Carissa while signaling her!
Then he put on a smiley face and nodded obsequiously as he approached Jeremy while pulling out a cigarette, "Jeremy, I'm Omar from Black Dog's gang. We had dinner together before. Do you remember?"
"This woman doesn't know any better. Please don't argue with such an insignificant person."
Jeremy frowned slightly as he looked at Omar but didn't respond directly to him. Instead, he respectfully asked Lachlan, "Mr. Willis, did he come looking for trouble? You don't have to take care of it yourself. I can handle it for you."
Who was this guy named Omar anyway? He didn't even remember who he was.
Seeing how Jeremy reacted like that made Omar open his mouth wide in confusion.
Carissa blinked several times too but wore an expression full of excitement on her face.
"... Jeremy... he is..." Omar pointed towards Lachlan while asking suspiciously.
"He is my boss's brother-in-law. What's going on here? Did you disrespect Mr. Willis earlier?" Jeremy asked coldly after hearing that question.
Hearing this made Omar shudder in fear before waving his hand frantically, "N-No…nope! Just thought that Mr. Willis looked familiar so I wanted make friends with him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Carissa forward, dragging her in front of Lachlan, "Oh yeah! Mr. Willis, do you like Carissa, right? From now on, my girlfriend... oh no, ex-girlfriend will become your woman!"
"Oh my god!
What the hell was going on?
Lachlan was Jeremy's boss's brother-in-law? This was too crazy!
Even if he only hung out in the town below Edoland, he'd heard of Mason's name.
And Carissa called him a "toad", but he was actually Mason's brother-in-law??
Omar was almost scared to death when he heard this!
Carissa was also trembling with fear, but then she approached Lachlan with what she thought was her most seductive smile.
