Dauntless God Of War novel Chapter 238

On top of that, both Craig and James had gained status with the backing of the mysterious figure.

It was only natural that they curried favor with Benson, to whom the mysterious figure gave recognition.

The Xenoses believed luck was the only reason Harold could go from rags to riches and that the best proof for their assumption was how the stocks and futures Benson bought with James' help had skyrocketed.

James and Benson had shaken the entire financial industry in Dellmoor the day before when they cashed out hundreds of millions in a single day.

At that point, Benson had already become the second most well-known investor in the city.

To the Xenoses, Harold was nothing more than a kept man.

They were not grateful to him even though he had used his connections to resolve their crisis because they believed that he still owed Brittany.

“Brittany, this heartless b*stard threw your five-year relationship with him as if it was nothing! He betrayed you the moment he chose to marry Isabella for the few hundred thousand betrothal gift, so why are you still defending him?” Gordon asked his sister displeasedly.

Harold's face darkened after he heard Gordon's harsh words.

Gordon was used to seeing Harold grovel to him and his family, so he got even more upset when he noticed the latter giving him an unpleasant look.

“What's up with that look in your eye? Don't think for a second that you've become an elite just because of your b*tch of a wife! You're just a kept man!” Gordon spat disrespectfully in front of Harold.

Furious that Gordon repeatedly called Isabella a b*tch, Harold lifted his hand and was ready to slap him to kingdom come.

Seeing that Harold was about to hit her brother, Brittany immediately stepped between the men. “Don't you dare, Harold!” shouted the woman while glaring at Harold.

With Brittany in his way, Harold had no choice but to swallow his anger.

“What's wrong? Are you afraid to hit me? As I said, you're nothing but a kept man! I thought all that wealth would've at least made you a little tougher, but you're still just a useless coward!” taunted Gordon, who was feeling even smugger after his sister stepped up to protect him.

At that moment, apart from the staff members of the sales department, there were many other customers in the building.

It did not take long before a circle of people began to form around Harold and the Xenoses.

After listening to the conversation between Gordon and Harold, the onlookers were convinced that Harold had abandoned the five-year relationship he had with Brittany to marry a rich woman.

Even though Gordon's words were harsh, the onlookers all gave Harold a disgusted look because they thought Gordon had a point.

It was enough to make Harold feel uneasy.

“You have three minutes to disappear from my sight, or else...” threatened Harold, for he did not want Isabella to see what was happening.

“Would you look at that? The man's grown a pair after marrying a rich woman! If you want us to leave, all you have to do is pay us a breakup fee.”

The Xenoses did not take Harold's threat seriously at all.

Mandy even nodded approvingly when she saw that her son not only remembered most of the life lessons she had taught him but also applied them expertly.

On the other hand, the onlookers were stunned when they heard Gordon's words.
