Chapter 73 The Man With An Old Device
After apologizing to Christopher, Malcolm respectfully lowered his head in front of the man, which completely blew everyone’s minds.
No one at the scene expected that Malcolm would act so humbly.
At that moment, the place got so quiet that even the breathing sound stopped.
Pierce and the others were utterly shocked. What the heck is going on? That’s the legendary Malcolm Kirk, the man who has Golden Peace in the palm of his hand! Did he just apologize to an ordinary young man?
Even though nobody absent would believe what had just happened, the fact was that Malcolm did apologize to Christopher.
“How? How is this possible?” The crowd found the situation difficult to process.
“What are you doing, Dad? Why would you apologize to a nobody?” Pierce completely lost his cool. He could not figure out why Malcolm would do something like that. Is there anyone more powerful than Dad in Golden Peace? No! Even if we’re talking about the entire Jadeborough, only a handful of people deserve such respect from Dad. On top of that, he slapped me! It doesn’t make any sense at all!
Malcolm could not believe that his son still failed to see the severity of the situation. “If I hear one more word from you, I’ll break your legs! It seems that I’ve spoiled you.”
Diane had made it clear to Malcolm that Christopher was the true boss of Centurion Corporation and that she was the only reason that he could make a name for himself in just a few years.
To put it bluntly, Diane could make Malcolm irrelevant in Jadeborough whenever she pleased.
Hence, Malcolm was relieved when he saw that Christopher was unharmed. Otherwise, he would be in trouble. We should consider ourselves lucky that my son was the one who got slapped.
Malcolm would not complain even if he was asked to break his son’s legs. After all, he was nothing before the great Centurion Corporation.
At that point, Pierce finally realized that something was not right. Although the man was a trust fund baby, he was not stupid. Malcolm had made it abundantly clear that Christopher was no ordinary person. He couldn’t even begin to imagine how terrifying Christopher must be if he could command respect from his father.
“D*mn it! What have I done?” Pierce muttered fearfully.
Those who hoped to see Malcolm teach Christopher a lesson immediately shivered, especially Amos and Lulu. The two felt as though they had fallen through the ice. If even Malcolm has to apologize to the man, who are we to go against him?
“We’re doomed! Doomed!” Amos and Lulu were convinced they were done for.
Not only did Lulu offend Christopher, but she also hit Erisa. She could see nothing but darkness in her future. When he offered one million, I just thought he was one of those people who got rich from relocation compensation.
Suddenly, Christopher’s old domestic phone rang.
At that point, nobody dared to make fun of his device anymore. Christopher checked the display and realized it was Amanda calling. “Yes, Ms. Clark?” He answered the phone call.
“I’ve arrived at Sky Dragon Bar, Mr. Yaeger. Are you okay?” inquired Amanda as soon as she heard Christopher’s voice.
