The few attendants who were standing next to Hayden all grew infuriated by Nathan's attitude.
How dare this brat, who just showed up here out of nowhere, act so impudently in front of Mayor Lainson's junior?
The attendants had rage scribbled all over their faces.
They wanted to teach Nathan a lesson when Hayden held them back. The latter smiled. "Let's not deal with him just yet. I still want to leave a good impression on Kylie."
Hayden had intended to access Nathan as a person.
He knew the people in Talmage held some sort of fear for Nathan. Whenever he was around, they hang their heads low, and the volume of their voices would drop to almost zero whenever they spoke in his presence.
It was the first time Hayden had met someone who was so straight-forward for not having any regard for him.
How refreshing!
Hayden chuckled with a hint of disdain in his tone, "Hehe! He's quite a tough nut to crack, eh? The tougher, the better. I simply adore breaking tough nuts like you. Let's see how it goes!"
Hayden left with his attendants as soon as he had finished talking.
As they walked out, a few of the attendants asked Hayden curiously, "Why didn't you allow us to teach him a lesson? He was being so disrespectful just now!"
Hayden beamed, "My childhood friend is marrying someone today. I didn't want to ruin my mood over that small matter just now. Plus, I didn't want to leave a bad impression on Kylie too."
"Moreover, it's always better to torment him from the inside. A beating won't do anything to him. I want him to his ego and his spirit to be trampled on! He has to be humiliated," He added.
The attendants giggled. "Sir, you have come up with something to make a show out of him?"
Hayden replied gleefully, "Kylie is the bridesmaid, and I am the best man. You are familiar with the wedding custom of pestering the bridesmaid, aren't you? I will make sure to eat her up and show everyone how Hayden Lainson can get things done when he is serious!"
The attendants all had perverted grins on their faces. "Oh my, I can't wait for the big show later!”
"Even more, pestering the bride is a common wedding custom we have here. Kylie can't say no to it! As for that little rascal Nathan Cross... he will just have to sit and enjoy the show sir will put on with his girl! Hahaha!"
Hayden was still grinning as he cackled, "After I'm done with Kylie, and after I've demolished Nathan's ego, we will get someone to beat open his limbs. He needs to be taught that I am not a force to be reckoned with!"
