With a faint smile, Nathan gazed at Wilfred while saying in an impassive tone, ”Mr. Lieberman, do you like the two gifts from me?”
Finally, Wilfred regained his composure.
Only then he realized that his plan to kidnap Nathan's daughter had failed. His hope to make Queenie marry his son was dashed as well.
Anger spiked in his chest, and his face was livid as he bawled, ’’Nathan, how dare you! You killed my son and my subordinates! Do you really think that you can trample on my family as you please? Now kneel before me!”
Right after these words left Wilfred's lips, Greyson, the two Reapers, as well as the countless subordinates and relatives of the Lieberman family roared at Nathan, “Kneel!”
There were about a few thousands of them in total.
Such condemnations from thousands of people could easily crush a person.
Nonetheless, Nathan didn't bat an eyelid in the face of their scowls and insults. A smile crossed his nonchalant face as he said, “Your son has no regard for others' lives, so he deserves to die, and the same goes for your subordinates who tried to kidnap my family. You're in no position to ask me to kneel before you.”
His words shocked the crowd.
After all, Wilfred used to be one of the Great Cabinet Members, and he was one step away from becoming the president before being thrown into prison.
Yet, Nathan thumbed his nose at Wilfred. All of them couldn't believe how arrogant he was.
Wilfred was trembling with fury.
A twisted smile broke across his face. “Nathan, you're so insolent. You have the audacity to come into my territory and say such ridiculous words after killing my son and subordinates. Don't you have any respect for the Lieberman family?”
Nathan answered in a flat tone, “You're right. Your family is nothing in my eyes.”
