Nathan looked at Yancy disapprovingly. "As for you, you should reflect on your actions! You shouldn't go crazy the moment you meet a woman! Penny is my wife and I will protect her, so there's no need for you."
Nathan's words came as a shock to the Tonkins.
Hank looked at him indignantly and growled, "I'm not talking to you! I'm talking to Penn and her family!"
Prudence chimed in as well. "That's right! You need to keep quiet! Leah, you should just throw him out! Our Yancy is a hundred times better than him! He's a much better match for Penn!"
Benson and Leah were not going to give in so easily. They tried their best to pacify the Tonkins while standing their ground firmly.
However, the Tonkins were relentless. "Leah, don't you remember how much you suffered after you married that good-for-nothing Benson! Your daughter deserves someone like Yancy. He's so much better than Nathan Cross!"
With that, the Smiths and Tonkins got into a heated argument.
Yancy sneered at Nathan and preened, "You don't even have a marriage certificate with Ms. Smith, do you? I have the right to court her, and if you're insistent, then maybe we can compete as equals."
A hint of anger flashed across Nathan's eyes.Is this guy dumb?
Suddenly, the door to the room was kicked open roughly.
A group of men in suits rushed in without warning.
They parted to form an aisle upon entering, and soon after, a stout man with bulging muscles walked in.
That man had tiger-like eyes, stubble and a dominating aura that could make anyone fear fortheir lives.
He was no other than one of Carl's sworn brothers, Fabian.
Hank flew into a rage. "Who are you? Who gave you permission to barge in here? I know the boss here personally! Aren't you scared of getting thrown out?”
