Chapter 112 You Are Not Welcome Here
Leo put his hands over his face, a red flush spreading down to his neck. He glanced at the plate that had been set aside and immediately roared, “Don’t you want to f**king live in Nebula City? Touch me, and I’ll destroy you along with the entire Jennings family!”
Alex turned a deaf ear, as this kind of threat was no different than a child’s tantrum to him.
“Let’s take one thing at a time, Hale.” He violently grabbed Leo’s collar, as if lifting a chick. “You want to ruin me? Bring it on! But for now, accept your defeat.”
With that said, he dragged Leo over and held him down on the ground, prying open his mouth with one hand while grabbing a pastry and stuffing it in his mouth with the other.
Kate goggled at Alex in total disbelief. His behavior today had completely caught her off guard and changed her perspective of him.
All the classmates present stood transfixed with shock.
I can’t believe how domineering Alex is!
Isn’t he just a live–in son–in–law of the Jennings family?
The nerve of him to insult the future heir of the Hale family!
Alex is stepping way over the line!
Leo struggled to free himself, but he was no match for Alex. The former was just about to open his mouth. to speak when Alex stuffed another pastry in his mouth.
“Alex, that’s enough! Stop it now!” Dylan yelled, running out just then. He lost control of his emotions. when he saw that monstrous scene.
Upon seeing Dylan, Alex thought for a while before sparing Leo.
After all, today was the grand opening of Dylan’s new store. It wouldn’t be nice of him to make a scene.
“To be a man is to be loyal, Hale. Since it’s Dylan’s new store’s grand opening today, I’ll let you off the hook for now. But if you ever think that 1, Alex Jefferson, am an easy target, then I dare you to come at me! I swear you won’t be so lucky next time,” Alex said placidly before letting go of his hand.
Leo’s face had turned a shade of purple. He quickly grabbed a bottle of drink and gulped it down, only to end up coughing violently.
It took Leo a while to catch his breath. He had really thought that he was going to die from that choke earlier.
How dare he do such a thing to me?
“You… You…”
There was soon no trace of elegance and poise left in Leo.
His suit was crumpled, his hair was disheveled, his face was contorted, his stomach was bulging, and he was close to eating himself to death.

He gnashed his teeth in bitter hatred, shooting daggers at Alex. He wanted to spit something harsh, but upon seeing Alex’s eyes that were staring at him like those of a ferocious beast, he held his tongue.
