The Man's Decree novel Chapter 1245

Chapter 1245 A Liar

Thanks to the attack, Angelo was bleeding from his mouth and his nose. He quickly knelt to the ground and pleaded, “Please stop hitting me. I beg of you.”

Angelo never expected Peyton to not fear his father.

After all, he had been behaving brazenly in public just because his father was a general in the Department of Justice. At the same time, no one dared to mess with him.

When he saw Cecilia’s announcement, he decided to use the opportunity to take advantage of her.

To his surprise, a mere general of the Department of Justice was nothing in the eyes of a powerful sect.

Finally, Angelo was beaten to a pulp. Even so, Peyton did not kill the former. Though the position of a general in the Department of Justice was not powerful, it was a part of the government. Hence, Peyton decided to show some respect.

“Get lost. I would’ve killed you today if it wasn’t for your father!” Peyton roared.

Angelo dashed out of the palace. He was in no mood to have fun with pretty ladies anymore.

The entire exchange left Cecilia stomping her feet in anger. Never in her wildest dreams did she expect Angelo to be just acting cool.

If I knew his father was Horace, I never would’ve shown him such respect. Ugh! A mere general of the department of justice!

The thought of how Angelo flirted with her yesterday made her blood boil.

Now that Angelo had fled, Peyton glanced at Cecilia smugly. “Lady Jingle, that reinforcement of yours is such a joke. I can’t believe you even offered your body as a reward. Look at the current situation. Is anyone offering their help? It’s time you realize what’s happening and give in obediently. Crimson Palace will be mine in the future. With Divine Beast Sect as a backer, I’ll make Crimson Palace the second most powerful clan in the south.”

Peyton slowly made his way toward Cecilia with smugness written all over his face.

At the same time, Cecilia kept moving backward, looking utterly disgusted.

“You perverted animal. I’ll never let you take advantage of us, even if we die.” With that, Cecilia pulled out her sword, preparing to fight to the death.

The disciples of Crimson Palace were ready to do the same, too.
