At that moment, Hunter looked pleased. He turned to Tristan and said excitedly, "I'm right here, Tristan!"
Tristan coldly approached him. Then, without saying anything, he immediately slapped him in the face. "How humiliating, you useless piece of trash!"
Hunter covered his face and didn't dare to utter a word. He didn't even dare to show how aggrieved he felt. Clearly, he was terrified of Tristan.
After Tristan slapped Hunter, he noticed Nolan right away, who was calmly sitting on the couch. He scoffed and said, "So, it was you who has beaten up my men and humiliated us, huh?"
Nolan nodded. "Well, if he says so. It's getting late, and I'm busy. So, let's end this as soon as possible so that I can head back home and sleep."
After he said that, he stood up and pointed at Hunter. "We can settle this one way or the other. First, we can get him to kneel on the glass shards here right now until they are all tainted with his blood. After that, we can break an arm and a leg on him.
"Then, we can call it a day, and I'll stop pursuing the matter. I can also beat up the rest of you first before going with the first option. Alright, time to make a choice."
Everyone was stunned when they heard that. They thought that Nolan had gotten drunk. After all, things were different than earlier.
Tristan was there with more than dozens of men and all kinds of weapons. Anyone who wasn't dumb would know that it was time to be humble. However, Nolan was being more arrogant than earlier, and they couldn't understand why.
Tristan's men started yelling back at him arrogantly, but Tristan just frowned slightly. After all, he had been in the underworld for a long time, and he was actually smart, unlike Hunter and the rest.
