Chapter 15

Marcus’s voice was like thunder resounding through the room. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! “Huh? Isn’t that the abandoned son from the Knight family?” “I heard that he raped someone three years ago, but he has been released!” “Is he here to cause trouble? This is going to be exciting!” Many guests recognized Marcus and were amazed. On the high platform, Lexie stared at Marcus with hatred in her eyes. “You punk! Who do you think you are? How dare you come here to cause trouble and say that I can’t hold the engagement party. Are you delusional?” Shaun laughed jokingly and said coldly, “Marcus, I know you just got out of prison, and you’re in a very bad state! But for the sake of our relationship, I won’t drive you away. You can take the leftovers after the party! Hahaha!” Their words were full of undisguised humiliation. “Hmph!” Marcus’ eyes were piercing and he sneered. “Shaun, don’t be so chill! I came here today to demand justice and expose your true face in front of everyone. “Three years ago, you secretly instigated Lexie to charge me with a groundless crime which resulted in my imprisonment. “After that, you used despicable means to take away Four Oceans Corporation founded by my father! “You two adulterous swine have done so many evil things and you are even worse than animals! Now, it’s time for retribution!” Marcus’s words were sonorous as he revealed what happened back then. ‘What?’ The guests present were all shocked. They did not expect that the seemingly personable Shaun was actually a despicable and shameless scum! At this moment, instead of being ashamed, Shaun became even more arrogant. “That’s right! Marcus, I used tricks to send you to prison, but even if you know this, what can you do to me without solid evidence? “This is the law of the jungle: only the fittest survive! Now, I am the CEO of Four Oceans Corporation, and you are just trash who has just been released from prison. You’re no different from a beggar on the side of the road. How will you fight me? “If you want justice, then ask the guests present. Who will speak up for you?” … As soon as Shaun said that, the scene was quiet, and everyone fell silent. What a joke! They did not know Marcus well, so why would they offend Shaun, who had already gotten onto the Lincoln family’s good side, for this kid? From everyone’s point of view, Marcus was attempting the impossible and humiliating himself by causing trouble today. “Marcus, it seems that no one wants to help you.” Shaun smirked. “I don’t need anyone’s help! Since I, Marcus Knight, dared to come, I’m sure I can deal with you myself, you scumbag!” Marcus was still stubborn, and he looked very domineering. “Tch!” Lexie glared at him angrily. “Are you still trying to be stubborn at this point? Shaun, stop talking nonsense with this kid and ruining our engagement further. Get someone to throw him out!” “No!” Shaun shook his head, a strange smile appearing on his face. “Since this kid has the guts to come here, I won’t let him leave so easily. I’ll play with him slowly.” With that said, Shaun picked up an empty wine glass and spat into it. Spit! Immediately, he handed the wine glass to the dozen best men around him. Spit! Spit! Spit! The groomsmen immediately understood and spat into it one after another. Soon, a nauseating, cloudy glass of liquid was produced. “What’s the meaning of this?” Marcus frowned when he saw this. “Hehe!” Shaun held the wine glass, handed it to Marcus, and said with a smile, “Marcus, as long as you drink this, I will not hold you accountable for the offense just now. How about it? I’m being very kind, right?” He was humiliating Marcus. It was also an unabashed humiliation! He wanted to make Marcus a laughing stock in the city in front of everyone. He even wanted to make Marcus the most despicable existence! “What if I don’t drink it?” Marcus asked frigidly. Shaun showed a ferocious expression on his face and threatened. “If that’s the case, don’t blame me for being merciless. I can send you back to prison for a few more years just with my words and some random reason. “You have to drink this even if you don’t want to!” As soon as he said that, Lexie and a dozen of the best men next to Shaun also were rejoicing in Marcus’ misfortune and started shooting. “Boy, this is a gift from Mr. Knight to you!” “As long as you drink that, you can avoid prison for a few years!” "Marcus, what are you doing standing there? Drink up!" … Marcus reached out his hand as everyone stared at him and took the wine glass with everyone’s saliva. “Haha!” Upon seeing this, Shaun laughed arrogantly. “Marcus, you are smart for giving up. From now on, I can take you as a slave. You can eat the bones of my meat.” Next to him, Lexie also mocked to her heart’s content. “You punk, you used to speak so arrogantly, but now you are also bowing your head obediently like a dog. Do it again if you have the guts!” “Okay!” Unexpectedly, Marcus’s eyes turned sharp in the next moment, and he said proudly, “Since you dogs are forcing me to do so, then I’ll happily oblige.” After saying that, Marcus took action brazenly. He grabbed Shaun’s chin with his left hand and poured the liquid from the wine glass into his mouth with his right hand. It was so fast! Too fast! Gulp, gulp, gulp! Unprepared, Shaun was force-fed a whole glass of cloudy and viscous liquid! “Ah!” After a few seconds, Shaun grabbed his throat and retched desperately, but it was to no avail as he had already swallowed the liquid. When everyone present saw this scene, they were dumbfounded and extremely surprised. No one thought that Marcus would not only be so unafraid of threats but also would make such a shocking move! ‘Is he not scared of Shaun’s revenge?’ “You b*stard! You’re dead! I will make your life in the East Sea a living hell! “Where are the hotel security guards? Get here now!” Shaun glared at Marcus viciously, gnashing his teeth with hatred. Stomp stomp stomp stomp stomp! Suddenly, there was a burst of dense footsteps. Everyone saw Mr. Waterson, the manager of Dynasty Hotel, walking over with dozens of security guards. “Mr. Waterson, this brat ruined my engagement party and even disrespected me by forcibly feeding me a glass of saliva! Ask the security to break his hands and feet now and throw him into the sewer!” Shaun put on an ugly and malevolent face since he had backing. “Hehe!” Marcus showed a mysterious smile and thought to himself, ‘This is about to be good.’ … “How presumptuous!” Suddenly, Mr. Waterson yelled, raised his right hand, and slapped Shaun hard across the face. Slap! This slap stumped Shaun. Many guests present were also taken aback, not knowing why. “Mr. Waterson, are you out of your mind? That kid Marcus is clearly the one making trouble, but you slapped me instead. What is the reason for that?” Shaun roared angrily. “Why?” Marcus raised his eyebrows and had a mysterious smile on his face. It was as if everything was under his control. “Mr. Waterson, tell this guy who I am!” “Yes, Sir!” Mr. Waterson nodded and looked at Shaun coldly. Soon, he said a shocking sentence, “Open your damn eyes and look closely. “The Mr. Marcus Knight standing in front of you is the owner of Dynasty Hotel!”
