Chapter 55
Some people were eager to take advantage of the situation and strike again, but Evelyn quickly intervened, “Stop. Don’t fight
anymore.
A man, feeling smug, said, “Little girl, don’t be scared. These guys are here to make trouble and need a harsh lesson to behave. Thomas has a massive fanbase backing him. He’s the red boss around here.”
“Yeah, teach them a lesson so they won’t forget, someone else chimed in,
After some egging on, another person took a swing, and Evelyn panicked, “Stop! That’s Jeremy D*ns, th***e son of the wealthiest man in Sorelia. If you keep this up, things will get serious,”
The moment those words left Evelyn’s mouth, the chaotic scene suddenly froze, like a movie on pause. Everything went dead silent, only the music lingering in the air.
What was once cheerful music now sounded like the beating of war drums, tightening everyone’s nerves.
Some customers standing on the edge had already begun quietly shuffling away, eager to slip out of the escalating situation. The son of the wealthiest man was not someone they could afford to mess with.
Jeremy had already pulled himself up from the ground, and after his identity was revealed, a hint of smugness appeared on his bruised and battered face. He wiped the blood from the corrier of his mouth, his expression dark and sinister.
He pointed at the people around him. his gaze cold and menacing. “Hmph, I’ve got all your faces memorized. None of you are getting away.”
The few customers Jeremy singled out, who were just teenagers, paled at Jeremy’s words, instinctively taking a step back in
fear
Meanwhile, more people sc****ed, afraid of getting caught up in the trouble.
Jeremy, for now, ignored the small fry and turned to face Thomas Lifting his chin arrogantly like a proud rooster, he puffed out his chest, only to wince in pain from his head wound, causing his mouth to twitch as he let out a grunt. The pain only made his expression more vicious. Tilting his head, he sneered at Thomas, “You ba****d, you’ve got guts.
Thomas stared coldly at Jeremy. “Come at me. Let them go. Hiswords were few but commanding.
Lucia, standing nearby, couldn’t help but glance at Thomas. His proud stance and unyielding spirit were striking, as if Jeremy’s wealth and status meant nothing to him.
Jeremy laughed mockingly and nodded. “Alright, you’ve got nerve. Let’s see if you’re still this c***y when you’re rotting in a cell. Then, he called over one of his companions. “Paul, make the call. Get some guys over here and wreck this place first
“Got it” Paul Buckley, already nursing his own injuries, was eager for payback and gleefully prepared to make the call Jeremy, smashing the place is going too far,” Frank interjected.
Jeremy pointed to the wound on his forehead, sneering, “Frank, do you really think I can just let this slide?”
Frank continued, “Don’t blow this out of proportion
“It’s already blown up,” Jeremy retorted, lifting his chin defiantly His face was smeared with blood, making him look quite pitiful despite his attempt to appear intimidating. It was almost comical. I’ve never been treated like this in my entire life. And now, in Anguria. I get beaten up. You expect me to swallow that?

Chapter 55
Jeremy sneered, focusing all his anger on Thomas, Thomas, the little soccer star, huh? Let’s see how I ruin you.”
Seraphina’s heart skipped a beat as she listened. If Jeremy was the son of Sorelia’s wealthiest man, it would be effortless for him to take down Thomas. Thomas had just made it into the national team, and now, if he got involved in a public brawl, he could easily be kicked out.
“I’ll make sure you rot in jail,” Jeremy said, his face smeared with blood, his smile twisted with malice.
“Bring it on.” Thomas responded coldly. He had that stubborn pride, never willing to bow to anyone.
Paul returned after making the call, grimming smugly. “Jeremy, Gerald and his crew are just around the corner. They’ll be here any minute.”
“Good” Jeremy clapped his hands, satisfied.
Gerald was a thug in Angoria, well-known among those with power and influence. Even the bar manager rushed over with a hervous smile at Paul’s words. “Mr. D**ns, let’s not trash the bar, okay? Our boss is friends with Gerald, and
“Relax. The damage will be on him,” Jeremy said, sneering at Thomas. “A few hundreds of thousands of dollars won’t break him. I got humiliated here, and if I don’t let off some steam, I won’t be able to live with myself
The bar manager could only offer a weak smile before retreating to call his boss.
Lucia stepped forward, standing directly in front of Jeremy. “Can we stop this now?”
When Jeremy saw Lucia approaching, his arrogance faltered slightly. He forced a smile, one that looked more painful than cheerful “Lucia, I normally listen to you, but look at me. I was beaten up like this. How can I just let it go?”
“The bar isn’t his, so what’s the point of smashing it?” Lucia reasoned.
Jeremy fell silent.
Seraphina, thinking about Thomas’ future, stepped forward and spoke to Jeremy in a gentle tone. “I’m sorry. I apologize on/ my brother’s behalf. He hit you, and we’ll do whatever needs to be done to settle this. But smashing up the bar really isn’t
necessary.
Jeremy raised an eyebrow, sizing Seraphina up. Seeing how beautiful she was, he smirked with a sleazy expression. “If you really want to apologize for your brother, why don’t you spend a few days with me and my buddies-
Before Jeremy could finish, a scream ripped from his throat.
Thomas’ fist had slammed into Jeremy’s eye with lightning speed. Anyone could mess with him, but the moment someone disrespected his sister, even with just a lewd comment, his fists didn’t need permission.
Jeremy stumbled backward and collapsed to the ground, enraged by the pain. At that moment, a group of rough-looking men entered the bar, led by a cold-faced man who paused upon seeing Jeremy. “Mr. D****ns, what happened?”
With his reinforcements here, Jeremy’s confidence surged. He grabbed a bottle and smashed it against the bar. “Smash everything! Tear this place apart!”
Without further questions, Gerald, the leader of the group, waved his hand. “You heard him. Wreck it!”
Chaos erupted in the bar. Bottles shattered, furniture was overturned, and the few remaining customers fled in panic. Jeremy, full of hatred, pointed at Thomas. “Beat him! Beat him to a pulp. If anything happens, I’ll take the blame.” “Got it, Gerald replied.
Lucia stepped before Jeremy just as Gerald ordered his men to attack Thomas. “That’s enough. Jeremy, do you really want to

Jeremy remained silent. Lucia’s words seemed to strike a chord, and after a tense moment, Jeremy backed down slightly. He pointed at Thomas, seething with fury. “Fine. I won’t kill you today. But if I can’t have you rot in jail for the rest of your life, I’m not worthy of the Di****s family name”
Thomas smirked. Tll take whatever you’ve got,” he said grimly, then turned to Seraphina and Barbara. “You two, leave.”
Seraphina hesitated. She thought. How can I possibly walk away at a time like this?’ Seeing the hatred burning in Jeremy’s eyes, she couldn’t help but fear what he might do to Thomas
