His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 1048

Hearing this, Ashton sighed and nodded. Now that things had escalated, the issue relating to Michelin's rating was now a lost cause. It was better for him to attempt other ways to fame and choose another pathway. By getting on Coby's good side, their restaurant would be able to grow larger and more renowned too.

Fade pulled Liza behind him. He glared at Coby and asked, "Do I know you? Why are you doing this?"

Coby snorted coldly and looked at Fade, mocking, "Well, Mr. Chen, you're only recently popular in Jade City, so it's natural for you to not know me. It's just that I happen to know you, Mr. Chen."

"As for why I am against you and doing this, you must know that my family is in the pharmaceutical business," Coby narrowed his eyes and continued.

Needless to say, Fade had understood what was going on when he heard this.

It had to be the recent medical reforms that impacted the Liu family's pharmaceutical business. Coby held a grudge towards him and seized this opportunity to humiliate Fade.

"What do you want to do next?" Now that Fade knew Coby came with evil intentions, Fade didn't say anything to defend himself. He just looked at Coby coldly while asking his next move.

Hearing this, Coby slowly smirked eerily, "I didn't expect Mr. Chen to be such a wise person. We have not even started doing anything yet, but you've already admitted defeat."

"I might as well tell you my simple demands. Transfer your Sincere Medicine Center to the Liu family now! Also, you have to..." Coby narrowed his eyes while making several nonsensical demands.

However, Fade waved his hand and interrupted him halfway through, saying, "I think you've misunderstood what I meant."

"Wh-what?" Coby's expression sank and glanced at Fade.

The corner of Fade's mouth twitched as he looked down upon Cody, asking, "When I asked you what you wanted to do next, I was asking if you'd realize the consequences of going against me. It's not that I've surrendered to you."

"You..." Coby didn't expect Fade to be so arrogant. He snorted heavily, "Do you really think that you can have your way in Jade City just by opening a pharmacy? This is not your domain, so don't be too proud about it." "Oh really? You're the condescending one here," Fade curled his lips in disdain. He glanced at the security guards who surrounded them and sneered, "Since you said you know me, you should be pretty clear about what I'm capable of. To think that I'll be able to be defeated with your lousy henchmen is just part of your wishful thinking."

Everyone was immediately angered by what Fade said. They glared at him, a raging fire burning in their eyes as they bellowed.

"Fade, you *sshole! Don't be too arrogant."

"It's just a pharmacy. You're just lucky, so what are you proud of?"

"You are courting your own death for offending Young Master Liu."

Meanwhile, Carson still had a smirk plastered on his face. He stepped forward with his hands crossed confidently as he said, "The only reason why you're so arrogant now is that you know little martial arts, don't you?"

"Hah! With your amateurish skills, you'll never be able to defeat us," Carson mocked gleefully.

Fade merely waved his hand and lashed out. Suddenly, an angry whistling sound could be heard. A wave of energy that was released barely missed Carson's ears before it landed fiercely on the pillar behind him, a thunderous crack immediately heard after that.

With such mighty strength, Carson's expression instantly changed. He couldn't help but fear how he barely scraped past death.

Fade remarked lightly, "Unfortunately for you, my amateurish skills are still more than enough to kill you."

Carson's face sank. A touch of anger appeared in his eyes, but after the close encounter he had just now, he did not dare to move forward. After all, Fade's strength was not something he could compare with.

Just then, Carson's phone rang. He was overjoyed when he saw who was calling and quickly answered the phone, saying, "Master Habib, you have arrived? All right, I will send someone to pick you up right away."
