"Yolanda, are you really going to choose an outsider whom you've just met for two days over me?" Lemont asked, staring at her in disbelief.
She deliberately turned her head away from him and replied, "Lemont, your attitude makes me sick. Even if Brother Chen wasn't here, I would never marry you either."
"You... You..." He gritted his teeth, misery and despair filling his eyes. Her reply had rendered him speechless.
"Yolanda, you made me do this. You left me without a choice."
After uttering those harsh words, he turned to look at Lingo and said, "Mr. Gu, that kid robbed my beast hunting team's prey, a Whitehead Bear, from the forest."
"Please help me get back the vicious beast. In return, I'll give it to you as a token of my gratitude."
Several people at the scene turned to look at Lemont in surprise upon hearing that.
Even the lofty and powerful Lingo was impressed, and his eyes flickered when he heard of the powerful vicious beast.
After all, the Whitehead Bear was a Rank 8 vicious beast, which was equivalent to a martial artist in the Soul Refine Realm, and vicious beasts of this level were usually worth more than 50 thousand yuan stones.
50 thousand yuan stones was not a small sum of money to them, not even for Lingo.
At that moment, a smile appeared on Lingo's face. He looked at Lemont and said, "Don't worry. As the captain of the City Guards, it's my duty to seek justice for the people. Therefore, I'll definitely help you get the Whitehead Bear back."
However, Hadrian quickly explained, "No, Mr. Gul It' s not what you think it is. The Whitehead Bear doesn't belong to our beast hunting team. Instead, Mr. Chen was the one who killed it. If he hadn't acted in time, we would've been killed by the Whitehead Bear." With that, he shot Lemont an angry glare, and the others turned to look at the latter with doubtful expressions.
"Lemont, what are you doing?"
"The Whitehead Bear attacked us at that time. If it wasn't for Mr. Chen, we would’ve all been killed."
"Lemont, how could you do this? You're going too far."
Meanwhile, Yolanda cursed at him, "Lemon, are you shameless? Brother Chen's our savior. How could you treat him like this?"
However, at that moment, Lemont was completely blinded by anger. He ignored their warnings, then continued to look at Lingo and begged, "Mr. Gu, please help me."
Just then, Rayyan stepped forward and took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
"So that's where the vicious beasts come from!"
"Sir, we just sold a Whitehead Bear and a Cloud-splitting Leopard at Myriad Treasures Hall for a total of more than 66 thousand yuan stones. We didn't expect those vicious beasts to come from such an unknown origin!"
Upon hearing that, Lemont’s and Lingo's expressions darkened again.
''Apparently, apart from the Whitehead Bear, you also caught a Cloud-splitting Leopard!" Lingo gasped in surprise. The Cloud-splitting Leopard was a Rank 7 vicious beast, which was equivalent to a martial artist in the Physical Refine Realm.
Lemont quickly nodded. "Yes, yes. The Cloudsplitting Leopard originally belonged to our beast hunting team, but that kid stole it from us."
"Lemont, what nonsense are you spouting?!” Yolanda could not help but seethe.
However, with the temptation of more than 50 thousand yuan stones, Lingo would not let go of this golden opportunity. With a wave of his hand, he ordered theCity Guards, "Everyone move and go catch the thief!"
At that instant, a dozen fully armed City Guards raised their weapons and surrounded
Fade.
The atmosphere immediately grew tense.
At the same time, Yolanda moved to stand beside Fade without hesitation and said firmly, "Brother Chen, I'm on your side."
Hadrian and the others could not help but bite their lips, as looks of struggle appeared on their faces.
Of course, they knew that Fade was wronged, and they also hoped to fight for him and seek justice.
