Nathan's words had completely enraged Hurley.
Brem and his other men, all of whom were also filled with righteousness, uttered, “Mr. Fuller, this kid is simply not afraid to die. There's no need to waste time talking to him, let's just teach him a lesson!”
“Yes, boss, let's get rid of him.”
“Yes, kill him and avenge Mr. Branson!” Brem and the others shouted murderously.
Hurley, however, did not rush to order Nathan to be killed as he laughed furiously, “Haha, throughout the half of lifetime fighting in Brimmopolis, I have never seen anyone as mad as you. It makes me wonder how capable you are that you dare to look down on the Fuller family like that.”
Besides being a famous consortium in Brimmopolis, the Fuller family also had good relations with powerful politicians in the city.
Even the head of gangsters was willing to run errands for Hurley and Christian, the vice mayor of the capital, was a regular companion of Hurley too.
All the bosses in the business world behaved respectfully whenever they saw Hurley.
It was said that people from all walks of life had to pay Hurley a few favors.
This was the first time Hurley had encountered someone like Nathan, who had said outright that he didn't take the Fuller family seriously.
He was curious to know what capabilities
Nathan had since he dared to go against him.
On what basis?
Nathan smiled and said calmly, “Based on this word, righteousness. If you're a righteous person, you're welcomed everywhere, but if you don't have manners, you will be reprimanded. Your son has caused trouble, harassed my wife, and provoked me in every way, I taught him a small lesson by making him suffer a little. Since your son made a mistake, shouldn't you make amends and apologize to me as his father?”
After hearing that, Hurley broke into laughter.
“Righteousness? Kid, you probably don't know that power rules everything, do you? I have hundreds of guards here and one punch from each of them would be able to beat you into a pulp. If you can't even save your little life, how can you still talk sense to me? I'll give you a chance to live now. Get over here obediently, kneel down and bow to my son while you apologize. Then let him beat you back twice as much as how you have beaten him. Then I might spare your life for once. Listen carefully, just maybe!”
After hearing that, everyone at the scene looked at Nathan pitifully.
With her daughter in her arms, Penny went to Nathan's side and held his hand, implying that she would share Nathan's honor and disgrace.
The happiest person on the scene was Branson as he wiped a handful of blood from his face while glaring at Nathan with a wicked smile. “Brat, you probably didn't expect that you would fall into my hands so soon, did you?”
Nathan smiled as he uttered, “I'm talking sense to you, but you're talking force to me. Never mind, I will let two of my subordinates play with you. However, I hope that you guys will stick to your guns and honor your words to the end, so that when I start using force with you, you won't run to me and start reasoning with me instead.”
Hearing Nathan's words, Hurley and the others smiled coldly.
