Ethan had the urge to smash his phone onto the floor after hanging up the phone. “Silas is way over the line!”
Charles was displeased as well. He said resentfully, “What can we do? Rumor has it, Silas' wife is possibly a member of the Winston family.”
The Winston family was also one of the Ten Prestigious Families.
Their businesses mainly revolved around petroleum and coal mining industries. They control one-third of the country's oil fields.
Someone knocked on the door amidst their perturbation.
Charles and Zayne frowned.
“I'd like to see who that is. Believe me that I'll chop off this person's head!” Ethan instantly leaped to his feet and strode toward the door.
Everyone else turned to look at the door.
When the door was yanked open, a young man with disheveled hair and indistinguishable facial features was seen standing outside.
The next second, colors drained from
Ethan's face in fright. He took a few steps back and stammered, “C-Crabface!”
The elites of Pollerton were made aware of the advent of Crabface in the city. He shattered Leviathan and Noah's destroyer with a kick, battering Javon, the Sword Saint, until the latter scampered miserably in defeat.
Ethan never anticipated Crabface to appear in front of him suddenly.
He wondered, “Could Crabface be working under Silas?”
Charles, Zayne, and the others swiftly stood up as if a huge threat had emerged. They gazed at the figure at the door with darkened and solemn expressions.
“May I know why you are here, Mister?” Charles stepped forward, holding his walking stick. In fact, he was a muscular man, but he enjoyed putting up the pretense of a fragile, weak elderly by using the walking stick. That habit was driven by his extreme sense of vigilance.
“Excuse me. I dropped my rubber band.” While fear and anxiety filled the chests of the others inside the room, Crabface bent down to pick up a black rubber band from the floor. Then, he brushed and tied his hair, revealing the whole of his face.
Ethan was stunned. He cursed, “F*ck...”
