The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 939

“Buddy, a little friction and tension within a bar is commonplace. Don't you think resorting to physical violence like this seems a bit excessive?” Jedidiah began.

Observing the sorry state of his subordinates sprawled on the ground, he deduced that Donald must also possess martial skills.

Jedidiah, cognizant of not wanting to antagonize such individuals, proposed to Donald, “How about this? If you provide me with three hundred thousand, we can regard today's incident as resolved.”

“Three hundred thousand?” Emmett retorted defiantly. “I'll give you three hundred thousand, but I'm going to cripple that brat's hand no matter what!”

Emmett wasn't lacking in financial resources.

He and his companions had been subjected to Donald's physical prowess. What they were forfeiting wasn't money, but their dignity. Hence, when Jedidiah proposed that Donald resolve the situation with a payment of three hundred thousand, Emmett was the first to voice his dissent.

Jedidiah turned his gaze toward Emmett and remarked, “Mr. Speight, it's important to approach matters with reason, don't you think? I'm not fully informed about the details yet, but our establishment is equipped with surveillance cameras. If you genuinely believe you've been wronged, why don't we access the surveillance footage and examine it closely?”

Emmett was no fool. Upon comprehending Jedidiah's implied caution, he clenched his teeth and responded, “Very well, three hundred thousand it is. You got lucky today, kid. If we were anywhere else, I'd ensure you didn't make it to see another day!”

Emmett had already agreed to this settlement arrangement as a gesture of respect toward the United Hearts Society.

However, to everyone's surprise, Donald responded with nonchalance, “I don't have money, but I do have a life. There's no need to delay any further; let's settle the score right here, right now.”

Upon concluding his statement, Donald swiftly flicked his right wrist, propelling a glass shard directly toward Emmett's throat.

Jedidiah, who was positioned nearby, swiftly caught the glass shard with his hand.

Had Jedidiah not intervened at that moment, Emmett's life could have genuinely been in jeopardy.

Regaining his senses, Emmett's legs gave way, causing him to collapse to the ground with a resounding thud.

Jedidiah addressed Donald in a solemn tone, “Hey, buddy, it's a small matter, isn't it? Don't you think that resorting to killing is a bit excessive?”

“Three hundred thousand is no small matter to me.” Donald signaled with a beckoning finger. “Quit lingering and chattering. If you're up for a fight, let's get to it.”
