Louis red at Edwin, who was suffering in silence, before letting out a disdainful chuckle. Arrogance
was written all over his face.
He narrowed his eyes and hissed, “Alright, Edwin. Since you can‘t be all high and mighty anymore, let
me ask you again...”
“Are you kneeling or not?!
Leslie‘s face turned icy.
“Don‘t you dare cross the line, Louis!” she growled, livid.
melgarvey yor!
“Cross the line?”
Louis sized up Leslie with a scornful look.
“Do you think I don‘t have the guts to hurt you just because your father‘s the first–inmand for Hong
Kong?”
“Try to stop me, and I‘lle for you right after I‘m finished with him!”
Louis gave her face a threatening pinch, his gaze on her filled with utter disdain.
Then, he shifted his attention back to Edwin.
“I‘ll count to three. Kneel, and I‘ll give you a chance to talk with Kaitlyn,” he warned grimly.
“And if you don‘t, I‘ll just kill you right here.”
“Of course, you can try to resist. But if you do, I‘ 11 kill every single one of you!”
Louis broke into a smug grin, confident that he had the upper hand.
“Three! Two! One...”
Edwin was left with no choice. He could feel the murderous intent seeping out of Louis, and so mmed
his knees to the ground as he knelt.
Based on his usual rich yboy attitude, he wouldn‘t give in that easily.
But for the sake of that night‘s mission, he swallowed his pride and willfully debased
himself.
“Young Master Mendoza?!” Leslie eximed, so startled that she stood rooted on the spot.
Harvey‘s eyes shrunk ever so slightly. He was
impressed
A man of great ambition doesn‘t care about details. To achieve the goal, Edwin was willing to show
humility. Harvey was quite surprised by the turn of events.
In fact, he had been certain that a fight was
about to break out.
“Oh? My dear Young Master Mendoza, how can you just kneel like that?”
“Weren‘t you acting all high and mighty in front of me just now?”
“Didn‘t you tell me to shoot you in the face?!”
“Why would you give up now?!”
Louis raised Edwin’s jaw, firearm in hand.)
“I‘ve grown sick of your face a long time ago!” he shouted, his face the epitome of scorn and hate.

“You act like you‘re above everyone else just because your sister has your back! Do you really think that
you‘re some hotshot?!”
“In my eyes, you‘re just some nobody!”
“You have the guts to show off about being a King of Arms after being enlisted in the Sword Camp for
three whole years?!”
“Piss off!”
“Just you?!”
Louis then spat on Edwin‘s face, and watched it drip slowly down his cheek with great satisfaction.
Edwin gritted his teeth and stayed silent in face of Louis‘s mistreatment, not making a single peep.
However, his gaze grew progressively colder every passing second.
Harvey intended to see how far Edwin could go withoutshing out. At this moment, he only watched

“You‘re being rude, Louis!”
Leslie frantically took out some tissue to clean Edwin up.
“What are you trying to do?”
“Young Master Mendoza‘s already kneeling, just
like you asked! What else do you want?!”
“Are you really nning to go against us?”
“Go against you?!”
Louis pointed his firearm right at Leslie‘s face.
There was no hesitance in his gesture.
“Do you think I can‘t?!”
“Enough!”
Kaitlyn, who had been watching the show, spoke up right before Louisshed out.
“There‘s no need to insult Young Master Mendoza like that, Louis. He‘s still a man who belonged to Hong
Kong and Las Vegas‘s upper social circle, no matter the circumstance.”
“Though we work for different people, it doesn‘ t mean we should point guns at them. We‘re all business
people here. We should at least show some respect. Right?”
