    Chapter 130


    Bucky was bewildered by how things had spiraled out of his control.


    For a moment, he felt a hint of cowardice well up inside of him when he saw Adrian. After all, nobody


    had ever dared make such a huge response to whatever he had done in the past


    Bucky was actually afraid of having things blew up and go out of control. And on this day, three of his


    men had died before he had even personally made a move


    Feeling slightly worried, he knew the situation was only going to get worse now that it was out of his


    control.


    Meanwhile, the surrounding students were witnessing the turn of events. All of them were staring at


    Adrian and suddenly realized how different he was.


    “I doubt Barky would dare to kill three people so openly.


    “Wh–Who are you?! How dare you kill my


    men!”


    Despite how worried Bucky was, he still needed to put up a strong front. Moreover, there were so many


    onlookers. How else was he supposed to continue his reign of tyranny in Swallowston if he did not do


    so?


    On the other hand, Dn did not seem to realize just how frightened his father was at that moment.


    Instead, he looked at Adrian with the same arrogant expression he had before and yelled, “Who the


    f*ck do you think you are?! We’ll kill you for killing my father’s men!”


    Dn had grown up pampered. He thought that his father would be able to make any situation he got


    himself into disappear. This was why he never knew the real meaning of fear.


    Realizing that Dn was going to say something else, Bucky hurriedly pulled his son aside, afraid that


    the situation would continue to blow up.


    After that, he walked toward Adrian and said. “I have no grudge against you, nor do you have any


    against me. So, did you kill my men just to challenge me?”


    Adrian remained silent and sat on a bench. “My name is Adrian Xander, and the girl you’re going after


    today is my little


    sister.”


    Adrian’s statement rang through Bucky’s mind like a bolt of lightning, causing him to take a few steps


    back in shock.


    Even Dn himself was surprised, while the surrounding students sucked in a breath of cold air.


    “So, he’s Adaline’s brother. No wonder he showed up out of nowhere.”


    “I know, right? I had no idea she had a brother.”


    “This is going to be really interesting!”


    A good many of them were waiting to witness how things were going to unfold. They were all curious


    about what was going to happen next.


    en without any


    Bucky clearly had no idea that Adaline’s older brother would be there, and Adriani had even lilled three


    of his men warning


    That small bint of cowardice overtook him, and Bucky knew that nobody was going to benefit if the


    situation blew up any further. On top of that, he did not have the moral high ground, to begin with.

    ‘I thought she was from an ordinary family. I thought all I had to do was give her a stern warning and


    she’d be trembling in her boots. I never thought she’d have a brother who’s fearless of death.”


    Bucky took a deep breath, forcing down that speck of cowardice he had for the sake of his dignity.


    “I see. So you’re Adaline’s older brother. Just the man I’d like to see.


    “Your little sister hit my son, so what are we going to do about that?” Bucky questioned Adrian with a


    cold expression on his


    face


    Adrian raised his head and smiled. “What are we going to do about that indeed?”


    Bucky frowned. “I’ll let youe up with a proposal. We’ll call it even when I’m satisfied, Otherwise,


    things are going to get a lot worse for the two of you.”


    Bucky was determined to put up a strong front despite how frightened he was for the sake of his dignity


    as a big shot in Swallowston


    He could not even bear to imagine how many people would treat him as aughing stock should be


    back down at that moment. “Did you hear what I said?” Bucky asked angrily when Adrian remained


    silent.
