Fernando Lee’s brows were so furrowed they almost seemed to squeeze out water. Being confronted by Julius Reed in this manner, the more he thought about it, the more disgusted he felt, as if he were holding a chamber pot in his hands.

Taking into account those two poems and the final two characters, most of the people present were inclined to believe Julius Reed’s explanation.

But Fernando absolutely could not admit it!

Once he admitted it, he would lose all his dignity, and his status within the circle would plummet drastically!

More importantly, how would Sophia Leocadia view him afterward?

“These are all your speculations! They’re not convincing at all. If you don’t provide any other evidence, I will abide by our wager and knock out your four front teeth,” he threatened.

Fernando’s face was grim, and his fists were clenched tightly.

From his childhood to adulthood, no one had dared to make him lose face like this!

Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he had enjoyed the adoration of everyone around him, whether in school or in society. The mere mention of the Lee Family name would make any boss bow respectfully.

Yet today, someone had challenged him repeatedly, intentionally making him endure humiliation in front of Sophia Leocadia and a group of attractive young men and women!

“Kid, are you looking for trouble on purpose?”

Just then, a young man stepped out from the crowd. He walked up to Julius Reed and said with utmost arrogance, “If you know what’s good for you, you’ll knock out your own teeth and crawl out like a dog! Otherwise, the brothers here won’t mind sending you out on your back.”

After issuing the threat, he gave a cold laugh, “Whether you’re carried into the crematorium or the morgue afterward, we can’t guarantee.”

“Exactly! You’re really overestimating yourself, refusing the kindness offered to you. Betting with Young Master Lee, who do you think you are?”

“Will you do it yourself, or shall we assist you?”

Knowing that Fernando had no way to take action himself, his employees’ employees immediately swarmed forward, threatening Julius Reed with fierce and demonic expressions.

Performing well in this situation could potentially garner their families favor from the Lee Family; even a minor collaboration could mean endless money.

They understood this principle very clearly.

“Oh! So Young Master Lee knows he’s lost and has brought a pack of dogs to back him up?”

Surrounded by a group of young men, Julius Reed showed no fear whatsoever: “Look at this bunch!”

He looked at one of the young men: “Pale complexion and weak legs, clearly a case of excessive indulgence. You’re completely impotent, just for show.”

“You!”

The young man Julius Reed had pointed out flushed red with anger and retorted, “You’re full of shit!”

Not far from the young man, everyone’s gazes shifted uniformly onto a woman.

“What are you all looking at me for! How embarrassing! Primrose Leocadia, you worthless thing, I’m breaking up with you!”

The woman, her face also turning crimson, turned away and ran outside.

“Valentino Michael, don’t go!”

The young man stomped his foot and chased after her like a rabbit.

A burst of laughter filled the tense lobby instantly.

“You’re a chronic smoker, often waking up in pain in the middle of the night, and you constantly suffer from a swollen throat. If you don’t get it treated soon, it’s mostly lung cancer,”

Julius Reed turned to another young man: “But it’s pretty much too late now.”

“Divine Doctor, please save me!”

Having heard Julius Reed’s words, the previously arrogant young man dropped to his knees on the ground, his face deathly pale.

“Please… save me!”

What Julius Reed described matched the young man’s symptoms exactly; every night, he would wake up in pain, and recently, his throat was often swollen. Despite visiting the hospital, the doctors hadn’t been able to diagnose the problem.

Today, after what Julius Reed had said, coupled with the previous encounter with the young man suffering from kidney deficiency.

In fact, everyone in the circle knew that the young man was indeed incapable, but no one had pointed it out.

“Why should I save you? Cure you just so you can come and hit me? Please, I’m not sick in the head!”

Julius Reed turned to look at another man, paying him no attention whatsoever.

When his gaze fell on the man, he got quite a fright.

“I was just passing by, got nothing to do with this, I’ll be going now!”

Without waiting for Julius Reed to speak, the young man promptly left.

In just an instant, the crowd that had gathered around Julius Reed scattered, leaving only the young man with lung pain still kneeling at Julius Reed’s feet.

With just a few words, the hotel lobby fell silent.

Could this young man be the Divine Doctor?

Sophia Leocadia’s eyes were filled with surprise, no one wished for Julius Reed to be outstanding more than she did.

“Stop bewitching the crowd with your nonsense!”

Seeing his loyal employee scared away, Fernando Lee could not save face, and with a stern look, he asked, “The bet must be honored! Everyone here heard it loud and clear, don’t think of denying it!”

Wooosh!

The hotel’s main door was tightly closed by the security guards, it seemed that Julius Reed couldn’t leave the Globe Hotel unless he handed over his four front teeth.

“Young Master Lee, one should not burn all bridges, to have more pleasant encounters in the future! What this gentleman said makes no sense, but taking it at face value, this is indeed a chamber pot, and since you deny it, none can persuade the other. Why not call it a draw?”

As the main character of the banquet, Sophia Leocadia once again played the peacemaker.

She had been better off not speaking, for her words completely enraged Fernando!

Men usually have a sense of possessiveness, especially those like Fernando Lee, who come from major families.

His future wife was actually defending a stranger, something he couldn’t tolerate!

“A bet can only result in win or lose, how could there be a draw! Sophia, I know he’s your friend, but the bet has been made today, you can’t expect me to break my word, can you?”

He turned around, addressing the hundreds of handsome men and beautiful women behind him: “Everyone, am I right?”

“Right!”

The crowd shouted in unison.

They were just there for the excitement, and since no one dared to offend Fernando Lee, they naturally sided with him.

With everyone saying this, Sophia Leocadia frowned deeply, and her eyes filled with disgust when she looked at Fernando.

She didn’t like arrogant and conceited people, especially those who had no real abilities and relied entirely on their family’s legacy.

“None of us wanted things to get to this point. But even in a bet, rules must be observed! I think if Young Master Lee lost, he would fulfill his promise, wouldn’t he?”

A young man stepped out of the crowd, dressed in a flashy suit, looking frivolous, but his demeanor was quite generous.

“Young Master Lawrence Koller, you’re right. If I lose today, he can slap me twice, and the Bugatti outside will be presented with both hands!”

Fernando Lee’s tone softened when he saw the young man.

The young man’s name was Bryson Stephen, a scion of the Koller Family from the capital.

The Koller Family and the Lee Family were nearly equal in influence, just involved in different fields with no conflicting interests.

Today, being Sophia Leocadia’s birthday and as one of her potential suitors, Bryson Stephen naturally showed up at the Globe Hotel.

“Since that’s the case, please present us with evidence that convinces everyone. Otherwise, the bet can naturally be considered a win for Young Master Lee!”

Bryson Stephen stood with his hands in his pockets, grinning at Julius Reed: “You don’t have much time left.”
