Chapter 639

Zane's tone was cold when he replied, "You should keep your thoughts to yourself."

The woman was so shocked that she didn't dare to speak again. Meanwhile, Jack continued to walk toward the exit with Charlotte trailing behind him. Zane, Neil, Leo and Mona also followed after them.

Glen's entire body was trembling with rage at how the group treated him as if he was as insignificant as the air around them. They had completely trampled on the friendship they shared with him. If he let them go today, it would deal a huge blow toward both him and Dynasty Hotel's future businesses.

When it came down to it, Glen was just a businessman. If he had to go up against the government, his chances of emerging victorious were slim to none. He couldn't afford to ignore the authority that backed his followers from behind the

scenes. Thɪs chapter is updated by find⁂novel.net

"Stop right there!" Glen finally yelled out when he saw how Jack and the others were about to step through the exit.

Zane turned his head to shoot him a frigid glare while Jack also calmly turned around. They were greeted with Glen, whose face was twisted with fury. "Trust me when I say that you're going to regret it if you walk through that door!"

Zane and the others were stunned momentarily. They couldn't believe the words that just came out from Glen's mouth.

Was he actually threatening them?

Leo's and Neil's faces warped with rage while Charlotte and Mona looked on with shock. Glen's explosion of anger had left them feeling distant from him as if he was a stranger.

Was he really the same Glen who they had looked up to once upon a time?

An icy smile stretched across Jack's face. "What? Are you planning to take my life?"

"Go ahead and leave if you'd like to find out," was Glen's harsh reply.

Glen couldn't control Zane, Neil, and the others, but he didn't believe that he couldn't even control the son of a pair of farmers. Neil's face darkened instantly. Gone was the bashful man from earlier as he spoke in a cold tone, "Glen, you have to understand that things are different from the past. You have to take responsibility for your words!"

The warning was clear in his tone. They were no longer engaging in casual banter like before, instead they were being completely serious with Glen. They were telling him that their past friendship would not hold much weight if they were forced to protect Jack's and Zane's interests.

The Anglerian-styled woman's eyes widened to the size of saucers. She couldn't believe what she was witnessing. She had never seen Neil talk back to the ringleader of their group so determinedly.

She wondered if Zane had also followed in his father's footsteps to become a politician and no longer prioritized maintaining the pure friendship he once shared with Glen.

Surprised gasps erupted amongst the onlookers. They could all recall how Zane and Neil used to rely on Glen in the past. It was hard to believe that they would turn on him in the span of a day. Was the farmer's son that important to them?

Zane wasn't going to let Glen off the hook that easily either. He was an adult now and no longer just his playmate from when they were children. Everyone had to protect their own pride within their circle. If Glen continued to be obstinate, then Zane wouldn't show him any mercy.

Meanwhile, Glen was well aware that he would be inviting a great misfortune upon himself if he made an enemy out of Neil, especially since his uncle, Frank, was currently the mayor of Perthter City. His face had turned as white as a sheet, and he was beginning to regret his impulsive words from before.

Just when the situation had plateaued into a stalemate, the sounds of footsteps echoed from beyond the door.

A group of formidable men entered the hall, led by a rotund man whose face shone greasily. The man was Gareth Yarbrough, the CEO of Dynasty Hotel, and he was currently ushering an important figure into the banquet hall.
