Chapter 32 Scary Threa


    Farris was satisfied after Ste got fired. She moved away from the counter and he ignored her. He


    slowly walked to Horace''s side and said in a surprised tone, "Ah! It''s you, young man. What a


    coincidence. We have been bumping into each other in different ces recently. I sense a pattern here.


    Anyway, tell me what you want to buy. I''ll treat you today just to celebrate our budding friendship."


    "Well..." Horaceughed inwardly when he saw the surprised expression on Farris''s face. He never


    expected that such a powerful man would be so good at acting. People who didn''t know that they knew


    each other would think they just asionally met coincidentally. Horace matched Farris''s energy by


    pretending to be surprised.


    With a friendly countenance, he said, "Hello, Mr. Rivera. Nice to meet you again. Thank you for your


    kindness, but I can afford to buy what I want."


    "Ha-ha! Since I have already offered to pay, don''t refuse my offer. Take it as a gift from a friend," Farris


    said and chuckled. Afterward, he looked at Davina and asked, "Hey, youngdy. What did this young


    man want to buy? Tell me."


    "What?" Davina was stunned when she heard Farris''s question. She was still in a daze because of


    what happened a while ago. What shocked her the most was the way Ste cowered in the presence


    of Farris. Her colleague had always bullied her, so she saw her as a terrible woman. Since Farris made


    Ste behave like an obedient bunny, Davina guessed how horrible he was.


    It would be good if she didn''t tremble after such a dangerous person spoke to her.


    After a while, Davina came to her senses and stammered, "Mr. Rivera, just now... this... young man


    asked me to show him the most expensive cake here. Is there something I can do for you?"


    "It isn''t a mere coincidence that I met this young man here at this time. What kinds of best cakes do


    you have? Now I want you to make one of each kind for this young man." Farris waved his hand


    generously as he made the order.


    "Okay, Mr. Rivera," Davina readily agreed with a nod.


    In Farris''s case, no one dared to check if he had money to pay for the cake. If anyone dared, they


    would be stepping on his toes.


    Horace admired Farris for stepping in. He was so thoughtful. Not only did he pre-order different cakes


    for him, but he also prevented him from losing face here. Things would have been worse if Farris hadn''t


    Davina took out a pen and notepad. "Hello, sir, please leave your contact information, address, and the


    day you would like the cake to be delivered. We will deliver it on time for free."


    "La, it''s your birthday cake. I''ll celebrate with you on that day. Which restaurant would you like in


    Rinas? I will make a reservation for you. If you can''t make a choice, then let''s just celebrate in the Sea


    Pavilion!" Horace looked at La and asked softly.


    "Well... Horace, how about we make a reservation with a cheap restaurant?" As La spoke, she shook


    her head in disagreement.


    Horace''s suggestion of the Sea Pavilion had taken her by surprise. As far as she was concerned, that


    ce was out of the question. She worked there part-time, so she knew it was very expensive.


    A simple dinner for three people in the Sea Pavilion cost a minimum of three thousand dors. This


    meant that the average cost for a person''s single meal would be at least one thousand dors.


    Horace argued immediately. "La, I don''t like your suggestion. Your birthday is special, so we can''t


    celebrate it in an ordinary restaurant. Let''s just have it at the Sea Pavilion."


    Ste was standing in a corner when she heard Horace speaking with so much confidence. She burst


    intoughter and remarked, "Look at this guy. Why are you pretending to be rich? How dare you say


    you would go to the Sea Pavilion? I hate to burst your bubble, but I''m sure you can''t even get past the


    security at the gate. They don''t allow people like you in."


    "Humph! Do you think the employees in the Sea Pavilion are mean like you? They are well-trained and


    respectful. You are not worthy to bepared to them at all. It would be a big insult."


    Horace had no respect for Ste even though she was, until a few moments ago, an attendant here. He


    had worked as an attendant before, so he knew the ins and outs of this service. Ste had gone


    against the rules by looking down on him and La for a long time.


    Horace wouldn''t be this angry if she had only mocked him. But she crossed the line by humiliating


    La. He couldn''t tolerate anyone that hurt his one true friend.


    For this reason, he put Ste in her ce.


    "Ha-ha! You talk as if you have ever been there, poor loser!"


    Ste was unrelenting. Since she had nothing to lose, she wasn''t afraid of anything, not even Horace.


    She continued to do what had made her lose her job in the first ce.


    A hot p suddenlynded on Ste''s face. Farris then stood in front of her.


    He had walked towards her the moment she began to ridicule Horace again.


    Ste had focused all her attention on Horace, so she didn''t see Farris approaching her. Repeating the


    insult, poor loser, was thest straw that broke the camel''s back.


    Farris had exerted great strength in the p. Ste held her cheek and looked at him in horror. She


    stammered, "You..." She was about to shout at him, but she suddenly remembered that this man was


    superior to her boss. She swallowed her words.


    At this moment, Farris said angrily, "Are you nuts? Didn''t you just get sacked for your bad behavior?


    More so, I just said that this young man is my friend. How dare you insult him again? You are a woman,


    but I don''t show anyone mercy. Gender doesn''t matter to me. Do you know who I am? I''m Farris


    Rivera. If you get me angry, I will sell you to a human trafficker in a remote vige. Do you know I can


    do that?"


    "What?" Ste''s eyes widened and she shivered when she heard Farris''s name. She sank to her knees


    the next second. She didn''t expect that the Mr. Rivera her boss had brought here was the most


    dangerous man in Rinas. She finally managed to stammer in fear, "Mr. Rivera, please forgive me. I''m


    sorry. Please let me go. I will do anything you ask of me. Please don''t sell me to a human trafficker in a


    remote vige!"


    "Tsk, tsk, tsk!" Like the gangster that he was, Farris put one hand in his pocket and rubbed his chin with


    the other. He looked at Ste carefully and said, "You have a pretty face and a good figure. I can sell


    you for a good price!"


    "Ah! Please don''t sell me, Mr. Rivera. I''m sorry. Please forgive me!"

    "Saying sorry to me ispletely useless!" Farris nced at her with a wicked smirk. This sent a


    shiver down her spine. She moved backward involuntarily. Now she wished the ground would open up


    and swallow her. It was better than being enved.


    It wasn''t until she looked at Horace that she understood what Farris meant. She groveled to Horace''s


    feet and apologized, "I''m sorry, sir. I have realized my mistakes. This will never repeat itself. Please let


    me go!"
