Chapter 32


    “I joined the army at fourteen, made the field division


    at seventeen, and was awarded the rank of junior


    lieutenant at twenty!” hissed Keegan. “Now, there are


    many officers under mymand! I’m not some


    small–time gangster! I’m a real, gun–wielding soldier


    who has killed before!”


    Keegan’s loud voice and imposing aura terrified


    everyone.


    Having said that, the scorn returned to Keegan’s face


    as he looked at Emmanuel. “Now, do you dare disy


    such arrogance before me?”


    Everyone assumed that Emmanuel was going to be


    quaking in his boots. However, nobody expected this


    gynecologist to look contemptuously at Keegan and


    retort, “Do you think it’s an honor to have killed before?”


    These words made Mni, Chase, and everyone else


    very anxious.


    After all, if a man said that he had killed before, he


    wasn’t fooling around. This was not a game of


    Werewolves!


    Is Emmanuel truly not afraid of being killed?


    Mni had changed her opinion of Emmanuel after


    seeing the way he behaved tonight. For one to be this


    arrogant, he is definitely a genius. However, I think he


    won’t live for long!


    There were already many people paying attention to


    themotion, but after the two exchanged barbs


    tit–for–tat, more and more people gathered around


    them.


    Lexi had also never imagined Ms. Mackenzie’s husband


    to be so plucky.


    No wonder I heard rumors that he’d managed to


    impress someone like Mr. Webber! However, he didn’t


    hesitate to pick a fight with Keegan to protect the


    woman behind him. I wonder what their rtionship is.


    If Ms. Mackenzie finds out about this, she’s going to be


    so angry!


    Right now, Keegan was extremely livid.


    Keegan was a well–known figure among the upper


    echelons of Yeringham and had a reputation for a hot


    temper and behaving impulsively. There had been


    many young heirs of these families who had gotten


    into conflicts with Keegan, only to be defeated by his


    fists.


    If even such rich and powerful people were afraid to


    take revenge on Keegan, what gave this poor nobody


    the audacity to pick a fight with Keegan?


    The whole situation was preposterous.


    Keegan wanted to pull out the gun from his waist in a


    fit of rage.


    “Keegan Doyle!” yelled Roselynn.


    When Roselynn saw what was about to unfurl, she


    hurriedly tried to put a stop to this. “I’m not your


    girlfriend or your woman! Why do you care who I’m


    speaking to? I don’t want to go elsewhere with you


    either!”


    Keegan was already angry and paid Roselynn no


    mind. As such, he continued to draw his gun.


    Emmanuel quickly shook off Keegan’s hand and


    pushed him away, putting some distance between


    them.


    Just as things were about to get heated, another voice


    was heard entering the fray. “What’s the meaning of


    this? Who dares cause a ruckus at the Quillen family’s


    banquet?”


    As soon as those words were spoken, an old man in a


    ck suit walked in quickly with the staff stationed


    on–site.


    The onlookers looked more and more excited.


    “I never expected Mr. Smith toe over personally.


    This is going to be such a treat!”


    “The Quillen family is the number one family in


    Yeringham. Mrs. Quillen was also promoted to deputy


    mayor! If the two of them dare to make trouble at her


    banquet, nobody is going to let things slide.”


    A group of women immediately began to gossip.


    Mni immediately leaned over and snorted derisively.


    “It’s best to drive out this gynecologist. An intrusion to


    this banquet by the likes of him serves only to cheapen


    the atmosphere!”


    When Keegan saw Adam, he immediately lowered his


    hand and tried to take control of the situation. “Mr.


    Smith, I am Keegan Doyle of the Doyle family. I


    assumed that tonight was meant to be an elegant


    affair. I never expected such unruly people to barge in.


    It’s really disappointing!”


    Adam was taken aback.


    The Doyle family was also quite powerful in Yeringham.


    Keegan’s mother was an official figure, so Adam dared


    not offend the Doyle family so easily. Humbly, Adam


    replied, “I’m truly sorry about this, Mr. Doyle. If someone


    managed to sneak in, it’s definitely negligence on our


    part. Please allow me to investigate this.”


    After this, Adam turned to face Emmanuel with an icy


    look. “Sir, please show me your invitation!”


    Roselynn immediately became nervous and retorted,

    “Why do you want Emmanuel to show you an invitation


    just because of one usation from Keegan? He’s not


    the organizer!”
