Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1780
Opposite Fade, the group of rich playboys looked grim and their expressions contorted.
Anatasia, who had been preparing to ridicule Fade, could only shut her mouth, not daring to utter a word.
After a short silence, the ringleader, Yaakov, stood forward and spoke, "Mr. Chen, you're really well connected. You even have connections with Li Group of Jade City. That really surprised me!"
Fade looked at him and replied rudely, "If that's all it takes to surprise you, then there's still a lot more surprises waiting for you, Mr. Hsiang."
"Really?" Yaakov narrowed his eyes and stared at Fade for a few seconds before saying, "The Hsiang family doesn't have many achievements in the business world, and we aren't proficient in this field, so I won't talk to you about business today."
His words were self-effacement. Although the Hsiang family didn't stand out in the business world, Old Master Hsiang's status was evident. He had a wide range of connections and had even stronger martial arts prowess to back them up. All these factors allowed the Hsiang family to have an influential position in East Coast City.
Perhaps their influence was even higher than a business family such as the Qin family.
One could say that the Hsiang family wasn't the leader in the business world of East Coast, not because they didn't have the ability, but because they didn't want to do so. If the Hsiang family wished for it, it would be like taking candy from a baby to achieve performance in that industry.
For a moment, all the businessmen agreed and flattered him.
Fade wasn't bothered as he just looked at Yaakov, saying, "If we aren't talking about business, I think we have nothing more to talk about."
With that, he turned around and was about to walk away with his wineglass.
However, Yaakov called out after him, "Mr. Chen, wait a minute."
"Why? Is there anything you want?" Fade turned around to look at him.
Yaakov knew that he could no longer keep the suspense and his gaze darkened, "I don't want to talk about business because I want to speak to you about my brother, Daemyn."
"Daemyn Hsiang!" He was mentioned as expected. Fade wasn't surprised as he showed no emotions on his face, "What do you want to talk about?"
Yaakov's expression darkened, and rage flashed across his face when he saw Fade's indifferent expression. It was as if he didn't care about his younger brother's death at all. He then asked, "I want to know, how did my brother die?"
As soon as he finished his words, everyone on the scene fell silent.
Daemyn's death has caused quite an uproar and discussion throughout East Coast City. After all, he was the second young master of the Hsiang family.
Among them were various rumours regarding Daemyn's death, but no one knew what exactly happened. Now that Yaakov was confronting Fade, everyone realized that his death had something to do with him. For a moment, the way everyone looked at Fade changed again, and whispers of heated discussions could be heard everywhere.
"Who is this Fade? To think that he had something to do with Daemyn's death."
"Now that he has totally offended the Hsiang family, it'll be troubling for him."
"That's right. Their conflict with the Qin family can only be considered business-related. They can still overcome difficulties with the support of Li Group, but for a conflict with the Hsiang family, even Li Group can't intervene this time."
"He's done for this time. He's doomed."
At this moment, Hiro, Evelyn, Houston and the rest of their rich friends looked at Fade tauntingly and coldly. It was as if they already saw the scene of Yaakov teaching him a lesson.
However, Fade wasn't a bit frightened by Yaakov's query. In fact, his expression was calm as he spoke softly, "Your brother was killed by a villain at Twin- dragon Village. The military should have informed you. Doesn't the Hsiang family know?"
Yaakov glowered at him and spoke in a deep voice, "Of course, the Hsiang family received a notice from the military, but this reason can't convince us."
"If you aren't convinced, then that's your problem. Go look for the military. What has it got to do with me?" Fade answered rudely.
When Yaakov saw his attitude, he became angrier. Suppressing his rage, he growled, "What has it got to do with you? According to sources, you caused Daemyn's death, and you're still asking what has it got to do with you!"
"I caused it! What a joke. What makes you say that?" Fade retorted coldly.
Yaakov then took a look at Evelyn. She immediately sprung up and looked at him, "Fade Chen, many of us were at the scene, and we saw what happened. Are you still trying to hide the truth?"
"At that time, the enemy was already defeated, and the last one attacked Daemyn. You had the ability to defeat him, but you let him attack and kill Daemyn before you charged towards him. We can totally say that Daemyn's death was caused by you turning a blind eye," Evelyn exclaimed loudly.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone at the scene looked appalled. They didn't expect this to be the cause of Daemyn's death.
At this moment, Yaakov's eyes were full of fury. He glared fiercely at Fade and shouted, "Now, what do you have to say?"
When he heard this, Fade couldn't help but sneer, "Do I have anything to say? Why should I have anything to say?"
"Excluding the fact that particular critical situation at Twin-dragon Village was caused by Daemyn's actions and not to mention whether I still had remaining strength to defeat the enemies, even if that was the case, so what?"
"Don't tell me that it's my fault if I didn't save a member of the Hsiang family?" Fade replied fiercely. His eyes glowered at Yaakov as he asked him loudly, "Yaakov, you're from the military, and I guess that you have undertaken missions." "Then let me ask you. When you were on missions, and your comrades sacrificed themselves, did you save them?"
"I..." Yaakov was at a loss for words.
Fade continued coldly, "If you didn't, then can I say that you caused your comrades death and that you have to compensate with your life." "You're being unreasonable!" Yaakov shouted.
Fade replied coldly, "I'm being unreasonable? Aren't you, Yaakov Hsiang, being unreasonable? Or can I say that the lives of Hsiang family members are precious, but the lives of others don't mean a thing?" Yaakov was so mad that his face flushed red. He clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles cracked, but he couldn't retort Fade.
At this moment, Houston spoke coldly, "Mr. Hsiang, you don't have to quarrel with him. Since he admitted to causing Daemyn's death, he has to pay the price."
Upon hearing this, Yaakov's face changed rapidly, and his expression regained its calmness and coldness. He looked straight at Fade and shouted coldly, "I won't quarrel with you. You're indeed responsible for Daemyn's death, and you have to pay the price." "Haha, when you don't make sense, you start using force." Fade laughed coldly, and his face darkened. He glared right at Yaakov and spoke with his voice cold, "Price? I would like to see what price the Hsiang family demands of me."
As he spoke, Fade's positive energy burst out in a great momentum.
