After hearing this, Fade frowned in puzzlement. "How can this be?"

"Matteo and I were quarreling about this earlier," Lily said furiously. "However, they refused to compromise and tried to threaten us instead. I don't know what to do now."

Hearing this, Fade was a little worried. He paused momentarily before replying, "Sister Lily, are you alone over there? Don't confront them head-on. Hold on, I'll be right over." "Alright, okay," Lily said.

"Sister Lily, please be careful. I'll arrive as soon as I can," Fade said. He asked for Lily's address and hung up the phone.

Fade called Lucas and asked him to look after Quin. Hurriedly putting on his coat, Fade left the room.

Half an hour later, Lily greeted Fade as he arrived at the double door in front of a private room in a hotel downtown.

As soon as Fade entered the private room, he saw a middle-aged man with a beer belly seated facing the door of the private room.

The man leaned back on the chair and was leisurely sipping on a glass of wine. Upon Fade's arrival, the man raised his eyebrows at him casually before he carried on drinking haughtily. Lily was about to lose her temper at the sight.

However, Fade stopped her before she erupted. He stepped forward, looking at the man, and said, "I presume you're Matteo Chen, then?"

Hearing Fade's voice, Matteo took a sip from the wine glass in his hand, savoring it with his eyes closed. After a while, he put down the glass of wine, looked at Fade, and asked, "Who are you?" Fade replied, "My name is Fade Chen. I'm the vice president of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc."

"Oh, vice president." Matteo Chen looked at Fade with a hint of surprise before he added nonchalantly, "Why are you here, vice president?"

Fade narrowed his eyes at Matteo. He uttered icily, "So, I heard that you want to terminate your cooperation with our Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc and give the exhibition booth to other companies. Tell me, is that true?"

Matteo glanced at Lily and then said lightly, "Yes, it's true. What of it?"

"What's wrong?" Fade was getting pissed off by Matteo's attitude. He glared at him and said, "Matteo, Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc had an agreement with your company. Are you sure you want to breach the contract?"

Matteo Chen couldn't care less about it. Instead, he crossed his legs, raised his eyebrows, and said, "So what if it's a breach of contract?"

Lily got enraged and shouted, "According to the contract, you'll have to compensate us by ten times the value of the contract. That's 20 million yuan!"

Although Matteo Chen's company was not small, it was not well known in the industry. The net worth of the company was around 50 to 60 million yuan. A compensation of 20 million could cause their company to go bankrupt.

However, Matteo remained calm and showed no signs of backing down. Instead, he said cockily, "Miss Wei, if you want to sue us, feel free to do so."

"You..." Lily was furious. She had not expected him to be so bold.

"By the way, Miss Wei, let me remind you. This is Jade City, a civilized place, hence it won't be easy for you to have your way with a lawsuit. Moreover, even if you manage to bring this to court, the case may even take several years to be closed."

"I'm a local here in Jade City, so it's no big deal for me. I really can't say the same for Miss Wei and

Mr. Chen. Do you have that much time to be traveling to Jade City?"

After that, Matteo picked up his glass and continued drinking.

Lily was so furious she was about to snap. Matteo was dragging them by the horns, making them dance to his tune.

Fade's expression hardened, and he stared at Matteo. After a moment, he suddenly asked, "Tell me, who is your benefactor?"

Hearing this, Matteo's expression changed, "Benefactor? What do you mean?"

Fade snorted, leaning over and slapping the glass off Matteo's hand in one swift motion.

The glass shattered, splashing the wine everywhere. Some droplets even made their way onto Matteo's clothes.

"What I'm trying to say is, small fry like you wouldn't have the guts to go against me. If you're so bold, there must be someone backing you up. Ask him to come out at once!"

Matteo did not expect Fade to be so direct with him, and he was momentarily stunned. He became furious and struggled to get his hands free from Fade's grip.

No matter how hard he tried, it was futile. Fade's grip was like a vise, restraining him and making it hard for him to move.

Matteo started panicking. His face was flushed red with anger, "This is Jade City. If you hit me, I will definitely sue you."

Fade said scornfully, "You can sue me as much as you like. As you just said, I'm not from Jade City. I won't be here for long. If you want to press charges, you will have to come over and sue me. I'll play along with you as much as you want."

"You..." Matteo did not expect his words to be used against himself.

His face ripened like a tomato as he became agitated.

At that moment, the door to the private room swung open and a group of people walked in. Arrogantly, they demanded, "Let go of my people."

Fade turned around at the sound of the voice and saw a young man in his twenties storming in with a group of bodyguards.

Fade squinted at the familiar face and said, "It's you!"

The man returned Fade's gaze fiercely and said, "Yes, it's me, Derick."

"Half a month ago, when you attacked me in Dragonville, you didn't see this coming, did you?" "This is Jade City, my territory. I call the shots here. I'm going to repay everything you've done to me in Dragonville." Derick glared at Fade and added fiercely.

Fade gazed at Derick and recounted the incident half a month ago.

That day, Derick was looking for an ambassador for his company. He became interested in Winnie and invited her out to discuss his business proposal. In the bar, he wanted to take advantage of Winnie. Luckily, Fade was there and taught him a lesson.

He made a fool out of the Li family and Derick could only return to Jade City as a disgrace.

Now, Fade was in Jade City. When Derrick found out, he started plotting his revenge, leading up to the incident that day.
