Thud!
The sound of two heavy kneels echoed in everyone's ears, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets in disbelief.
They were kneeling!
And it was Roy and Xenon, the two notorious scoundrels, kneeling in front of Tacito.
This...
Everyone was in disbelief, especially Rajesh.
His face, once filled with pleasure and sneers, was now frozen in shock, disbelief clearly written all over his face as he turned towards Roy, hurriedly saying,
"Mas...Master, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling to this loser?"
"Get up quickly. He crashed your car, aren't we here to deal with this bastard?"
Fear and shock were evident in Rajesh's voice.
For some reason!
At this moment, a strong sense of unease and fear arose in his heart, as if he had misunderstood something of great significance.
And it wasn't just Rajesh.
Upon seeing the two notorious figures kneel before Tacito, the crowd was abuzz.
Even Rylee couldn't believe what she was seeing.
She quickly stepped forward, addressing the two men on the ground,
"Gentlemen, what are you doing? This guy is nothing but a useless son-in-law, how can he accept your act of reverence?"
Rylee couldn't accept what was happening before her eyes.
However, just as she was about to help Roy up,
Slap!
A loud slap echoed throughout the hall.
Rylee stumbled back, almost falling to the ground.
A bright red handprint appeared on her face.
Shock!
Fear!
Rylee couldn't believe that Roy would slap her when she was only trying to help.
"Nash... Mr. Nash, you..."
Rylee looked at Roy in shock.
However, the look in Roy's eyes at this moment was as if he wanted to devour her.
"Damn it! Shut up! Mr. Temple's name is not something that trash like you can tarnish!"
What!
Mr. Temple?
Rajesh, Bella, and everyone else was taken aback. Mr. Nash was actually defending Tacito.
However, the shock had just begun.
After scolding Rylee, Roy and Xenon, like two beaten dogs, knelt at the feet of Tacito, pleading,
"Temple... Mr. Temple, I, Roy, was too impulsive and offended you. Please, be generous and forgive me!"
"Mr. Temple, I, Xenon, know my mistake. Please, beg my father not to kill me! I... I don't want to die!"
Fear was evident in their voices.
It was as if they were not kneeling to a person, but to a devil.
Hush!
When these two sentences echoed, the people in the hall were even more shocked.
A sense of horror and disbelief appeared on everyone's faces.
"What... what's happening? Wasn't it Tacito who crashed the two young masters' car? Why are they now begging Tacito for forgiveness?"
"My God! What does Xenon mean by asking his father not to kill him? Could it be that Tacito knows the president?"
"What on earth did Tacito do to make the two young masters so fearful?"
"..."
The sound of frantic discussion echoed continuously in the hall.
When these discussions reached Bella's ears, she shivered. It was only then that she woke up from the shocking scene before her.
"Am... am I dreaming?"
Bella was completely stunned.
She had thought that she and Tacito were finished, but she could never have imagined such an unbelievable scene would unfold.
She turned to look at Tacito, as if hearing his previous words echoing in her ears.
"Don't worry, I'm here!"
Could it be that he knew the intentions of the two young masters all along?
But how did he do it?
Silence!
At this moment, the discussion gradually died down, and everyone looked at Tacito as if they had seen a ghost.
"Are you sure you know your mistakes?" Tacito's eyes were filled with amusement and coldness.
When his gaze fell on Roy and Xenon, it made them feel as if they were being stared at by a ferocious beast, giving them goosebumps.
"We... we know our mistakes!"
"Mr. Temple, please forgive us!"
The two of them lowered their heads even further, almost prostrating on the ground.
It was only then!
Tacito nodded slightly,
"Remember, there won't be a next time!"
With that one sentence, Roy and Xenon felt as if they had received a pardon, their hearts that had been hanging in the air finally settled down, filled with joy.
They knew that Tacito had forgiven them.
So they wouldn't be expelled from the family, nor would they become discarded sons.
Immediately, the two of them knocked their heads like pounding garlic, gratefully saying,
"Mr. Temple, rest assured, from today onwards, I, Roy, will turn over a new leaf and follow your lead!"
"Mr. Temple, you are generous. From today onwards, I, Xenon, will be your follower!"
The two scoundrels were not fools.
Although they didn't know Tacito's real identity, just by hearing the terror in their fathers' voices, they knew that Tacito must have an unimaginable background.
And such a person, how could they not cling to his coattails!
In an instant!
The two notorious figures that made all of Jackville City turn pale, had become Tacito's followers.
This scene was absurd and strange!
Rajesh, Rylee, and the others were all in a daze, as if they were dreaming.
Thud!
Rajesh fell to the ground, his face pale.
It was over!
He finally understood that the person who was really finished was... himself!
"Rajesh!"
At this moment, after Roy stood up, he respectfully stood behind Tacito, then said coldly,
"Earlier, I told you to take care of Mr. Temple, and that I would come to apologize immediately. But I didn't expect that you would be so blind!"
"Starting from today, you are fired! Not only from the Geralt Group, but you will also be blacklisted by all the corporations in Jackville City!"
Boom!
With that one sentence, Rajesh felt as if his soul had left his body!
He was finished.
"No!!!"
Rajesh was practically going mad. He had thought that his position as general manager was secured, but he never thought that he would lose his job and be blacklisted by the Jackville Group, making it impossible for him to make a comeback.
His eyes were bloodshot, like a madman, he shouted at Roy,
"Roy, you can't do this! Do you know what this kid has done?"
"He stole the Skeleton Emperor Card from a VIP client of the Prosperous Age Club! The people from the Prosperous Age Club will soon find out, and then he will have nowhere to be buried!"
"You can't fire me because of him!"
What!
Stole the Skeleton Emperor Card?
Rajesh's words shocked both Roy and Xenon.
They had heard about the mysterious Skeleton Card that was jointly produced by the Prosperous Age Club, the Geralt Group, and some other powerful companies.
As long as one possesses that card, one can enjoy unlimited consumption in all stores and clubs under the Prosperous Age and Dragon banners, all for free.
To enjoy the treatment of an emperor!
But!
As far as they knew, there was only one of those cards in the whole world, and it was in the hands of a super boss who was so mysterious it was unimaginable.
Moreover, they had heard from their father.
That super boss could wipe out all the tycoons in Jackville City with just one finger.
And now...
"Temple... Mr. Temple, did you really steal that card?"
Roy swallowed hard, his voice even trembling.
On the side, Xenon was so nervous that he couldn't breathe.
But!
Tacito seemed not to care at all, and simply nodded,
"That card is with me!"
Boom!
That one sentence almost scared Roy and Xenon to pee their pants.
They were finished!
They could be sure that no matter what background Mr. Temple had, once he stole the card from that super boss, not only would Tacito be finished, but they would also be completely implicated.
At this moment, the two notorious figures were dripping cold sweat from their foreheads.
Seeing this!
Rajesh felt that his chance had come, and hurriedly continued to incite,
"Roy, hurry up and arrest him! As long as we hand him over to the Prosperous Age Club and explain the reason, we will earn the gratitude of the Prosperous Age Club and Sister Blood Rose!"
"Sacrifice a useless son-in-law to gain the gratitude of the Prosperous Age! It's definitely worth it!"
Rajesh saw the hesitation of the two young masters, and his heart became more and more excited.
But just then!
"Is that so?"
A voice as deep as a bell rang out.
Then everyone saw a group of men in suits coming out from all directions of the club.
Ten men!
Thirty!
Fifty!
In the blink of an eye, it was a sea of people.
Especially the man at the front, who was the number one warrior under Blood Rose - Black Tiger!
Known as, Mr. Tygo!
