Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The atmosphere in the bar instantly ignited, with patrons’ hormones surging, letting out a roar like a tidal wave!
Downing twenty-four bottles in one go, it was simply like a Wine God had descended!
Sonny Ridge fixed his gaze on those empty bottles on the table, his pupils suddenly contracting.
“Quiet!”
His face ashen, he shouted, and the noisy bar instantly fell silent.
Everyone turned their attention to him, losing ten million in the drinking challenge—no one dared to upset Ridge while he was fuming.
“What’s the matter, bro? You can’t afford to lose?”
Julius Reed slowly turned around, expressionless, “With so many people watching today, do you want to tarnish Black Wind Bar’s reputation?” Upon hearing this, Ridge’s heart suddenly tightened.
The Black Wind Bar drew in so many patrons partly because it was safe.
Secondly, because the bar’s reputation was solid—no one dared to default on their debts here.
If Ridge, as the bar owner, were to start weaseling out, Black Wind Bar’s reputation would certainly hit rock bottom, with losses beyond estimation.
If such an incident occurred, the Three Blade Group would inevitably pursue it! Ridge was pocketing tens of millions each year from the bar; if he were punished by the Group for this incident and lost this inco, it wasn’t sure if Maurice Yarrow would even let him live.
All eyes were on him, eager to see how this nominal bar owner would solve the issue.
“You cheated!”
Ridge gritted his teeth and said, word by word.
He did not believe that Julius could have finished all that liquor in such a short ti!
Twenty-four bottles, 500ml each—that’s 12 liters!
A normal person’s stomach isn’t that large, and alcohol, unlike water, even contains gas.
But looking at how flat Julius’s stomach was, who would think he had been drinking?
“Oh? With so many people watching, you’re accusing of cheating?” Julius’s gaze was piercing as he stared right into Ridge’s eyes.
“This…
Ridge was at a loss for words.
If he didn’t let Julius leave, Black Wind Bar’s reputation would be utterly ruined.
But if he let Julius walk away just like that, the loss of ten million was minor compared to the blow to his pride!
“Let’s change it up. Let’s fight it out. Do you dare?”
With that thought, Ridge steeled his heart.
He was confident in his abilities; looking at his opponent’s weak appearance, he was sure to win in a fight!
“What a sight to see today! I’ve been hanging around bars for decades and never expected to witness such a powerful showdown!”
“This kid hasn’t lost yet today! Taking ten million from Sonny Ridge is enough to cause a sensation in Gonzalez City!”
“Guess who will win this ti?”
While everyone was buzzing with anticipation, Julius shook his head and said, “Haven’t you heard the saying ‘quit while you’re ahead’? I’ve made so much money now; why should I agree to you?”
Ridge’s face darkened, his fists clenched tight.
Never mind that he was the bar’s nominal owner; just being the Deputy Manager of the Gonzalez City branch of the Three Blade Group, no one dared to talk to him like that!
If he let Julius go just like that, he would be utterly humiliated!
But if he didn’t let Julius go, the damage to Black Wind Bar’s reputation was incalculable!
The patrons held their breath, eager to see how Ridge would resolve the matter.
“If you want to stay, you have to co up with a bet that intrigues !”
Julius smiled faintly, “Otherwise, I might just leave.”
“What would it take for you to fight ?”
Ridge asked, already deciding he would agree to whatever Julius demanded.
Ridge was very confident in his fighting skills! Last ti, he was just careless!
“Then I’ll take both your hands; I don’t like impolite people much. Plus fifty million in cash—if you win, I’ll pay double.”
Julius raised his eyebrows, looking at Ridge with a mocking smile.
If the Three Blade Group dared to make trouble for him, he wouldn’t mind giving them a big surprise.
Within half a day, the news would spread throughout Five-river Province with people from all sectors in Black Wind Bar.
It was like making a statent to deter others from troubling him again. “Young fellow, what do you an by this?”
Sonny Ridge’s eyes narrowed, and a murderous aura emanated from him.
The people behind him also crowded forward with unfriendly expressions.
The atmosphere beca awkward, and the air was filled with the strong scent of gunpowder.
“I’m not forcing you. If you can’t accept it, then I bid you farewell!”
Julius Reed chuckled lightly and turned to leave.
“Wait! I’ll fight you!”
After an inner struggle, Sonny Ridge’s anger overca his reason.
“In front of all these people, don’t you dare go back on your word!”
Sonny Ridge was very confident in his skills, and he couldn’t just watch as the other party took ten million from him.
Not only would this disgrace the reputation of the Three Blade Group, but he would also beco a laughingstock.
But if he could win back the money and cripple the other party’s legs and feet, his fa in Gonzalez City would surely spread.
However, what he didn’t know was that standing by Julius Reed’s side was Aron Jackson, who Maurice Yarrow regarded as a formidable opponent!
“So you really want to fight? Since you’re courting death, I don’t mind obliging you.”
At this point, Sonny Ridge simply shed his mask and looked at Julius Reed coldly.
This young man was too ignorant of his boundaries and didn’t know how to behave properly.
“If you lose, you won’t renege, will you?”
Julius Reed eyed the people from the Three Blade Group inside the bar, his face deliberately showing a hint of worry.
“When I, Sonny Ridge, spit, it’s as solid as a nail! In this line of work, honor is everything! ”
Sonny Ridge patted his chest and shouted in front of everyone, “Brothers, I ask you all to bear witness today!”
“Alright!”
“Manager Ridge is powerful and domineering!”
The guests let out sharp screams, so even blew whistles.
They knew this showdown would be a tale told in Gonzalez City for at least five years.
If Sonny Ridge won, not only would he uphold the reputation of the Three Blade Group by subduing Black Wind Bar and crushing a ruffian, but his prestige would also greatly increase within the group and throughout Gonzalez
City.
If Julius Reed luckily won, these people didn’t dare to imagine.
Would the Three Blade Group really let their manager be beaten with broken hands?
And given that Julius Reed’s background didn’t seem simple, what kind of sparks would the clash ignite?
“Fair enough! Then let’s decide the outco with one fight!”
Julius Reed walked to an open area and stretched out his hand, “Since this is your turf, you go first!”
“Good! You’re indeed a straightforward man!”
Sonny Ridge narrowed his eyes and strode over.
The two n seed to be chatting rrily, but Dominating Tiger was sweating bullets behind them.
Breaking the arms of the deputy manager of the Gonzalez City branch on the Three Blade Group’s turf was just too thrilling!
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and slid his hand into his jacket pocket.
Inside, there was a derringer.
“I hope you keep your promise!”
In the bar, Sonny Ridge’s eyes narrowed, and he suddenly made his move!
“You lose.”
This ti Sonny Ridge wasn’t complacent; he unleashed his killer move right away!
If you want to die, so be it!
A cold sneer crossed Sonny Ridge’s mind as the people from the Three Blade Group slowly closed in.
Bang!
Julius Reed didn’t move from his spot and threw a hard punch, sending Sonny Ridge flying backward!
“Revenge!”
The people from the Three Blade Group roared and sward in an instant.
“What are you doing!”
Dominating Tiger quickly stepped in front of them.
The very thing he had feared the most had indeed happened..
