Chapter 3780
“Enough! Do you think you have the right to speak here?” Dane exclaimed, taking a step forward.
“Where are your manners?”
“Did you forget everything I’ve taught you?”
“Leader Torres wouldn’t dare fight us for the Heavenly Box if we just say so!”
“However, you don’t have to say it like that!”
“How is Leader Torres going to feel about this?!”
“You’ll reflect on this when we get back!”
After scolding the secretary, Dane looked at Colton with a small smile.
“Sorry, Colton. My secretary’s just a little too straightforward. Please don’t mind her!”
He then glared coldly at the secretary.
“Are you still not apologizing?”
The secretary crossed her arms after hearing those words.
“I’m so sorry, Leader Torres.”
“It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.”
“It’s not your fault you weren’t taught well. A filthy mouth can’t utter decent words, after all.
“Of course you wouldn’t know how to behave when you’ve been living in the gutter your entire life.”
Colton’s face was expressionless; he was completely calm.
After sitting in such an important position for so many years, he naturally wouldn’t be scared by a few words.
“I haven’t been working recently, causing our people from outside to suffer. Sure, I need to reflect on that situation...”
“But that shouldn’t stop me from eating, should it?”
“Since I’m taking the Heavenly Box, I won’t let anyone else have it, even if it’s that person from the Golden Palace.”
Colton smiled faintly at Dean.
“I suggest you find another box.”
Naturally, Colton knew this wasn’t just a simple meal; this was in truth a fight for authority.
If he let Dean have his way, his title as the nominal leader would be a joke within the Martial Arts Alliance.
“Why are you still acting like a child? You’re an old man now.”
“Don’t you understand that there are priorities here?”
Dean smiled back, unperturbed.
“My mission today is to treat Prince Osborne.”
“You should know that he has a good relationship with India’s royal family.”
“With him here, maybe he can negotiate with the royal family and calm the four great Martial Arts Alliances as well.”
“This guest here might just decide Country H’s fate.”
“Well? Are you still going to make me find another box?”
“If we offend Prince Osborne today and he decides not to help, our Martial Arts Alliance will burn.”
“Should I be the one taking responsibility for the situation? Or should you be the one doing it instead?”
“Can you do that?”
“Rather, do you have what it takes to resolve the matter and push the four great Martial Arts Alliance away, reopen the Budokans
we have abroad, and compensate for the country’s losses?”
Dean instantly shifted all the blame to Colton.
At the same time, he looked at Harvey with a small smile.
Naturally, he already knew all about Harvey; he was just keeping quiet about it for the time being.
He was patiently waiting to have a word with Harvey too.
Harvey smiled wordlessly; no matter what, it’d be better if he didn’t do what his enemies wanted.
“It’s just a meal, Dean. Are you grilling me for this?”
Colton’s eyes were cold.
