Prince paled at Conrad’s words.
Not out of fear, but infuriation.
Due to the huge difference in status between the two, Prince had never considered Conrad a threat.
He meant it when he said that Conrad was merely Fabian’s dog, as he truly saw Conrad as nothing more than a dog that could speak the human language.
This was also why Prince acted as arrogant as he did with people who were below him in terms of identity and status.
His disrespect for Conrad was the reason why Prince was so furious when he realized that Conrad had played him like a fool.
“Son of a b*tch! I’ll kill you for this!”
Prince shouted and raised his fist to punch Conrad. Conrad had already learned of Prince’s mad dog like aggression and was prepared this time.
The man took half a step backward and moved out of the way.
No one knew if it was coincidental or intentional, but Conrad moving out of the way put Henry right in the path of Prince’s fist.
Henry, who had been in a horrible mood since Prince set him up more than a week ago, was already itchy with the desire to fight since they made their way over.
Hence, when Henry saw Prince’s fist coming toward him, he did not care if it was a misunderstanding or not as he grabbed Prince’s wrist backhandedly. Before the man would yelp, Henry raised his foot to kick him in the stomach.
Prince was a young master whose body had long been hollowed out by alcohol and sex. The man was no match for a powerful trust-fund child like Henry who constantly trained his body and even picked up a few tricks from Julian. This kick landed on Prince’s stomach solidly.
Everyone watched as Prince widened his eyes and curled over like a cooked prawn. The man opened his mouth but no sound came out. His expression was extremely pained and twisted.
“Did that feel good, motherf*cker?”
Henry barked out a wretched smile and raised his hand to grab Prince’s collar. The former’s eyes shone fiercely.
“White… White Glove! How dare you f*cking stand dare and watch him kill me?” Prince suppressed the pain in his stomach and shouted.
Once he finished speaking, the figure of a middle aged man appeared by his side.
White Glove raised his hand to grab Henry’s hand which was on Prince’s collar.
Everything happened in a flash.
Before Jasper and Henry could react, Julian first grabbed White Glove’s wrist and stopped the man. Julian appeared beside Henry in a flash and reached out to meet White Glove’s pahn mid-air.
The two parried each other’s blows seven times in the blink of an eye.
Both Julian and White Glove had backed down at the same time once Jasper and Henry realized what was going on.
White Glove remained unmoving while Julian had a slight sway in his stance. It seemed like the latter had lost slightly.
However, White Glove did not manage to get Prince out. This fight had ended with a draw.
White Glove looked at Julian intently and said, “You’re rather skilled, young man.”
Julian did not say anything as he glared daggers at White Glove while oozing with fighting spirit.
Henry jumped once he realized what happened. He grabbed Prince’s collar with one hand and raised the other to slap Prince’s face.
“Motherf*cker! Trying to scare me with dogs, are you?” Prince was impatient and angry after taking an unwarranted slap. He felt both wronged and mistreated.
“Mr. Law, perhaps you could listen to a servant’s words? Since you’ve come to solve a problem, then how about we solve the issue first? Fighting would not help the situation at all.”
White Glove seemed to recognize Henry and said to the man.
Henry scoffed and replied, “Who are you? If you know that you’re just a servant then why are you speaking now? Is this the place for you to talk?”
Prince finally realized the situation he was in.
He had lost this round.
However, his loss that he merely needed to pay the price and leave. It would be pointless to also be beaten up by Henry.
After coming to that conclusion, Prince quickly said, “Look, Henry. You wouldn’t dare kill me. Even if you did, you’d only be in deep trouble.”
“You win this time and I’ll just pay whatever price you want me to pay! But if you beat me up, then I’ll do everything to fight back!”
Henry looked at Prince icily and sneered. “You still think you’re in the position to negotiate terms with me, idiot?” Henry then held Prince down and beat him up.
Prince shouted raspily in pain. He wanted to fight back but he was no match against Henry. He could not even evade the other’s attacks.
White Glove frowned slightly and wanted to make a move but Julian was currently staring down at the man. The current situation was clear. Prince and Henry would deal with their own issue and no one else would interfere.
If White Glove wanted to get involved, Julian would not just stand by and watch either.
Thankfully, Henry did not lose his rationale. While he was beating Prince up, his attacks went no further than a few slaps and perhaps a few kicks. Most of the attacks were focused on the man’s limbs; his thighs and arms. It might hurt a lot, but it posed no danger to Prince’s life.
The beating lasted for another few more minutes before Henry panted and kicked Prince one last time on the ground. Pointing at the man, Henry scolded, “I’ve officially got beef with you now, you hear me, stupid f*cker? This beating is revenge for setting me up, but this doesn’t mean I’m letting you go.”
“You better walk the other way next time you see me, or I’ll beat you up every time I see you!”
“Think twice about whether you can afford to suffer the consequences before you try to plot against me again.”
“I’ll give you one word of advice today. Next time, you’d kill me in one go, or I’ll beat you to death for it!”
At this moment, Prince looked absolutely embarrassing as he laid on the floor bruised and battered.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and stared at Henry with utter hatred. He clenched his teeth as the internal anger and resentment he felt filled him with the urge to eat Henry alive.
However, the man’s last remaining shred of logic stopped him from saying anything harsh.
Prince himself knew that saying something rude would only lead to him getting another heating from Henry.
Prince rose to his feet with great difficulty and grit his teeth. “Fine, then. You people are cruel!
“But the future is unknown. Just you wait!”
Prince then limped away, intending to return to the room.
“Did you forget, Your Highness? That the three listed companies under your name don’t belong to you anymore?”
Jasper’s words had Prince’s expression paling immediately.
