Stronger Every Time I Die
In contrast, Arthur remained perfectly calm. Seeing this, the others had no choice but to suppress their anger for the moment. Zane seethed at Arthur’s composed demeanour. The way Arthur looked at him, as if he were a mere clown was infuriating! "Arthur! You still refuse to show even a shred of remorse!" "You used Mr. Ivan mark without permission, forged a fake gemstone ring, and trespassed on someone else’s estate for your engagement banquet! Are you saying you don’t owe anyone an apology? Your crimes are unforgivable!" At this moment, Zane was desperate to hurl every insult he could muster at Arthur! Arthur’s composure was one thing, but the fact that the Gibson family weren’t reacting with outrage was what truly enraged him. He had expected Spencer to explode in anger upon learning he had been deceived. Instead, they remained steadfast. It was infuriating! Zane was now convinced that Arthur was indeed the CEO of Cloudia Corporation. If the Gibson family refused to cut ties with him, how could I continue to crush them?The Gibson family is my true target! Lately, Zane had sensed someone secretly investigating past events. He needed to act quickly and strike first, he had to push the Gibson family into the abyss before they could strike back. If he could get the government to remove Spencer completely, his troubles would be over! He had originally planned to use Stephen’s influence to dismantle Nancy company. But unexpectedly, Arthur had emerged as an obstacle! Arthur had ruined everything. Now, he would pay the price! Zane convinced himself that Arthur’s calmness was just an act of desperation, a last attempt to preserve his dignity. Well, I will make sure to shatter that dignity completely! He had expected Arthur to be speechless under his accusations, but to his shock, Arthur finally spoke. Standing tall on the stage, Arthur swept a cold gaze over Zane and his two sons, then over the crowd holding up their phones to record the scene. "Zane." The moment Arthur called his name, the Yarbrough family and the audience erupted in fury. "How dare you address my father by name! You’ve got some nerve!" "Who do you think you are to call my father by name!" "Not only do you refuse to apologize, but you have the audacity to disrespect Mr. Zane! This is unacceptable!""How did Ashley ever fall for someone like him?" "The Gibson family must be cursed to have taken him in!" Arthur looked at the enraged crowd, his voice cold and unyielding. "Hah. And you think people like you deserve my respect?" Zane nearly lost control!!! He had gone to such lengths to humiliate Arthur, yet Arthur still stood there, composed, unfazed, as if all of this was beneath him. What kind of attitude is that? What kind of look is that? He's looking at me like I'm a clown! That expression, that gazeit's as if he's some god standing above everyone, looking down on mere mortals! Arthur is looking down on me!I hate this feeling!Rage surges through me, so intense that I can barely hold onto my sanity.I grit my teeth, seething. I want nothing more than to tear Arthur apart! "Arthur! I am giving you one last chance! Don’t be foolish!" Stephen and Maris were just as livid. Stephen snapped, "Arthur! Your disgrace has been exposed, and you’ve dragged everyone here down with you! Not only do you refuse to apologize, but you’re acting arrogant? Do you think you can ignore us all" Maris added, "You not only owe an apology to everyone here, but you owe an apology to us! Just for your attitude, you need to kneel and knock your head three times before we’ll consider forgiving you!" "Forgiveness? Why would I need your forgiveness?" Arthur suddenly countered. "You!" Maris was rendered speechless with rage! Arthur!Always knew exactly how to push us to the edge of rage!Maris was beginning to believe Arthur was born just to make their lives miserable! "Arrogant! You’re beyond arrogant!" Stephen shouted, at a complete loss for words. Arthur ignored him and turned back to Zane. Lifting the emerald ring in his hand, he asked, "Zane, you claim this emerald is fake? Do you have proof? Did you bring an expert to verify it?" His sharp gaze locked onto Zane as he continued, "Because if you don’t, then what you’ve done constitutes defamation! And since you work for the government, you should know the legal consequences, shouldn’t you?" Heh, I deliberately let Zane escalate the situation. Now, it's time to close the trap.
