Chapter 220 - Not Backing Down



Chapter 220: Not Backing Down

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Anyone that Jerry Wood invited was on the same level. For those who didn’t want to turn up, they’d send their children here.

However, there was definitely nobody of a much lower status.

Of course, there was no way Jerry Wood would invite someone who Nathan Smith could easily bully.

“Please show me your invitation.” As expected, the security officer immediately asked the pair for their invitations after seeing the video.

While everyone would usually try not to kick up a fuss at Jerry Wood’s party, he couldn’t be sure.?‘What if someone really sneaked in? That’d be my fault! I can’t take this risk!’

“I forgot to bring it,” Finn Taylor said casually.?‘I do have an invitation, but is it necessary? Is Jerry Wood going to refuse me entry at the door because I don’t have an invitation?’

“Brother, I’m warning you not to get involved. That woman is seeking death, so don’t you try to stand up for her.”

It wasn’t the first time Lucy Lawrence was stirring up trouble for Finn Taylor. Now, the latter was incensed.

Given his personality, he wouldn’t let her off easily. It was a foolish decision for that security officer to step in.

“Don’t try to act friendly with me. Do you have an invitation or not? Take it out or scram!”

“Your manager was the one who brought me in personally. You can ask the manager if I have an invitation.”

That security officer stared at Finn Taylor. He couldn’t help but feel that the other was a fraudster. “It looks like you really don’t have an invitation. Since that’s the case, please leave.”

Finn Taylor sighed.?‘It’s simple. All he has to do is ask the manager, so why is he such an idiot?’

“Oh, what a coincidence.”

The buzz attracted quite a lot of attention from the other guests. Amongst them was Nathan Smith.

Philip Smith and Jerry Wood had always been competitors. As such, the former had never attended Jerry Wood’s parties.

But Jerry Wood had no choice but to send an invitation to Philip Smith because their relationship hadn’t deteriorated that far.

Every year, Philip Smith would send his son in his place just to see how many attended Jerry Wood’s parties. He had to know who was on his side and who was on Jerry Wood’s side.

When Nathan Smith heard the hubbub, he walked over, only to spot Finn Taylor and the other two!

“Hello, Mr. Smith.” The security officer immediately stood straight up when he spotted Nathan Smith.

“Hello. What’s going on?”

“Mr. Smith, I think a rat sneaked his way in. I’m trying to get rid of him.”

“Hahaha! A rat? Isn’t he a mossback? Come on; I’ll handle it for you.”

Nobody knew what Nathan Smith was thinking, but he had offered to handle the matter personally.

Very quickly, the bystanders understood the situation.

“Well, Jerry Wood can’t compare to my dad. There are fraudsters who sneak into his party, and now, I’m the one who has to tie up loose ends for him.” Not only was Nathan Smith scolding Jerry Wood with his words, but he was even praising his father.

But nobody could rebuke him.

Yet, no sooner had he tried to throw a punch than he was thrown to the ground as Finn Taylor kneed him in the stomach.

That was utter humiliation for Nathan Smith, but he reacted quickly. “Jerry Wood, oh Jerry Wood. Someone who’s trying to kill you managed to sneak in, but you didn’t even realize. See, you’re not as good as my dad.”

Initially, Nathan Smith had been embarrassed that he had been thrown to the ground. Yet, he had turned the situation around by insulting Jerry Wood instead.

Jerry Wood had arrived a long time ago, but he had simply observed the situation without stepping in.

Everyone thought that it was because he was too embarrassed to say anything, yet a smile was plastered on his face.

This was because there had always been two most prominent figures in San Diego. He had tried all means to change that, but it was to no avail.

But today, Finn Taylor’s incident had given him a breakthrough point—the Smith family had offended Master Peregrine!

‘Great! Your family is dead meat!’

That security officer stared wide-eyed as Finn Taylor shoved Nathan Smith to the ground.

He couldn’t help but panic, and he was about to call for backup to subdue Finn Taylor when he heard Jerry Wood shout, “Stop.”

How timely.

Any later, and the security officer would’ve started attacking Finn Taylor.

Because that security officer was a worker at Jerry Wood’s party, he could be considered to be Jerry Wood’s man.

“I’m sorry for arriving late, Mr. Taylor. I’m really sorry about what happened.” Jerry Wood walked up to Finn Taylor and entered a 90-degree bow respectfully.

“Oh, late? I think you’re just in time.” Finn Taylor knew exactly what Jerry Wood was up to.

The latter would’ve cheated everyone else, but Finn Taylor would never be cheated so easily.

“Mr. Taylor, I should have come earlier.”

Finn Taylor didn’t argue with him and simply pointed at Nathan Smith. “Ask his father to come.”

Jerry Wood wanted to use him to topple the Smith family.

Finn Taylor knew that well, and he was naturally going to let the other have his way. However, Jerry Wood would regret his decision.

Upon hearing Finn Taylor’s words, Jerry Wood’s heart leaped with joy. He whipped out his phone and dialed Philip Smith’s number.

It was one he hadn’t dialed in years.

On the other end of the call, Philip Smith couldn’t help but wonder why the other was calling him out of the blue. “Jerry Wood, why are you suddenly calling me?”

“Your son is in trouble. It’s only right for me to call you as a good friend.”

“My son is in trouble? Oh, I remember now. Isn’t he at your party? What, is he drunk and trying to flirt with a woman?”

“Philip Smith, oh Philip Smith. Your family is on the verge of crumbling, but you’re still so unaware.”

“Stop trying to threaten me. I won’t be afraid even if my son tries to flirt with your wife!”

“Philip Smith, it’d be great if your son was only trying to fool around with women. Unfortunately, he beat someone up at my party.”

Philip Smith chuckled. “Hahaha! I thought something major happened. Is he dead? I’ll cover that guy’s medical costs! How much does he want?”

Philip Smith was arrogant and tried to brush the matter off.

“I think you’re overestimating your son. He was no match for the other guy, and he’s lying on the ground as we speak.”

“What? My son was beaten up? Tell that guy that I’ll never let him off!”

Jerry Wood let out a sweet, saccharine smile. “Alright, I’ll convey your message to Mr. Taylor that Philip Smith will never let him off!”

With that, Jerry Wood hung up.

When Philip Smith heard the words ‘Mr. Taylor,’ he leaped up from his seat..?‘M-Mr. Taylor? Master Peregrine—Finn Taylor?!’
