Chapter 12
"Welcome, Mr. Miller!" Fisk greeted Andrew respectfully. The rest of his family greeted Andrew with deep respect, too. Andrew observed Tyler and Maria and clicked his tongue. "What a tragic thing to be so injured on your wedding day."
"You must avenge us, Mr. Miller!" Fisk stoked the fire a little more by saying, "This asshole is insanely bold.
"He wasn't the least bit scared when he heard you were coming. He doesn't respect you and the Shadowtiger and even called you trash!"
"How dare he?" Andrew roared murderously.
The onlookers shivered in fear. Nothing good could come from Andrew flying into a fit of rage.
"Who is this person you speak of?" Andrew asked Fisk.
Though Andrew was the king of Ravenview's underworld, he was still apprehensive of certain people whom he couldn't afford to cross. He didn't want his actions to backfire, after all. "He's just a conman." Maria scoffed.
"Who is it? Show yourself!" Andrew barked, making the guests quiver in fear. Pindrop silence filled the hall.
"It's him, Mr. Miller." Tyler pointed at Sebastian.
Andrew narrowed his eyes dangerously before walking toward Sebastian with his men behind him.
Meanwhile, Sebastian continued enjoying his wine as if oblivious to the danger he was in.
Tyler quickly piped up, "Weren't you being so outrageous earlier, Sebastian? Where's that attitude now?"
Sebastian swiftly slapped Tyler in the face again, shocking the latter. The onlookers watched on in astonishment before chattering amongst themselves once again.
"That kid is too fucking bold. He actually hit Mr. Cadwell in front of Mr. Miller! Mark my words, the kid's gonna die very terribly."
"Exactly. Mr. Miller can take someone out easily; the only concerning thing is how exactly he'll kill them."
"Was I being outrageous?" Sebastian clapped back.
Only then did Tyler return to his senses. He growled, "Look at him, Mr. Miller! He clearly doesn't respect you!"
"No one has ever dared to be so unruly in my presence. Since you're the first, you'll have to pay a terrible price for it. Break his legs!" Andrew ordered.
His disciples then lunged at Sebastian.
"Wait a second!" Elijah ran over and said to Andrew, "Could you please let him go for my sake, Mr. Miller? He saved my life."
Andrew sneered. "Your sake? How is that my concern? All of you who aren't involved in this-leave, now!"
The guests quickly ran out of the hotel in a panic. Though they were all influential or wealthy people themselves, they were nothing compared to Andrew Miller.
Andrew was the king of Ravenview's underworld and had several hundred men in his name, all bloodthirsty and cruel. It was extremely easy for Andrew to get rid of someone, so no one would dare to cross him.
Elijah was about to plead for mercy on Sebastian's behalf once more, but his sons quickly pulled him away. Ronan and Jamie were leaving as well since they couldn't cross Andrew, either.
Lillian gazed at Sebastian one last time, feeling somewhat sad, even though she didn't know why. Sebastian had stripped her of her virginity, yet she still didn't want harm to befall him. But Lillian couldn't take control of the situation, so there was no point in lingering around. She might end up getting into trouble herself otherwise.
Only the Lisbons, Cadwells, and the Shadowtiger Clan's men were left in the wedding venue. Sebastian was there too, of course, still enjoying his liquor as if nothing much was going on. Andrew sneered. "You're pretty brave, kid. A pity you're too stupid for your own good."
"That's enough!"
