Chapter 198: Chapter 198
The crowd looked at Ian Jacobs’ scared and cowardly demeanor, their faces filled with shock as if struck by lightning.
What’s going on? Why is Ian Jacobs so afraid of Estelle Sterling? Wasn’t he supposed to beat Estelle Sterling to tears?
Estelle Sterling couldn’t be bothered with these people and simply walked around them.
"Wait! Estelle Sterling, don’t go."
Someone blocked Estelle Sterling’s path.
Estelle Sterling looked up at him. It was Quentin Zane, Ian Jacobs’ number one lackey.
Though his name had the character for humility, he was not the least bit humble, and was even more extreme than Ian Jacobs.
But since the Zane Family didn’t have the influence that the Jacobs Family did, Quentin Zane acknowledged Ian Jacobs as the boss. Discover more novels at Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
Just now, for some reason, Ian Jacobs ran away, and Quentin Zane snorted coldly, "Estelle Sterling, what did you do to Ian Jacobs? Why is he so afraid of you?"
Considering Ian Jacobs had kidnapped him, resulting in Alaric Faulkner getting injured and now lying in the hospital, Estelle Sterling was in a bad mood.
He looked at Quentin Zane coldly, "If you don’t want to end up like Ian Jacobs, stay away from me."
Quentin Zane sneered, "I don’t believe you’re that formidable."
The others, having just seen how frightened Ian Jacobs was, were also on high alert and someone stepped forward to pull Quentin Zane away.
"Forget it, Quentin Zane, let’s not provoke him. We’ll ask Ian Jacobs what really happened."
Quentin Zane rolled his eyes, and in the end, didn’t make things difficult for Estelle Sterling.
After they left, they immediately went to find Ian Jacobs to ask what happened.
"Ian, why are you so afraid of Estelle Sterling?"
"Yeah, and you said you’d let him be the boss, are you crazy?"
"Didn’t you give him a harsh lesson the day before yesterday?"
Listening to their chatter, Ian Jacobs thought about his family’s instructions.
He shook his head, "It’s nothing, just stay away from Estelle Sterling from now on, don’t provoke him, he’s not someone we can afford to mess with."
Quentin Zane scoffed contemptuously, "Ian Jacobs, you’re not getting scared, are you? How could you be afraid of him, a bastard without a father!"
Ian Jacobs looked at Quentin Zane in horror, "He has a father!"
Estelle Sterling’s father is Alaric Faulkner.
The Alaric Faulkner who can shake Veridia City to its core with a single stomp.
His own father got into trouble because of Alaric Faulkner and ended up in such a miserable state.
Ian Jacobs shivered again in fear.
"What? Estelle Sterling has a father? Who is his father?"
Ian Jacobs opened his mouth, wanting to say Alaric Faulkner’s name, but recalled his family’s instructions and reluctantly kept quiet.
His family said that since Alaric Faulkner hadn’t announced Estelle Sterling’s identity, it meant he wanted to keep Estelle Sterling hidden, and he couldn’t spread it around.
In the end, Ian Jacobs could only say, "Anyway, he has a father, and his father is a very powerful person, so don’t provoke him anymore."
Quentin Zane was indifferent, thinking Ian Jacobs must be crazy. Estelle Sterling was someone they looked down upon, and acknowledging him as boss? Impossible!
Ian Jacobs noticed Quentin Zane’s thoughts and sighed, "Believe it or not, don’t blame me when you regret it later."
Quentin Zane sneered, "I won’t be as cowardly as you, and I definitely won’t acknowledge Estelle Sterling as my boss."
After saying this, Quentin Zane walked away angrily.
Someone looked at Ian Jacobs and said, "We will never acknowledge Estelle Sterling as the boss."
With a swish, everyone left completely, leaving Ian Jacobs alone.
He sighed, "None of you believe me now, but you’ll know you were wrong later."
