Chapter 198 Who Are You?
Chapter 198 Who Are You?
Quintin took out his phone and dialed his father’s number.
“Father, come to the Zachary Restaurant now. I was slapped by uncle Deacon. Please help me!”
Hearing his son’s voice, Grant was worried and said nervously, “Wait, is Deacon losing his mind? I will
come to talk to him!”
Because Quintin was his only child, Grant always treated him like a treasure and had never beaten
him. It was impossible for him to tolerate others to slap him.
However, Quintin didn’t dare to tell the truth and didn’t tell his father why he was beaten.
He hanged up the phone and said unhappily, “My father will be here soon. Uncle Deacon, I will see
how you explain to him.”
Deacon smiled and sat beside Maximilian. He put up the teapot to re-fill his glass.
Grant ran to the restaurant in a short time. After glancing over the room, he rushed beside Quintin.
“Oh, my son, what’s wrong with your face?”
“Father, it’s all because of them. Uncle Deacon humiliated me together with that loser!” Quintin
complained when pointing at Deacon and Maximilian.
Grant frowned and glanced at Maximilian. When seeing he was wearing ordinary clothes, he ignored
him at once, but stared at Deacon in wonder.
Grant was the director of the restaurant association and was in charge of major industries like Zachary
Restaurant, which explained why he could become a shareholder of the Zachary Restaurant in H city.
“Did Deacon really beat you?” Grant asked.
“Yes, he slapped me twice as soon as he got in without even asking me what happened.” Quintin
replied, full of grievance and anger.
Grant was so angry that his blood pressure went up directly. He pointed at Deacon’s nose and shouted,
“Deacon, are you seeking death? Or do you think I am too old to go mad? How dare you hurt my son?
Are you crazy?” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“And who is this broke? Are you silly by standing by such a trash and beat my son?”
“Yes, it’s him. Uncle Deacon beats me because of him. Maximilian is the man who marries into the
Griffith family and relies on them.” Quintin said in an aggrieved manner.
Maximilian glanced at him and shook his head, thinking that the father and son were really stupid.
Seeing Maximilian’s scornful expression, Grant yelled, “How dare you contradict my son? Do you want
to know what death is? I am a powerful man in H city and my son can’t be bullied by a random person.”
Afterwards, Grant turned around and yelled at Deacon,
“Deacon, you owe me an explanation. If you can’t, don’t blame me for not helping you. Your restaurant
can no longer run business and will shut down forever.”
Deacon sneered and stood up, “Mr. Grant, your son is really getting into a big trouble. I think you’re the
one who are looking for trouble by protecting him.”
“Ah, how dare you say it? Do you think I am afraid of you? Do you think you can threaten me? If you
dare do that, I will ruin the Zachary Restaurant!”
Grant thought he had found Deacon’s weakness. As long as he mentioned his position in the
Restaurant Association, he was sure that Deacon would retreat. He might also have the opportunity to
ask for more shares in the Zachary Restaurant.
“Grant, are you really trying to mess up with me? We’re not a small business.” Deacon glared at him
and the atmosphere suddenly became intense.
“Well, we already had when you beat my son. Now it’s my time to teach you a lesson. I will only forgive
you if you kneel down to let my son slap you until he’s happy.” Grant weren’t afraid of Deacon.
Deacon felt he was breathless because of anger.
Quintin smiled and cursed Maximilian, “Loser, have you seen how powerful I am? Are you really
regarding yourself as a big shot? This place is going to close and will stop running business. Just wait
to pay the debt by doing sexual work.”
Maximilian took out his phone and called Wilfred again. “A director of the Restaurant Association is
barking before me.”
“Please wait, lord. I will let their president handle this.”
“Yes.” Maximilian hanged up the phone by simply talking one sentence.
Deacon looked at him respectfully. He was really a powerful person by making Mr. Ferguson afraid of
him with a phone call. His call was aggressive. Could he really make Grant lose all of his power by
simply calling someone?
“Fuck you!” Grant spat and squinted at him when turning around his head.
“You’re really good at being pretentious! How dare you say I am barking? I will fuck you and make you
kneel down in front of the door to bark!”
Grant was mad at Maximilian’s words. It had been so many years since he was cursed by someone.
Quintin felt familiar about the way Maximilian called. It seemed that he had made a call in this way not
long ago.
“Well, then you have to make yourself prepared.” Maximilian said with a smile.
“Prepare for what? Who do you think you are? I am not afraid of anyone in H city. Even powerful
people like Thomas have to call me big brother!”
Grant was confident and didn’t realize what was going to happen. He just kept on bragging.
“Anyone who wants to open a restaurant in H city has to get my permission. They have to be really
careful when seeing me. Have you experienced that feeling, loser? You’re sure to be obedient to me if
you are running a restaurant!”
“Besides, Deacon, do you think you are strong enough to fight with me? Have you forgotten the time
when you tried to flatter me? You know nothing about my power! So did Mr. Ferguson. He is such a
cheapskate. Just tell him if he wants to continue running the Zachary Restaurant, then he has to
provide me with more shares. Otherwise, his restaurant can never open and run again!”
Grant cursed continuously, thinking himself as the master of the world and can decide everyone’s
destiny.
Deacon didn’t say anything but looked at him quietly, as if he was watching a fool.
“What are you looking at? Don’t you believe I can close the Zachary Restaurant? Your front door will be
sealed next morning!”
Grant was still barking for ten minutes.
Suddenly, a deep voice came from the direction of the door. “Do you really think you are something?”
