Chapter 1679
Milesโ eyelids twitched, silently cursing that they were doomed. He knew that Calvin had lost his temper.
Having sat securely in the Peck family patriarch position for so long, Calvin had turned a deaf ear toward external affairs. He always thought that the current era was still the same as before.
In reality, Andrew was not just any ordinary fish in the pond; he was someone they simply could not afford to provoke.
Andrew put Liliana down.
Seeing this, Calvin became even more disdainful.
Was this weak-willed little punk backing down to him?
Liliana hissed venomously, โAndrew, my dad is standing up for me now. Letโs see if you can walk your way out of this one!โ
Andrewโs smile turned cold. โDonโt worry about me. I can take down your entire Peck family by myself.โ
Tianaโs face tightened. โAndy, youโre not doing this alone. Weโre with you.โ
Natasha, Dylan, and the rest of the crew also stepped forward, ready to intervene at a momentโs notice.
Andrew slowly made his way down the stairs, his tone calm but chilling. โIf Mr. Peck Senior wants to play, Iโll gladly play with him. Listen closely. No one on my side is allowed to interfere.โ
Tiana clenched her jaw but said nothing. She knew when Andrew got serious, no one, not even she, could stop him.
She had seen it firsthand back when they had gone treasure hunting.
Andrew could laugh and flirt all day, but when it came down to business, he became a force of nature.
Calvin straightened his jacket and sneered, โDonโt worry! For your sake, Iโll go easy on him. I wonโt kill him, but he will suffer a little. The Peck familyโs reputation has to be restored somehow.โ
Andrew kicked aside a toppled chair in his path and motioned toward Calvin. โMr. Peck Senior, go ahead and send someone out. I get it. Youโre pissed I laid hands on your daughter, and you think Iโm just some no-name punk whoโs not qualified to stand on the same level as you.
โBut today, Iโm going to see what the great Five Apex Families are really made of. Let me leave you with this, Mr. Peck Senior: the times have changed.โ
Calvinโs chest heaved with fury. He could not believe that the brat was actually lecturing him.
Back when Calvin was conquering Gabo Creek, Andrew was probably still in diapers. What was even more infuriating was that he actually dared to provoke the Peck family by name.
This was unbearable. If they ignored this, others would think the Peck family was cowardly.
An elderly man from the Peck family stepped forward with a grim expression. โSir, let me handle this!โ
Miles sighed but showed some responsibility by blocking him. โUncle William, let me do it instead!โ
William Peck snorted coldly, โMiles, youโre the heir to our family. Itโs not appropriate for you to act! Besides, Iโm more than capable of taking down this kid. Heโs so arrogant, and he must be severely punished!โ
Calvin said in a low voice, โAll of you stand down! Didnโt this kid just specifically call for me to take the field? Iโve dominated Gabo Creek Province for over 30 years. You think I havenโt seen every kind of challenger? Iโll teach him a lesson today!โ
At this moment, Calvin was extremely pretentious and condescending. Behind him, nearly 200 Peck family guards all showed solemn expressions.
The dozen or so Peck family experts in the front row also nodded quietly.
