Chapter 1157: Of All People, You Had to Mess with Night Shao’s Woman
Mason Nightshade stayed in place, motionless, his eyes coldly scanning the reporters.
The reporters held their breath, then gasped again.
This was the true Lord Victor Yann standing before them.
With just a word or a finger, he could decide their fate for the rest of their lives. Sometimes life is unfair; everyone is born and raised by parents, but some have overwhelming power and others can only live by climbing amidst trends.
But there’s nothing they can do about it.
Mason Nightshade slightly curled his lips, seemingly too lazy to say another word to them.
Yet these people dared to bully those under his protection; if he didn’t step out and warn them now, they’d believe they were above the law, believing his influence couldn’t reach the press.
Lording over them with an attitude of „If you have something to say, say it," he declared, "Since you have so many questions, my assistant will stay behind and answer them for you."
"No, no, no... no trouble for Mr. Nightshade," a sweating reporter wiped his forehead.
They dared not inconvenience this King Victor Yann.
Do they have a death wish?!
Gustavo Yates shivered; who could perform the hidden threat behind a smile better than the boss? Scary...
Mason Nightshade smirked coldly; this crowd only bullies the weak and fears the strong. With the Shaw Family in decline and Aurelia Shaw not developing overseas recently, her popularity has waned, making her an easy target for anyone wanting to step on her.
He wouldn’t even dream of bullying someone close to him, yet these people dared to try.
"Since everyone is here, how can I let you leave empty-handed? Or does Mason Nightshade’s reputation not warrant an interview?"
"No, no, no... absolutely not..."
They wouldn’t dare say otherwise. Do they wish to end their lives prematurely?
Mason Nightshade instructed Gustavo Yates, also letting the reporters hear, "Anyone who doesn’t open their mouth to ask a question today won’t leave here. Since you love freezing in the cold here, enjoy it to the fullest. At the door, don’t say I didn’t treat you well."
If they couldn’t understand his words, they had wasted their years as journalists.
This was Mason Nightshade declaring sovereignty: Aurelia Shaw is my woman; anyone who dares touch her won’t get past the Nightshade Family.
The cold wind is a minor issue; losing a job and being banned in Q City is a lifelong problem.
Having said that, Mason Nightshade left without looking back.
The reporters trembled in the cold wind.
Though the weather had warmed up, they felt tonight’s wind colder than the chill of December.
They must have been out of their minds to come here late at night to confront him.
But who would have thought Aurelia Shaw would reunite with Mr. Nightshade?
Their divorce’s affair was once a sensational uproar, with rumors that Aurelia had hurt Mr. Nightshade so much that he was hospitalized for months, nearly losing his life.
They wished they could drag out whoever spread the false news and beat them up.
Who dared to write this news?
Even knowing this explosive headline-worthy news, no one dared risk their lives and future to challenge Mr. Nightshade’s limits; it was truly a reckless act.
Gustavo Yates’s mellow voice resonated: "Shall we begin?"
The reporters shivered, wanting to cry but failing.
...
The old housekeeper at the Shaw’s hadn’t expected Aurelia Shaw to return; the relationship between her and the elder had always been complex. The young lady had been abroad for so long without calling him.
After yesterday’s huge incident, he didn’t know what to do, so he called the young lady. He hadn’t expected her to return so quickly.
This showed she still cared for her family.
