Chapter 574: Hubert Jordan of Borealis City!

Even Pete was shocked.

He looked at Connor curiously and asked coldly, “Kid, what did you say to me just now?”

“I said that if Mr. Stewart is willing to kneel and apologize to me, perhaps I will not pursue this. Do you understand what I mean?” Connor replied expressionlessly.

“Do you have a f*cking death wish?”

When Pete’s lackeys heard Connor’s words, they picked up the weapons in their hands and prepared to rush toward Connor.

Pete reached out to stop his underling, then rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes at Connor. “Brat, 1 did not expect you to have such boldness. 1 originally planned to ask you to pay some money and not fuss about this with you. However, you do not know what is good for you. In that case, don’t blame me for being rough to you…”

“Pete, don’t waste your breath on this kid. Just get him!”

“That’s right. I think this kid needs to be taught a lesson. He’ll know how powerful we are after we beat him up…”

Pete’s lackeys rubbed their fists as if this had something to do with them.

In fact, a large part of the reason they were so angry was that they could hear from Connor’s tone that he was disdainful of Pete.

People who came out to mingle valued their reputation the most. If they were looked down on by others, they would not be able to hang around and be loud in the area in the future.

Pete stood before Connor calmly. He was confident that he could defeat those people in half a minute if they dared to attack him. Therefore, he did not look flustered at all.

Yana looked at Connor helplessly, not knowing what to say.

“Pete has already taken a step back. Why doesn’t Connor know what’s good for him? What was the point of showing off?” Yana could not help but sigh internally.

Yana’s good impression of Connor had plummeted. In her eyes, Connor was simply an egotistical person without any brains.

Even if Pete was skilled, he would not be a match for so many people.

Wasn’t Connor just looking for trouble by saying all these?

“Brat, 1 will give you one last chance. Are you going to apologize or not…”

Pete took a step forward and whispered to Connor.

“Then, 1’11 give you one last chance!” Connor didn’t wait for Pete to finish speaking before interrupting him.

“Alright, you’ve got guts. I hope you’ll have the same guts later!” Pete sneered, then turned to his lackeys and shouted, “Kill him!”

‘Whoosh!’

When Pete’s lackeys heard this, they were like wild beasts that had been released from their cages and rushed toward Connor.

“Yana, hurry up and save Connor!” Lena shouted at Yana nervously when she saw that Pete was really going to hit him.

Yana didn’t intend to care about Connor at all, but she had already called Uncle Hubert just now. Now, she couldn’t ignore him.

After all, she couldn’t waste the favor she owed him. Therefore, after hesitating, Yana gritted her teeth and stood up.

“Pete, what do you mean? Don’t tell me you don’t even want to show respect to my Uncle Hubert?” Yana shouted at Pete.

“Uncle Hubert?”

When Pete heard Yana’s words, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he asked with a straight face, “Who is Uncle Hubert?”

“Hubert Jordan from Borealis City!” Yana blurted out the name without thinking.

When Pete heard the name, his expression changed drastically. His lackeys immediately stopped what they were doing.

It was obvious that the name ‘Hubert Jordan’ had worked.

Connor subconsciously turned to look at Yana curiously.

Connor had somehow felt that Yana came from a certain background.

Otherwise, when Connor got off the car, Yana would never have said those things. However, Connor didn’t know who Hubert Jordan was.

Connor didn’t know what kind of person Hubert was, but Pete was very clear about it.

Although Hubert was not a particularly powerful person, he was still a local gangster with some influence. He had many brothers under him, and the power in his hands was naturally not something that a hooligan like Pete could compare to.

If Pete really offended Hubert because of today’s matter, it would also have a huge impact on him.

However, there was no evidence now. Pete would not believe that Yana really knew Hubert just because of what she said.

After all, there were many people who knew Hubert, but whether they knew him or not was a different matter.

“What’s your relationship with Hubert?” Pete hesitated and asked Yana.

Yana glanced at Pete and said softly, “Hubert is my uncle. I’ve already called him just now…”

“You think I’ll believe you just because you said you called him?!” Pete couldn’t help but laugh coldly. Then, he continued, “If you really know Hubert, I will not make things difficult for you. You just need to give Hubert a call and I will confirm it…”

After Yana heard Pete’s words, she became awkward.

She didn’t expect Pete to be so cautious. She wasn’t very close to Hubert.

It was only because Yana’s sister had once helped Hubert that he was willing to help.

Yana felt that if she called Hubert now, he would definitely be unhappy.

This kind of situation was also very understandable. After all, he had already promised to help solve this, but if she kept calling him to urge him, that would seem a little rude.

“I’ve already called Uncle Hubert just now. Uncle Hubert said that his people will be here soon…” After hesitating, Yana explained.

When Pete heard that Hubert’s men were coming, he was also shocked. He asked, “Are you sure Hubert’s men are coming?”

“I’m sure…” Yana nodded.

“All right, then I’ll wait here!” Pete replied expressionlessly. Then, he waved his hand, signaling his lackeys behind him not to make a move..
