There was a hint of rage in Freddy’s eyes; as a Kshatriya, he had never been disrespected like this in his entire life.
But since he was still quite the capable man, he took a deep breath to calm himself. The emotion on his face completely dissipated afterwards.
He wanted to trample on the man who dared to cross him But he knew he didn’t have to do it himself.
After all, the John family was the Overlord Gang’s honored guests. Compared to Freddy’s rage, Dahlia must’ve been way more embarrassed.
The John family was on the upswing as well; there was no way they could take such disrespect.
It would be bad if the situation ruined the family’s reputation completely.
After calming down, Freddy put on a small smile.
“Interesting. That’s normal, anyway.”
“The Celestial Temple has no background in Country H. It’s only natural that they look down on us.”
“If that wasn’t the case, Eli and his father wouldn’t be forced to kneel in front of the hospital a few days ago.”
“This country sure is filled with hidden talents!”
Freddy seemed like he was ready to negotiate, but anyone could tell that he was filled with rage at that very moment.
He wanted to agitate Dahlia to the point she would trample on the man herself.
Dahlia glared coldly at Freddy; an experienced woman like her surely knew what Freddy was thinking.
But as a member of the John family, she could remain calm and collected at any point of time.
Not only did her expression remain the same, the way she sipped her wine didn’t change either.
She finished her wine calmly, and then glanced at the bald man not far away from her.
“The John family and the Overlord Gang have powerful reputations. The Celestial Temple has a really strong background as well. With all our powers combined, even the five hidden families or relatives of the top ten families would have to avoid us!”
“Then, who dares cross us?!”
“Is he from a sacred martial arts training ground or some noble family?”
Dahlia had a sweet smile, but her eyes bore a cold gaze.
The bald man trembled when he remembered something about Harvey.
“You’re right, Lady John. He does have quite a strong background. He must be pretty powerful. Maybe he has connections to the government of Flutwell as well…”
“Background?”
“Power?”
“Connections?‘
Dahlia crossed her legs, disdain showing in her eyes.
“How strong of a background do you think he has?”
“How powerful do you think he can be?”
“How deep of a connection can he have?”
“In a place like Flutwell, nobody can top the John family!”
“Are you kidding?”
Dahlia snapped her fingers after that.
She then pulled out a badge the size of a palm, made out of pure gold and with the word “John” etched on it.
“Take this badge to that ignorant fool!”
“Tell him to break his own arms and bring the woman Young Master Garcia’s interested in after cleaning her up!”
“Then, make him kneel in front of the door for ten whole minutes.”
“I’ll let him off the hook after that!”
“But if he doesn’t cherish the chance I gave him…”
“Then tell him that I’ll kill whoever tries to stop me!”
