Chapter 325
“Of course! Since when I have ever lied to you?” Harold exclaimed in displeasure when he saw the look of disbelief in Matthew's eyes.
Eren, however, didn't take too kindly to those words of his.
Jacques was able to confirm Harold's identity as he recognized his voice.
While he didn't know who that God of War was who was going around the world hosting events, he couldn't care less about that at the moment.
There's no doubt that this young man standing before me is none other than the God of War himself! This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
He was about to step forward and greet Harold, but Eren was faster. He jabbed a finger at Harold and shouted angrily, “Hey, Harold! Have you no shame? My dad came here because of me! How dare you claim to have summoned him with a single phone call?” Still feeling dissatisfied, he turned around and ordered the bodyguards, “Break his legs right now! I want to wipe that smug grin off his face!”
Those words had barely left his mouth when he felt a sharp pain in his left thigh.
“Ow!” Eren yelled in pain as he turned around, only to see Jacques glaring furiously at him with the cane in hand.
Confused by Jacques' actions, Eren stared at him and shouted in confusion, “Hey! What are you doing, Dad? I'm your son! It's that assh*le who's disrespecting you here! What are you hitting me for?”
Jacques's face turned pale when he heard Eren insulting Harold again. “I'm hitting you because you haven't even realized your mistake!” he chided while striking Eren with his cane once again.
“Argh! My leg!” Eren screamed in agony while staring at Jacques in fear.
He had no idea why Jacques kept hitting him.
Jacques wasn't in the mood to explain any further. Having identified Harold, he quickly pushed his way through the crowd and ran up to him.
“M-Mr. Campbell! I apologize on behalf of my son! I should've taught him better! I'm terribly sorry he offended you! Please forgive him this once! I promise he won't dare offend you ever again!” Jacques said as he knelt before Harold.
He got on his knees not only to beg Harold to spare Eren but also to thank Harold for his help over the years.
Freya Group was only successful because Harold selected it, but that was a secret that only Jacques knew.
Even those in his family didn't know about it, let alone those outside of it.
Everyone's jaw dropped in shock when they saw Jacques apologizing to Harold and kneeling before him.
Even if they put aside Jacques' social status and power, it was extremely uncommon for a senior citizen like him to kneel before a young man like Harold.
The entire place fell into complete silence as Eren, the members of the Xenos family, and all of their subordinates were staring with their mouths open.
The only people in the crowd who weren't shocked by the sudden turn of events were the kids that the neighbors had brought over.
