Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade
Chapter 547

Chapter 547 With Just Them

At that precise moment, Stuart and Jacob strutted out.

As they both fixed their eyes on Alex, who was surrounded by the bodyguards, a confident smile flickered in their eyes.

After all, the eight men Stuart assembled were mercenaries his father hired at an exorbitant price from The Brecknock War for him. Therefore, they were all ruthless killers.

Even Jacob, who knew that Alex was very powerful, was imbued with confidence and no longer harbored any fear within him after learning of the mercenaries' background.

"Alex, you should've known your place as a live-in son-in-law instead of acting high and mighty in front of Mr. Nixon. Look, no one can save you now!" He wore a gratified expression as he eyed Alex. Truth be told, he had long since disdained Alex and wanted to eliminate him.

Alas, not only could he do nothing to the man, but he had even been taught a lesson by him multiple

times.

For instance, the incident that transpired a few days ago.

He had been exceedingly low-key and careful but never had he thought that he would still offend Alex and end up coerced into doing something so degrading.

To him, that was the greatest humiliation in his entire lifetime.

He initially thought that he would never be able to take revenge for it for the rest of his days. However, he didn't expect Alex to be so foolish as to offend Stuart that day. He'll definitely be crippled by Mr. Nixon since he dared to offend him!

Right at that moment, his eyes brimmed with glee, and his mind was chock-filled with scenes of Alex ending up in a wretched state.

"Oh, really?" Alex glanced over his shoulder at Jacob and Stuart, a mocking gleam flashing across his eyes.

"Quick, drop to your knees before Mr. Nixon and apologize, Alex! Perhaps he'll then spare your life. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you today!" Jacob asserted smugly.

"In this whole wide world, there's no one who can have me kneel before him. Who do are that I should fall to my knees before you?" Alex drawled disdainfully.

you think you both

In the same scornful manner, Jacob snapped, "Alex, do you think you're all that great just because you fooled the Grant family that you can now trample all over the Jennings family? Let me tell you that the Jennings family is no longer what it used to be, and you can't afford to offend us, loser!"

Slightly taken aback, Alex looked Stuart up and down. He snickered and riposted, "Why? Have you all gotten a big shot to back you up?"

Jacob pointed at Stuart beside him and declared with a gloating smile on his face, "This is Mr. Nixon, the chairman of Ivy Media Group. Frankly speaking, his support is the reason the Jennings family managed to recover the shares acquired by Four Seas Corporation a few days ago. We've now launched a new collaboration with Ivy Media Group, and we'll definitely soar in the future! If you and your family dare to go against us again, I'll be certain to teach you a lesson and make it so that the lot of you won't be able to survive in Nebula City!"

Nonetheless, Alex merely gave a bark of contemptuous laughter and murmured, "Is that so? But do you know that this person whom you're relying on to back you up had just gotten down on his knees before me some time ago?"

As he said that, he gazed at Stuart with amusement written all over his face.

Needless to say, Stuart's expression turned frightfully grim.

The incident of him having been forced to his knees in front of Alex at the auto show back then was a great humiliation to him. He never expected Alex to bring it up again that day and thoroughly mortify him. "Alex, you

think you're incredible just because you have some fighting skills, huh? Mark my words that I'll break your arms and legs today!" he snarled furiously.

After glancing at the eight burly men surrounding him, Alex sniggered derisively and asked, "With just the eight of them?"

"Yes!" Stuart replied coldly. "All eight of them are King Class warriors from The Brecknock War, killers at heart. If you get down on your knees and beg me, I'll consider sparing you!"

While speaking, his eyes blazed with resentment.

"Really?"

Alex chuckled, and at the same time, made his move.

Thud!Thud!Thud!

Before Stuart even knew what had happened, he was suddenly greeted by the sight of all eight stellar bodyguards he assembled on the ground, groaning in pain.

He didn't even see how they ended up on the ground.

All he saw was a flash of a figure, followed by all eight of his bodyguards collapsing onto the ground with resounding thuds.

"I'll also give you a chance now. I'll let you off this once if you drop to your knees and beg me."

Alex regarded Stuart sardonically.
