Chapter 416: King Returns
In truth, John and Steph had always despised each other.
"I want to leave now. There's nothing important here anymore." John declared, his voice calm and detached as he turned to leave without a second glance at Steph.
The alliance was now under his control, and Britain wouldn't dare make any improper moves. As for the base, the remaining members of the alliance would manage it just fine. After all, their lives were in John's hands, and no one dared defy him.
The reaction from John left everyone in stunned confusion.
Was that all?
The young man, the so-called "joker," had been dismissed so easily?
Steph, who had been bracing himself to show his superiority, was embarrassed. He had expected John to retaliate with arrogance, giving him the opportunity to prove his own pride and power. But instead, John had simply ignored him.
It was a blow to Steph's pride. A punch that was powerless. Too rude.
"Did I let you go?" Steph finally exploded, his face darkening with anger.
John paused in his steps but didn't turn around. He seemed uninterested, yet his words came out as sharp as a blade, "Don't be mad. I don't have time to waste with you, young man."
Mad?
