Chapter 195 Fight Fire With Fire

Finished

Let’s set aside other things first. The description of one of them as an old man and the other as a weakling fits this situation well.

Anthony glanced out of the corner of his eye at Philip. As expected, the old man began to waver upon hearing this.

He decided to add fire to the fuel, saying, “Grandpa, if you think he’s up to no good, just send him away. In any case, we’ve already offended everyone around here. They’ll definitely come looking for trouble. I’m too weak to fight back, so we’ll just have you surrender.”

The word ‘surrender‘ was particularly harsh to his ears.

Philip’s face darkened instantly as he pointed at Anthony and cursed, “You useless brat! I see you’ve had it too easy. Talking about surrender–that’s disgraceful! A true man never surrenders!”

Philip was a soldier, a man who fought with his comrades on the battlefield, someone who had shouted, ‘Bleed, but don’t cry. How could he ever surrender?

This word was an insult to him.

Anthony spread his hand and asked, “What can we do? I can’t fight them off. At worst, they can laugh at us. They’ve laughed at us for over ten years; another day or two won’t make a difference.

“Being laughed at for another ten or twenty years? Let’s just consider it a test of our mental resilience.”

After saying this, he sneaked another look at his grandfather’s expression.

Sure enough, Philip’s complexion had turned grim. His chest was heaving with anger. Despite his fury, he remained uncharacteristically silent.

Anthony was right.

Their current arrogance was thanks to Apollo carning them respect. If Apollo left, they’d return to their

former state.

Stephanie noticed Philip’s hesitation too. She hadn’t expected Anthony to openly oppose her, and she glared at him with resentment.
