Chapter 448 Struggle in the Rain


Nobody, not even Ambrose, saw Alaric's reaction coming. Tommy was especially caught off guard.

Josep's notes clearly said yesterday was treatment day, so how was Alaric this strong today? What was going on?

When Alaric made his move, the reporters went nuts, snapping photos and recording videos like they'd just hit the jackpot.

Ambrose got hit, and if that video got out, it would be an embarrassment for the Vale family.

So Stuart snapped at the reporters, "This has nothing to do with you. Get out! If I see any of this in the news, you all better be ready for payback!"

The reporters, scared out of their wits, quickly bailed.

Once they were gone, the Far East International employees also took off, leaving just Stuart, Ambrose, and Tommy.

"Alaric, we came here in good faith for the funeral, and you beat up Ambrose? Is this how you treat your guests?" Stuart demanded.

"I treat real guests with hospitality, but for people like you with bad intentions, using my fists is already being polite. I haven't even shot you yet," Alaric shot back. "Alaric!" Stuart roared, his face turned livid. "You killed my first son, and now you've laid hands on Ambrose. Do you think I'll let you get away with this?" Cormac tensed up. He knew Stuart had a rough past and loved to fight. Was he planning to throw down now?

"So what does Stuart want? A fight?" Alaric sneered. "Wouldn't that be bullying an old man?"
