Chapter 213:

Blood trickled from the corner of Stan’s mouth.

Unfazed by pain, Stan raised his hand with deliberate slowness to clean the blood.

Jake’s dark eyes narrowed slightly. His patience had worn thin. Stan seemed unhinged to him.

Jake stated, “I’m not interested in what had happened between you and the person you had mistaken me for. I have just one question for you. Are you certain you want to play against me? And to ally yourself with the likes of Dean? I must say that’s such a lousy idea.”

Stan’s smile was chilling. “Dean might be a fool, but you deserve to die. No matter who I collaborate with, my goal is to never rest until you are dead.”

Jake’s anger flared, and his voice turned icy. “You might get the wrong idea about my temper. Make it past this doorway today, and I’ll make sure your end is particularly gruesome.”

Unshaken, Stan provoked Jake, saying, “Prove your strength then. Show me how you intend to end my life.”

With a swift move, Jake grabbed Stan by the collar, his taller frame intensifying the intimidation.

Stan locked eyes with Jake, a flicker of envy visible in his gaze. Jake had grown up enjoying the best educational conditions in the Reeves family.

Jake never harbored the deep-seated inferiority that plagued Stan, who always felt inadequate compared to others.

Stan remembered the first time he saw Jake on TV. Jake was dazzling, as if destined to be God’s favorite.

Now, face to face with Jake, Stan realized the media’s praises of Jake were not exaggerations.

Jake exuded the natural aura of a born leader, something Dean sorely lacked.

Stan was overwhelmed with envy. Why? Why did he have to live like a rat in the gutter while Jake had everything? Why?

Jake tightened his grip on Stan’s collar with minimal effort. His indifferent dark eyes reflected Stan’s pitiful state.
