Supreme Mars

Chapter 23 Bottoms up

It was only then that the crowd regained their senses. Both the security officers of Oceania and Peter's bodyguards jumped into the river to rescue Peter.

Caroline came up to Leo, her face flushed red. "Look at what you've done! You threw Peter Lawson into the river! The Lawsons won’t let this slide! We’re all dead men walking!"

William looked worried as well. "Leo, you should better leave Emerdale at once. Don't worry about us."

Leo smiled. "Don't worry, Dad. I'll be fine."

Peter's bodyguards were quick and rescued him in less than five minutes.

However, Peter was drenched all over.

He walked with the support of his men, panting and heaving. His face was bruised in several places.

Emerdale River was ice-cold at night and he almost froze to death.

"Mr. Lawson, are you okay? Should we take you to the hospital?" Victor asked, expressing his concern purely out of courtesy.

"Hospital, my ass!"

Peter pushed him away and shouted, "Victor Sharp, you're finished! Oceania will shut down, starting tomorrow!"

He then looked at Leo, his eyes full of resentment. "Son of a bitch… How dare you throw me in the river!"

Leo remained seated. He shook the red wine in his glass and smiled. "Looks like the river water didn't manage to wash your mouth clean."

"Very well," Peter said. "You've got guts. I expect nothing less from the man who nearly married my cousin."

Everyone was silent. Peter's smile was giving them goosebumps.

"But, you're still no match for her!"

Peter's laughter came to an abrupt halt as he added, "If she hadn't asked me to bring more men with me, I might have died in your hands tonight."

The smile on Leo's face faded slightly.

Kate, one of the two most outstanding people in the Lawson family, was known as the female Napoleon. Though she was the star of the business scene in Emerdale, she was not here in person tonight.

That meant that she had seen through the nature of the wedding.

That explained why she sent someone else in her place, and that replacement was Peter.

Peter laughed again. "Sure, you can brawl, but can you fight a group as large as ours?"
