Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

Chapter 126

126 Place to meet all the tough guys

“Bro-brother,” she stuttered.

Standing on the stage while staring at Piper with an undisguised disdain on his face, the young man who was almost of the same height as Maverick and Damien raised his gun at Piper’s head.

Piper bit her lips. She was sure he wouldn’t ki ll her but right now…

“Bang!”

The music was turned off by now and everywhere was as silent as a graveyard. Nobody was allowed to leave because there were guards by the doors, preventing anyone from leaving.

Piper, who docked due to fear, raised her head to see that the gun wasn’t pointed at her. She looked behind her and saw a dead teenager with his phone by his side. Without being told, she knew he was kil led because he was recording a video of her dancing.

With what she did, there were bound to be people videoing her.

“What you do with your life outside of Country M is not my business, however, what I will not accept is you ruining the reputation of my family,” Davis said coolly.

Piper stared at this handsome brother of hers. Tall, muscular, with straight legs and a well-proportioned face. If only all her brothers saw her as a sister, she would have been the happiest girl on earth. Even now, all he cared about was the reputation that the Xu family no longer has.

“Brother, I…” she stopped talking when she saw that he had turned around and was about to leave.

Piper felt humiliated. Maverick ignored her earlier and now, in the presence of so many people, her nephew was ignoring her too?

Yes, that’s right. She was his little aunt but ha tes to see herself that way. She preferred to call him

‘older brother.’

After Piper’s mother destroyed her first husband, she went to seek warmth as a Mistress in the hands of the Patriarch of the Xu family. She also ruined the Patriarch’s first marriage and made herself the legitimate wife, however, the Xu family, including the Patriarch, ha ted her for ki lling the Matriarch, so the Patriarch ostracized her and her daughter from ever stepping foot into the Xu estate.

As for Piper, she was still a Xu, but only in name. She cannot use the power and influence of the Xu family. But because Piper was stubborn, she forcefully carved her presence in the hearts and minds of everyone in Country M. So even though her family does not accept her, everyone knows that she was the Young Miss of the Xu family.

“Nephew!” She screamed, halting Davis in place.

He was surprised that she called him that for the first time ever.

Piper laughed derisively. “You all are wicked. You are wicked!!” She screamed with tears gathering in hèr eyes.

“I am a daughter of the Xu family. The old Patriarch brought me into this world, yet he abandoned me and you too. Everyone abandoned me!

1/4

1 am Your little Aunt, but even a servant in your family isn’t disregarded like you disregard me.

Alpha chaos and Rex are also my older brothers, but they too ha te me, all for a sin I did not commit!!” At the mention of Maverick’s name, a few people in different private rooms that were watching the incident on the TV in the rooms looked surprised while one of them chuckled.

Private rooms were supposed to be quiet and these rooms are not excepted from that rule, Even though they could see what was happening from the windows, it doesn’t mean they could hear their voices, which was why TVs are placed in the rooms for different reasons.

Meanwhile, the person Maverick was holding a meeting with looked at Maverick in surprise. “She said she’s your sister too, right.”

“Not minding your business might get your tongue ripped out,” Maverick warned nonchalantly.

“Haha… forget I said anything.” The person laughed awkwardly. Was Maverick someone he could mess with?

Piper’s voice drifted over again. “Do you even know that today is my 21st birthday?”She forcefully wiped her tears and continued. “Why are you people treating me this way?! Other people have siblings and are proud of them but me? I’m made to hide my existence, but not anymore!!”

She got down from the stage and ran out of the club with her friends going after her. The guards didn’t stop her because, even though their Master might make it seem like he doesn’t care about her, he really did.

In fact, Davis liked Piper but was indifferent to her because he was scared of having a weakness. People like Damien won’t think twice to ki ll Piper just to provoke him.

As for Maverick and Rex, Piper’s life and death mean nothing to them.

After she left, Davis swept his gaze through everyone in the club with threatening eyes. He dared them to go reveal what just happened to the world.

As he was about to leave, someone’s chuckle and taunting voice drifted into his ear.

“Dear Chaos, I thought your heartlessness would have subsided after your sister cried so much. She even went dancing with riffraffs just to get your attention, but still, you pretended to not have ears. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Your kind of heart is frightening.”

Davis curled his lips into a wicked smile and headed in the direction of the voice.

“Are you also going to keep me quiet, just like your sister?… Clap, clap, clap… I’m feeling bad now, right now Chaos, it’s making me want to ruin this place, what do you say?” The voice came again.

Maverick finally raised his head to look at the person standing away from him with a laptop that was showing Damien on the screen.

“Come out of your hideout,” he said languidly.

“Of course, not! You are crazy. Hehehe… You almost destroyed my legs with those bullets of yours. Now I’m receiving treatment and you want me to come out? You are wicked.” He frowned. Maverick looked at the guard holding the laptop and commanded, “Get out!”

The guard was about to put off the laptop when Damien glared at the guard. “You dare!!”

2/4

The guard got a fright and immediately turned the laptop to face Maverick, but unfortunately, Maverick wasn’t in the mood for ps ychopathic play, so he picked up a knife from God knows where and flung it at the screen. The knife launched right into the middle of the screen, turning it blank. “Now you can get out.” He commanded again in a flat tune.

The guard belonged to Damien, so he turned around and left without bowing.

Just after he left, Davis appeared and sat down uninvited. “Maverick, the Boss of Heartlessness, just as heartless as his name,” he said sarcastically.

“Thanks for the compliment,” Maverick answered without sparing Davis a glance.

“You dared to do that to my family in my absence.”

“Even in your presence, what revenge can you take?” Maverick finally looked at him with chilly coldness emitting from his chocolate eyes.

“Am I so worthless in your eyes?” Davis didn’t sound or look angry.

“Aren’t you worthless in your own eyes?” Maverick threw the question back to him. 2

“No,” he replied.

“Then you are blind.” Maverick stopped talking to him and continued doing his business with the man sitting beside Davis. (1)

“Maverick, I challenge you to the bidding contest. Whoever wins, rules.”

Maverick looked at him like he was st upid and shook his head, “not interested…”

“Are you scared-”

“But Rex is.” Maverick cut him off just like Davis didn’t allow Maverick to finish.

“Maverick, are you looking down on me?” Now, Davis was getting angry. How could Maverick not put him in his eyes? Because of this attitude of his was why he experimented on his son, hoping Maverick

would take notice of him and start to beg him for suppression pills but instead Maverick did something else than what he expected. 3

Maverick would rather talk to the old Patriarch than talk to Davis. To Maverick, Davis was still a child. What an insult to a thirty-year-old man!

Davis is thirty, just like Maverick and Damien, but Maverick considered him a child because Davis is very obedient to the Organization and dares not to denounce them like Maverick, or disobey them like Damien.

Davis laughed out loud. “Why am I complaining when you don’t put anyone in your eyes? Even the Organization is considered shi t to you, but the reality is that if the organization wants you dead, you won’t know how you d ie. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

“Go find yourself a woman. Your life needs a little spice.”

With that, Maverick closed the chapter with Davis. No matter what Davis said, Maverick kept Mum about it, angering the guy until he left.

“Alpha chaos, that was brilliant!” the businessman said with a smile, trying to su ck up to Maverick.

3/4

“Do I need your validation? The deal is off, get out.”

One of the many things Maverick ha ted was for a man to li ck someone’s ass just to be in that person’s good books. To Maverick, ones skills and determination give them a point in his heart.

The man couldn’t believe he lost the deal he was about to sign because he said the wrong thing. Trying to apologize to Maverick would only make things worse, so he got up with sh ame and was about to leave through the door when someone blocked him.

Looking for a place where you could get all the tough guys of the Country? Then you are at the right place. ‘Drunk money!
