“K—Kyle?” Todd was confused, looking up at Kyle and wondering why Peter kicked him. “Why are you kicking me, Peter? Who is Kyle?”

Slap!

Peter slapped Todd in the face again and said exasperatedly, “This is Kyle. Kyle Hayes!”

“K—Kyle Hayes?” Todd was utterly dumbfounded upon hearing what Peter said, and so did others at the scene as they looked at the man in the suit in front of them with a frightened face.

It was not after a long while that Todd came out of his shock and fell to his knees, kowtowing to Kyle with a pleading voice. “I’m sorry, Kyle. I was too blind and didn’t recognize you at once. I wouldn’t have dared to talk to you like that if I had known who you were.”

“I came here with Mr. McDonald. I heard that some of you seem to have offended Mr. McDonald,” Kyle said in a flat tone.

“M—Mr. McDonald?” Todd was kneeling on the ground, and It stunned him when he heard that. When he looked up at Connor, his face was ashen and his body shivered in fear.

Connor walked over to Todd tardily. “I remember right here earlier in this lounge, you enjoyed humiliating me, right?”

“Mr. McDonald, it—it was my fault. I shot off the mouth and was too blind and ignorant. I wouldn’t have dared to insult you if I had known that it was you.”

How could Todd had ever imagined that a poor food delivery guy would be Mr. McDonald, who even Kyle had to respect? But, he did not have time to think much about it now and could only kowtow while begging Connor to let him off.

“Did you hear what I just said?” Connor asked Todd in a flat tone.

“What did you say?” Todd was stunned for a moment before he looked up at Connor.

Connor extended his right leg in front of Todd and went straight to the point. “I told you that my shoes are a little dirty.”

Todd swallowed hard and turned to look at Peter, banking his hope on him. However, Peter knew exactly who Kyle was. And since Connor was getting so much respect from Kyle, it said a lot about Connor’s background.

“Mr. McDonald said his shoes were dirty. Didn’t you hear him?” Kyle hissed.

“Y—yes, yes, I heard him.” Feeling frightened, Todd squatted down and stuck his tongue out as he was ready to lick Connor’s shoe. But, Connor pulled his foot away all of a sudden.

Todd looked confused and moved his head to follow Connor’s foot. But, Connor moved his foot away again.

“Mr. McDonald, what do you mean by that?” Todd glanced up at Connor and asked in puzzlement.

“Nothing. Just that your dirty mouth disgusts me,” Connor said flatly.

Todd was rooted to the spot, looking embarrassed before he reluctantly said to Connor, “Absolutely, absolutely. My mouth is dirty. I’m not worthy of licking your shoe.”

“Forget about licking my shoe. I’d like to hear you bark like a dog,” Connor said softly.

“Absolutely! Absolutely! Woof, woof, woof, woof…” Todd had been so frightened by Kyle that he did not dare to disobey Connor. He crouched on the ground and started barking. Everyone looked on and tried very hard not to laugh.

After that, Connor looked at Kyle and said in a low voice, “Let’s go, Kyle.”

Peter broke out in a cold sweat when he heard what Connor said. Who would have thought that the high-and-mighty godfather of Porthampton was now playing second fiddle to Connor? That made Peter even more curious about Connor’s identity.

“Yes, Mr. McDonald.” Kyle respectfully agreed, then he followed Connor out of the private lounge.

Stunned for a moment, Peter then picked up the $100,000 on the table, quickly ran after Connor, and smiled. “I’m so sorry about today, Mr. McDonald. I didn’t mean to offend you. Please take this money back, Mr. McDonald.”

“Keep the money. This little money is nothing to me.” Connor replied in an indifferent tone and left the private lounge without even looking at Peter.

Holding the $100,000 in his hands, Peter stood on the spot, looking embarrassed and puzzled.

If Connor was just as Todd said—a poor kid who made a living delivering food—how could he know someone like Kyle and not care about $100,000?

Todd was still on his knees with a hurt look on his face..
