Life at the Top

The scene changed rapidly in a split second.

It was still a harmonious dinner a minute ago, yet it had turned into a battlefield of life and death instantly.

Zane shrieked as Henry threw the chair at him. While he had managed to escape being fatally injured, Zane did end up falling to the floor on his butt.

Looking at the shattered chair, Zane broke out in a cold sweat.

“Are you f*cking crazy, Henry?! Are you actually trying to kill me?” Zane roared.

Quarrels between trust-fund children went no further than a harsh one-sided beating. A broken bone or two were already the worst injuries that one could come out with.

After all, they all belonged to the same circle, and there the differences in the statuses between them were often minor. Not to mention, their parents were also part of the picture.

Any deaths would result in a bloody fight between the families until one of them was completely destroyed.

Be it Zane, Henry, or even Mitch, they had all held back when they quarreled in the past.

Yet, upon seeing how Henry was coming for his neck this time, Zane did not have too many inhibitions either.

“Aren’t you afraid that my dad’ll come after your entire f*cking family?”

Henry scoffed and spoke, oozing with a sinister aura, “As if Bob Lancaster, that f*cking wimp, would dare do anything to my dad.

“The only reason why your dad, some B-list figure, could make a name for himself during these last few years isn’t cus he’s good, it’s because we four richest families decide to keep a low profile! Somehow you think that makes you the sh*t?”

“Henry!”

Mitch had no choice but to step up upon seeing the situation take a turn for the worse. Staring at Henry, he clenched his jaw and spoke, “This matter is between us and Jasper. Why’re you so angry about it?”

Henry snickered and replied, “Are you f*cking stupid or do you just not have a brain to use?
