In fact, the punch Christopher received earlier did not hurt as much as the sight before him.

"Mr. Iverson! Are you alright?!"

Taylor, who had been waiting in the shadows, was terrified and immediately ran over to help his boss.

"I'm fine." Christopher staggered to his feet, swallowing the blood in his mouth, his gaze fixed on Justin with a sinister and ruthless intensity, like a starved hyena.

"If you can't accept it, we can settle this between just the two of us." Justin's cold, piercing gaze bore down on Christopher like a massive stone pressing on his chest. "I'll even let you use both hands." Hearing this, Bella grew alarmed, tugging anxiously on Justin's muscular arm.

She thought, 'What a fool... Why is he talking about honor and fairness with this bastard? He should just hold Christopher's head down and beat him to a pulp!'

"Hmm... There's no need for that." Christopher didn't want to get into a fist fight with Justin in front of the woman he loved. Instead, he chose to suppress his anger.

Christopher wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb and said, "I just have bad luck."
