Chapter 1252 The Queens Are the Slaves

"Smack!"

The slapping sound echoed in the bar.

Conan's men and thug friends shuddered in fright.

They tucked their heads in.

They did not watch Mathias tell Conan off. It was a matter between family.

Conan held his hand to his face for a while before pulling himself together. He flipped out and shouted, "What's that about, Mathias?

"You stopped me from getting even with my attacker, and now, you hit me.

"Are you trying to make me cut ties with you?"

Conan's eyes went red.

He had always been close with Mathias. The frequent backstabbing and fighting between wealthy family members did not exist in their family.

When Conan lost fights as a child, Mathias would always stick up for him without hesitation.

Today, Mathias laid a hand on him because of a moocher.

Conan was on the verge of blowing up.

"Smack!"

Mathias responded with another slap.

This time, he came down heavily and harder on Conan.

"You can decide whether to cut ties."

Mathias said in a cold voice, "But like I said, you can take the hits from Kaze."

"What did you say?"

Livid, Conan widened his eyes and stared at Mathias in disbelief.

His brother felt like a stranger to him.

Mathias even went as far as to threaten to sever ties with him just so he would not resist Kaze's bullying. "Why?

"Tell me why, Mathias!

"He mooches off his wife, and his wife works for our family. You're part of the Queen family. Yet, you suck up to a slave."

Conan's exasperated cries echoed across the bar.

He was baffled.

The change in his brother was inexplicable.

"My wife works for the Queens? A slave? Ha."

Kaze scoffed and said callously, "Tell me who's working for whom, Mathias. Who is the slave?"

"Of course."

Amid the surprised looks, Mathias nodded at Kaze before looking back. He said in a stern voice, "Listen up, Conan.

"The Queens work for Ms. Darcy Quint.

"I am a slave to Mr. Lee.

"Mr. Lee was kind enough to let me address him by his first name.

"I was supposed to call him my master."

Holy shit!

Conan was dumbstruck.

His mind went blank.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

It was hard to believe that the Queens worked for Kaze's wife.

Mathias, the future successor of the family, called himself a slave to Kaze. Conan was shocked.

His men and misbehaving gangster pals were stunned.

Kaze was supposed to be a moocher who took his wife's last name.

Even Greg and his people from the Red Foundation looked down on Kaze.

Yet, Kaze turned out to be the master of the Butterworth Queens.

What did he do to receive such honors?

The crowd looked at Kaze in a different light.

The previous disdain tumed into fear and reverence.

They could not read the young man.

It all made sense now that they reflected on what Kaze said and did to Conan.

That was how a master would speak to a slave.
