Chapter 1230: Chapter 1230 Chloe Collins feels distressed when Alexander Foster gets beaten up_1
"Chapter 1230
"I had come to offer a gift to Mr. Bush."
"A gift?" Jerry River squeezed out these words with a sarcastic laugh.
Alexander Foster spoke unhurriedly, "I heard that Mr. Bush is a fan of ancient martial arts. As it so happens, I have a Broken Crimson Blade in my collection."
The mention of the Broken Crimson Blade immediately caught Jerry’s attention.
He glanced at Alexander Foster then to Chloe Collins.
"The gift is in the car outside. If Mr. Bush likes it, I can have my driver bring it in."
Jerry squinted, his imposing aura dimming by half.
Chloe looked at Alexander again.
He was always calm and composed, with an overpowering presence that indicated he was in control at all times. Now, however, he was deliberately toning down his sharp edge to appeal to Jerry River’s preferences.
This was the attitude of someone asking a favor. He knew this well.
It was the first time Chloe saw him trying to please someone else, although it was for her sake.
She felt uneasy.
Suddenly, Jerry laughed, "What’s so great about the Broken Crimson Blade? I’m old and don’t enjoy such violent things."
He refused.
Chloe noted he was fighting the desire for the Blade, making her wonder what was the cause of his restraint.
"You want the X-5, don’t you?" He cut to the chase.
Seeing the earnestness in Chloe and Alexander’s eyes, he laughed, "I assure you, I have it! Not only that but I have also developed a substitute that works better than it. You can have it too, but there’s a condition!"
He looked at Alex, "I want the Broken Crimson Blade, and I want you to take three punches from me to vent my anger for my beloved apprentice!"
Without needing to explain further, they both understood what he meant.
Jerry was out to seek revenge for his apprentice, Mane York.
Alex gave Chloe a calm look, then said to Jerry, "I will not fight back."
Jerry let out a cold laugh, suddenly stood up, and started to approach Alexander.
He clenched his fist and aimed it at Alexander’s face.
The next second, a rush of wind descended and his punch was blocked by a hand.
Seeing the young girl who suddenly appeared in front of him, Jerry was astounded!
"You ..."
"Alexander grabbed Chloe’s hand, shook his head slightly, indicating that she was okay.
Chloe ignored him, stared firmly at Jerry, "Please bring out the X."
Jerry’s face froze, then he burst into laughter, "You don’t believe me? If you do not, then please leave! Goodbye!"
"Sure." Chloe was not provoked by his words, she pulled Alexander to their feet.
Alexander with a reflexive grab, held her back saying, "You wait outside for me, I’ll handle this negotiations"
Chloe looked back at him, "He will not give it. I will not tolerate this humiliation. You shouldn’t either."
Alexander chuckled softly and asked, "In your eyes, am I so easily bullied?"
He gently brushed her nose with his thumb, "Rest assured, I have a plan."
"No matter what your plan is, he wants to hit you, and I will not allow it." She held a firm, resolute look in her eyes.
Compassion brimmed in his eyes as he softly said to her, "Chlo-Chlo, this isn’t a big deal. A true gentleman can submit as easily as stand tall."
Chloe fell silent.
He turned to Jerry and said, "I accept your terms."
Jerry curled his lips in satisfaction, "Good! Little girl, you may watch from the side, but no leaving!"
He rolled up his sleeves, planning in his mind to knock Alexander down with one punch, and stomping him once for the satisfaction.
This time, he not only drew up all of his strength but also took off with a sprint. His movement wasn’t quite a punch, it looked more like a flying kick.
