“M-Mr. Campbell...”
Thinking about what he had just done and the audaciousness he had shown, Jose collapsed onto the ground, trembling.
As for Laszlo, he managed to maintain his composure since he was still oblivious to his son's foolish actions.
From his perspective, Harold—regardless of how influential he was—wouldn't take action against the Fields family over a few insolent words uttered by his son.
“You shouldn't have done such a stupid thing, and more importantly, not acted so audaciously in front of me. Now, the Fields family will vanish in the annals of history because of an idiot like you!” Harold snapped at Jose.
Even though Harold frowned upon taking action on ordinary folk, Jose's actions had crossed a line.
Therefore, there was no way he could calm his anger until he taught the latter a lesson.
His words naturally gave Laszlo a shock.
“Mr. Campbell, I'm well aware of how powerful you are, but how can you destroy the Fields family just because my son talked back to you?” the indignant Laszlo protested.
“I'm obviously not that petty to eliminate the Fields family over a few insulting words. Therefore, you had better ask your son about what he has done first before questioning my decision!”
The grim way Harold made his assertion inadvertently convinced Laszlo, who felt his heart sink.
A bad feeling rose in his gut as he turned to look at his son.
“What in the world did you do to Mr. Campbell? You had better come clean right away!” Laszlo thundered at the shivering Jose, capturing the attention of the guests in attendance.

“Dad, I... put a drug in Mr. Campbell and Ms. Schmidt's tubs and called in the paparazzi to take pictures of them in a compromising situation. Moreover, the reporters have already left with the pictures!”
Toward the end, Jose broke down in tears.
Given how afraid Dellmoor's Big Three are of him, the Fields family is truly finished!
Jose's sobs quickly caught the attention of the leaving guests.
“W-Why did you do something like that?”
Jose's words almost caused Laszlo to burst a vessel as the already gloomy expression on the latter's face darkened further.
He was baffled as to why his usually responsible son would end up committing such a foolish mistake.
“The girl I like has been growing close to Mr. Campbell. Therefore, I thought Mr. Campbell—”
Jose stopped mid-sentence, too embarrassed to continue.
“Pfft!”
Infuriated, the solemn-looking Laszlo coughed out a mouthful of blood.
This b*stard ended up making such a horrendous mistake just because of his jealousy over a woman! What have I done to deserve this?
Meanwhile, the commotion had drawn the attention of many guests.
Nonetheless, they were being held back by Craig, Philip, and James.
When the crowd saw Dellmoor's Big Three preventing them from coming any closer, all of them gawked at the sight.
At the same time, they began to wonder who that young man was to have Dellmoor's Big Three controlling the crowd for him.
As for Laszlo and Jose—members of the second most powerful family in Dellmoor—their faces turned pale while their bodies trembled in front of the young man.
