Chapter 1220

Chapter 1220:

Healy wasn’t backing down. He pressed forward with renewed fury, his words dripping with venom.

“Ha!” he spat.

“Everyone knows how you climbed to the top—through the sewers! Your character is as filthy as your methods. I wouldn’t lower myself to compete with someone like you!”

“That’s rich coming from you!” Lilian taunted.

“If you’re so above it all, why did you even enter the NCI?”

She gracefully rolled away from Healy’s incoming strike, creating tactical distance between them. Her lips curved into a cruel smirk as she continued, “If you’re such a paragon of virtue, why not defeat me with your precious honorable methods? Oh wait—can you even manage that?”

Healy’s jaw tightened as he clenched his fists tightly, glaring at Lilian’s arrogant look. Many people around them were already taking videos with their phones. Healy’s friend whispered to him, urging him to be practical and not argue with Lilian anymore.

This scene made him feel both sad and indignant. He had participated in countless business ventures and activities, hoping to carve out a respectable reputation for himself. Yet, the world of Estresa’s elite had been thrown into chaos by the Perkins family. Now, was it wrong to play fair and square in business? At the thought of this, Healy decided not to back down.

“Who says I can’t?”

“Oh?” Lilian stared at Healy with a strange expression, as if he was a big joke.

She raised an eyebrow and asked, “Healy, don’t you know I am number one now? What makes you think you can win against me? What can you do to win against me? Aren’t you afraid of humiliating yourself after talking so big?”

“That’s right! Healy, we’re all in the same circle. Is it that hard to admit that Miss Perkins is excellent?”

“What are honorable methods? What a joke! Only an idiot will believe in playing fair and square.”

The crowd that had gathered around was all on Lilian’s side, who spread her arms smugly.

She sneered.

“Did you hear that, Healy? No one here believes you. You strut around like you belong, like you have the strength to compete. You know what? Take my advice. Pack up whatever pride you have left, take your failing Welch family, and leave Estresa. This place isn’t some elegant hall you dream of ruling. This is a den of iniquity.”

“Lilian is right. Get out of Estresa.”

“We’ve had enough of the Welch family. They no longer have a place here.”

Many people who held grudges against the Welch family started putting pressure on Healy. While he listened to them humiliating his family, a fire of anger burned fiercely in his heart.

He suddenly said, “Lilian, do you dare to make a bet with me?”

Lilian looked at him with eyes filled with amusement.

“Bet? What are you betting on?”

“That I can beat you. If I lose, the Welch family will leave Estresa. But if I win, you must apologize to the Welch family and take the Perkins family out of here.”
