Luna's shouting was giving him a headache. He needed to get as far away from this trouble as possible, and the faster, the better.
What kind of big shot had this couple managed to offend?
The other party had already revealed their identity. Yet, Luna continued to push forward, oblivious to the Manger she was in, still causing a scene,
A complete lack of respect, understanding when to back off, and that kind of arrogance? It was a recipe for disaster.
Samuel shook his head as he heard Luna still screaming and ranting in the hotel lobby.
That woman from the Shaws was too prideful, too reckless. No matter how she became a professor, her lack of humility would be her downfall.
She still had no trace of scholarly discipline, did she?
All of this was a result of being spoiled by the Shaws!
She thought she was the queen of the world and that everything had to revolve around her wishes.
She didn't realize the world was entire of influential people-no one would let her be so willful and entitled.
Even if the Shaws were wealthy, they were still just a second-tier family in Brookhaven.
Even if they were one of the wealthiest families in the country, so what?
Within the three realms, there's always a power limit."
Seeing Samuel and Jasmine hurry out of the hotel like they were escaping a plague, Luna gritted her teeth in fury. "You bunch of shallow people, once my family handles this matter, I'm going to expose everything about you! "If I don't ruin your lives and make you lose everything, then I'm not one of the Shaws!"
Samuel felt a chill in his heart."This crazy woman's lost it! D'mn, she was in her woman's fifties-shte really thought she was still as young and influential as the Shaws' young lady?"
"Keep going with your tantrum, but don't forget, refusing to bow to authority will get you killed!"
Luna's shouting continued, but no one paid her any attention.
It wasn't until she noticed the almost empty hotel lobby that something was wrong
Aside from Robin and his group, the only other people left were Caesar, Desmond, Scott, and over a hundred bodyguards.
She hurried over to Scott, who looked dazed and lost in thought. "Scott! Scott, why aren't you making a
move?"

In Scott's mind, a fierce internal struggle was taking place.

Caesar. Desmond, and even Samuel's behavior had made it crystal clear that the man in Room 403 was someone he absolutely could not touch.
Samuel, with his authority, had shown nothing but deference to the young man.
And what was he, Scott?
No matter his money or influence, he was just a small-time thug in the criminal underworld.
Despite having so many friends, Scott knew that if the military came after them under the pretense of ant anti-terrorism or anti-crime operation, it would be perfectly justified, legal, and above board. Once they were labeled as terrorists or criminals, there would be no escaping their fate. Scott would be utterly finished.
Seeing Scott was still in a daze, Luna grabbed his arm and shook him urgently. "Scott, what are you hesitating about?
"If they don't back us up, we'll take care of this ourselves!
"What's the big deal? Aren't those just a bunch of young punks from Harmonfield's crew? With so many of us, are you still scared of them?"
Scott pulled Luna's hand off his arm. "Luna, you're out of your mind! Can't you see the situation here?
"Samuel, someone with his position, is still deferring to Robin. That means he really is someone high-ranking in the military!!
"Do you think the Ferons can go up against the national machinery?

I'm realistic. No matter how much money I have, I'm just a low-level thug in this underworld.
"I go up against them, and if things escalate, we'll all end up dead!
"Luna, we need to back off. Some people aren't ones we can afford to provoke
Luna was stunned.
She never expected that the leader of the black market in the provincial capital, Marco, known for his ruthless ways, would be the one to say something like this, admitting defeat "Scott, what do you mean by this? Do you want me to bow down to that lowlife? The Shaws can't lose face like that!"
Scott sighed deeply. "Luna, if we don't lose face, we might lose our lives."
Before Scott could finish, Luna scoffed. "The Shaws can shake Brookhaven with a stomp, and he's just a dog for the Harmonfield and the Dunns. What can he do to me?! "Scott, are you going to do something or not?"
Scott looked around the eerily quiet hotel lobby, his heart tightening. "Luna, I don't want to die."
"Fine! If none of you want to stand up for me, I'll handle this myself!"

Chapter 461 The Power Play
Luna's mind suddenly flashed back to her first love, Chuck.
He was the chief director of the Legal Department at Brookhaven TV Statio
They hadn't been in contact for more than ten years after college but reconnected at a reunion last year.

was like dry tinder catching fire when they met again-their old passions ignited immediately.
Over the past year, they'd met nearly every week, and he had treated her like a queen, fulfilling her every
need.
Ninking about how devoted Chuck had been to her, her heart began to race,
Chuck had once pounded his chest and promised that if Luna ever faced any injustice, he would use his position as the unchallenged king in his field to settle it for her!:
Luna let out a cold, mocking laugh. I don't believe I can't use the power of media and public opinion to take care of you a
all!
With that thought, she immediately dialed Chuck's number. "Chuck. I miss you so much.
"Where are you? I'm at Brookhaven Hotel, and they've been bullying me.
"You know so many experts in the media world. You have to help me."
A man's comforting voice came through on the other end of the line. "Darling, don't cry. I'll be there soon. Don't worry, anyone who's wronged you, I'll unleash the full force of public opinion on them and tear them apart!"
