Mrs. and Mr. Smith-Chapter 582 - : Everyone is Shocked!

Chapter 582: Chapter 582: Everyone is Shocked!

Ethan Smith silently nodded.

From the attitude towards Mr. Dawson by the others, one could tell how high his status was.

As soon as Mr. Dawson took the stage, the conference had officially begun.

He presented a document that seemed to be targeted at various industries.

For instance, the Divine Alchemist Pavilion and the Capital City Martial Arts Association, which represented Martial Arts.

Ethan Smith was not particularly interested in these. He couldn’t contribute much to the conversation, so he sat quietly.

The whole meeting was solemn and serious, with everyone taking notes diligently.

Not for any other reason, but because Mr. Dawson represented the official view this time. ƒreewebɳovel.com

The meeting lasted quite a long time, with Ethan Smith listening attentively.

About two hours later, the meeting finally reached its conclusion.

Mr. Dawson put away the document with a smile, “This meeting is basically over now, does anyone have any comments or suggestions?”

“No, no, of course not,” someone responded quickly, “we will comply with all arrangements.”

“Indeed, Mr. Dawson, you have worked hard, we will comply strictly in accordance with the standards.”

Mr. Dawson nodded. As he stood up smiling, he said, “In that case…”

“Wait a minute.” At this moment, Ethan Smith suddenly stood up.

All eyes were on Ethan Smith, their eyes filled with surprise and confusion!

What was Ethan Smith trying to do? Was he really going to make a suggestion?

“Ethan Smith, do not spout nonsense.” The Pavilion Master seemed to say deliberately.

Mr. Dawson at the front looked towards Ethan Smith, smiling, “Who is this gentleman?”

“Hello Mr. Dawson, my name is Ethan Smith, an ordinary person with no fame.” Ethan Smith replied.

“Ethan Smith…” Mr. Dawson seemed to ponder over the name.

After a while, he laughed, “I have heard of your name. Not long ago, you caused quite a disturbance for the little girl from the Taylor family and Dexter Blair from the Blair family, right?”

Ethan Smith slightly bowed and acknowledged, “Yes, Mr. Dawson.”

Mr. Dawson sat down again, smiling, “If you have something to say, just say it.”

Ethan Smith glanced at everyone, and after taking a deep breath, he said slowly, “Mr. Dawson, though I stand alone, I can represent a part of the martial arts world. I believe what I will say today is what they would like to express.”

Upon saying this, Ethan Smith pointed at Davy Barnett and coldly asked, “I want to question, the cultivation resources in the world are for all of us to share, right?”

Mr. Dawson thought for a moment and nodded, “Correct, even though these resources belong to the nation, anyone can participate in cultivation.”

Ethan Smith spoke gravely, “I don’t understand, then. Why are all the martial arts resources wholly occupied by the Capital City Martial Arts Association?”

“They monopolized all the resources, and no one except for their members can participate!”

“Mr. Dawson, do you think this is fair? Or is this something you implicitly approved?”

As soon as these words came out, it made everyone in the room break out in a cold sweat!

“This Ethan Smith is absolutely mad!” someone muttered to themselves.

“I knew this kid was reckless from the start, I just didn’t expect him to be this audacious.”

“Martha Evans bringing him here is just inciting misfortune.”

Davy Barnett, on the other hand, sneered incessantly.

Ethan Smith was questioning Mr. Dawson? He was merely asking for his own death!

“Perhaps we won’t need to lift a finger after all,” Davy Barnett sneered internally.

“Ethan Smith, shut up! Stop talking nonsense!” Ignacio Burke coughed and rebuked him.

“How can you talk to Mr. Dawson like this! Sit down immediately!”

However, Ethan Smith paid no attention, his eyes were locked onto Mr. Dawson, as if awaiting his answer.

Mr. Dawson laughed and waved his hand, “Everyone, don’t be so uptight. Since we’ve invited you here, you should put forward any suggestions you may have.”

“I actually find that Ethan Smith’s presence added some vitality to this meeting.”

Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but feel surprised!

Could it be that Mr. Dawson was really going to answer Ethan Smith’s question?

Mr. Dawson seemed to perceive everyone’s thoughts. He smiled and said, “Not only am I going to directly answer Ethan Smith’s question today, but I also intend to resolve this issue.”

Afterwards, he looked at Davy Barnett, “Is what Ethan Smith said true?”

With an awkward expression, Davy Barnett hastily stood up and said, “Mr. Dawson, the thing is, we…”

“Yes or no, without too much unnecessary talk.” Mr. Dawson interjected with a smile.

Davy Barnett stiffly admitted, “Yes.”

Mr. Dawson gave a faint nod, “Even though our upper management is somewhat lenient towards your Martial Arts Association, it does not mean they will ignore it.”

“Ethan Smith is right, your Capital City Martial Arts Association has to assume some responsibilities.”

Ethan Smith kept the ball rolling, “The Capital City Martial Arts Association has hoarded all resources, and all these resources are biased towards sons and daughters of big families!”

“Moreover, if ordinary people like us try to participate, they even imprison us!”

Mr. Dawson looked at Davy Barnett and again asked with a smile, “Is it true?”

“Yes… yes…” Davy Barnett stiffly replied.

Mr. Dawson gave a faint nod, “Alright, I will resolve this matter today.”

He looked at Davy Barnett, “Has the Capital City Martial Arts Association hoarded all of the resources?”

Davy Barnett nodded, “A portion of the resources, we have indeed consolidated.”

“You should make this portion of resources public and available to everyone; you should figure out a reasonable mechanism for this,” Mr. Dawson said.

“Davy Barnett, can you do it?” Mr. Dawson asked.

Davy Barnett hurriedly stood up and said, “Yes, certainly…”

Mr. Dawson gave a slight nod, then he seemed to casually say, “Davy, the Capital City Martial Arts Association should not consider itself as an official body, understand?”

Upon hearing this, Davy Barnett broke out in a cold sweat!

His words seemed casual, but they contained a warning!

“I… I understand, rest assured…” Davy Barnett hastily nodded.

“And another thing,” Mr. Dawson took a sip from his teacup.

Subsequently, he continued, “Your Capital City Martial Arts Association should always have evidence in its affairs, and know its limits. You can’t just do what you want.”

“Yes, rest assured…” Davy Barnett kept nodding.

Mr. Dawson grunted in response, and then he turned to Ethan Smith, “Ethan Smith, do you have anything else to say?”

Ethan Smith gritted his teeth. He was about to ask Mr. Dawson to help Emily Taylor out.

At this moment, the Pavilion Master reached out and tugged at Ethan Smith, giving a slight shake of his head.

Seeing this, Ethan Smith had no choice but to take a deep breath and then nod, “Thank you, Mr. Dawson, I have no further questions.”

“Well, if nobody else has any other questions, let’s conclude the meeting.” Mr. Dawson gathered his documents and stood up to make the announcement.

After Mr. Dawson had left, everyone looked at Ethan Smith with peculiar expressions.

Ethan Smith didn’t pay attention to people’s stares. He turned to the Pavilion Master, “Lord Pavilion Master, why did you stop me from continuing earlier?”

The Pavilion Master glanced at Ethan Smith and said, “You wanted Mr. Dawson to meddle in your personal affairs? That would be overstepping your boundaries and not appreciating the help you have received.”

Ethan Smith opened his mouth, then slumped his head dejectedly.

“Alright, today you already gained a considerable right,” said the Pavilion Master.

“The Capital City Martial Arts Association has monopolized the resources for many years, and this time, they will likely bleed.”

“You need to seize this opportunity to cultivate as soon as possible.”
