Chapter 384: 378: He Should Be Restricted From This Industry

“Mr. Emery, I’m sorry, but Real Madrid can’t help you, and I doubt anyone can. If you’re not foolish, you should know what offending Finn Lewis means. As for the so-called ‘murder’ you just mentioned, I can tell you, if he did do that, you wouldn’t find any fault with it. But he didn’t do it, clearly, he just wants your player to remember this lesson for life. I suggest you not to offend him either. You’re an agent, if you have no players, your career is over.” Florentino found himself saying more than he usually would.

After stating this, Florentino signaled for Emery to be escorted out. Leaving Florentino’s house, Emery’s spirit seemed a little lost. Once he got into the car, a worried voice came from the other side, “Emery, how did it go? Did Mr. Florentino agree?”

Looking at Elias’s haggard face, Emery let out a bitter smile. If Elias hadn’t acted out impulsively back then, would they be in this spot now? He recalled a saying he’d learned from Flame Nation: you bring about your own misery if you ask for trouble. There was no doubt that Emery was aware of this saying, as he had recently learned a lot about Flame Nation in order to address Elias’s issue, proof of his dedication as an agent.

“I’m sorry, Elias. There’s nothing I can do.” Emery shook his head.

“Why? Why is this happening?!” Elias was stunned, as if he had been hit hard, sitting in the passenger’s seat with a face full of disbelief.

He couldn’t understand why Finn Lewis would do such a thing over something so minor. It’s a lot of South Federation currency involved! It’s not just paper!

Emery smiled bitterly again. He took Florentino’s words to heart. He suddenly felt that people like Finn Lewis… truly frustrating. His actions are entirely unlike common people. If Lewis used his power, Elias would not only apologize but could even kneel for three days and three nights per Lewis’s instruction.

But Lewis didn’t. Moreover, he didn’t exert any pressure on you. He just used brute strength, crushing you to despair without providing any chance of retaliation. That is the pure domination of power, the kind where you can’t find any faults or weaknesses to exploit. In this way, even if it was exposed and reported worldwide, no punishment could be imposed on Finn Lewis, not from FIFA either!

Everything he did was legal, and he even spent a huge amount of money on it. To put it bluntly, he really is trying to crush you with money. Emery did not suggest going to the media, primarily because their power can’t match theirs. Even if the media do report it, it would not cause any impact on the world, especially since Elias himself also did nothing right in this incident.

After sending Emery off, Florentino wasn’t in a good mood. He too felt frustrated, even though he hadn’t agreed to help Emery. It felt like having Finn Lewis, like a massive mountain, pressing down on him. Florentino didn’t know where to start if he wanted to fight back. This powerless feeling vexed him greatly.

Florentino was not a man to accept defeat. In a lousy mood, he began to complain.

The next day, several Sperian Kingdom media outlets reported Florentino’s rant in a headline news. “I believe that FIFA should formulate a law limiting people like Finn Lewis from entering the football field. As top-tier tycoons like Lewis entering the football field will strip the field of any competitiveness.”

Upon the release of this piece of news, people in the sports world who saw this news sprayed out the tea water in their mouths in disbelief. Could you be any more shameless? Before Finn Lewis came into the picture, weren’t you guys at Real Madrid the rule-breakers? Isn’t every elite club a rule-breaker?

It’s just that now, a wealthier person has emerged, someone with more money than you, Zelle Elite, and began taking people from your hands. Florentino’s rant has left the world, those who understand football, speechless. Florentino’s words couldn’t possibly be true.

Would FIFA dare to do so? If they did, FIFA wouldn’t be far from dissolution. Hence, Florentino’s words are destined to be just complaints. However, these complaints gave fans quite some entertainment. Seeing the wheel of fortune turn and Florentino having a taste of his own medicine, especially the smaller clubs, was immensely satisfying.

Even though Finn Lewis had nothing to do with them, seeing the elite clubs who had bullied them being bullied by others was exhilarating. His criticism received the agreement of many elite club managers and middle-aged people, and even some head coaches, but the middle-aged group of the smaller clubs surprisingly sided with Finn Lewis.

A rare scene appeared in the football world – a world war started by club administrators that had nothing to do with the coaches or players. This caused fans to be astounded. Seeing top-tier club administrators from the five largest leagues engaging in a verbal spat was probably a rarity throughout the history of football.

The Atletico Madrid fans were not happy. Perhaps they were still a bit perplexed and had not fully accepted Finn Lewis, but when the criticism came from Real Madrid, it was unacceptable, especially when it came from a middle-aged person from Real Madrid. Before Finn Lewis could say a word, the Atletico fans already filled Real Madrid’s official website:

“You go do it, Florentino.”

“We’re wealthier than you now, choke on that!”

“We’re rich, Wilful, what will you do about that?!” and many similar messages filled the site. It must be said; such a conversation was very satisfying for all Atletico Madrid fans. Who would have dared to brag about being rich in front of Real Madrid? Chelsea might have, but they were barely on par with Real Madrid, only slightly richer, with very limited difference.
