"Okay, you two. I'm going upstairs!" Charmaine smiled faintly and went upstairs without mentioning anything else.…Elsewhere, at the Emerald Cloud Gang's base, the individuals who were higher up in the hierarchy were all gathered together.The gang was one of three underground forces in Brookbourn, and their leader—Claude Emeraldo—had a gloomy expression. He was clearly extremely unhappy.A middle-aged woman who answered to him said, "What's the matter, sir? Judging by your expression, you seem to be focused on something!"That was when Claude said, "The Cedar Gang's members and property have been taken over by Draco Hall. The Cedar Gang no longer exists in Brookbourn!""That can't be!" The woman uttered in surprise. "Monte, Kevin, and the others aren't weaklings! How did they die just like that?"The woman was surprised when she heard that. Another old man frowned and said, "That's not the strange part. According to the information we received, Draco Hall didn't suffer much at
The old man was overjoyed when he received affirmation from Claude. "Indeed, sir. It'll be too late for us to fight back if we wait until we get struck down by the other side. It's important for us to be prepared. Larry is a vengeful person, after all, and he's incredibly ambitious too. After all, he would never have taken over Cedar Gang if he was not that kind of character."Claude still felt that his subordinates' words made sense, so after giving it some more thought, he said, "We must prepare ourselves, that's for sure. but we must also be aware that Draco Hall isn't to be messed with. Tell those in the lower ranks to keep a low profile these couple of days and avoid provoking Draco Hall. We don't want to give them a chance to trouble us!"Having said that, Claude paused for a moment before continuing, "As for the rest, I'll pay a visit to Brookbourn Mansion in a couple of days to try and get a sense of their views on this! We'll discuss further action once we have their thought
"Severin, huh?" Hugo clenched his fists so hard that a cracking sound could be heard from his knuckles. A cold glimmer appeared in his eyes and he had an extremely frightening aura. "How bold of him to extort the Emerald Cloud Gang! He's asking to be killed!"After considering his options, Hugo said directly, "Little H, tell your men to dig up everything they can about them and hand the information over to me. I'll avenge you for what Severin did, and I'll make sure he never lives to see the sun. As for Queenie, you can deal with her as you see fit once I have her captured and brought over to you.""Thank you, Big H!" Hugh was extremely grateful.…The sky had darkened by then, and after Severin finished dinner, he still felt a little worried when he thought about Queenie's decision to work one last night after her manager Paul pleaded with her to come that afternoon.Since that thought continued to bother him, he decided to take a drive straight to the bar to check on the situati
However, Gareth simply sneered. "Shame. I don't like those women at all. My type is a good girl like yourself!" He then paused before continuing, "Name your price. How much do I need to pay before you'll go out with me tonight?"Gareth has already made preparations for two different outcomes. It would be for the best if Queenie was willing to accept money in exchange for sleeping with him, but should that plan fail to materialize, he had no qualms giving her the spiked bottle of wine according to the original plan.The bottle of wine that had been prepared in advance had already been opened and put to one side, but it had not been poured into a glass yet. Gareth had been waiting until Queenie came and the time was right to give her the drink.When Queenie heard that, she smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh, Mister Gareth, why do you have to dwell on that? Some of the girls here are super pretty, even prettier than me! You should look for them. I'm just a blonde bimbo who doesn't understa
"You're too kind. Our job is to keep you company and make you happy. We would've only completed our duty if our guests had a good time, isn't that right?" Queenie smiled and poured wine for him too.However, Gareth did not drink the wine she poured and placed his hand on her thigh instead. "You're right. Keeping guests company and making them happy is your job, but how am I going to have a good time if you don't spend a wonderful night with me?""What are you doing, Mister Gareth? Please behave!" Queenie was startled and immediately went to push his hand away. She was beginning to feel increasingly nervous too.However, Gareth did not give her the chance to push his hand away as easily as before. He placed it firmly on her lap. "Behave? Hehe, you think too highly of yourself. Most B-girls aren't innocent, so stop trying to pretend like you are. I promise I’ll give you money. I'm not the kind of man who takes things without giving anything in return!"Gareth then immediately winked
"Ah! Help! Let me go!"Queenie struggled desperately and was terror-struck. Her regret began to intensify, and she felt that she should never have gone to work that night.At that moment, however, the door was kicked open and a man barged in from the outside."F*cking idiots! I thought I told you guys to stand guard outside. Is this how you do your job?" Gareth stood up and cursed as soon as he heard someone barge in and interrupt him.When he turned around, he discovered that his friends were howling in pain as they lay on the ground near the door. The man who walked in picked up a wine bottle and smashed it right over his head."Ah!" Gareth covered his head in pain and sat on the sofa while saying to Severin, "You motherf*cker! Do you know who I am? Huh? Do you know who it is that you just smashed the bottle on? Hey, fellas! Get him!""Severin!" Queenie got up frantically and buttoned her collar as soon as she saw that Severin had come to her aid. "How did you find me? I'm so h
Queenie glanced over and began to feel a little worried for Severin even though she knew that he had amazing skills. However, she knew better than anyone that nothing could be done to smoothen things over. After all, she felt a burst of joy in her heart when Severin smashed the wine bottle over Gareth's head.Severin merely glanced indifferently at the thugs before finally saying with disdain, "There's quite a number of you, but you won't be able to win against me!""You're bold, kid!" Paul sneered and said, "Do you know whose turf you're on right now? I don't think there's any use in telling you though. You're not worthy of knowing that information!" As soon as he said that, he waved his hand. "Kill him!""Charge!"More than twenty of those thugs rushed up to Severin from all directions, but he kicked them one after another and they all collapsed to the ground within a few seconds. None of them could stand up, and some of them were vomiting blood while others clutched their chests
Severin could not be bothered by Gareth's tirade. He grabbed a nearby wine bottle and threw it right on Gareth's leg. The wine bottle shattered into small pieces, and Gareth knelt down in agony as soon as the searing pain came."Ah!" It was Gareth's first time suffering such humiliation and he howled in pain. Once his knees had touched the ground, he raised his head and stared at Severin resentfully. "B*stard! Didn't I just tell you that I'm from the Fenlands? Try to think before you act, will you? Do you want to get yourself killed? "Severin casually reached out to grab another wine bottle and raised it in the air."No, no, don't smash another bottle at me! We can talk nicely, right? I know my mistake now! I'll kowtow to you!" Gareth uttered in fear when he saw that Severin wanted to throw another bottle at him. He had never met such a hotheaded person.When Paul the manager saw that Severin was busy dealing with Gareth and paid no attention to him, he immediately backed away fro
