Chapter 24 What a Tough Guy!
“You have no right to know who he is!” Judge responded. “If you don’t want to die here today, I suggest you take the opportunity he’s giving you! Otherwise, I don’t mind personally sending you on your way!”
Upon hearing his words, all three of them knelt down and kowtowed vigorously towards Billy.
“I beg of you, please spare my nephew this time…” Brian was the first to speak up. “I’m willing to pay compensation money. Consider it as compensation for Miss Miles. You name the amount and I’ll transfer the money immediately…”
The other two family heads also nodded quickly, expressing their willingness to pay as long as they could save their sons’ lives.
“You guys are very rich?” Billy took a sip of wine. “So how much do you plan on paying? One trillion or ten trillion?”
“I…” Brian struggled to speak and was at a loss for words. Although the Watkins family ranked first in Ozin’s big families, they couldn’t come up with more than 10 billion cash.
“Give each of them a knife, and if they don’t cut the rope within three minutes, let them jump on their own!” Billy took a sip of his cigarette and spoke lightly.
Bang!
Three cold machetes were thrown in front of the three.
“I… I’ll make a call…” Brian said trembling as he pulled out his phone. He was making one last attempt. As the second in command of the Watkins family, he knew some people in Ozin’s underworld and hoped to save his nephew’s life. One minute later, the first call went through. But before he could finish speaking, the other party heard it was SHADOW who was involved and hung up directly.
A drop of sweat dripped down from Brian’s forehead. Then he dialed another number. Without surprise, halfway through speaking, the phone was hung up again. He tried another two times but failed in the end. The phone fell to the ground and his face turned pale as sheet.
“There’s only one minute left!” Judge’s voice rang out.
Brian picked up one of the bent swords before staggering towards Albion. The other two family heads had no choice but to bend down and pick up their swords, staggering away.
“Uncle… what are you doing… I’m your nephew…” Albion shouted out.
“Albion.. don’t blame me. You made a mistake and must take responsibility for the entire Watkins family. I had no choice…” Brian took a deep breath and raised his sword.
“Don’t do it!” Albion screamed. The next moment, his body disappeared into the darkness like a falling leaf. The fate of the other two young masters was the same as Albion’s. Their own fathers cut off the hemp ropes that bound them before they fell into the rolling waves of the lake with a thud. Afterwards, Brian and his companions collapsed on the ground at once. In an instant, they seemed to have aged several decades. Tears flowed freely from their eyes as they were overwhelmed by grief and despair.
…
“What?!” Osmond Watkins, the head of the family received his brother’s phone call and roared in anger. His son was dead in the river.
Osmond’s raging palm slammed onto the coffee table in front of him, causing it to instantly explode. Glass shards scattered all over the ground.
“Please forgive me, brother. I am powerless and cannot save Albion…” Brian sat on the sofa, tears flowing down his face.
Osmond took a deep breath and lit a cigar before looking at him and he said, “This is not your fault, if I were there, I would have made the same choice.”
After blowing out smoke, he continued, “Are you sure that kid is here to avenge that little bitch from the Miles family?”
“Yes! He said it himself!”
Osmond looked towards his subordinate standing at the door and spoke in a deep voice, “Find out whether there are any surviving members of the Miles family! Report back immediately as soon as there is any news!”
“Yes, my lord!”
“Brother, that kid has an unusual relationship with SHADOW!” Brian also lit a cigar and took a puff.
“If he really is a remnant of the Miles family, we have to be on guard!”
Osmond snorted and said, “So what? If he’s one of the Miles family, even he is the master of SHADOW, I’ll let him die again!”
“Call Coman right now, and tell him that his younger brother has been killed, ask him to come back in the next few days.” Said Osmond.
“What’s the plan, brother?”
“No matter who hen is, he dares to kill my son, I will definitely crush him to pieces!” Osmond gritted his teeth.
“Okay!”
Brian didn’t expect Osmond to call Coman Watkins back, who was the eldest son of Osmond and also the pride of the entire Watkins family. Not only was his personal strength formidable, but he had already become a candidate for the position of attendant in the Buddha Hall at a young age, highly regarded by superiors and with a bright future ahead. Buddha Hall was an institution that was on par with SHADOW as one of the two major powers in the country. It attracted elites and wielded immense power. SHADOW managed inside the country, eliminating violence and promoting peace, punishing evil and eradicating corruption; while Buddha Hall was the outer defense, resisting foreign enemies and promoting national prestige. Young people who could successfully pass the assessment of Buddha Hall and become official members were all outstanding talents in their own right.
“Also, inform Al to invite the Heath Brothers to come to Ozin. Just say that the Watkins family has invited them and they will be rewarded with one billion.” Osmond continued instructing.
“Alright.”
Upon hearing the words “Heath Brothers,” a glint appeared in Brian’s eyes.
Osmond took another puff of his cigar, his eyes bloodshot as he stared ahead and murmured, “you killed my son, I will make sure you suffer a fate worse than death!”
On the third day around noon, Billy and Casey were having lunch on the first floor of their hotel when Billy’s phone rang. He picked it up to see that it was Harleen calling.
“Harleen, have you guys arrived in Ozin?”
“Daddy, it’s Tasha. Where are you? I miss you so much. Can you come see me?” A young voice sounded from the other end of the line.
“Tasha?” Billy perked up at once and spoke softly. “Tasha, ask your mom where you guys are right now. Daddy will come over right away.”
“Really? You can come see Tasha right away? That’s great! Hurry up!”
“I’ll give Mommy the phone so she can tell you our location.”
“Okay.” Billy replied with a smile.
“Since Tasha woke up that day, she kept calling out for you. I could feel how much she misses you. We were planning to come to Ozin later in the evening, but Tasha kept insisting on seeing you, so we came back early. We’re at Ozin’s house now. I’ll send you the address and if you’re free, come hang out with Tasha.” Said Harleen.
“I’m free now. I’ll be there soon.” Billy replied emotionally.
“Alright.” Harleen responded before hanging up.
Shortly after, Billy received their address on his phone.
“Are the toys ready?” Billy asked as they walked towards the hotel entrance.
“Yes,” Casey nodded. “I had Judge buy them and they’re already in the parking lot.”
“Good!” Billy nodded before picking up his pace.
“Commander!”
As they arrived at the parking lot, a man of SHADOW jumped out of a box truck’s driver seat and greeted them.
“The toys are here?” Billy asked.
“They’re all here.” The man quickly walked to the back of the truck and opened its door. “Judge didn’t know what kind of toys Tasha likes specifically so he bought a little bit of everything.”
Billy and Casey looked inside and their mouths twitched simultaneously-there were toys everywhere.
Well then! The entire truck was filled with toys!
“You should have him move the entire mall!” Billy rolled his eyes as he looked at Casey.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
“What a tough guy!” Casey commented.
