Chapter 249 Pretend it Never Happened?
Of course, Alexander wouldn’t tell Quinn too much. He certainly wouldn’t admit that he was here to apologize to someone, as it would compromise his status. He simply told Quinn that he was here to deliver a gift.
“Oh? Who are you giving the gift to? A man or a woman?” Quinn asked, puzzled.
“A man. What’s the big deal? Do I need to report back to you on who this person is?” Alexander snapped.
“No! No! Of course not… hehe!” Quinn laughed awkwardly.
After hanging up the phone, he looked surprised for a moment before becoming even more excited.
“Dad, what’s going on?” Dillon asked with confusion as he saw his father’s changing expressions.
“You know what? Mr. Austin actually came all this way just to give someone a gift! Can you believe it?! With Mr. Austin’s status and reputation, who could this person be that deserves such special treatment from him?”
As excitement and anticipation shone in his eyes, Quinn continued, “And most importantly… this important figure is also male! Hahaha! That’s great news!”
“Really? If there is someone whom Mr. Austin wants so badly to please with gifts in Edoland… we only need some connection with them and we can walk sideways in Edoland from now on!” Dillon exclaimed excitedly.
The next second they both turned their attention towards Allison who was tied up there; an evil grin appeared on their faces!Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
The Hodge family had made it big thanks solely due her presence; ha-ha-who said women were bad luck?
Allison was their lucky star!
However, at that moment, they heard some commotion outside which sounded like chaos breaking out somewhere nearby…
“Hmm? What happened?” Quinn frowned slightly
“I don’t know either! Let me go check with Black Scorpion.” Dillon said as he walked out of the basement accompanied by Black Scorpion
When they got upstairs and saw what was happening within the courtyard of the winery – several bodyguards had been beaten down onto the ground while screaming miserably – both men’s faces changed drastically upon seeing one tall figure standing nearby exuding an icy aura…
“Lachlan?” Dillon cried out in surprise when recognizing him immediately.
Immediately, a hint of hostility appeared on his face as he sneered, “You still came here? What, you want to force me to buy your pills? Didn’t I say I don’t have time for that tonight?”
Lachlan stared at him with a cold voice and asked, “Where is Allison?”
Hearing this question, Dillon thought to himself that this guy must be here for Allison. “How should I know!”
Lachlan snorted and walked directly towards the villa. Dillon had come out from there earlier and Lachlan suspected that Allison was inside the villa.
“Black Scorpion, kill him! Damn it!” Dillon’s expression suddenly turned fierce as he pointed at Lachlan.
“Yes, Mr. Hodge!” Black Scorpion responded fiercely and charged towards Lachlan with great momentum. When he reached Lachlan’s side, a cruel look appeared on his face as he pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and slashed it towards Lachlan’s throat! This guy was wanted by the law and an outlaw who always used deadly moves when attacking.
“Die!” A wicked smile appeared on Black Scorpion’s face.
However, in just an instant moment of lightning speed movement, Lachlan flicked his hand causing Black Scorpion’s knife to fly out of his hand directly! The force behind it made Black Scorpion feel numbness in his whole arm which started bleeding profusely!
Feeling the terrifying strength coming towards him, Black scorpions’ facial expression changed drastically but before he could retreat or dodge, he had no choice but to activate all of its body defense power using Iron Cloth Shirt technique.
With a muffled sound accompanying it, he was kicked away by Lachlan’s foot!
After landing heavily on the ground, he spewed out blood while standing up unsteadily!
Lachlan raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Although he kicked casually, the force behind it was quite formidable. Normally, he would expect the person to be severely injured or even incapacitated. It was unexpected that the person could still stand up.
It seemed like this person specialized in physical defense training?
At this moment when Dillon saw how Black Scorpion was kicked away by Lashcan’s foot while spewing blood, he showed panic-stricken fearfulness.
“F*cking hell!”
After cursing once more under breaths, he turned around wanting to run back into the villa again.
Seeing this, Lachlan was about to catch up. However, at that moment, another person emerged, dragging a woman along. If it wasn’t Quinn and Allison, then who could it be?
“Stop right there! Otherwise I’ll shoot her dead!”
Quinn glanced at Black Scorpion, blood dripping from his mouth, and yelled at Lachlan in a stern voice. He held an iron knuckle in his hand, pressing it against Allison’s temple.
“Mmm… Mmm…” Allison finally woke up and whimpered with fear in her beautiful eyes. But her mouth was gagged with cloth, so she couldn’t speak to Lachlan.
Lachlan stopped walking when he saw this and looked at Allison for a moment. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her clothes were still intact. Thank goodness, she hadn’t been violated!
“You better not mess around! Let her go now, and I’ll pretend nothing happened!” Lachlan said to the Hodge family father and son with a serious face.
At this point, Dillon stopped running too. A sneer appeared on his face as he said, “You’ll pretend nothing happened? Screw you!”
“Dare to break into my territory and hurt my people? I won’t let it slide!” Dillon pointed at Lachlan then turned to Black Scorpion, “Scorpion, can you still fight? Go over there and teach him a lesson!”
Quinn held the gun against Allison’s head while making eye contact with Black Scorpion. He signaled for him to kill Lachlan.
Alexander was about to arrive soon; Quinn didn’t want any trouble here.
Black Scorpion nodded grimly then walked towards Lachlan menacingly.
Lachlan’s kick had made him feel like all of his organs had shifted inside him. He was shocked by how strong Lachlan was but also filled with anger and resentment towards him.
When he walked up to Lachlan and saw that this guy hadn’t moved an inch, Black Scorpion suddenly laughed cruelly.
He knew that because of that woman’s safety concerns, he wouldn’t dare move!
Slap!
The next second, Black Scorpion swung his arm around before slapping hard across Lachlan’s face!!
“Mmm… Mmm…” Seeing this scene unfold before her eyes caused Allison to struggle desperately while whimpering out loud. She knew that it was all happening because of herself! She feared being in danger too!
