Chapter 289 Clearing the Scene
Burt quickly said, Master Alan, I know you certainly don't take the Hand family seriously. However, the Hand family's status and strength in Peffers City are still very formidable. If we really become enemies with them, there will definitely be a lot of trouble in the future.As he spoke, Burt added, Master Alan, regarding this matter, I still suggest you keep a low profile as much as possible. Just make sure the Hand family doesn't find out. Otherwise, you'll inevitably face trouble down the line.Alan smiled and said, Burt, I appreciate your concern, but you don't need to worry too much about this. Just let it be.Alright, Burt hurriedly continued, By the way, Master Alan, there's another reason the Hand family is hosting the banquet today.Alan pressed, What is it? Burt replied, It seems the Hand family is eager to arrange a marriage between Lewis and Lucia. But according to Sanderson, Miss Lucia has openly told him that she already has someone she likes. So the Hand family also wa
Chapter 288: A Dominant Response
At the thought, he immediately blurted out a reprimand: Fool! I sent you to the College of Finance and Economics to study hard, not to get Master Alan into trouble! Don’t you know who Harris is? How dare you ask Master Alan to go against him?Carla said: I didn’t know... I only knew Harris’ family was rich, but I really had no idea about the specifics...As she spoke, Carla added: Besides, I really didn’t ask Master Alan to target Harris. It’s just that Harris used those dirty online tricks to mentally control my best friend, making her try to commit suicide several times. I had no other choice but to ask Master Alan for help...And my original intention was to ask Master Alan to save my friend. I never expected Master Alan to be so displeased with Harris that he taught him a lesson on the way, saying he couldn’t let Harris harm anyone else!Sighing deeply, Bert said: You’ve brought disaster to Master Alan! The Hand family has already come! They’re gathering all the influential famili
Chapter 287: Mogos’ Guess
After all, for such an unheard-of and mysterious incident, Mogos really couldn’t think of anyone else in Pras City capable of pulling it off except Master Alan.However, the only question puzzling him was: why would Master Alan have a grudge against Harris?That kid Harris was just barely in his early twenties, several years younger than Master Alan. Moreover, he wasn’t involved in the underworld—he was a student at Pras City College of Finance and Economics, with no connection to Alan whatsoever. So logically, there should have been no chance for them to cross paths and form a feud...Suddenly, a clue popped into Mogos’ mind. He remembered that Bert’s daughter Carla was studying at Pras City College of Finance and Economics!Originally, he’d thought there was no inevitable link between Master Alan and Harris, but now he’d found a potential connection between them.That link was Carla. Could it be because of Carla that Master Alan had crossed paths with Harris, or even developed a con
Chapter 286: A Generous Offer
Sanderson nodded and said, I’ve come to Pras City for two main reasons. First, the Hand family has run into some trouble—surely all of you are aware of this?No one responded, but their awkward expressions said it all.Sanderson knew well that his second son’s incident had dealt a severe blow to the Hand family’s dignity, making them the laughingstock in countless people’s eyes. Yet the more this happened, the more eager he was to track down the culprit who had ruined his son.With a cold expression, he continued, The first matter is asking all of you to help me find the person who framed my second son. I’m not very familiar with the situation in Pras City, so I’ll rely heavily on all of you. Tell your subordinates to keep a close eye out. If there’s any information related to this, notify me promptly. The Hand family will reward you generously—I personally guarantee the reward will be no less than 20 million dollars!Twenty million dollars, just for a lead—it was clear the Hand famil
Chapter 285: Taking Sides
In fact, everyone had thought it through clearly and even discussed it privately. Their idea was to give the Hand family face and be polite, but deep down, they still hoped to follow Master Allen wholeheartedly.As for the others, they all came to cling to the Hand family’s influence. After all, the Hand family was the most powerful family in Peffers City. To many small and medium-sized families, it was like a towering tree covered with all kinds of fruits—every monkey hoped to cling to this tree.So, when they saw the father and son from the Hand family enter the Diamond Box, the members of the other families stood up to greet them almost instantly.Among them, the head of the Melford family took the lead in flattering, Mr. Sanderson, you are truly imposing and dignified! Master Lewis is also a man of striking appearance. No wonder you are the first family of Peffers City—your presence is truly unparalleled!The head of the Lefebvre family also nodded repeatedly and echoed, Indeed! I
Chapter 284: The Purpose
Upon hearing this, Lewis let out a gasp and blurted out, Mogos actually used a knife to carve words into Gallo's son's forehead?Yes, Sanderson smiled faintly and said, I reckon Gallo and his son dream of killing Mogos and eating his flesh!Lewis couldn't help but ask, Dad, since you know Gallo and Mogos are enemies, why did you still invite Gallo to the banquet?Sanderson chuckled, Don't you think Gallo is a perfect pawn to use? A dog that wants to bite but dares not open its mouth—what it lacks most is a master who can back it up, letting it feel safe to bite without hesitation.Lewis said, Dad, if you want to subdue and use Gallo, why set the dinner at Arc de Triomphe Western Restaurant? He and Mogos are mortal enemies—won't that make things extremely difficult?Sanderson looked at Lewis with deep, piercing eyes and said, Both Gallo and Mogos are dogs. The only difference is that Gallo is a stray dog with no owner, while Mogos is the Green family's dog.Lewis nodded and asked, Then
