Chapter 49: Chapter 48: The Explanation You Wanted 1

Translator: 549690339

When Quella Radcliffe left from her home, it was already past five in the afternoon.

There was less than an hour left before the Three Blade Group would come to ransom their man.

After instructing Aron Jackson to take Quella Radcliffe to her new home, Julius Reed hurried to West Lake pier with Aron Jackson.

West Lake pier used to be an important transport hub for Gonzalez City, but it gradually fell into disuse after the new pier was built.

Apart from a few abandoned warehouses, there were hardly any people around.

And all kinds of shady deals often took place here.

Bang!

After Julius Reed kicked open the iron door of the warehouse, the first thing he smelled was a pungent rotten scent.

Aron Jackson had already arranged for his men to hook up electric lights, so the inside of the warehouse wasn’t dark.

Tied up on a chair at the back, Sonny Ridge was bound hand and foot, looking utterly lifeless.

It was hard for others to imagine that the deputy manager of the Gonzalez City branch of the Three Blade Group could end up tied up in a dilapidated warehouse like this.

“When our boss gets here, none of you will escape!”

Watching Julius Reed and Aron Jackson, the corners of Sonny Ridge’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Right now, he would’ve given anything to flay them alive and feed on their flesh!

As the deputy manager of the Gonzalez City branch of the Three Blade Group, Sonny Ridge was used to respect wherever he went, but now he lay on the chair like a useless man, his hands destroyed.

“Is that so? I wish your dreams come true.”

Julius Reed smiled faintly, hands clasped behind his back.

The Three Blade Group dared to meddle in these murky waters; they would have to pay the price!

“Boss, three new martial arts gyms opened in Gonzalez City today.”

Standing behind him, Aron Jackson murmured softly, “My guys checked it out

—they’re Theodore Kensington’s men.”

The moment Black Bear was eliminated, Aron Jackson knew that Theodore Kensington wouldn’t just let things slide!

The influence of the Kensington family was massive, and Theodore Kensington himself was universally known.

“Keep a close eye on them. If they’re looking for death, I don’t mind obliging them.”

Julius Reed was unconcerned. A mere Theodore Kensington wasn’t qualified to challenge him.

“Don’t worry, boss. The surrounding area of their gyms is already filled with our eyes. If anything stirs, I’ll inform you immediately.”

After mingling in Gonzalez City for three years, Aron Jackson knew Theodore Kensington’s personality well. Since Black Bear had been killed in Gonzalez City, Theodore Kensington would surely investigate to the end!

Especially, the establishment of these three martial arts gyms seemed too coincidental.

“Send some men to protect my wife. With all that’s been happening lately, I’m always concerned about her safety,” Julius Reed spoke thoughtfully with his hands crossed behind him.

Today, he had slapped Otis Radcliffe’s face in front of everyone.

For someone of Otis Radcliffe’s temperament, there was no way he would let bygones be bygones! And Zade Radcliffe would likely take action too.

He himself was not afraid, but he had to consider Quella Radcliffe’s safety.

“Rest assured, boss. My elite men are protecting the Young Madam around the clock,” Aron Jackson assured.

Aron Jackson had already arranged for his people to protect Quella Radcliffe day and night. His network in Gonzalez City was also very efficient.

If any of those people made the slightest move, he would be the first to get the news.

“The time should be about right now,” Julius Reed checked his watch.

“If Maurice Yarrow doesn’t want to come, then just throw him into the river to feed the fish.”

“You dare! By offending the Three Blade Group, you’re signing your own death warrant!”

Sitting in the chair, Sonny Ridge felt his heart sink while he silently prayed for the people from the Three Blade Group to hurry up.

When he found out that the person who had captured him was Aron Jackson, fear filled his heart.

As the deputy manager of the Gonzalez City branch, he had spent several years here.

He had experienced Aron Jackson’s terror first-hand, far more intimately than those who were far away in the Five-river Province.

From his initial arrival in Gonzalez City to consolidating his hold on the industry, Aron Jackson had only taken a few months.

Moreover, none of the companies that opposed him met a good end.

But since the Three Blade Group has a strong backing and also avoids conflict with Aron Jackson, these past three years have been fairly peaceful.

However, everyone Imows that Boss Yarrow will make his move sooner or later!

Such a juicy piece of Gonzalez City, countless eyes are watching.

What Sonny Ridge hadn’t expected was that Aron Jackson would act before Maurice Yarrow, and his first move was a killer one!

“The Three Blade Group, huh? I just so happen to have an account to settle!”

Julius Reed turned to look at the warehouse door and muttered to himself,

“They’re already here.”

No sooner had his voice faded away than a staff member ran into the warehouse in a panic, gasping for breath as he shouted, “Big brother, Gerrard Cook is here with people!”

Gerrard Cook is the manager of the Gonzalez City branch, usually in charge of the overall coordination.

Now that Sonny Ridge had been captured, he had to step in to resolve the situation.

This incident had a significant impact; the entire Three Blade Group was criticizing Gerrard Cook for his inaction, for allowing the deputy manager to be taken away from his own company!

“Maurice Yarrow didn’t come?”

Julius Reed raised an eyebrow and muttered to himself, “But when I think about it, it makes sense. How could this old fox show up so easily?”

“Big brother, do we take action directly?”

Aron Jackson asked from the side.

“Since Maurice Yarrow didn’t show, let’s break Sonny Ridge’s legs first.” Julius Reed said lightly, but these words made Sonny Ridge break out in a cold sweat.

He knew that the other party was not joking!

“Aron Jackson, we do not interfere with each other, so why detain the deputy manager of the Three Blade Group!”

Just then, a deep voice came from the entrance of the warehouse, followed by a flurry of footsteps.

“Gerrard Cook, manager of the Three Blade Group’s Gonzalez City branch, has come to meet you!”

A middle-aged man in a suit walked into the warehouse, slightly short in stature.

“Bridger Davenport of the Three Blade Group, has come to meet you!”

Next to Gerrard Cook was a man wearing glasses, clearly shrewd and calculating.

“So it’s Brother Reed and Brother Cook!”

Aron Jackson stepped forward with his hands clasped in a salute, “My apologies for not greeting you from afar.”

He had also heard of Bridger Davenport’s name. Being Maurice Yarrow’s right-hand man and now appearing alongside Gerrard Cook indicated that the Three Blade Group was taking this matter very seriously.

“Save me!”

At that moment, Sonny Ridge shouted loudly for help while tied to a chair.

“Sonny Ridge? How did you end up like this!”

The deputy manager of the majestic Three Blade Group was now bloodied and leaning against a chair, his hands beaten beyond breaking.

Seeing this scene, Gerrard Cook’s pupils shrank, his voice tinged with a chill, “Aron Jackson, you’d better give me an explanation!”

“An explanation?

Julius Reed walked languidly to Sonny Ridge’s side and spoke, “He cheated at a bet in your bar. As the boss, he stooped to cheating! According to the bar rules, breaking both hands isn’t too much, right?”

As he spoke, he turned around and said, “Since you think I owe you an explanation, I’ll give you one.”

Crack!

Julius Reed suddenly kicked out, breaking both of Sonny Ridge’s legs from the knees!

“Is that explanation enough?”

“You’re asking for it!”

Gerrard Cook’s face darkened as he made to charge with his men.

“Wait a moment!”

Bridger Davenport stopped him and looked at Julius Reed, “Brother, your face is unfamiliar to me. May I know your esteemed name?”

“Did you bring the money I want?”

Julius Reed didn’t answer Bridger Davenport’s question, instead asking about the ransom..
