Chapter 315 An Unfair Challenge
Killian finally understood Catherine’s purpose, and it turned out that she wanted to poach his money-making tool.
Although Tyler was extremely thin and small, he was indeed a tough character. He dared to fight and wasn’t afraid of death. Since Tyler was in his hands, Killian had made a lot of money.
It could be said that Killian’s career was reaching its peak because of Tyler, so how could he easily give up Tyler and give him away?
After spitting, Killian sneered and squinted at Catherine.
“You’re dreaming!”
Catherine didn’t come to negotiate with Killian at all. She just came directly to demand him to give her Tyler. The black market had its own rules.
There was only one rule in the black market, which was that the strong ruled the world. Only the strong had the right to speak here.
If Catherine wanted to take away Tyler from Killian, she had to pay the price accordingly. Under Killian’s contempt, Catherine made an easy leap and jumped to the center of the arena.
No one expected a woman with a delicate figure to appear suddenly. Although she wore a mask, her stunning figure alone was enough for men to go crazy.
In an instant, Catherine caught everyone’s attention. No one knew why a girl who just stayed in the corner suddenly entered the arena. Just as everyone was curious, Catherine suddenly made an astonishing move.
She took off the dusty bell hanging in the center of the arena and threw it onto Killian below the arena. In an instant, the bell rang loudly in the entire venue. Everyone’s eyes widened in surprise. Someone proposed a challenge!
In another private room in the VIP area on the second floor, Triston watched the scene in the arena with interest, and he became excited.
“Mr. Duncan, look. Someone took the bell, and it’s a woman!”
Aidan rarely stayed in the country and only heard about this black market, not knowing much about it.
Seeing that Triston was so excited, and most importantly, even Branden’s eyes were filled with intense colors of interest, which was strange for Aidan!
He quickly asked Triston about the situation. “What the hell is going on? Why are these people so excited? Tell me!”
Triston glanced at him with disdain and whispered sarcastically, “Such a hick!”
Aidan was so angry, but he could only endure it to figure things out.
“So, are you going to tell me or not?”
Triston would certainly tell Aidan, but he would belittle him before telling him.
“This bell is the rule of the black market. If someone wants to challenge others, they can ring the bell to designate the person they want to challenge. The designated person must take the challenge but can choose any way he wants to fight! If the declarer loses, all the consequences that arise in the end will be paid by the declarer.”
Aidan asked in confusion, “So the man with golden teeth can even find ten experts to fight against the woman in the arena?”
Triston nodded. “That’s right. Most importantly, if the woman in the arena loses, she has to bear the cost of Killian finding people to deal with her. Don’t mention Killian finding ten people to deal with her. Even if he finds one hundred people to beat her, it’s allowed!”
“What!” Aidan shouted in surprise.” Isn’t it clear that the woman is going to lose?”
Triston sized him up with raised eyebrows. “So, that’s why the crowd is excited. You know what, it’s been ten years since someone proposed a challenge last time!”
Now, Aidan was energized, pulling Triston to stare at the arena with his full attention. In addition to the two of them, Branden was also staring at the arena in this private room.
Branden was now clearly in the spirit compared to his previous lack of interest. He stared at the delicate figure below, feeling somewhat familiar. Below the arena, looking at the bell thrown into his arms, Killian was stunned for a moment.
He didn’t expect the other party to challenge him this way. He didn’t know if the woman was too confident or if she was fearless. If he didn’t take the challenge, wouldn’t he appear too cowardly?
If he didn’t take the challenge, he would be ridiculed for not even daring to take a woman’s challenge in the future.
Killian raised his head toward the arena, his eyes looking straight at Catherine as he questioned arrogantly, “Tell me. Since you want my man, what is your chip?”
Catherine didn’t respond directly but glanced at Sean on the side. Sean sized up the boy named Tyler, but he didn’t know what Catherine saw from this boy that she insisted on wanting him.
“Killian, she’s betting 30 million dollars. Even if she wins, she will still give you ten million dollars!”
Sean knew that Catherine had her principles in doing things. Although she acted arrogantly and did things domineeringly, she would never bully and take by force.
Everyone knew in their hearts what prices teenagers like Tyler were on the black market. Even if Killian lost the challenge, he wouldn’t suffer a loss after he got the ten million dollars Catherine offered!
Killian was satisfied with the money Sean had quoted. The most important thing was, in his opinion, he would surely win!
With such an easy deal to make thirty million dollars, anyone who didn’t accept the challenge would be a fool!
“Okay, I’ll take the challenge.” Killian grinned happily. “Hehe, it’s too late for you to regret it now!”
Killian hired the Twelve Ruffians of the black market to win this challenge securely.
The Twelve Ruffians was the most famous team of twelve thugs in the black market. Anyone among them was a notoriously ruthless character, not to mention twelve of them joining forces at the same time.
After realizing that Killian had hired the Twelve Ruffians to deal with the woman in the arena, some people couldn’t help but feel angry for the woman and cursed Killian for being too despicable.
But there was no way because that was the rule of the black market. Since Catherine dared to challenge, she had to pay the price! The Twelve Ruffians made a brilliant appearance under the invitation of a huge sum of money from Killian.
Each of the Twelve Ruffians was tall and strong, and all were big men. Living on the black market all year round had made them experienced in fighting.
Watching the twelve big men walk out at the same time, Aidan’s heart couldn’t help but miss a beat.
He turned sideways and bumped Triston with his shoulder. “Mr. Lambert, how many men can you fight at a time if it were you?”
Triston replied confidently, “That must be two!”
He felt that it was no problem for him to fight two people by himself!
“Hmm!” Aidan gave him a disdainful look. In his opinion, Triston could fight at most one person. He turned sideways again toward Paxton, who had a cold face as if he were a statue. “What about you?”
Paxton took a closer look at the Twelve Ruffians, and a hesitation appeared in his eyes.
“I’m not sure if I can win steadily!”
Paxton was the number one expert of the Duncans’ defense team, and even he wasn’t sure to win over the Twelve Ruffians. Then, it seemed that the woman in the arena was certain to lose.
Thinking of a girl with such a good figure, who would possibly die or become disabled for nothing, Aidan was a little heartbroken. She had such a perfect figure!
After a few seconds of silence, Paxton suddenly said, “If it were Mr. Duncan, he’d be sure to win!”
Aidan had long heard that the most influential expert of the Duncans was not the defense team but the young head of the Duncans, Branden!
Although he had been friends with Branden for many years, he had never seen him actually fight. He was kind of curious about how powerful Branden really was!
