Chapter 191 Basking In Reflected Glory
Zayne and the rest of the men wanted to laugh.
Meanwhile, Ysabel said to Donald anxiously, “Donald, why don’t we just lay the matter to rest?”
Mark seemed to notice a glimmer of hope. He turned to Hector and yelled, “Save me, Mr. Zahn! Save me!”
Hector was even more certain about his hunch as he believed they would not bet on it.
If they angered Lord Campbell, they would run into trouble.
“You can’t afford to offend General Felton. It’s not for all of you too late to leave now.” Hector basked in reflected glory as he spoke.
A smug look also appeared on his face.
Although Hector felt somewhat guilty, he still thought that people like Lord Campbell would not mind if he used the latter’s name to his advantage.
Donald remarked wryly, “Really?”
Hector nodded firmly. “Yes. Listen to this if you don’t believe me.”
Then, he took out his phone and called his father, Jason. “Hey, Dad. Where are you?”
“I’m coming soon. Hang in there! I want to see who dares to hurt you!” Jason’s angry voice could be heard from the other end of the line.
“Have you met General Felton?” Hector asked. He also purposely turned on the speaker mode on his phone.
“I’ve just met him and signed the contract. Currently, we aren’t together. I’m coming to Nocturne Karaoke Bar at once,” Jason replied.
Hector ended the call smugly and shrugged. “See. I’m right.”
After that, he let out a sigh before continuing, “I can’t help it. My family’s business isn’t huge, but General Felton trusts us. You are no match for us.”
While he was talking, Jason arrived.
As a middle-aged man in his fifties, he was tall and thin with narrow eyes and a mustache. One could tell from his appearance that he was not a good man, and it was a fact.
Torson Construction, which was owned by Jason, had been a force of evil for a few years. The company had committed all sorts of dirty deeds.
Jason scanned the room with his cold, hard gaze. He was not surprised to see Zayne and the others, for Hector had already informed him about their presence via text message.
“What? Did you trap my son here to assert dominance?” Jason sounded even more arrogant than his son. He even raised his head as he spoke. “Zayne, Lucas, Tyson, and Charles. As the big shots of Pollerton, is it appropriate to treat an elder like this?”
Hector came over at once.
“It’s him and this b*tch!” He pointed at Donald and Ysabel.
Jason chuckled menacingly. “I’ll give you a chance. Kneel down and apologize, and I shall forget about this issue.”
Charles scoffed, “I don’t understand. Who the hell are you to say such a thing?”
Are you nuts? Don’t you see what’s going on? Any one of the four of us could destroy your family, not to mention Lord Campbell is here.
“We have General Felton, one of the four great generals of Horizon Group, to back us up. Okay?” Jason retorted proudly and shot a look of disdain at the other men.
The Center Prince and the North Prince were nothing to Horizon Group! Although General Felton didn’t say that he would protect me, this doesn’t mean I can’t put on an act! After all, it’s true that I’ve met him, shaken his hand, and had a photo taken with him!
As Jason took out a photo, he continued, “Open your eyes and take a good look. This is a photo of me with General Felton.”
Indeed, it showed Jason shaking hands with Kingsley. It meant they had already come to an agreement.
“What now?” Hector felt relieved. “I’ve done so many bad things, but what can you do to me?”
“Times have changed, old-timers. Pollerton is going to be under new management, and it’ll no longer be the city you know,” he added, feeling great. “Ysabel, you b*tch! Do you regret it now? I’ve decided to have my way with you on the couch afterward, and nobody can stop me!”
Hector’s expression hardened once again when he spoke to Ysabel.
