Chapter 193 A Pawn
Three years ago, Ysabel found Donald to be very handsome. He was dreamy and suited her taste in men.
When they met again three years later, he gave her an even bigger surprise.
Why is Jennifer so silly? Why did she give up on such a good man?
Donald looked at Hector, Jason, and Mark. He touched his wrist and said, “See, what you rely on doesn’t work in front of me.”
Jason was sweating profusely as he thought of how he had kept putting on a front and said that he had Horizon Group and Lord Campbell as his backup.
He never imagined that Lord Campbell would be standing in front of him.
Jason quivered violently. Then, he wheeled around and gave Hector a slap on his cheek. “Kneel down!”
Hector knelt down, lowered his head, and prostrated himself before Donald.
Jason also knelt down and spoke through gritted teeth. “Mr. Campbell, Hector is immature… He’s impulsive because he’s still young. Since he’s very young, he still has a long way to go in life. I hope you will spare his life. If someone has to die, then let that person be me. I’m willing to take his place.”
Donald observed Jason condescendingly. After a long silence, he said, “Send him to Quadfield Prison, and release him ten years later.”
Hector’s body shook.
Jason uttered hastily, “Aren’t you going to thank Lord Campbell?”
Hector kept his head lowered on the ground. “Thank you… Lord Campbell.”
Donald replied, “I won’t kill you. Just treat it as if nothing happened today. Understood?”
Hector prostrated himself once more. “Understood, understood. Thank you for being merciful, Lord Campbell! From today onward, I’m willing to serve you with my life!”
“What about me?” Mark eyed Donald hopefully.
There was a cold glint in Donald’s eyes. “You’re one of Noah’s men. What do you think?”
A chill ran down Mark’s spine when he heard the reply.
As expected, Lord Campbell returned to Pollerton to tackle Noah.
Chiliad Avion is filthy rich. It even sent Lord Campbell to Pollerton to kill the Parasite, Noah Rodriguez.
“Please have mercy on me! I don’t know anything! I’ve never even met Noah…” Mark pleaded.
“You know what to do, Kingsley.” With that, Donald got up and led Ysabel outside.
Later, Mark disappeared from the face of the earth and was never heard of again.
Hector was sent to Quadfield Prison. Jason, on the other hand, did not seem too fearful. Instead, he was somewhat emotional.
Is this one big step for me? I’ve finally ridden on Lord Campbell’s coattails!
Nonetheless, he knew he could not reveal Lord Campbell’s identity. His son was still in Donald’s hands, and if the latter’s identity was exposed, Jason would be in danger himself.
Kingsley looked at Jason. “Do you know why Lord Campbell decided to spare your life?”
Jason shook his head.
Kingsley chuckled coldly. “If the need arises, you’ll be our pawn. Got it?”
Jason nodded.
Rupert had already revealed himself as a member of Noah’s family. Donald needed a stranger to get close to him, and Jason was a suitable candidate for this job.
“We’ll still give you the contract worth two billion, but you can’t give it to the Campbell family. Understood?” Kingsley said.
Jason nodded fervently. “Understood, understood. However, who should I give it to?”
Kingsley merely eyed him coldly.
An idea appeared in Jason’s mind, and he continued, “Ms. Jennifer Wilson… I get it.”
At last, Kingsley nodded. “You aren’t too stupid. Once this job is done, Lord Campbell might officially accept you in the future. Nevertheless, if I learn that someone uses Lord Campbell’s name to dupe and cheat others, I’ll kill you.”
Jason grinned obsequiously. “I know, I know. Don’t worry, General Felton.”
After leaving Nocturne Karaoke Bar, Donald and Ysabel got into a cab. She leaned against his shoulder and looked up to observe his side profile.
