Chapter 298 What Is The Rush
The woman was pompous, and the man calculative, but both were troublesome.
Nigel already knew that Linda loved to hold her head high whenever she spoke, whereas Leonard would looked down at his own feet when he walked. People like him were the most mysterious, and also the most selfish.
However, he never thought that both Leonard and Linda would be so shameless.
Before Tyrone showed up, Jennifer’s parents had always flattered Nigel. Yet, they began to suck up to Tyrone once he came into the scene.
At that thought, Nigel looked at Leonard, Linda, and Kevin mockingly. “You all really see Jennifer as a commodity to be bought and sold, huh?”
Jennifer looked at Nigel. She somewhat agreed with him. Deep down, she felt saddened.
She really was a commodity at that moment. She was constantly the subject of their trade.
Even so, she still had to come because she wanted to earn more money.
Someone had told Jennifer that a miracle doctor in Pollerton could treat Donald, but the cost of the treatment was at least two hundred million.
She only had one objective right then. She had to finish her project within a month. Then, she would look for the miracle doctor from Pollerton, James Weiss, to treat Donald.
Jennifer opened her mouth to speak in a clear voice. “Nigel, say it. How much do I need to pay you so that I can continue mining?”
Nigel knew that Tyrone didn’t really love Jennifer. They were all just using Tyrone’s name to intimidate him. So, he replied, “Want to continue mining? Sure! I want half of your profits, and your company for ten days.”
Jennifer’s eyes widened as she looked at Nigel furiously.
How shameless! How can he say something so disgraceful in broad daylight?
Kevin smacked his wheelchair and pointed at Nigel. He shouted, “Do you even know what you’re saying, Nigel? My sister is still a virgin, and she belongs to Tyrone! Don’t you even think about it! Tyrone will kill you, for sure, if I tell him what you just said.”
Kevin was even angrier than Jennifer. He was a man too. He knew what other men were thinking.
Someone like Tyrone would never want “used goods.”
Slap!
Nigel charged at Kevin and slapped him across the face. “Do you want to die?”
That slap made Kevin collapse to the ground.
Both Leonard and Linda shouted when it happened. They rushed forward to help Kevin up. Then, they turned to glare at Nigel. “You’re dead. We’ll surely report your behavior to Mr. Tyrone-”
Slap!
Another slap landed. This time, it was on Linda’s face. “Who do you think you are?”
After that, Nigel kicked Leonard to the ground and went on, “Are you threatening me? Tyrone may be from the Campbell clan, but I have the Freedman clan backing me up! I’m also the next Tayhaven King. I could easily kill you all!”
Right then, Nigel was in a fit of rage as arrogance overtook him.
“Men, take them away! Beat them up and bury them alive,” Nigel ordered.
The door was pushed open. In came five muscular men in black suits. They lifted the family of three by the collars as though they were grabbing some chickens.
“Ah! What I said is true! Tyrone really wants to marry Jennifer! You’ll be dead if you lay a finger on us!” Linda shouted.
Kevin yelled as well, “Just you wait! Mr. Tyrone is watching us. He’ll come to save us soon! You’ll be dead meat when he does!”
Terrified, Jennifer instantly stood up. “Nigel! What are you trying to do?”
However, Nigel shoved her onto the couch before she could even stand up straight. “You! Stay!”
Jennifer was truly shocked. She never thought that he would be so daring as to take action on them in broad daylight.
Nigel looked down at her from high above. His eyes looked as if they could trap one’s soul. “You’re really shameless, Jennifer. Do you still miss Donald?”
Jennifer struggled to get up. She wanted to run outside, but Nigel managed to block her path. “What’s the rush?” he said softly.
