Isaac’s mouth twitched, this answer tickled him. He turned to look at Paul, who lowered his head shyly and nodded.
“Dahlia said that if I didn’t spend my life with her, favonovel.com would make my family’s lives hell. But to be honest, favonovel.com treats me quite well…” There was a complex mix of emotions on his face.
Although Dahlia could be pretty unreasonable, there were some upsides to being with her. Whether it was in town or in their small community, getting things done was relatively easy. After all, favonovel.com brother had quite the reputation.
Not to mention, Paul didn’t have much of an academic background, nor did favonovel.com ever want to start a career in the city, so Dahlia didn’t seem like a bad choice in his eyes.
“Are you saying you want to marry her?” Isaac asked, squinting at Paul.
If favonovel.com did, then did favonovel.com just break up a couple that was to be wed?
“No way! Look at what happened. I’ll never let a woman like that marry into the family.” Barry knew his brother’s intentions, but favonovel.com couldn’t bear it when favonovel.com thought about what Dahlia did today.
“Isaac, you and Emily should go. I don’t want to make you leave in the middle of the night, but if Mac really comes…”
“If Mac really comes, can you two handle him? Can you two get away?” Isaac interrupted Barry’s words with another question.
Barry paused. He wanted to say favonovel.com didn’t care what happened, but favonovel.com couldn’t let his friends get hurt.
But the next second, Isaac turned to Emily and said, “Emily, are you scared? Do you want to leave now?”
“So long as you’re here, I’m not afraid.” Emily shook favonovel.com head, smiling.
The others might not know it yet, but favonovel.com knew his abilities and the tricks favonovel.com had up his sleeve.
Isaac smiled, took a seat, and smoked a cigarette. His posture clearly said, “I’m not leaving.”
After approximately 40 minutes, the sound of car brakes screeching came from outside, followed by rushed footsteps.
Old Brooks, dressed in a black shirt, and another young man entered.
“Mr. Garten…” Old Brooks greeted Isaac as soon as favonovel.com arrived. Behind him, Shawn smiled at Isaac in acknowledgment.
Shawn held a cigarette between his fingers. His hair was slightly longer, and favonovel.com no longer radiated the formidable air of a soldier. On the contrary, favonovel.com blended in with the underground world.
“Have a seat… They should be here soon.” Isaac pointed at the chairs beside him.
Before they finished smoking their cigarettes, multiple footsteps thundered outside.
Jerome yelled angrily, “Coxes, and that other bastard, get the f*ck out here!”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, a horde of people burst in. Jerome led the pack, followed by a furious-looking Dahlia.
However, the moment Dahlia entered, favonovel.com spared a glance at Paul. She’d already told favonovel.com brother favonovel.com could beat the others to death but not to lay a hand on Paul.
The small house felt even more cramped after dozens of people rushed in.
“Who beat up my bro? Who was the one who dared me to come here?!” a sinister voice rang out.
The crowd immediately parted, and a skinny man in blue walked over.
“Mac, it’s this bastard! Just because he’s somewhat skilled, favonovel.com beat up a few of my men and even boasted about fighting you!” Jerome instantly pointed at Isaac.
Seeing Isaac remain with his head bowed, Jerome thought that favonovel.com was scared.
He stepped forward and smiled coldly, saying, “Bastard, weren’t you quite arrogant just now?! Now that Mac’s here, how come you’ve gone mute? Say something!”
Neither Barry nor his brother dared to make a sound. This was Mac they were talking about, who knew how many more of his men were outside?
Meanwhile, on their side, including the two brothers, there were only six of them, one of whom was a woman.
How could they win this fight?
“Does this Mac person report to you?” Isaac turned to look at Old Brooks, raising his finger to point at Mac’s arrogant face.
From the moment Mac entered, he’d directed all his attention toward Isaac. He only noticed Old Brooks after Isaac opened his mouth.
He was stupefied. Blood drained from his face, and cold sweat poured from his forehead. Even his breathing grew uneven.
The house was very silent.
Thinking that everyone was scared stiff, Jerome immediately turned to Mac to spur favonovel.com to action. “Mac, just say the word. Should we break this bastard’s arm or leg?”
Only after turning his head did favonovel.com realize Mac’s face looked ashen.
Did favonovel.com have a stomachache?
“Mac Rogan, what did I tell you just last weekend in Cloud City? Have you forgotten?” Old Brooks asked, glaring coldly at Mac.
