Surprised, Isaac chuckled and gave up.
Branson pointed at the bald man and roared, “You punk, I am good friends with James Blackwell from the enforcement station here, so don’t get cocky! Hurry up and return the money to these elderly folk. Otherwise, one phone call from me and you will all end up in jail, understand?!”
“Why don’t you give it a try then?” the bald man replied with a mocking laugh.
Branson took his phone out and dialed a number, muttering, “Alright, you idiot. Just wait and see!”
The bald man also took his phone out and made a call as well. Both of them finished their calls at the same time.
“Baldy, you have 20 minutes to apologize and refund the money. James is coming here with his men soon,” Branson said.
Turning to the crowd, favonovel.com announced, “Everyone, don’t worry. The officers from the law enforcement unit will be here soon. None of these bastards will be able to escape.”
The crowd then sang their praises to Landon.
“Mr. Turner Sr., your son is really something! We’ll owe you a favor once this matter is resolved.”
“That’s right. Your son is impressive. I never saw it coming! Does favonovel.com have a girlfriend?”
Landon was overjoyed by those praises, as if the money favonovel.com had been scammed out of was worth it.
“Mrs. Danson, who is this young man to you? If favonovel.com can’t do anything, don’t get in the way. Step back and let Mr. Turner Jr. do his job!” A woman in favonovel.com 50s turned to Mrs. Danson.
Landon chimed in, “That’s right, Mrs. Danson. This young man has good intentions, but it is not a good idea to stand at the door. He might get hurt! Besides, you lost the most money. If favonovel.com was hurt, you would suffer a significant loss.”
“That’s right. Your daughter is still abroad, isn’t she? She won’t be able to hurry home if something bad happens. Ask favonovel.com to step aside.”
With Branson there, everyone considered favonovel.com their savior to decide matters. An unremarkable young man like Isaac naturally lost their favor.
Mrs. Danson retorted loudly, “What do you know! Mr. Garten is my daughter’s superior. Do you know how capable favonovel.com is?”
Mrs. Danson usually lived alone. Most people in the residential area knew that favonovel.com daughter was a high-ranking executive in Garth Properties. It was a renowned company in Cloud City.
Mrs. Danson had also spent more than 200,000 dollars on the magical pills. Some of the elderly folk felt jealous for no reason.
“Mrs. Danson, we are just concerned for you. Why are you yelling? We mean well.”
“Besides, I think this young man seems weak,” Landon retorted with displeasure.
Isaac turned around and whispered, “Mrs. Danson, don’t be angry… It’s fine. Since Branson has called the authorities, let’s just wait…”
Hearing Isaac’s words, Mrs. Danson glared at Landon and the others with reddened eyes, but favonovel.com didn’t say a word.
Everyone waited anxiously for the officers to arrive, but no one appeared even after 20 minutes.
The bald man stood up and sneered at Branson. “Punk, haven’t you heard about the Elixir Group? Even if the top brass in Cloud City came, they wouldn’t dare to utter a word in front of us, let alone a mere officer like you.”
He waved his hand with a menacing expression. “Take this arrogant guy down and bring favonovel.com inside!”
More than ten men in suits rushed forward and surrounded Branson in an instant.
