Leonardo and his sons were shocked when they heard this news.
Oasis City was the second-largest gambling city in the world. The three casino hotels and six smaller casinos were all moneymakers for the Bezos family. Each casino generated at least tens of millions of dollars in profit daily.
Gamblers would always prefer to gamble at one of the Bezos-owned casinos. The reason was simple-safety.
The Bezos family’s casinos had excellent service and environments. But they also guaranteed their clients’ absolute safety.
The Bezoses started their business more than 20 years ago. They had always prioritized their clients’ safety. The bodyguards weren’t there just for show, after all. But, the Bezos family had a close relationship with the local authorities.
In other words, their casinos would always remain untouched even if there were police operations going on nearby. Yet, they’d just been informed today that these few casinos left untouched for at least 20 years had to close down.
They’d been forced to do that by an army of men in black armor.
Anyone who resisted was instantly wrestled to the ground. At least a dozen of them were also beaten to death.
“Where are the authorities? Are the authorities f*cking dead as well?” Leonardo hollered.
“W-We don’t know. We havenāt heard back from the authorities,” Ward explained. Huge drops of sweat were forming on his forehead.
Wagner’s phone rang suddenly. He saw that it was an unknown number. He buffed and answered the call in frustration, “Who is this?”
“Wagner Bezos. If you still want your casinos back, come to Nick Charter’s home in Pinnacle Pines. Our boss will be waiting there… I know that you’re all in Cantonne right now. You have exactly one hour…”
The call ended. Wagner was still in shock.
“Father, this is all Nick’s doing. Someone just called me saying that we should apologize at his home. Otherwise, we won’t get our casinos back,” Wagner relayed to Leonardo anxiously.
Leonardo narrowed his eyes at Wagner. He knew Nick’s capability. Nick could get hundreds of bodyguards to protect him. But favonovel.com had no power or authority to forcibly shut down all of their casinos.
“Ward, gather the best people we have and head over to Pinnacle Pines. I want to find out who the f*ck this Cynean brat thinks favonovel.com is!”
Leonardo paused for a while. He continued, “Wagner, call up the Cantonne authorities and request protection for our team!”
He had a feeling that whatever happened tonight was a lot more complicated than they thought. The person waiting for them at Pinnacle Pines had to be the one behind everything.
Who the f*ck is he?!
***
The weather in coastal cities was often very unpredictable. It started raining very heavily around midnight. There was thunder and lightning everywhere.
A total of eight luxury cars and three police cars arrived at Nick’s house in Pinnacle Pines.
Ward went up and held an umbrella over Leonardo’s head. Wagner and his two brothers followed suit. They walked toward the mansion under the protection of around 30 bodyguards.
About a dozen policemen also came out from their cars and hurried after the group.
There were bodyguards stationed outside Nick’s mansion. They caught sight of the big group of people entering. A handful of those who were expecting them hurried inside the mansion to report to Nick.
Nick was chatting with Isaac over a cup of coffee in the living room.
The bodyguards suddenly entered with serious expressions on their faces. Loud footsteps were also heard from outside.
Nick’s face darkened as favonovel.com put his coffee on the table.
Leonardo then entered the mansion with a cold look on his face. He walked up to the coffee table in the living room and glared at Isaac.
