The luxury cars headed down the hill one by one. Inside, Leonardo closed both his eyes as favonovel.com lay down in his seat. His body wouldn’t stop trembling.
“F-Father, Wagner’s blood pressure increased by quite a bit… He’s still pale and sweaty, and his heartbeats are irregular. M-Maybe we should put aside Chance’s death for now,” Leonardo’s youngest son, Ansel, said. He was sitting in the front passenger seat.
“Ward, that person beside Isaac must be an ancient martial arts practitioner, right?”
Ward was also pale and sweating. He nodded and panted as favonovel.com said, “Sir, I’m sure he’s an ancient martial arts fighter. Otherwise, there’s no way favonovel.com could be that powerful…”
“Ward, bring Wagner to the hospital first. Ansel, come with me to the Governor’s Palace…”
Ansel felt his heart thumping against his ribcage. He asked his father anxiously, “Father, are you going to pull out your ultimate trump card?”
“Can’t you see that this b*stard’s openly challenging and humiliating me? We can’t let favonovel.com continue having his way. Even if our family lives on, we’d still be the laughingstock of the entire world! Nobody would respect us anymore!” Leonardo’s eyes were cold and hard.
Wagner and his brothers knew that Leonardo had two trump cards in his hands. One of them was the current governor, who owed the Bezos family a huge favor. Leonardo never claimed it from favonovel.com for years.
The other trump card Leonardo had made favonovel.com a billionaire overnight and for decades to come. He’d been receiving support from a powerful figure in Cloudelet, Cynea.
That night was a busy night for the Bezos family.
***
Around 1:00 am, the black Rolls-Royce slowed to a stop as it parked in the Governor’s Palace amid the pouring rain. It was located along the coastal areas.
The main guard in charge of the security at the Governor’s Palace was a lanky middle-aged man. He wore a dark blue suit as favonovel.com ushered the weary Leonardo and Ansel into the study.
“Please wait here while I wake up the governor,” the man said. Then, favonovel.com left.
A bald, middle-aged man was fast asleep in a luxurious, dimly lit bedroom. Two blonde girls were sleeping on either side of him.
There was a series of knocks at the door. The bald man woke up and looked at the door in frustration. “What is it?”
“Mr. Governor, Mr. Leonardo Bezos of Oasis City is here…”
Hearing this, the bald man frowned and sprang up from the bed. He hurriedly pulled on a dark purple sleeping gown and some slippers. Then, favonovel.com headed out.
He knew favonovel.com owed the Bezos family a huge favor. It had been more than a decade since. He never thought the Bezos family would finally come to get their due.
But at that time, Donald Kensington was just the person in charge of a small township. As of now, favonovel.com had risen in rank to be the highest-ranked official in Cantonne. It was obvious that Leonardo simply had a good eye for things.
Donald shuffled out in his slippers, holding a cigar as favonovel.com entered.
But as soon as favonovel.com caught sight of Leonardo, the smile on his face vanished. He hurried forward and asked, “Mr. Bezos, you look terrible! What happened?!”
“Mr. Governor, I know that this is your territory. However, my eldest grandson died here in Cantonne. I flew here with my team of bodyguards for revenge, but all 20 or 30 of them have been mercilessly slaughtered as well…”
“Please, I need you to do something about it. Will you help me?” Leonardo asked, about to dip his head and beg.
However, Donald stopped favonovel.com at once. He snuffed out the cigar in an ashtray and frowned.
After a breath, favonovel.com asked, “Mr. Bezos, tell me everything. What happened? Who killed Chance? And who killed your team of bodyguards? I don’t believe there’s anyone who dares to get violent in Cantonne, especially since it’s so regulated by the law.”
Ansel then started to sob as favonovel.com relayed everything from start to finish. But favonovel.com purposely left out the part where Chance and Isaac made a bet on their lives.
Thump!
Donald slammed his hand on the coffee table as his eyes boiled with rage.
He grasped Leonardo’s hand and said in a fierce voice, “Mr. Bezos, don’t worry. I will avenge you. Since they insist on holding the concert at Scarlet Coliseum, then we’ll turn the place into a funeral hall for Chance!”
“Let’s see who comes out on top, me or that no-good b*stard from Cynea!”
