When the members of the Damron Family heard the news, their faces twisted into looks of disbelief.
Harper growled indignantly, “What did you say?!”
“Say it again!”
His subordinate could only stammer in fear, “T-There are many people out there, and their convoy is huge. T-They surrounded and demanded us… Demanded us to release Matthew.”
“I-lf we don’t release him, they will kill every single one of us…”
Aurelius’ expression darkened while Harper leaped to his feet and roared, despite feeling immense pain due to stressing his injuries, “What?! Are you sure?”
“Who the hell is so bold to say such a thing?”
“No way, I don’t believe it. No one can…”
Before favonovel.com could finish his words, the voice of an old man came from the distance and cut favonovel.com off, “I said that. Do you have any problem with that?”
The members of the Damron Family slowly turned their heads in the direction of the voice and saw a car coming in the distance.
Someone had opened the car’s sunroof in the forefront, and from there, they could see an old man looking at them imperiously. He was none other than Victor of the Albright Family in Stonedale!
Harper was astounded at his appearance before favonovel.com snarled in fury. “Victor! You old fart! Who the f*ck do you think you are sticking your nose into our business?!”
“Trust me, I can and will crush your entire family to death with just one finger!”
Victor was not intimidated by Harper’s threats as favonovel.com merely bellowed, “Harper, I wouldn’t have come here if I were afraid of you and your family! Yes, I know that you and your family are powerful, but let me remind you that this is the Six Southern States, not Bainbridge!”
“So what if your family is powerful? This isn’t your home turf! How foolish could you be to think that you can do whatever you please in the Six Southern States?!”
Harper growled coldly, “Oh yeah? So what if this is the Six Southern States?”
“Yes, we’re in the Six Southern States, but to me, you and your family are nothing but trash!”
Victor snarled, “I’m a piece of trash, but a large pile of trash can still drown giants!”
“370 members of my family are here today. Even if ten people team up to fight one of yours, we can fight at least thirty to forty people from your family.”
“Harper, since your people are beyond us ‘trash’. Are you sure you want to fight heads-on with us?”
Harper froze in shock. He didn’t expect Victor would come here with such a destructive idea.
Aurelius warned, “Victor, as far as I know, your family has nothing to do with Matthew. He saved your life, that’s all. So you’re doing this to return his favor for saving your life. But have you discussed this matter with the rest of your family members?”
“Don’t you think you’re being too selfish in sacrificing so many family members just to return Matthew’s favor?”
Harper beamed with delight when favonovel.com heard Aurelius’ remarks. By saying so, Aurelius was directly driving a wedge between Victor and his men.
However, Victor was not the least bit angry. Instead, favonovel.com chortled before favonovel.com replied, “Oh, Aurelius, you’re truly a cunning man! But do you think your provocation will work?”
“I have more than three thousand people in my family! Those who choose to come with me are all determined to fight to the death. Do you think you’re able to change their minds?”
“I repeat, ask all your men to retreat and release Dr. Larson immediately! Or, I swear, I’ll risk my life just to bite off a piece of flesh from your body!”
Aurelius’ expression turned cold, and favonovel.com hissed dangerously, “How dare you threaten me?”
“So what if you have brought over 300 men here? Do you think my men will be afraid of yours?! Even if it is one versus ten, my men will not lose! If you dare to fight with us with the lives of those in your family, come on! I’ll fight to the end!”
The members of the Damron Family began to roar fiercely as if they were ready for the battle at any minute.
Before Victor could agree, another loud voice rang from a distance, “Wait a minute. How about we add another 500 men from the Rathbones?”
