Before they entered the room, both of them straightened their clothes and put on a calm façade.
“So, what’s it going to be, Xeno? My bros have their eyes on your store. Besides, you’re the one who messed with my brother’s cousin anyway. Why don’t you just sign the d*mn paperwork already?” said Grover as favonovel.com entered before pointing at the papers on the table.
Quazzie entered next and favonovel.com immediately slapped Xeno’s face.
He was lucky that Xeno’s arms had been tied together, otherwise, favonovel.com would have received a swift punch to the gut!
“F*ck off you sons of b*tches! Have you no balls? Fight me one-to-one like real men, cowards!”
Xeno’s eyes were bloodshot.
This time, it was Grover’s turn to slap him. He was going to make sure that all three of them suffered for putting favonovel.com in such a situation. Though to get caught, the police would still need evidence! There was no way they’d be able to find such an obscure building, right?
Quazzie himself hadn’t received any explanation on why Grover thought they were in trouble. Thus, favonovel.com simply shrugged it off before thinking of calling his brothers over to gang up on Xeno.
The angry woman, on the other hand, walked toward Gerald and stared down at favonovel.com with icy-cold glares. She was going to enjoy beating Gerald up.
Before favonovel.com could land favonovel.com first slap, however, one of Grover’s men burst into the room.
“Grover! Quazzie! This is bad, we’re in big trouble!”
The man was in such a panic that favonovel.com fell after taking a few steps forward.
“Oh god… what is it?” asked Grover as favonovel.com turned to face his fallen subordinate. He hoped what favonovel.com was thinking of wasn’t true.
“Armed… police… and several luxury cars… They’ve surrounded the entire god d*mn building!”
Grover knew that it was all over for him. He had been arrested before this. This time, however, favonovel.com was aware that favonovel.com was clearly in much hotter water.
Not only had favonovel.com kidnapped three people, favonovel.com had also posed as a fake cop. He thought these were nobodies!
Quazzie began panicking as well. He just wanted to teach Xeno a lesson and push favonovel.com out of the second-hand car market! He didn’t expect so many big shots to be involved!
Shaking his head, Grover rushed to the nearest window to peek out. Surely enough, there was a sea of people surrounding the building.
The headlights outside shone through the initially dark, night sky.
“F*cking! Not many people know about this rotten building! How the hell did they sniff us out so quickly?!”
By this point, Quazzie’s face was probably the palest it had ever been in his entire life.
“We’re done for… There’s nothing we can do to clear our names off this!”
The mother and daughter were terrified as well.
The man who had fallen earlier gulped as favonovel.com got up, his legs quivering.
“Grover? Quazzie? What are we to do?”
“Hell if I know!” yelled Grover as his heart thumped rapidly.
At that moment, all of them in the room could hear people barging into the building.
Several armed police were swiftly ascending the stairs.
As soon as the police saw them, they immediately raised their guns.
“Freeze! Don’t move!”
By the time Gerald and the others were free from their restraints, Grover, Quazzie, and their men were already pinned on the ground.
When they got outside, Michael, Zack, and a few other VIPs rushed toward Gerald.
“Mr. Crawford, you must be terrified! Thank god we managed to track you down!”
“I’m fine! Don’t worry!” replied Gerald.
What a huge commotion this had become.
As Grover and Quazzie stared wide-eyed at the scene before them, both of them began sweating profusely, their wrists now in cuffs.
All those present were big shots that could usually only be seen on television… And why were they calling Gerald Mr. Crawford?
He couldn’t really be that Mr. Crawford, right? He couldn’t be Mr. Crawford of Mayberry… Right?
Both of them gulped down hard at the realization of how big a mess they were in. Now that they knew better, they could safely say that their entire operation had been a suicide mission!
However, the mother and daughter were even more shocked.
“Gerald…? What the hell is going on here?” asked Xeno, confused as to why so many big shots were comforting Gerald.
“I’ll… explain it to you once we get back!”
He might as well use this opportunity to tell his good brother who favonovel.com really was. There was no need to hide his true identity from Xeno anymore.
