It turned out that Emily had phoned Henry and alerted him of the situation. She even gave him the address of the restaurant, asking him to come over.“Who are you, boy? How dare you attack my men?” Baker asked, with a menacing expression that suggested he wanted to bite Henry’s head off. “Who I am is not important. For the sake of your safety, Let’s just let this incident slide,” Henry replied curtly. “Let it slide? Who the fuck do you think you are? I’ll just let it slide just because you said so? — Just as he was about to curse, a beer bottle smashed into his head. Blood and beer trickled down his face. Everyone was appalled! The onlookers‘ eyes bulged with looks of utter disbelief. No one had expected Henry to be so bold. He had hit the Baker just because of a disagreement. He showed no hesitation. He must be out of his mind! After a brief moment of silence, the whole bar exploded in an uproar. “He’s done for! This young man is dead! No one can save him!” “I must say I ad
“Sir Hayes?!” The moment the man appeared, the Baker’s spirits lifted dramatically. The bar went into an uproar, and the crowd retreated in respect. They knew that the man they were looking at was someone even the Baker bowed to! “Shit! Sir Hayes’s here!” Emily’s expression changed. She could only imagine the magnitude of the influence and background of someone in Mr. Hayes’s league. “How foolish! If he had let Sir Baker go earlier. Too bad now that Sir Hayes is here. He dug his own grave!” “I don’t care if he dies, but he’s dragging us down with him. What bad luck!” Mrs Millers and the others were shocked and terrified at the same time. They couldn’t even afford to offend the Baker, much less the man behind him, who was none other than Sir Hayes. “You fool! Sir Hayes is here. Aren’t you going to surrender?” shouted the Baker. Sir Hayes did not only have a strong family background, but he was also extremely powerful. He had seen Sir Hayes get away with killing dozens of men w
Meanwhile, outside the bar, Robert arrived with the company’s bodyguards. When he saw that Emily and the others were safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief. “Ms. Emily, is everything resolved?” “I guess you could say that.” Emily nodded. “I heard this is the Baker’s turf and thought there might be trouble. I didn’t think it would be so easy. I’m sure Mr. Micheal is to thank for this?” Robert smiled. The suggestion caused Micheal’s expression to sour immediately. This man just had to annoy him! “Hmm? Why is he here?” Robert wondered as he spotted Henry leaving the bar. He questioned, “What are you guys still doing here? Waiting for someone to take revenge on you? I don’t have the energy to save you again.” He spoke with a calm voice, grasping a bag in his hands. “Who needs saving? You’re so nosy!” Mrs Millers snapped rudely. “Hpmh! Stop showing off. If it wasn’t for Ethan Murphy, could you have walked out of there alive?” Solomon mocked brashly. “That’s enough!” Emily wa
“I don’t give a damn if he digs his own grave, but to drag Emily with him? What a bastard!” Solomon scowled with resentment. “Now’s not the time for this. Quick, we need to think of a way to save Ms. Emily!” said Robert. “You’re right! We have to find a way. I know a friend who works at the police station. I’ll give him a call at once!” “I know a relative who has connections with some police officers of higher ranks. I’ll find out if he can offer us any help.” Suddenly, the air was filled with the excited chattering of everyone in the group, gathering assistance from anyone they could think of. *******Nighttime, in the interrogation room of the police station. Henry and Emily sat with their backs against each other, bound to the chairs in the middle of the room. The air in the room was cool and damp, and darkness shrouded them completely. They could feel an invisible weight on their shoulders. “My bad, I didn’t mean to drag you into this mess,” Henry spoke first. “They cl
“What if I am?” the inspector sneered. The cigar hung from his teeth as he continued with disdain, “I know you have some punch in you, but even superpowers won’t be useful in my territory! Besides, need I remind you that your gorgeous girlfriend will be very popular if she ends up in prison! Even if you could not care less about yourself, you should keep her in mind! That is, if you can bear watching as the other prisoners ravage such a delicate beauty!” Henry’s expression hardened. Murderous intent seeped from his eyes. “If you dare touch her, rest assured that nothing but death will await you!” While his aggressive remark stunned Emily, she couldn’t help the warmth that filled her chest. “Haha! You can barely stand up for yourself. And to think, you’re trying to threaten me! If you have brains in that head of yours, just apologize to Ethan Murphy publicly. Otherwise, you can’t blame me if I throw your beloved in prison! Give it some thought. You’ll have thirty minutes to think it
Meanwhile, in Alex Morris mansion. Jonathan Adam's walked into the house with a stern expression on his face. When he entered the living room, Alex was seated on the couch watching the news.You're sitting here while something bad happens!”Jonathan walked into the room with a very serious expression on his face as if he was about to do something unimaginable.Alex was startled at Jonathan's sudden visit and he quickly took the remote and off the television.“You made me scared. You didn't even knock. Sorry, what bad thing happened? Did someone offend you or something? Tell me?" Alex asked, sitting in a more upright position. “huff. Nobody can dare offend me in this city. Though, Something big really did happen!” Jonathan tried to maintain a calm expression.“Now tell what’s going on? You have me tensed and filled with anxious uncertainty,” Alex's eyes stared curiously at Jonathan's.“It’s about Mr. Brown. He’s been arrested by Fisher!” Jonathan exploded. “What?” Alex started trem
“Oh? Did I? Why is it that I’m not aware of this?” Mr. Fisher questioned. His heart skipped a beat, but he didn’t let it show. He asked, “Mr. Alex, did something happen?” “Fisher! Don’t you dare pull tricks on me! Heed my order and release Henry right this instant! Or else, don’t blame me for cutting you off for good!” Alex yelled into the phone. “Mr. Morris, there must have been a misunderstanding! I don’t know a Henry at all. How about I look into it for you?” The officer desperately put on an act by lying. There was no way he would spill the beans on the plan. “Alright then, you fat bastard. You have no idea what you’re getting yourself into! Mark my words–if anything happens to Henry, you and your whole family will go down with him!” Alex hung up the phone with a threatening growl: “Did that old man get up on the wrong side of the bed today?” grumbled Fisher, his displeasure written all over his face. “Sir, what’s wrong?” the Baker asked cautiously. “What’s wrong? Where di
“Fisher, you have pushed my limits!” Henry kicked the shackles aside and rushed towards him. “Quick, stop this kid!” Mr. Fisher screamed for help. The burly men immediately surrounded Henry, and all of them attacked him at the same time. “Get out of my way!” A surge of energy was released when Henry stomped his heel on the ground. The sheer force threw the men backward and crash into the walls of the interrogation room. All of them were dead in an instant, bleeding from their internal wounds. “Help, anybody! Please help!” Mr. Fisher turned pale and whirled around to escape. Henry kicked the limp body of a man lying beside him. It flew like a bullet and crashed into Mr. Fisher, who was attempting to escape. He screamed in pain and fell to the ground, unable to run any longer. “I’ve warned you not to touch her.” Henry strolled up to him and hissed murderously, his eyes boring dangerously into Mr. Fisher. “Kid, don’t forget you’re in the police station! You can’t go too far!” Mr
