Chapter 101 The Head of the Blount Family
Keith Blount collapsed, trembling and sweating profusely, his face filled with shock. He couldn’t believe that Billy had killed Mona Romero.
“Sorry… Sorry sir… Please spare my life, please…” he begged while kowtowing vigorously.
He didn’t doubt for a moment that Billy would kill him too!
“Are you the first son of the Blount family?” Billy sat down on the couch and said, “You have half an hour to call your family to save you!”
With that, Billy took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up.
Keith’s eyes showed a glimmer of hope as he quickly pulled out his phone to make the call.
Brandon Blount came here for one purpose only-to win over Damon Arnold so that he could use Damon’s power to push the Blount family into Ozin’s top tier. Since the Watkins, Jimenez and Malcom families had been overthrown, several major families in Ozin that were originally in the second tier had become active again.
Before Harleen entered the office, on the east side of the city, Brandon Blount, the leader of the Blount family, was waiting in the conference hall of an estate owned by Damon who was the underground kingpin in Ozin.
All those big families were trying their best to convey their alliance intentions towards them. The Blount family was one of Ozin’s most prominent second-tier families whose power was only inferior to the disappeared three major families but had great potential for promotion into Ozin’s first-class wealthy clan. For them, this was a good opportunity.
It was well known that currently in Ozin, the two most influential figures were Derek Hines from World Group and Master Eight.
Two minutes later, the two men arrived at a reception room.
“Sorry for keeping you waiting, Mr Blount. Please forgive us.” Damon said as he looked at Brandon Blount who was seated before him.
“Mr Blount, thank you for your patience. Please come inside.” Ezio added shortly after.
“Thank you, Ezio.” Brandon Blount bowed slightly. He knew very well that Damon was not only the underground king of Ozin but also had an extraordinary relationship with Derek. It was something that his own family could not compare to.
“You’re welcome,” Damon gestured towards a nearby sofa. “Please have a seat.”
Brandon replied with another bow and said, “Sorry to bother you, Master Eight.”
Although he was the head of the Blount family, he dared not show any arrogance in front of Damon Arnold.
“Master Eight is a legendary figure and I have always wanted to meet you.” Brandon took a deep breath before continuing. “However, I worried that you might look down on me so I waited until today to pay my respects. Please don’t be offended by my tardiness.”
“Thank you, Master Eight!” After taking his seat on the sofa offered by Damon, Brandon pulled out a check from his pocket and placed it on top of the tea table between them. He said, “This is just a small token of appreciation; please accept it as my respect!”
“What does this mean?” Damon glanced briefly at the nine zeros written on it before narrowing his eyes slightly.
Ever since there were issues among three major families in Ozin, Derek had already warned him about being cautious during these times.
“I won’t beat around bush.” After pausing for moment, Brandon continued speaking.
“You’re too kind, Mr Blount.” Damon lifted his teacup and took a sip. “I am just a reckless man, I dare not accept such a great gift from you.”
He knew very well that he couldn’t take this money.
“You think highly of me, Mr Blount.” Damon put down his teacup. “I’m afraid I have no interest in this cake of business. You may need to find someone else.”
“Master Eight…” Brandon Blount was slightly stunned. “You should know better than me that there are opportunities everywhere in Ozin now. I hope to form an alliance with Master Eight and take down the cake together. Of course, as for how to split the cake, everything will be up to your decision, Mater Eight.”
Just as Brandon was about to put down his phone, it rang again.
“Excuse me, Master Eight, let me take this call.”
Brandon saw that it was his son and was about to decline after putting it through, but Keith Blount’s panicked voice came through the receiver immediately.
“Dad! Someone wants to kill me! If you don’t get to the company within half an hour.. you’ll never see me again…”
Brandon Blount was stunned for a moment and asked, “What’s going on?”
“It doesn’t matter; please go ahead with your business.” Damon said while lighting a cigar and started smoking.From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Sorry, Master Eight, but my son has run into some trouble, I got to leave now and come to visit you another day.”
“Oh? Does anyone in Ozin dare to cause trouble for your son now?” Damon casually mentioned.
…
Keith Blount said something on the phone, and Brandon Blount replied with a hint of anger, “Hold him there, I’ll be there soon!”
After speaking, he hung up the phone and looked at Damon.
“I’m not sure yet!” Brandon Blount said while shaking his head. “According to my son’s information, it seems to be the man who’s the husband of the eldest daughter of the Knight family.”
“A restless kid who threatened to kill my son for a woman. He thinks that the Blounts are soft!” Brandon said after standing up.
“Oh?” Damon paused and felt curious in his heart. “Who is he?”
“Mr Blount, you had better pray that your precious son hasn’t made a big mistake yet!” While speaking, Damon stood up and walked towards the door.
“Master Eight, where are you going?”
The teacup suddenly dropped from Damon’s hand. He asked Brandon, “Are you sure?”
“Do you know that kid?” Brandon was slightly surprised when he saw Damon’s reaction.
A bead of sweat about the size of a soybean dripped from Brandon’s forehead, and a strong sense of unease rose in his heart as his right eyelid twitched uncontrollably.
“If you’re any slower, not only your son, but also the Blount family can’t even survive!” Damon spoke with a deep voice.
That startled Brandon.
…
“Dad, why did you take so long to come? If you came any later, you wouldn’t have seen me!”
In less than half an hour, Damon, Ezio and Brandon appeared in Keith Blount’s office.
But when Brandon saw the security guard lying on the ground and Mona dead nearby, his body trembled uncontrollably.
When Keith saw that only his father was there, he became confused as he asked, “Dad, why didn’t you bring anyone with you?”
Bang!
With his father here, Keith regained his confidence. Although Billy’s skills shocked him, Keith was confident that they could take down Billy since the Blount family had many martial arts experts.
Brandon then took a few steps forward and kicked his son to the ground with force. Keith curled up on the ground and began vomiting continuously.
Without the slightest hesitation, Brandon knelt before Billy who sat on the sofa and began trembling all over.
“Mr… Mr Gardner… I’m sorry for not teaching my son properly. Please forgive me…”
