Dauntless God Of War novel Chapter 228

Wielding batons and other weapons in their hands, the burly men in black suits looked intimidating. Just their aura alone was enough to strike fear into one's heart.

From afar, Harold spotted the middle-aged man who had just been released from prison and noticed that Charlotte did indeed bear some resemblance to him.

There's no doubt that he's Adam.

The moment Adam stepped through the door, he bellowed, “Who was it that dared to stake a claim over my wife and child? Step forward!”

He glanced at Wrenna and Charlotte first, then shifted his gaze to Harold.

The trauma Adam inflicted on Wrenna in the past was so deeply-rooted that she shuddered at his words, and her face turned deathly pale.

“We're doomed!” Wrenna closed her eyes, a look of despair on her face.

“Are you the one who beat up my subordinates and stole my wife and child?” Adam demanded, shooting Harold a terrifying glare.

“That's right. It was me. You must be Adam Cavill, the head honcho of the underground circles in Norwal City and even the whole of Gablurg, aren't you? If you shut down your security company today and promise never to harass Wrenna and her daughter, I'll spare your life. I'm only giving you five minutes to consider the offer.”

In the face of Adam's ferocious expression, Harold still spoke in a firm and assertive tone.

“Why, you little brat! What did you just say?”

Everyone present was dumbfounded by Harold's response, including Wrenna. She could not help thinking her ears had deceived her.

Such insolence! He's way too arrogant! Adam Cavill is the head of Gablurg's underground circle, yet this guy has the audacity to say he'll spare our Don's life!

Those who were present had never seen someone so arrogant!

Justin, who stood respectfully behind Adam, piped up jokingly, “Your aura must've scared him silly, causing him to utter gibberish.”

Adam laughed harshly when he heard that. In a threatening tone, he said to Harold, “You b*stard! I don't care whether you're shaking in your shoes or merely pretending. If you get on your knees and beg for mercy, I might consider leaving your corpse intact!”

Just then, Wrenna stepped in front of Harold once again.

“Adam, I sent you to prison back then, and I can do it again if you dare to cause trouble,” she threatened.

Her words sent him into a fit of cackles. He replied scornfully, “Oh, Wrenny. How are you still so naive when you're already thirty? Do you truly think you were the one who sent me to prison? The truth is that six years ago, a powerful person wanted to consolidate the underground forces and had already taken over almost the entire globe. Hence, I voluntarily went to prison to avoid all that and lie low. Otherwise, you'd never have been able to lay a finger on me even if you possessed astonishing capabilities!”

The subordinates behind him also burst into raucous laughter.

Indeed, Wrenna had thought it strange at the time. I now know why it was so easy for me to get him locked up.

The color drained from her face, and an overwhelming sense of helplessness crept through her body.

In the end, she had no choice but to bow to reality and submit to Adam so that Harold could live.

“Your goal is to have me all to yourself. As long as you let him go, I'll agree to your request,” she said to Adam through clenched teeth.

As she uttered those words, she felt dead inside.

“Hey, you brat! You have one minute to get out of my sight. Once the minute is up, not even the gods can save you. The clock is ticking!”
