"I was careless." Lester stared coldly at this.
When Jenny appeared, Lester was guarded by his subordinates.
Jenny looked at Lester with a serious expression and said, "Godfather, you adopted me and raised me up, so I don't want to be your enemy. If we continue fighting, no one will get any benefits. Why don't you let us go?"
Summer quietly rolled to a corner when Jenny was talking to Lester. Lester did not order his subordinates to kill Summer, so Summer had to stay away from them.
It was the animosity between Lester and Stanley, so they wouldn't harm Summer.
Summer was glad that Leonardo did not come. If Leonardo did come, there would be three sides. Summer was seen as Leonardo's soft spot, so the other two sides would definitely not let her go easily.
Summer rolled to the farthest corner from them, held onto the wall, and slowly sat on the ground, looking at Jenny and Lester.
"If you are sincere enough, I can let you go." As Lester spoke, he made his subordinates a sign to bring Summer over here.
As for Lester, Stanley didn't fear him at all. Leonardo was the only one Lester feared.
Leonardo was always changeable and presumptuous, so Lester had no confidence to control him.
Considering that Leonardo was uncontrollable, Lester had no choice but to threaten him with Summer.
Lester should have had another bargaining chip, but now, he only had Summer at his hand, so he could not let her go.
Jenny started to negotiate with Lester, but his subordinates didn't stop fighting.
Seeing someone was about to catch Summer, Stanley threw his dagger toward that man.
In a second, the dagger plunged into that man's chest, and that man fell down.
