Mance nodded his head. “Let me ask you. How hard did Zeke Williams attack you?”
“As hard as he could, of course,” Senior Panther replied.
Mance nodded again and threw a bank card to them. “There’s one hundred thousand in this card. Take the money and get out of here.”
Senior Panther and Junior Panther were thrilled.
They never thought they would get paid!
They had not expected Mance to still give them the money even after the mission had failed.
Mance is really generous!
Both of them quickly took the money and left.
As soon as they left, a blond-hair guy came out from the washroom.
He had a scorpion tattoo on his face which made him looked even ferocious.
“How good is Zeke Williams?” The blond-hair man asked.
Mance sneered with disdain, “Not good at all. He couldn’t even hurt those two men. I’m pretty sure Zeke is not the one who attacked me that night. He’s not the master. Scorpio, it’s your turn now. Go get him!”
Mance had used Emily Clemons the other night to test Zeke. He wanted to find out if Zeke was the man in black who had attacked him.
If he were that man in black, Scorpio could never be his match.
But Mance had gotten it wrong and had overestimated him.
Scorpio nodded. “Alright. I’ll go and take him down now.”
“Scorpio, even if you can’t kill him on the spot, you must stop him from saving Dawn and Nancy. Remember that!” Mance ordered.
“Don’t worry. I’m Scorpio. No one can get away from me!”
......
On the way out of the province, a Mercedes Benz was speeding.
Senior Panther and Junior Panther were inside the car.
Both of them were looking so happy.
Senior Panther guffawed, “We’ve earned one hundred thousand by just taking a blow! It’s easy money!”
“Well, I will do it again even he gave me two! Ha-Ha!” Junior Panther laughed and chimed in.
But after a short silence, Senior Panther suddenly palpitated and covered his chest with his hands, “Damn it! I felt my heartache! I can’t breathe! What about you?”
Junior Panther felt his heart ache pain as well, and he groaned, “I felt my heart twinge. It felt so tight.”
Then, at the same time, both of them spit blood out from their mouth!
Their heads went blank for a moment. The pain had become so unbearable.
They lost control of the car and crashed into a big truck. Just before the collision, something crossed their minds.
Internal injuries!
The kick from Zeke Williams had caused them some serious internal injuries!
He is stronger than we thought!
......
Dawn, who had always been optimistic, was now feeling down.
The closer she got to the Castaneda family, the more depressed she was.
Although she belonged to the family, she had no feelings for them.
We’re not even related. We’re just his illegitimate children!
Before she was five-years-old, she used to live in a cheap rental house with her mother and brother.
When her mother died, her father had no choice but to take them back to the Castaneda family.
But the Castaneda family had always looked down on them, calling them ba****ds secretly. Even the servants rolled their eyes when seeing them.
Their father ignored them too. He did not care for them. All his attention went to their stepmother, Monica.
I’m treated worse than a servant in the house!
Thus, she learned to be independent. During her college years, she worked part-time to cover her personal-expenses and did not take any money from the family.
She lived with Lacey after she graduated and had never been back after that.
The Linton Group and Lacey were her home and family. The Castaneda family was just dispensable to her.
She thought she would never come back, but her father had fallen sick.
She had no choice. He’s my father, after all. I should see him one last time.
She stood in front of the door and hesitating for a long time before going in.
But as soon as she walked in, she was stunned.
