Tyler blinked innocently after making the threat.
Elena: "..."
This man looked like he was throwing a tantrum, but his words hid a ruthless streak.
Just then, one of Tyler's subordinates rushed over.
"Mr. Smith, bad news! Something's happened!"
"What is it?"
"Our guys over at the pier... they got jumped. Someone beat them up and stole the shipment."
"Outrageous! Who dares touch the Black Meridian Syndicate? Let's go!"
Tyler was furious, ready to settle the score immediately.
He glanced back at Elena. "Boss, I have to go handle some business."
"Go."
Tyler and his men arrived at the pier to find his crew lying on the ground.
Some were dead, others injured, wails of pain filling the air.
The attackers had used axes; this was clearly a premeditated ambush.
"Who did this?"
"It looked like Travis Jenkins's crew, but we aren't certain!"
"Damn it, they have a death wish!" Tyler ordered his men to charge.
He had already alerted the Black Meridian Syndicate's elites. This time, he was going to wipe out Travis Jenkins's people completely.
He and Travis shared a blood feud that could not be resolved with words.
A vicious brawl erupted on the docks.
Two armies of gangsters clashed.
In the shadows of the night, it was a bloodbath.
Since Lucas said everything was free, she had tried just about every amenity on board.
"Okay! I had so much fun today. Elena, that massage was heavenly. I've never experienced anything like it..."
As they walked out, they ran into Bianca and Hannah.
"Oh, look who's still here. I thought we were the last ones. Seems someone enjoyed themselves so much they couldn't bear to leave," Hannah sneered.
"What business is it of yours? Didn't you enjoy the free service just as much?" Michelle retorted immediately.
She had seen Hannah taking full advantage of the perks.
"Michelle, I wasn't talking to you. Why are you interrupting?"
"So you were talking about me?" Elena glanced at her.
Hannah looked at her with disdain. "So what if I was? You certainly soaked up the limelight today. Are you satisfied? Bianca organized this party, Bianca found the yacht, yet some people are experts at swooping in and stealing all the credit."
"Hannah, watch your mouth. If Elena hadn't stepped in to save the situation, would you be enjoying any of this? Those activities cost a fortune—how many could you afford on your own? Unlike some people who try to act big but get slapped in the face because Mr. Maddox couldn't care less about them!" Michelle fired back sarcastically.
