"Hey, Noah, what's wrong with you? Why hasn't he arrived by now? We're all waiting at Blue Diamond Club, and, is that boy Kevin coming? You promised me that you would bring him over, do your family still want the project in South City?" Lawrence's voice, arrogantly, came over.
Ruby raised her eyebrows lightly and looked at Noah.
Noah's face was bashful and he scolded with a strained neck, "Who wants the South City project? Don't talk nonsense! Kevin has something to do, so he can't come, and I also have something to deal with on my side, so I won't go over."
"Noah, you should think clearly, if you reject me today, not only will you lose the project in South City, your family, I guess, won't be able to stay in Sea City either." Without waiting for Noah to finish his words, Lawrence grunted and coldly threatened.
Noah's face changed and he hung up the phone straight away, sullenly without speaking.
Ruby understood by now why Noah had cooperated with Lawrence and fooled Kevin into going to the Blue Diamond Club.
"The Moss family is very powerful in Sea City?" Ruby had never heard of the Moss family, so she twisted her head to look at Levi, asking his opinion.
"Generally, it is a third-rate family, business not big, but they have a family member who works in the municipal party committee, so some not particularly important projects are able to gained, now in Sea City, it is kind of rich." Levi pondered for a moment and searched inside his mind for some information about this person Lawrence Moss.
It was also thanks to the fact that Lawrence was a jerk and had done a lot of jerky things, especially the fact that he was also involved in smuggling drugs, that he made it onto the watch list of District 7, and only then did Levi know something about the Moss family.
"Oh, the system is so chaotic now? With a bit of connections, they dare to do whatever they want." Ruby laughed mockingly and just wanted to take out her phone to send a message to Dottie, asking her to deal with the Moss family.
Levi then spoke up, "This Moss family also has some ties with the gang over at the overseas drugs group, District 7 had been chasing this, it's almost time to close the net. Since they can't wait for death now, I can make it happen, so you don't have to do anything."
Levi said and looked at Ruby.
Ruby touched her nose sheepishly and did not say anything.
In front of Levi, she had no secret.
Since Levi had the intention to cover for her, she was happy to be at ease.
Levi made a call to Chester and told him to deal with the Moss family, as well as to get rid of the person in the system.
At this moment, in the Harold’ s villa, Rita's face was white and her clothes were in disarray as she fell to the ground, with a bruised and battered Susan beside her.
Susan's eyes were full of fear as she looked at the group of black-clad men who had suddenly appeared in the house, not understanding what was going on at all.
"Who the hell are you people? What do you want to do!?" Rita asked, tugging at her collar and shivering.
The man looked at Rita from above, raised his foot and stepped on her chest, causing Rita to almost vomit out a mouthful of blood in pain.
Her face grew whiter and whiter as she looked at the man in black in front of her, a wave of fear coming over her.
"Whatever you want, we can give it to you, don't kill me, please, don't kill me." Rita was really scared.
She had a hard time recently.
The Harold family was bankrupt.
Lennon was crazy, and the Finn family didn't even acknowledge what was going on between her and Lennon.
She originally thought she could use the child inside her belly to threaten the Finn family, but the baby was aborted for no reason. What was more, because she had too many miscarriages, the doctor judged that she would never be able to get pregnant again.
These months she followed Susan, living a harsh life, and finally could not stand it anymore before returning to the Harold family.
