He was munching on candy, but somehow, it gave off the vibe that he was puffing on a cigar.
As everyone stood around confused about Colby's intentions, he didn't even bother to look up. With just a slight raise of his hand, the Costello family's personal guards stormed in through the door.
James' bodyguards, although well-trained, were no match for the Costello family's elite forces, who were trained to rigorous standards every day. Facing the Costello guards, who looked like mercenaries, everyone started to feel the panic set in. They all wondered if they’d end up caught in the crossfire between these two powerhouses.
"No one is gonna leave this room today."
Colby’s voice was calm and steady. The Costello guards had already drawn their tasers, making everyone swallow nervously.
Since Colby's arrival in Devonport, he had kept a low profile, making everyone forget what he was originally known for! Colby was a fearless daredevil. Even though he now ran the Costello Corporation and had toned down his actions, his nature never changed. If he decided to pick up the butcher's knife, they had no choice but to wait for their doom!
Faced with the choice between money or life, those present quickly made up their minds. The ones James had persuaded earlier now didn't dare take a single step forward.
James frowned slightly.
Colby stepped forward, his eyes twinkling with amusement, "Today’s my engagement party with Sophie. Mr. Burke, are you sticking around to celebrate?"
Sensing the amusement in Colby's eyes, James replied coldly, "No thank you."
"Well, the Aldridge family didn't invite you tonight. Please take your men and leave, Mr. Burke."
Upstairs, Gordon sat in his wheelchair. This was the Aldridge family's territory, and over the years, James was the first to cause trouble here.
