Chapter 296 Case Closed
Everyone in the Freedman clan was intelligent and capable. He immediately understood what Donald meant.
What Donald meant was that he did not want others to know that he possessed the Dragon badge. Furthermore, he did not want others to learn that Timothy had offended the holder of the Dragon badge. Those who offended the Dragon badge holder would be expelled from the Freedman clan, or worse, imprisoned for life.
“Yes, Mr. Campbell!” Timothy responded.
“I could not be bothered to do something as heinous as extortion, but I despised that family.” Then, Donald pointed at Timothy. “Get up.”
Timothy stood up, overwhelmed with gratitude. After that, he gave Georgia and her family a sharp glare.
Georgia, Jerome, and the others were stunned. They immediately knelt in front of Ethan. “Mr. Lynch, you have to help us!”
Ethan was about to say something when he noticed Timothy staring at him grimly.
Feeling a pang of fear, Ethan could not help but look at Donald.
“Do you care to explain why a gangster like you would borrow someone else’s privilege to scare and threaten others?” Donald coughed and said casually.
Ethan instantly knelt on the ground. “I made a mistake. I made a grave mistake. Please forgive me, Mr. Campbell.”
“What have you done wrong?” Donald spoke softly.
Ethan was taken aback. He also had no idea what he had done wrong.
Nonetheless, he knew that if he admitted that he did not know the answer, Timothy would undoubtedly send him to meet his maker.
Left with no choice, Ethan yelled, “Anyway, I was wrong!”
“No, you did nothing wrong,” Donald replied.
Feeling overjoyed, Ethan raised his head and looked at Donald with anticipation. “I did nothing wrong? You’re right, I’m innocent…”
“Screw you!” Enraged, Timothy dashed over to Ethan and slapped him across the face. “Don’t you even know what you’ve done wrong?”
Ethan was on the verge of crying. His brain did not seem to be working. He looked at Donald, then at Timothy. “I was wrong!” he repeated.
