The Man's Decree novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47 A Confrontation

“Huh?” William was momentarily stunned by Jared’s negative reply that came so swiftly, but in the next instant, he remarked smilingly, “That’s fine. While Josephine is a girl, she’s very skilled at running a company and doing business, so she can handle it alone!”

The man then left after saying that.

As Jared gazed at his back, a wry smile manifested on his face since he could understand William’s concern.

Josephine is his only daughter, so she’ll be inhering the family business in the future. If I were to truly end up with his daughter, someone would need to bear the heavy burden. Alas, I really don’t have much of an interest in business!

Soon, everyone had had their fill and bid each other farewell in preparation for leaving.

But at that precise moment, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open, and dozens of men rushed in with weapons in their hands. The man in the lead appeared savage and radiated a faint aura, so one could tell that he was a martial artist at a single glance.

At the sight of the people who abruptly barged in, shock swept over all the guests there. In a trice, Walter’s expression turned chilly. Beside him, Luca instantly whipped out a half-foot-long machete from his waistbelt and stood before Walter.

“Security! Where’s security?” William shouted at the top of his lungs when he saw the men charging in.

Alas, not a single security guard appeared.

“Save it, Mr. Sullivan. None of your security guards will be coming in,” the man in the lead stated coldly.

“Why did you suddenly barge in with so many men, Steven? Do you know that this banquet is hosted by Mr. Grange?” William chided loudly.

It turned out that the men were from the Crimson Dragon Gang, and the person in the lead was the gang leader, Steven Fisher.

Steven strode over to Walter and bowed low, murmuring, “I don’t mean to intrude, Mr. Grange. I’m just here to look for Tommy!”

By then, Tommy’s hands had long since clenched into fists. From the second Steven stepped in the door, he knew that the man was there for him.
