The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 147

Hunter looked at Tristan with pleading eyes, hoping for some mercy. After all, Hunter was one of his close friends. Tristan couldn't just ignore him.

He turned to Nolan and said softly, "Mr. Greene, Hunter knows that he was in the wrong. Perhaps you could consider going a bit easier on him?"

Nolan glanced at Tristan and replied calmly, "Are you telling me what to do?"

At these words, Tristan felt that he lost all his dignity, but he didn't dare to show any anger. Even Lincoln treated this man with respect; how could he dare to be presumptuous?

"No, no, Mr. Greene, you've misunderstood. I wouldn't dare." As he said that, Tristan turned to Hunter and slapped him hard across the face. "Who said you could negotiate? Do as Mr. Greene instructed, right now!"

Hearing this, Hunter knew there was no way out and resigned to his fate. He sighed softly, clenched his teeth, then knelt down hard on the shattered glass on the floor.

Instantly, the sharp pain caused Hunter to cry out in agony. Blood began to pool under his knees, creating a scene that was enough to make onlookers wince in pain.

Everyone present couldn't help but feel a chill as they looked at Nolan. He was truly ruthless.

Nolan ignored their reactions and calmly sipped his drink before suddenly letting out a laugh. "If you don't make your move now, you might miss your only chance."

Everyone was puzzled by his words, and Tristan's men thought that he was speaking to them. However, the three men seated indifferently at the side knew the words were meant for them.

The leader of the three men chuckled and said, "The way these people are suddenly protecting Nolan shows that our plan to kill him was leaked. Heh! I must admit, he's got some nerve, taunting us like this."

"Fine," he continued, "since there's no way around it, we might as well get started."
