The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 302

Chapter 302 

“You said the previous price was off the table and asked me to quote again, didn’t you?” Arabella muttered, “You’re not thinking of backing out now, are you?” “You” Keith was at a loss for words. 

“As a gang leader, don’t you have any credibility?” 

Keith suddenly realized something, “You two know each other? You plan to team up to scam the cinnamomum tenuis from me at a low price? Mafia C and Mafia Flame are in cahoots, just to rip me off? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?” 

“So, you are thinking of backing out?” Romeo asked casually. 

“Fine, I back out!” 

Between the $300 million and credibility, he chose the former! 

One of his men tiptoed up to Keith’s ear and whispered, “Keith, there are Mafia C guys all over the place, we’d better be careful.” 

Keith knew well the power of Mafia C, so he swallowed his anger and said calmly, “Mr. McMillian, if you really want this cinnamomum tenuis, give me $300 million and you can take it. But this girl must stay! I can tell she doesn’t have the money, she’s just here to cause trouble!” 

He couldn’t let her off just like that! 

“I want both her and the item.” Romeo’s tone was firm, and he looked into Arabella’s eyes with a hint of tenderness. 

Keith was a bit taken aback, “You like her? What if I insist on keeping her today?” 

“Let’s see if you have the ability to do so.” 

As soon as Romeo had finished speaking, a member of Mafia Wolf rushed in, “Bad news, we’re surrounded by Mafia C!” 

Keith glared at Romeo, “Are you serious?” 

He was going to take on a gang for a woman? Was it really worth it? 

“You just said you like her?” Romeo laughed coldly, “You have good taste, but you’re not in her league! Carl.” 

“Yes!” Carl immediately pressed the button, triggering the outside forces into action! 

Everyone in the triangular zone had no idea why Mafia C had suddenly turned against Mafia Wolf and started shooting, seemingly determined to wipe them out. Hearing the gunshots and screams outside, Keith realized the danger was upon them. 

“She’s your woman? So, this is all a trap? You just wanted an excuse to wipe out Mafia Wolf? So, you set up a trap and waited for us to fall into it?” 

Upon hearing this, Carl scoffed, “You’re too full of yourself! Mr. McMillian doesn’t need an excuse to take action! You’re the one who overreached, hoping to get Mr. Bryant! Open your eyes and see how the empire you have built is slowly collapsing!” 

Hearing this, Keith stood frozen in shock. 

Carl continued, “Don’t worry, Mr. McMillian will spare your life, and the cinnamomum tenuis will be bought according to the rules you set, no unfair deals.” 

However, they agreed on $6 million, not a penny more! 

Upon hearing Carl’s words, Keith gave a bitter smile, his face pale, “So, according to you, you guys haven’t done anything unethical, rather you’ve been generous to me, sparing my life, and it’s all my fault?”
