It was blatant daylight robbery. The sum he requested was even higher than the fees required earlier.
John knew Donald was definitely an influential man, so he said to Terry, “Terry, don't trouble Mr. Campbell. Otherwise, we'll be in deep trouble ourselves. Let Mr. Campbell go. Mr. Campbell is a magnanimous man, so I think he'll have mercy on us.”
Terry and Theron stared at John as if the man had lost his mind.
“What's wrong with you? Are you an idiot? We're the ones with the advantage now. Why would we need him to show us mercy?” Terry remarked.
He then glanced at Jennifer, who was hiding behind Donald. Wearing a lecherous smile, he added, “Now, he should be the one begging me for mercy. The lady behind him is quite pretty. I can give you a twenty percent discount if she's willing to spend a night with me. That way, you'll only need to pay me one million and six hundred thousand.”
His presumptuous demand caused Donald to heave a sigh. “Why are there so many people with a death wish in this world?”
“Brat, what did you say?”
Donald patted Jennifer's head and instructed her gently, “Bring your parents to the back of the crates and hide there. I'll deal with the situation here.”
“Darling, are you able to fight off so many people on your own?” she asked.
“That's why I asked you to hide first. Call the police while I stall them. By the time I can no longer ward them off, the police should be here to deal with them.”
Jennifer was not a melodramatic woman, and she knew how good of a fighter her husband was.
Once the Wilsons had taken cover behind the crates, Donald flexed his neck and beckoned Terry over with his finger. “Come on.”
“D*mn it! You sure have a death wish, you brat!”
Seeing how Donald was belittling him, Terry waved at his lackeys and instructed them to attack the young man all at once.
