"Deal with these people?"
Saul sneered, then said lightly, "If they are sensible, that would be the best. If they are not, we'll have to get rid of them. Although I don't want to kill, once these people stay, they will beco a nace."
Yannick blinked as he looked at Saul, his expression appearing sowhat fearful.
Because he knew very well that if Saul could say such words, he would definitely act on them.
Yannick had known Saul for a short ti, but he had so understanding of Saul's bloody thods.
"After we get rid of these people, things will beco much simpler. The Four Provinces will be firmly under my control..."
Saul said expressionlessly.
"Yes, yes..."
Yannick nodded hastily and continued, "Mr. Saul, once this is done, my task will be complete. Please don't forget what you promised !"
"Don't worry; I won't withhold a single penny of the money I promised you. After all, you've done a great favor..."
Saul replied softly.
"That's good, that's good..."
Yannick smiled.
...
On the other side, Connor and Waverly sat in the private room, enjoying a lavish al. anwhile, after briefly understanding the situation at the banquet, Thomas also returned to the private room.
"What's the situation at the banquet now?" Connor asked quietly as he saw Thomas return.
"Mr. Connor, the people behind Yannick have shown up," Thomas hurriedly replied.
"Are they from the Goz family?" Connor asked as he put down his fork.
"No, they are from the Zook family in Yarlford," Thomas answered.
"The Zook family?" Connor was surprised by this revelation. "I didn't expect Yamino to be so cautious, knowing that I'm supposedly dead, and still bringing the Zook family to devour Porthampton..."
"Perhaps that's the frightening aspect of Yamino. He's always extrely cautious and never exposes his weaknesses," Thomas said calmly.
"What's the Zook family's purpose in coming here?" Connor inquired further.
"This ti, the Zook family not only plans to replace you in the Four Provinces but also intends to let Yannick control the Empire World Corporation. Then, they will use the influence of Empire World Corporation to swallow up all the major families and companies in the Four Provinces. The Zook family's goal is to control the Four Provinces single-handedly," Thomas explained.
"The Zook family's ambitions are surprisingly grand. It's beyond my expectations," Connor sighed softly.
"Yes, they don't care about the feelings of those families at all. They are using Empire World Corporation to exert pressure. After all, if these families leave the Empire World Corporation's support, they'll have no way out. Moreover, they spread the news of your supposed death, making them believe there's no hope left. So, several major families in Porthampton have already agreed to be absorbed," Thomas continued.
"The Zook family's move is indeed ruthless. They plan to dismantle my foundations in the Four Provinces. Even if I survive, I won't have the qualifications to compete with the Goz family," Connor said softly.
"Mr. Connor, what should we do now? Should we continue to wait?" Thomas hesitated for a mont and then asked quietly.
"No rush. I haven't finished my al yet. After I finish eating, I'll deal with these people..." Connor replied calmly.
Thomas was very anxious, but seeing Connor's deanor, he didn't dare to say more. He could only sit beside Connor and watch him eat.
"Bang!"
At that mont, the door of the private room was suddenly kicked open from the outside. It was Morgan, the man Connor's group had encountered at the hotel entrance. He barged in with a handgun in hand and stared at Waverly, shouting, "It was you, the woman who slapped , right?"
Connor, who had been silent throughout, gave Morgan a helpless look and then whispered to Waverly, "You caused this trouble; you deal with it."
"Alright..."
Waverly, as if reluctantly, put down her fork, stepped forward, and confronted him, saying disdainfully, "What do you want? Planning to shoot ?"
"You better apologize to now, or I'll shoot you!" He glared at her and shouted.
"Kill ?"
She coldly chuckled at his words and then said casually, "Do you think you're capable of that?"
"You...!"
He was about to say sothing when she reached out and grabbed his wrist, then exerted force.
"Ah..."
He let out a painful scream, his face contorted in agony.
"Just you want to kill ?" she said with disdain, then lifted her leg and kicked him in the stomach.
He was sent flying out of the private room by her kick.
He struggled to get up after landing on the ground, then glared at Waverly and shouted, "You bitch, just wait; I won't let you off the hook today..."
After being beaten by Waverly twice in a row, he was trembling with anger. He then ran towards the banquet hall.
...
Once inside the banquet hall, Morgan searched everywhere for Yannick but couldn't find him. So, he burst into the private room.
"Mr. Yannick, I was beaten up by a woman brought by Thomas..." Morgan shouted as he entered the room.
"Beaten up by a woman?"
Upon hearing this, Yannick was montarily stunned, his brows furrowing. He asked, "Did Thomas co to the banquet too?"
"Thomas didn't attend the banquet; he brought people to have a al here. I had a conflict with him, and he let the woman with him beat up. That woman is incredibly skilled; my bodyguards couldn't match her at all..." Morgan hastily explained.
"Is Thomas deliberately causing trouble?" Yannick's expression turned angry, then he turned to Saul and said, "Mr. Saul, please excuse for a mont..."
"In just an hour, your scheduled ti will be up soon. There's no need to rush. Let my bodyguards check out the situation first," Saul reached out to stop Yannick.
"Alright..."
Yannick nodded gently.
