Love Slave to the Ma Chapter 91: His Way

"Of course. Why not?" Hayden said as if it was supposed to be obvious that I should join the eting.

"I can wait for you here. You don’t have to mind ," I said, trying to excuse myself.

"Co," Hayden said firmly.

"Ok…" I muttered.

A few minutes later, I found myself seated next to Hayden in a very large eting room. The eting table was long and there were around 20 people there besides Hayden and . Everyone looked so senior, and the atmosphere was tense and serious. I glanced over at Hayden’s emotionless face and wondered for the hundredth ti why he dragged

into this.

"Now that everyone is here. We’ll start with the agenda at hand. As everyone has been inford prior to the eting there has been many cases of the Silva gang crossing into our territory to do business.

So far, we’ve been able to stop these trades and protect our territory; however, the Silva gang has made it clear through their repeated offenses that they intend to take over so of our territories," a man spoke loudly so that everyone in the room could hear.

I glanced over at Hayden and saw that his face was completely emotionless. The other gang mbers, on the other hand, all seed to have sothing that they wanted to say.

"We should just crush them in a shootout!"

"We better show them what happens when they ss with the Torex. My n can handle it!"

"Our territories are part of our family. I will not stand for any disorder,"

"Shoot them and send their dead bodies back to their boss!"

"Anything that harms our profits is not good…"

"Business relationships take a long ti to build; we cannot let them just take over like this,"

"If they don’t respect our territory, I don’t see why we have to respect theirs any longer!"

The eting was turning fast into a riot with n screaming out their thoughts without order. Everyone was just screaming, and many n had jumped up from their seat. It was just a big and loud ss. Everyone had their eyes on Hayden as they waited impatiently for him to react to their words. It was clear that everyone wanted to fight back sohow against the competing gang.

Whether they were concerned more about the business, the money or their pride, everyone had arrived at the sa solution which was to fight back. Very few n were calm while the majority were super hot blooded and seed like they couldn’t wait to take their guns out.

Honestly, it was a terrifying sight to behold.

Hayden had been watching this entire scene unfolding in silence. It didn’t seem like the n’s loud screaming had any impact on him at all. If anything, he just looked dead bored and tired of the whole thing.

Hayden lifted his right hand a little and the whole room settled down at once. Silence returned to the room and the n that had stood up sat back down on their seats once more.

"We, the Torex gang, will not fight back…" Hayden stated calmly yet very firmly.

Just when his words had just left his mouth, the chaos in the room ca back to full life.

"Hayden…you can’t expect us to just sit here and do nothing!"

"If you’re worried about too much bloodshed, then just allow my n to handle it. Just my n are more than enough for this!"

The n started shouting. All their comnts and demands were all along the sa lines. I could sense their dissatisfaction at Hayden’s decision and their frustration. Apparently, peace wasn’t what they were looking for.

A man that looked like he was in his fifties slowly stood up from his seat and turned to face Hayden. The room went silent as they watched him. I could tell that he held a very senior position in the gang and had the respect of many. I glanced over at Hayden and saw that he was watching the man intently as well.

"If your brother was still alive; he would never let them get away with behaving like this against us," the man said pointedly.

"How dare you say that in front of the young boss? Apologize to Hayden at once!" another man stood up and shouted loudly in Hayden’s defense.

There were a few supporting murmurs from other n in the room. That’s right, Hayden’s older brother died, and we went to visit his grave. I wondered what happened, but I didn’t dare to ask. Co to think of it, I think I’ve heard words similar to these once or twice before…

’If only his brother was still alive…’

I think soone said sothing along those line when we were waiting for Hayden in the church. Obviously, I didn’t pay those word any mind back then.

With a soft sigh, Hayden slowly stood up from his seat. Despite the tense situation, Hayden stood up straight

"Unfortunately for all of us, my brother is dead. Unfortunately for all of you, you’re stuck with

instead. Unfortunately for , I’m stuck here instead of my brother. We’re just an unfortunate bunch so shut the fuck up and do as I say!" Hayden said before he started yelling at the group of older n.

After Hayden was done the room was completely silent and everyone looked nervously at each other. I prayed that violence would not break out and then I just flatly wished that I wasn’t here. Hayden sat back down and rested his chin on his hands as he stared at his n.

"The annual gala is next week, as you all should already know. I will be attending, and I will discuss this with the representative from Silva. Until then, I expect everyone to refrain from any use of violence.

As per the rules, unless my orders are directly overruled by the boss, my order stands and anyone who violates my order will receive fair punishnt," Hayden said, emotionlessly as if he was reading from a book.

Without waiting to see the reaction of his n, Hayden took my hand in his before he stood up from his seat, pulling

up with him. Then he was leading

out of the eting room.
