NovelAppChapter 255 The Macintosh Family Has Supports "Dad? Are you scared? Why are you scared of them?" Hubert, whose intellect had been dulled by the drug, was now consumed by pure malice.
"Kill them all! No one dares to defy us in Havenlight County! Anyone who crossesshall die! Even the so- called Quinnell family of Kingbourne!" "Son, what are you blabbering about!" Derek was bewildered by Hubert's words.
Swiftly covering Hubert's m*uth, Derek looked at Elliot, whose expression was cold, and said remorsefully, "Please forgive us, Mr.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQuinnell, for not recognizing you sooner." Then, he crawled over, grabbed Ryan's leg, and pleaded, "Mr. Lloyd, you've visited our village several times. You knowand my son are good people. How could we possibly have harmed Mr. Quinnell?” Ryan kicked him away in disgust. "You and your son snatch others wives and daughters, shelter traffickers, and you call yourselves good people?" Needless to say, the Quinnell family would not let this go easily. Was this skind of sick joke? Who on earth would settle matters amicably with this family of bullies? Even a merciful saint could not tolerate this! Derek was cunning. Realizing that pleading didn't work, the 60-year- old man showed his badge and knelt, tears streaming down his face as he looked at Garfield.
"Back then, when the roads were difficult to traverse, my fellow villagers and I stayed behind, and that's how this village cto be.
"Mr. Wade, your superiors have specifically reminded you to stand for us in times of need. Even if someone rich and powerful comes, you still have to take care of us, Mr. Wade!" Garfield couldn't help but feel disgusted upon hearing his words. Wynter watched with a slight raise of her eyebrow.
She had sensed something fishy about Paradise Village. It turned out that the Macintosh family had played a role in the village's development, resulting in them receiving special treatment from the authorities.
"You can't let us down, Mr. Wade! Think of all the hard work and effort we pioneers have put into building a hin these rural mountains!" Derek wept harder as he spoke.
The elderly villagers gathered around, exchanged glances, and the slowly approached Garfield.
"That's right, Mr. Wade. We were once the pioneers that everyone was proud of." "What's Chief Macintosh done wrong? Just because he offended srich guy from Kingbourne?" "Mr. Wade! Have you no heart at all? "And who does that so-called manager think he is, coming to our village to show off his power?" "We have no women in our village, so what's wrong with buying a bride?" "If that missy doesn't want to marry the Macintoshes, so be it! Didn't the Macintoshes apologize to her? Is it necessary to resort to such extrmeasures?" Garfield found it quite difficult to communicate with these naive villagers sometimes. Nevertheless Derek was right. They did enjoy special treatment due to their efforts in developing this village.
Moreover, the Macintosh not only had the support of the villagers but they were also backed by the Scott family of Kingbourne. Hence, Garfield had to take his next steps cautiously. Then again, what could he possibly do under such circumstances?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen he tried to argue based on legal principles, the villagers responded emotionally appealing to personal connections instead of logic. Not to mention the heavy pressure from his superiors. "Mr. Quinnell, do you mind if we table this matter for now?" Garfield had no choice but to seek a compromise with Elliot.
Already suffering from a high fever, Elliot had just eased his tension upon seeing Ryan, but now his demeanor turned cold again.
"What is there to hold for a scumbag like this?" he retorted.
But before Garfield could respond, the villagers began to shout.
"Mr. Wade, don't waste your twith him! Let's see what this rich guy from Kingbourne can do to us old bones here!" "When we were clearing the land, he probably hadn't even been born Chungen 2000 The Marselli yet!" "Anyone who wants to lay a finger on Derek has to go through us first!
Hearing their words, Ryan was so furious that he started panting "m Foolishxioters! You're all a bunch of lawless troublemakers who can't tell right from wrong!"
Wynter, on the other hand, remained calm. She quickly estimated them number of people and whispered to Elliot, "What's your rank?” "First-class. But I cannot use force against civilians," Elliot said in a hoarse voice, "At this rate, we'll be in danger."
