Chapter 302
Sonia was fuming. She bellowed, “Peter Carmine, stop being a bully! Sumeria is not your backyard that allows you to do whatever you like.”
“Hahaha…”
As a wealthy second generation from the capital, Peter assumed a higher status than others, and he did not care about the dignitaries in Sumeria, not even the Timberlands who were one of the big three families.
“I don’t want to waste my time with you. I’ll be waiting for you at the Stardust Complex. If you have what it takes, then bring it on.”
A hint of viciousness flashed on his face as he scoffed at Sonia.
Then, he wanted to leave the cafe.
Andrius, who had been quiet the entire conversation, finally spoke, “I don’t want you to waste my time either. Give us back the Stardust Complex and we shall still be on negotiation terms. I can simply turn a blind eye to this. But, if you insist, then not only you but your whole family will suffer the consequences and pay a hefty price.”
His words made Peter laugh out loud. Even the bodyguards behind Peter cackled together. After the laughter, Peter looked at Andrius with contempt. “Who the hell are you supposed to be? Where did you come from? Why are you being a busybody, poking your nose into our matters?”
“I’m Andrius Moonshade.”
“I’ve never heard of the name.” Peter scoffed and continued, “Look at you. If you have the time, go sleep under the bridge or whatever. Don’t cause any trouble here.”
Then, Peter brought his bodyguards out of the cafe.
Sonia watched them leave. Confused, she asked, “Mr. Moonshade, why didn’t
you stop
them?”
“There’s no rush,” Andrius said meaningfully. “The families in the capital are wealthy, a lot wealthier than the companies here in Sumeria. Let them have it for now, and I will make them spit out everything soon, together with the interest he owes.”
Sonia was hit with a sudden epiphany. She finally knew why Andrius did not remove the Millers and the Crestfalls of the capital right away.
He was aiming for the long shot!
Andrius then called Noir. “Noir, tell the Carmines‘ master that the Wolf King wants to see him at the Royal Gardens. Tell him to bring his men there immediately.”
“Alright, Andy!”
The master of the Carmines, Dexter, was also in Sumeria doing an on–site inspection. At that moment, he was in the office doing some paperwork.
“The W–Wolf King wants to see me?” Dexter received the call from Noir and was astonished. He stammered, “The R–Royal Gardens? A–alright! I’ll be right there!”
When he hung up the phone, his excitement shot him up to cloud nine,
The Wolf King wanted to see him?
Even the masters of other wealthy families in Kiyoto deemed meeting the Wolf King a huge honor, let alone him, the master of a tiny family in the capital.
The meeting should be written in his family’s history books as it would bring honor to the generations to come. He could foresee his family rising in power and the ranks and soon reaching the top of the entire East River State.
Then, Peter brought his men back to the office.
“Sonia Timberland called me out again, and she had a man named Andrius Moonshade with her. They wanted me to give them the Stardust Complex back…”
“Just ignore them,” Dexter interrupted his son. He continued, “Get changed. Make it proper because we are going to meet the Wolf King.”
“The W–Wolf King?” Peter’s eyes widened in surprise, so wide that his eyeballs almost fell out. “Hold on, Father! I’ll go get changed!”
Meeting the Wolf King was a huge honor! He could use this meeting to reign over the entire East River State in the future.
A while later, Dexter and Peter, together with two followers, arrived at the Royal Gardens. They dared not dress extravagantly to meet the Wolf King.
The Royal Gardens‘ gates were tightly locked.
Dexter and company lined up neatly, waiting outside the gate patiently with their hands crossed.
A while later, an electric bike appeared before them.
