“Just wait a bit more, okay? I’m almost done here. Once I’m done, I’ll go pick you up.”

“Okay!” Hearing him say that, Olivia instantly got excited on the other end. “Drive slowly and be careful, then.”

“Uh-huh.” Thomas hung up the phone. After parking his car in a deserted place, he dragged George out of the trunk and threw him onto the ground.

George landed right on his shoulder, which the man had crushed. “Ouch!” With a cry of pain, he came around, grimacing.

“You’re George Horner?” asked Thomas icily. He had listened to the conversation between this man and Veronica earlier.

“You f*cking little punk! How dare you lay a hand on me, knowing that I’m George Horner? Who the f*ck are you?! Do you have a death wish?” swore George between clenched teeth. He would never have imagined that, with his current status, there would still be someone daring enough to treat him like this!

Thomas calmly took a drag of his cigarette. “You don’t need to know who I am at the moment, nor do you need to worry whether or not I have a death wish. All you need to do is tell me why you were coming after Veronica! Of course, you can choose not to tell me, but that comes with consequences. I will break every bone in your body one by one until you talk!”

George retorted, “What are you bragging about? Let me tell you this: I’m from the Tucker Family! You know the Tuckers?

In his opinion, once he mentioned the Tucker Family of Irieson, Thomas would be scared into not daring to lay a finger on him anymore.

Unfortunately, he was mistaken. “The Tuckers, huh?” Thomas let out a snort of disdain. “There are so many of these nonsense two-bit families around nowadays!”

for powerful families in Droycore, Irieson had a multitude of wealthy and powerful families. However, the most powerful ones among them would be the former Six Greatest Families, which had commanded huge prestige for a time before being wiped out by him. Compared to them, the Tucker Family really was small fry to him. “Never mind if you’re from the Tucker Family. Even if you’re connected to God himself, you’re gonna have to pay the price!” Then, he grabbed George’s index finger
