One Night Surprise

Chapter 397 If They Both Die Because of This

Alexander and Oliver’s plan was to start with the black market. They would look for the street dealers that had been selling K Powder recently and make a few transactions. Then, they would offer to buy a large amount of drugs. The street dealers were basically resellers, so they certainly wouldn’t have such a large amount of drugs at hand. As such, they would introduce them to their drug dealer and get a commission.

Gale was still worried, though. “What makes you so certain that the one selling drugs to these street dealers has to be Dragon’s underling?”

“There’s no room for two kings in one castle,” Oliver explained. “The drug dealing market in Melrose City was previously monopolized by Dragon’s drug-trafficking ring, so the other drug dealers wouldn’t dare to come. Moreover, after such a big case had happened, those from anywhere else would want to stay away from here as much as possible right now. The only ones left are those who aren’t afraid of death, and they could only be Dragon’s men.”

However, Gale argued, “It still seems too risky to me.”

He still wanted to say something, but Cameron gave him a dirty look and snapped, “Why don’t you just shut up instead of being so overcautious? If Alexander hadn’t blown up at Courtney, she wouldn’t have traveled alone. If Oliver hadn’t messed with the drug-trafficking ring, she wouldn’t have been dragged into this either. No matter how you put it, it’s because of you two—the Duncans—that Courtney’s now in such big trouble! So what if it’s risky? It won’t seem enough to me even if they both die because of this!” My best friend Courtney is the kindest and strongest woman in the world, yet she has all the youthful days of her life ruined by the Duncans. And now, her life is in danger, her fate unknown. What else should we be thinking about other than how to save her?

After being told off to his face by Cameron like that, Gale dared not say anything else; he merely looked at Alexander and Oliver with a look of embarrassment.

“I know I’ve gotten Courtney into trouble,” Oliver admitted. “I promise I’ll be in charge of this till the end of it, and I’ll find a way to bring Courtney back safely.”

“How could you promise to bring her back when it’s not known whether she’s still alive?” Cameron glowered at Alexander with a scowl. “Are you bringing her back to let you Duncans humiliate her again?”

The atmosphere in the room instantly became tense, as if the air had frozen. After a long time, Alexander’s dull voice sounded in the room, saying, “As long as Courtney comes back safely this time, I’ll agree to whatever request she makes. I’m fine if she wants Jordan to go back to America with her or if she doesn’t want to see me again for the rest of her life.”
