Just a stone's throw away, after hanging up the phone, Gilbert pointed his finger at Jacob menacingly. "Just you wait! I'll make sure to give you a taste of my power!"

Richard was wiping the corner of his eyes. There was anxiety written all over his face. "Chairman, I think it's best for you guys to move along now. If you don't leave at once, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to make it!"

"If we leave you behind, what's going to happen to you?" There was visible concern in Franklin's eyes.

"I've been with them for a few years now. I don't think they'll do anything too serious to me. At most, I'll be given a good round of beating, but that's about it." Richard smiled bitterly.

Franklin shook his head. "That won't do! The reason why I'm here today is to help you with your situation, not to worsen it. My son and I will never allow such things! Jacob, do you agree?"

Jacob was getting spurred up. He nodded at his father's remark. "That's right! Uncle Richard, we couldn't do anything before because we weren't aware of this, but now that they've crossed path with us, I'll have to wait and see what kind of backup they're bringing."

"Rich, you just have to worry about yourself. We'll deal with the rest." Franklin patted his shoulder. "The young gun is raring to go. We shall let him deal with today's matter. If anything happens, he'll cover for it." He was confident with his words.

These guys are just some random street bullies. Based on the potential that I've witnessed in my son for the past few days, he'll most likely be done with them in a jiffy. Perhaps some of his strong, capable men are already waiting among the crowd.

"Oh no… Chairman, I don't want to put you guys in harm's way!" Richard stomped his foot in frustration.

"It's too late now." Franklin looked toward the crowd.


"Big bro, we're here! Tell us, which one of them is standing in your way. Me and the guys will remove his legs at once!"

A few angry-looking teens were shouting about, pushing the crowd aside as they made their entrance.

"Hmph! Since words couldn't reach you, I'll do it with force instead!" Lilly shot Richard a glare. "If you could just let go of your store earlier, you would spare yourself from the needless beating that's about to come."

Jacob glimpsed at her with a face full of disdain.

He sent two of the men flying with a swing of his hand and toppled the remaining three with a simple kick. Then, with his back hand, Jacob landed a tight slap on Gilbert's face.

Pftt! Pfft!

The shape of his mouth was distorted. Two of his teeth fell out as a result of the impact.

Jacob reached down, grabbed a steel pipe, and bent it like it was made out of rubber. After his display of strength, he dropped it back down onto the floor, producing a loud 'clank'. He was looking down at Gilbert mockingly. "Do you have anyone else coming? I'll be here waiting for them."
