Wilbled upon hearing that and asked, âWho the hell are you? Do I need to know you?â
His words instantly caused an uproar among the crowd.
The Lance brothers were well known. Xavier Lance had been in the mafia since he was a kid, and he was famous for being ruthless.
He had encountered an expert who taught him how to fight when he was a teenager, and he became exceptionally skilled in combat. He ruled over Toneville from then on, and no one dared to cross him.
The older brother, Barry Lance, was clever and used his younger brotherâs reputation on the streets as a steppingstone to enter the business world. He went through it all, and he eventually built the Lance financial empire.
The Lance brothers had been running Toneville ever since Saul Mendes announced his retirement and lived in seclusion.
Any businessmen in Toneville had to bow down to the brothers, no matter how successful they were.
They could not believe this young man standing in front of them disrespected the Lance brothers while in Toneville. He was getting into a load of trouble.
They all looked at Wilbur and shook their heads. They knew he was doomed..
Suddenly, Xavier sneered coldly and said, âYou dare to talk back, huh? Youâll soon find out who the Lance brothers are. Brother, come on out.â
Barry slowly emerged from behind the folding screen when Xavier shouted.
Sammy followed from behind, and she was clearly restrained by two men.
âNow do you know who my brother is?â asked Xavier coldly.
Wilbur laughed in realization. He said, âOh, itâs him. The guy who picks on women. I thought he was some kind of hero.â
The joke instantly made Barry furious. He glared at Wilbur and said, âYour death is near but youâre still so flippant. Letâs see how long you can keep that attitude
âAre you canceling the concert?â Wilbur did not reply to Barry, asking Sammy instead.
Sammy had tears in her eyes, appearing extremely aggrieved.
It was at that moment that she knew how scary Toneville was because of the tyrants.
They did whatever they pleased because they were above the rules.
She had to watch Barry beat her agent and two assistants to the ground until they were unconscious,
She was forced to be there. Barry also threatened her, saying that he wanted her to watch him handle Wilbur, after which he would play with her like a toy. She would be buried alive if he was not satisfied with her service
She was terrified, so she could only obey and follow him.
She felt more resentful toward Wilbur at the same time. If it werenât for him, I wouldnât have ended up
here.â
Sammy did not answer him. Barry burst out laughing and said, âDid you really think I invited her here for a concert?
just wanted to play with her. I might have been more civilized before you stepped in, but I wonât
hold now hit my men for this woman. Iâll deal with you tonight, then Iâll take of her slowly.â
The brothers were arrogant and unreasonable. There were hundreds of people in the crowd, but no one dared to speak up.
Wilbur chuckled and glanced at them. He said slowly. âIn that case, have you made plans for the money I just transferred?â
âConsider that as our compensation,â laughed Xavier.
Wilbur finally understood why there were two bidders who would not quit. The Lance brothers set him up.
âTed
Wilbur looked at Ted and asked, âTed Dominic, I assume youâre in on this, too?â
Ted stood up and walked towards Barry. He stood next to Barry and said in an arrogant tone, âIâm sorry, but you messed with Mister Lance. Donât blame me for this.â
âNice one.â Wilbur laughed at his reply, and he started to clap.
The crowd thought Wilbur was crazy. How could he laugh at a time like this?
