Chapter 318

Owen and Carlisle had been beaten badly by Mike’s people last time.

It w

was time to settle the score.

Upon hearing that Carlisle was going to help him get revenge, Owen was so excited that he rushed downstairs.

On the way, he called Heath.

Heath frowned slightly.

“Did you hear it from Carl himself?”

“Yeah!”

“Alright, go over there. Keep an eye on Carl and make sure he doesn’t get hurt.”

Heath hung up the phone and glanced at Wade, who was on the couch watching a ‘90s drama with

interest.

“Wade, gather the crew. We’re heading out!”

“Where to?”

“Luke’s old place.”

“Damn, that’s intense!”

Wade jumped up from the couch.

After lan died, Luke took over all his business. Luke often indulged in wine and women, neglecting the operation of his entertainment venues, which led to many of lan’s former associates quietly leaving.

Ten minutes later, five vans and 12 black Santana split into two groups and hurried toward Luke’s old

haunt

Heath felt a wave of emotion in his heart as he sat in the car and watched the scenery fly by outside.

It had only been a week since he took over as boss, but so much had happened in that time.

Just a week ago, he would have been intimidated by Mike. Now, Mike meant nothing to him.

Wade excitedly rubbed his hands together.

“Once we take care of Luke, our influence will be comparable to Albert’s!”

Heath smiled faintly.

“Don’t celebrate too soon. Going after Luke will surely provoke Albert. Let’s get through this first.”

Wade furrowed his brows

“Shouldn’t we wait a little longer then?”

Heath shook his head.

“Let’s deal with our boss‘ trouble first.”

At A1 Seafood Restaurant, Mike had already poured several glasses of wine for the school belle, Melanie

Yost.

She was flushed and dazed. Swaying in her chair, Melanie was on the verge of collapsing. But fortunately, a few female classmates were there to support her.

Mike lit a cigarette, pulled out two thousand dollars in cash from his pocket, and tossed it before the two

female classmates.

“Your business here is done. You can leave now.”

One of the female classmates eyed the crisp hundred–dollar bills with envy.

The other furrowed her brows lightly.

“Are you saying we should leave Melanie here?”

“Of course,” Mike said with a smirk.

He had been pursuing Melanie for a long time, hoping to win her over with his sincerity. But she was playing hard to get, so he had arranged this meeting to get her drunk and finally have her all to himself.

*No way. I have to take Melanie with us!” the female classmate said while eyeing the cash on the table.

Mike’s lips curled into a sly smile.

*Not satisfied with the amount, are you?”

The female classmate immediately averted her gaze and said earnestly, “Melanie and I have been best friends for three years. There’s no way I’d betray her for money.”

Mike tossed another two thousand dollars without waiting for her response. Then, he pulled out another two thousand and placed it on the table.

The other female classmate quickly pocketed the money and stood up.

“I’m heading back now…”

The remaining classmate, Katie, was stunned. She couldn’t believe her classmate could do this

Mike tossed another two thousand dollars over.

“That’s all the money I have. You should know that regardless if you accept the money, you won’t be able to take Melanie with you today.”

“I… I want ten thousand!”

Katie finally spoke up.

She was clearly unsatisfied with the amount.

Mike narrowed his eyes.

“Katie, you’re being too greedy. It will eventually ruin you.”

Katie shrugged, unbothered.

“Give me ten thousand dollars. If something happens later, I’ll stand by your side and testify that Melanie. seduced you.
