Chapter 50: Inviting Mr. Stone to Tea
Inside a district at the center of Sky City!
On the top floor!
The lights were brightly lit.
The glass chandelier inside the building shone, and the furniture looked luxurious and elegant. Jayden Hayes was extremely excited.
He quickly walked into Steve’s study. “Let’s go!”
“What’s wrong?”
Steve smiled.
He was still wearing the denim outfit from the previous day, looking a little casual.
“You made the right bet!” Jayden’s face was filled with joy. “Mrs. Simone and the people I planted under Chris sent me a message. That ordinary person called Cole Stone is indeed Cara Williams’s fiancé. He has been caught.
“How did you expect this? You’re too amazing.”
Jayden’s eyes were filled with disbelief.
“I don’t trust my brother’s ability, but I trust his luck,” Steve replied.
Jayden was full of praise. “Our family has hope. Perhaps, under your leadership, we can still dominate Sky City.”
“Uncle, you’re joking.”
Steve shook his head.
Jayden then hurriedly picked up the suit on the table. “Let’s hurry up and leave. It will be over if we’re late.”
“Why are we going over?” Steve smiled with interest.
Seeing that Steve did not even have the intention to move, Jayden was stunned. “We have to hurry up and show up there. At that time, Mrs. Simone will reveal that we were the ones who arranged everything. Wouldn’t that make us famous in the family and elevate our status?”
“You already said that Mrs. Simone will reveal it. Then why should we go over?”
Steve smiled, his eyes revealing a hint of confidence. “Besides, we can’t be in a hurry. The more critical the moment, the more we can’t rush. We shouldn’t be too hasty when collecting our rewards.
“Cara Williams is not an easy person to deal with. If we rush out now, the risk will be greater than the reward. Besides, Chris has violated some rules. It’s different from us.
“Don’t worry, Uncle! Stay at ease. It’s our credit. None of it can escape.”
Silence!
Jayden hesitated for a moment and did not move.
***
The night was silent.
They were in a factory!
This abandoned factory was the current year’s demolition project and was about to be rebuilt. Usually, no one would step foot in this place.
Yet, at this moment, it was filled with people.
A hundred people were distributed throughout the factory.
Cole was tightly tied up and kneeling on the ground.
Two burly men stood on both of his sides with knives in their hands. One of them even placed his knife on Cole’s neck.
Not far away from them, a black crossbow arrow was aimed at Cole’s head.
Charles Yeager and Chris Hayes were sitting on chairs.
The crippled Zen Slade had already returned and was standing behind Charles with Jane.
As for Simone, she stood behind Chris.
As a guest, she had to give a member of the Hayes family some face in public.
“Let him go.”
Opposite Charles and the rest was the gloomy Hugh.
More than twenty people stood behind him.
This was the first batch of reinforcements that had arrived in a hurry.
“Get Cara to talk to me.”
Charles stood up with a smile.
He naturally took the lead.
This embarrassed Chris and made Simone despise him.
“How can you meet the head of the Williams just because you want to?” Hugh shouted.
“Then there’s nothing to talk about?” Charles shrugged.
Hugh’s expression darkened. “What do you want?”
“I already said that you have to ask Cara Williams to talk to me.” Charles sneered. “Talk to you? Can you make the decision?”
“Okay.”
Hugh sneered and made a call.
Seeing this, Charles sat back down with a smile and waited patiently.
At this moment, Cole looked at Hugh, who was on the phone, and his eyes flashed with determination.
The call went through.
It was on speaker.
“Miss Williams…”
Charles Yeager said with a smile.
“Get someone qualified to talk to me.”
Cara’s faint voice rang out.
Silence!
The entire factory turned silent.
Domineering!
Boundless dominance!
Everyone on Charles’s side had an ugly expression.
Just what confidence did she have?
Even though her people were kidnapped, she could continue to be so domineering!
“Miss Williams, am I not qualified?” Charles said with a dark expression.
“You?”
Cara asked, “Who are you?”
Charles’s expression immediately stiffened.
Chris revealed a gloating expression.
Charles’s stiff expression turned into a cold smile. “It seems like Miss Williams doesn’t plan on acknowledging me. Alright, I’ll let you hear a beautiful voice.
“Jane, go.”
Charles Yeager said with a smile.
Jane immediately looked excited. She walked to Cole and revealed a look of hatred and joy. “Cole, do you remember? I said that I would return the slap you gave me.
“Now, it’s time for me to return it to you!”
She remembered the humiliation of being chased out that night.
Now that the tables had turned, the person who would get slapped had become Cole.
Bam!
Jane slapped Cole hard on the face.
Cole’s face immediately turned red.
Jane looked excited. That felt so good.
However, what made her unhappy was that Cole did not make a sound; he only sneered.
Seeing that, Jane widened her eyes. “You still dare to laugh at me?”
Bam!
She slapped him again!
The slap mark was bright red!
“Stop!”
After Jane slapped him twice, Charles immediately stopped her with a smile. “Miss Williams, can you tell who I am now?”
Cara remained silent.
Hugh’s eyes widened and turned blood red. His aura soared.
The man beside Cole aimed the blade at his heart.
Hugh’s expression became aggrieved.
Just then…
“Do you know your crimes for breaking the rules?”
Cara ignored Charles’s words and calmly said.
“Rules?”
Charles was stunned for a moment, then his eyes darkened. He remembered them.
The six families of Sky City had a private rule. Whether it was in the business world or a competition, the winner would be decided by a head-on battle.
If they crazily plotted against each other, kidnapped, and poisoned each other…
If I kidnap you today and you kidnap me tomorrow, wouldn’t the entire world be in chaos?
However, no one usually paid attention to this rule.
Thinking about it now, Charles realized that he had miscalculated.
However, the arrow was on the bow; it had to be released.
Chris sneered.
Even before the kidnapping, he naturally knew this rule. However, in his current situation, he had no choice but to take the risk!
If he could take out a big cake from Cara’s hands this time, who cared about the rules?
“We’re not kidnapping Mr. Stone.”
Charles said, “We have invited Mr. Stone over for tea and a chat, right?”
“Yeah.”
Chris agreed with him.
“Serve Mr. Stone tea.” Charles waved his hand.
Sizzle!
Jane immediately splashed the water on Cole’s face. “It’s delicious!”
The liquid made the slap on Cole’s face hurt even more.
Hugh gritted his teeth.
Charles smiled and said, “That’s fine, right?”
“Sure!”
Cara nodded. “Then since you invited Cole to tea, I’ll also invite the children of your two families to tea.”
“What?”
Charles’s expression drastically changed.
