Chapter 147 Tony chuckled .
Of course , Mr.
Blackwood .
Even just having you here is worth every penny .
Even though he said that , his heart ached at the cost .
These martial arts masters had extraordinary skills but were also arrogant and greedy .noveldrama
Each job they took was like an excuse to extort the clients , draining them dry with every outrageous demand .
Nonetheless , Tonys thoughts turned cold as he remembered the rumors circulating in Jayrodales underworld that he , the East Side crime lord , was a useless old man , and Juan was equally worthless .
Both father and son had been humiliated by some nobody , tarnishing the reputation of East Sides ruler .
The shame was simply unbearable , and Tony believed the only way to salvage his reputation was to eliminate Andrew .
By doing so , he would restore his image as the unshakable ruler of the East Side .
Just then , Christina was brought in .
Her face turned pale at the sight of the hundred plus thugs and the martial art masters seated at the front .
Ms.
Stevens is truly a rare beauty , Tony said with a twisted grin , his gaze lingering on her .
Even at my age , I cant help but feel tempted .
Mr.
Madden Senior , Stevens Corporation has never had any conflict with East Side .
What do you want ? Christina asked , trying to keep her voice steady .
Tony snorted .
Thats not for you to decide .
Tell me , whats your relationship with Andrew ? Hes my ex , and weve gone our separate ways , Christina replied .
Good .
Now call him and tell him to come save you , Tony demanded coldly .
Mr.
Madden Senior , I absolutely cannot do that ! Christina exclaimed .
No ? So you wont cooperate ? Tonys expression turned vicious .
Panicking , Christina quickly replied , Ive already said it I have nothing to do with Andrew anymore .
Theres nothing between us !!! Tonys voice turned icy .
I dont care what your relationship with him is now .
Youre going to call him , bring him here , and then Ill consider letting you go .
Otherwise , Ill have my way with you before killing you .
The last trace of color drained from Christinas face .
Why are you so determined to lure Andrew here ? What is East Side planning ? Tony sneered .
With all these men and three martial arts masters here- isnt it obvious ? He wont be leaving here alive !
