Chapter 276
"Oh, what should we do now? Where is Jack? Tell him to come quickly! The motorcycle robbers are coming!" Fiona was scared to death. His arms tightly wrapped around the money; he was fighting with all his strength.
Andrew wanted to catch someone else, but he was pushed until he fell to the ground. The two men immediately approached Fiona to pick up the pouch.
At this moment, Jack ran into the view.
"Hurry, Jack. Hurry along! I can't hold on much longer. Money taken!" Fiona squealed as she looked at Jack.
Unfortunately, his strength could not match those two young men. The bag in his hand was snatched away.
"Stop!" Fiona jumped forward thinking of the 3 million dollars in the bag, sticking to the man who had just climbed onto the motorcycle.
"Take me off, you old b*tch!" Shock jerks the man when Fiona sticks to him. He kicked Fiona until she fell to the ground. The bike took off in a cloud of dust. The other two bikes drove forward, following the first bike.
However, Jack only stood a few meters away from them.
"Stop!" He shouted, his expression darkened.
"Run up on that bastard!" One of the men riding the bike drove straight towards Jack.
"Jack, move!" Selena cried when she saw this, shock rippling all over her body.
It would be a problem if the bike hit Jack at high speed.
However, just as the bike was about to crash into him, he never expected Jack to dodge so cleverly. With another maneuver, the bike suddenly flipped over. The two people on the bike were sprawled on the ground in an instant and fell a few meters. Lacerations tear off some areas of their skin. The other bike happened to be driving forward as well, but it crashed into a falling bicycle. The rider stepped on the brakes, but the bike remained upside down. The two people on it also fell to the ground, shrieking in pain.
At this moment, Fiona, Andrew, and Selena finally ran over.
"B*stard. Do you have a death wish, take my money?" Fiona was so angry that she could explode. He immediately picked up the bag of money before landing some ferocious kicks at one of the men lying on the ground.
Jack also approached. With each kick, he sent the four men flying into a tree by the roadside, as if they were a football.
"Master, please—please let us go!" One of the men pleaded with gasps after he realized how powerful Jack was. He took off his helmet.
All three of his comrades were just lying there, helpless. They knew that they had chosen the wrong person this time. They're destined.
"What about the 3.8 million dollars you took two days ago? Where now? Tell me. Also, how do you know that my mother-in-law came here to save her money?" Jack crouched down and asked, his expression calm.
"We—we don't know anything about the 3.8 million. It happened—we saw this old lady had a pouch in her hand and thought there was money in it. That's why we act as we please. Let's go right, sir? We won't dare to do this again!" One of the man's gazes flickered before he explained the situation to Jack.
Jack laughed coldly. He stood back up and pressed one leg into the man's arm. "I can easily break this arm of yours if you don't tell me the truth!"
Another man cried in pain even though Jack did not exert much strength. "I was wrong, sir. I'm mistaken. Please, don't go that far. I'll tell you—I'll tell you everything. Okay?"
Chapter 277
"Well, tell us quickly. I'll tell you that he's very strong. There's a chance he'll kill all of you if you don't talk!" Fiona did not have the slightest bit of mercy for the captured thief. He spoke in a venomous tone, and he constantly launched his feet towards them. For the past two days, he had not eaten or slept well, thinking of his 3.8 million dollars.
"I'll tell you! We handed over 3.8 million to our boss after we took it. And he gave us each part of it!" The man immediately spilled everything, obviously terrified.
"Then how do you know that we keep our money here? This can't be a coincidence!" Jack asked them again. He already had the answer, but he needed proper confirmation. Moreover, there was no way Andrew and Fiona would think that the culprit was Xena. They both—especially Fiona—have treated Xena as a daughter-in-law.
"It—Xena Jackson told our boss. He was also a member of the Motorcycle Robber. He gave us the information, and if we get the money, he gets twenty percent of all the parts for himself. He got more than us. did!" The man immediately revealed.
"Dam!" Fiona's features were wrinkled; she almost wanted to faint. Head buzzing.
"Cannot be. How could he..." Andrew remained silent. He never imagined that Xena was the mastermind.
"Now I remember. Twice when we talked about saving our money, Xena and Ben were there. There's no way Ben would do this. But I never thought ... We treated him very well, and he ..." Consciousness sweeps Andrew . He looked at his daughter-in-law. "Jack, we're both just witnesses to your show, right?" she said. "I think you've long suspected Xena."
Selena cut in before Jack could speak, "Dad, it has nothing to do with him. The point is I think there's something wrong with Xena. That woman couldn't do anything good, so I suspected her. I just told Jack to find a way for something to happen to reveal the truth!"
"I don't care who it is! I just want my money back!" After her shock subsided, Fiona shouted even louder, "It must have been the last four of you! Returned money. Give me back my 3.8 million dollars!"
“Our money is not much, Mom. We only got about 10 grand each here. More importantly, the boss of the Motor Robber took the money. Of course, other than him, Xena who took the most. The other members of our respective gang only got a few thousand. They'll probably just use it for dinner or something!" The man had a bitter expression. His injuries are quite serious now. He wondered if he would be beaten to death if Fiona kept kicking him like that.
"You still have to go to work later, Selena. How about this? You bring Mom and Dad back first, and I'll make them take me to their boss. I'll help you find the money." Jack said to Selena after he thought for a moment.
"alright. But you have to be careful, understand?" Selena shook her head. He is well aware that not only will he and Fiona be of little help if they leave, but they may instead become a hindrance to Jack. It would be better for him to go alone.
"Jack, I put my money in your hands. You have to get it back! Besides, you told me that you would recoup my losses if you can't find them within a week!" Fiona reminded Jack. He didn't care if he was in danger.
"Let's go, Mom!" Selena gave a smile.
"We're not leaving yet. We were right outside the bank. We'll be back after I deposit these 3 million. Jack told me that it was for me!" fiona said while grinning. He picked up the bag and headed towards the bank.
"Mom, take a look inside that bag. There's only old paper there. What money are you talking about?" Selena's lips curved into a bitter smile.
"What?" Fiona let out a breath of disbelief. Now she understood why Selena had stopped her from opening the pockets as they played together; it was because there had been no money in there all along.
He opened the bag. Anger suddenly gripped him, and he simply flopped onto the ground. "My money—3 million! It's gone!"
Selena looked at Jack; she did not know whether to laugh or cry hearing this.
Chapter 278
Andrew also did not know to laugh or cry when he saw his wife lying on the ground like that. "Don't you understand? There was never any money in it. Miss Tanya never gave Jack a bonus. It was a trick to lure Xena."
"Let's go, Ma. Let's go home first. I'm sure Jack will return your 3.8 million dollars soon!" Selena helped her mother to stand up, and the three of them disappeared quickly.
Jack watched as the four men slowly stood up, their faces deathly pale. He pondered for a moment. "Let's go," he said. "Take me to your boss."
"Then I will beat you all to death now if you don't take me to see him!" Jack threatened them with laughter.
"I advise you not to go at all" said another man. "You seem very strong, but if you do, not only may you not be able to get the money, you may even die horribly!"
"You don't have to worry about this. Just take me there. I won't stop you from leaving if you want!" Jack let out a humorous laugh. He did not believe that he could not face the Motorcycle Robber.
"All right, punk. Don't regret it when you get there. Our boss is a very cruel character. Whatever he took, he would never see daylight again!"
"And killing someone in Eastfield is as easy as breathing for him!" The man from earlier spoke to Jack again.
"really? Then I want to see how bad he is to myself!" Jack shrugged his shoulders.
Since the four men were not seriously injured, Jack let them rest for a few minutes before forcing them to return to the bike, with him riding the piggyback to meet their boss. Back then, in a small forest on the outskirts of the city, many motorcycles were gathered and parked in one place. More than twenty young people were sitting on the ground, smoking.
"You're amazing, Xena. You helped us earn so much money two days ago, and now we have even more!" A man wearing a singlet and lollipop candy stuck in his mouth grinned.
Xena smoked her cigarette. "Young Master Howard, don't be so humble. Not that you lack money. You are Lord Howard's son from the Dragon God. Do you really think it matters a few million?"
"That's right, Boss. You're too simple. Your family has a lot of business around here. You just open your mouth and your parents will give you—what, a billion, ten billion? All for your expenses.Easy things to do too!" A grunt spoke, smiling.
"Is it really the same?" Young master Howards laughed, then he walked over to the side of a beautiful young lady. He cupped his chin, his lips curved. "My father got his own money. I spend the money I make myself. It gives me more comfort, and keeps me grounded! Besides, he's a pathetic b*stard. He only gave me five million a month. How is that enough! "
"Cannot be. It was too little, especially for the son of the Dragon God. Your gang is considered one of the best around here. Of course, five million is not enough!" The grunts from before quickly said in a flattering tone.
They waited for another two minutes before Young Master Howard began to grow impatient. He glanced towards the entrance of the city. "Gosh, Nick and the others have been gone too long. Xena, can your source be trusted?"
Xena leaned against the tree. "Of course," he said, an evil smile on his face. "Don't worry. The old couple will definitely deposit 3 million dollars!"
Chapter 279
"alright. You'll get 600 grand this time. Pretty much a lot!" Young Master Howard said with a laugh.
Xena sat on the ground. "At first, I dated Ben because I thought he was a Taylor. Even if he was kicked out of the Taylor family, it doesn't mean that his family won't have any money" he said. "Then I dated him for so long, and only then did I discover that the b*stard family really didn't have much money. It pisses me off. It's a loss for me!"
He paused here for a moment before continuing, "If I wasn't used to playing online games with him, and if he wasn't a fantastic gamer, I would have left him a long time ago. I never thought that his return." brother-in-law b*stard it would give me a chance to earn money!"
Young Master Howard walked until he was in front of him. He pressed her to the ground and planted a wild kiss on her lips. Then he sat on the ground as well, dissatisfied. "Then did he use you, baby?"
"Cannot be. With her appearance, letting her hold my hand was already a miracle!" After Xena said that, she grabbed Young Master Howard's hand and leaned her head against his shoulder. "I like you, Young Master Howard. That boy is nothing. He just gave me a chance to make money. He even invited me to dinner among the Taylor family. If I could sniff out the other Taylor's potentially good ones, I'd get money from them too."
"Well! You really are money-faced!" Young Master Howard laughed out loud. Xena is someone who really adores gold. He's too aware of this.
But this woman still wants to marry him. It was nothing but a fever dream. If this woman wasn't very handsome, or if her figure wasn't very good, or if she didn't enjoy the night they spent together, she wouldn't bother him.
He is the young lord of the Howards. Even though he was the young master of the underground society, it was still a powerful society. They are definitely a force to be reckoned with, and they are not short of money. That was why he would never marry someone like Xena if he had to marry.
"God. I love money, but I love you more!" Xena pouted, trying to beg him.
"Then what about this? I will give you another ten percent of the money today, so you will earn a total of thirty percent. How's that sound?" Young Master Howard said, smiling after he thought about it for a while.
"Thank you?" Xena's eyes brightened as soon as she heard that. Thirty percent is a full 900 thousand — 300 thousand more than the amount they have agreed on before. This might be a small sum to Young Master Howard, but it was a large sum to him.
"But—you already know this. Don't go and see your idiot 'boyfriend' tonight. I want to get royal treatment from you!" Young Master Howard let out an evil laugh, lightly hitting his thigh as a hint.
"Don't worry. I will definitely arrange everything well tonight!" Xena said with a smile.
The people around them couldn't help but smile wryly as they watched this exchange. This woman loves money more than life itself. As long as you have the money and give him a few hundred thousand dollars, he will probably sleep with anyone.
"They're back. They're back! My God, they're finally back after a long time away!" Finally, the man who was watching the entrance of the city saw two motorcycles speeding towards them.
"Huh. As long as they come back, everything is forgiven. My men, now we wait to split the money!" Young Master Howard stood up and said, his eyes wrinkled into a narrow line.
"Why don't I see the bag? Maybe they need a big bag to hold three million dollars." A woman frowned as she thought about it.
Chapter 280
"Cannot be. Fiona and Andrew are old enough. There's no way the four of them failed to snatch the goods." Xena frowned when she heard that. He walked to see. When he saw it, his face wrinkled in disgust—because there were no pockets in sight.
"Useless! Four men and they can't rob an old couple?" Young Master Howard's expression hardened. He doesn't look very happy.
Although three million dollars was nothing much to him, he never liked to fail at anything he did.
"It looks like there's three bikes, but there's an extra passenger riding one of them!" One of the men exclaimed as they approached. The bike is moving forward. Those people are full of unbelief. Five people got off the bike.
"Bo–boss..." One of the men had a torn wound on his forehead; blood stained his face. He ran to Young Master Howard. "We—we didn't manage to get the item," he said, a tinge of fear mixed in his voice. "We fell into a trap!"
"It's useless!" Young Master Howard made a ferocious kick towards the man. Then he saw Jack. "Who is this bastard?" ask him to his four men.
"Ja–Jack? Why are you here?" Xena's eyes flickered; her expression turned into one of terrible shock.
He's been thinking about everything. He needed to find a way to earn money for himself. Even if he didn't marry Young Master Howard in the future, it didn't matter as long as he had his own money and could live a comfortable life. If that doesn't work out, he can still marry Ben, regardless of his trash. Or he could leave town alone, start a new one somewhere else. He never thought that Jack would actually come. This was a clear indicator that he had seen through his ruse.
"You know him?" Young Master Howard was stunned, "Why does Jack's name sound familiar?"
"Young Master Howard, this punk is a skilled fighter, and he's a bodyguard for Drakes. She's also Selena's husband, and Ben's brother-in-law!" Xena immediately said to Young Master Howard.
"Skilled fighter? How skilled, exactly?" Young Master Howard smiled cynically. "Oh, so this is a useless man who took his wife" he said. "I remember you telling me that this bastard practically destroyed the Taylor family. If it wasn't for her, Selena would never have been kicked out of the Taylor family. Too bad. That beauty was snatched away by a pig like that!" Here, he stretched his limbs lazily. "I heard Selena is very attractive," she said with a seductive expression. "It's a pity that I'm not interested in women who are married and have children. I might want to play around with her if she's not married!"
"You beat up all four of them, eh, motherfucker? That's delicious!" A grunt turned his lips into a slick smile.
"The bastard didn't really beat us. But he must be quite skilled. He managed to grab our bike and turn it over. Who knows what would happen if the bike didn't fall!" One of the injured men spoke up, trying to maintain his dignity.
