Chapter 512: Chapter 477: Whoever Moves, Gets Executed (Part 2)
"What are you doing here?"
Chloe Stephens’s gaze fell on Patrick Lewis and Riley Downing who had stopped.
Riley blinked and said, "Since the Fisher Family declined, we rarely show up in public to avoid causing unnecessary trouble for you, Sister. But this time, we found that quite a few people are targeting the Stephens Family. We were worried that there might be problems here, so..."
"The Stephens Family will handle it."
"But..." Riley wanted to say something when Patrick’s hand landed on her shoulder.
"The Watsons Family may have already joined forces with the Hawthorne Family. There are even repeated appearances of Dark City forces here. I suspect someone wants to replicate the fate of the Fisher Family, trying to destroy the Stephens Family."
This was only a guess by Patrick and Selvi Reinhard.
Presumably, the Stephens Family has already found that their businesses outside Sheffield City are being disrupted.
The Stephens Family has been banned by the Slaughter Squad.
They cannot leave Sheffield City for a year.
Someone took advantage of this opportunity to gather forces from all sides to deal with the Stephens Family.
"Every great family will offend some people in the process of developing and consolidating their family. The Stephens Family is no exception."
Enemies can never be completely eliminated.
Some grudges are simply inexplicable.
Just being jealous can lead to a fight.
"Sister, let us help the Stephens Family. Although I am from the Fisher Family and it is not appropriate to appear, I can at least help you with some things behind the scenes." Riley pleaded to Chloe Stephens.
Chloe said to Patrick, "Take her back, the Stephens Family does not need your interference. Just do your own thing."
After dropping these words, Chloe turned and walked into the darkness.
Riley looked at Patrick, "Uncle Lewis, what do we do now?"
"We will watch from the shadows for now. There’s no rush," With so many people gathering inside Sheffield City, it was unclear how they intended to deal with the Stephens Family.
Adam Stephens, who had barely managed to deal with the company matters, returned to the Stephens Family but was called over by Elliot Xenos before he could enter Building 3.
On the way, Elliot Xenos worried, "The people entering Sheffield City may not only be from the Hawthorne Family, but also a large number of Dark City forces. Yancy Fisher, hiding behind the Watsons Family, secretly sent many people back to Sheffield City."
Adam Stephens furrowed his brow.
"What does father mean? Since the Hawthorne Family has come to Sheffield City, there’s no need to send people into the Imperial Capital."
"The real power holder of the Hawthorne Family is in the Imperial Capital. If they are not dealt with properly, more and more people from the Hawthorne Family will keep coming out to cause trouble."
The meaning behind the words was to completely deal with the Hawthorne Family.
Adam guessed at what Pierce Stephens was thinking.
He intended to uproot the entire Hawthorne Family!
Could it be done?
Although the Stephens Family was the first prominent family in Sheffield City, they were nothing in the ranks of the ancient clans.
Inside Building 1.
All the high-level members and elders of the Stephens Family were present, their faces gloomy and heavy.
Those of the same age as Adam were also sitting here, with everyone’s expressions heavy.
Adam took his seat and glanced at everyone present.
"Our people have detected that not only the two ancient clans in the Imperial Capital but also the forces of the Dark City have sent people into Sheffield City. As soon as the Slaughter Squad withdrew from Sheffield City, they entered. Clearly, someone wants to divert the attention of the Slaughter Squad to attack and retaliate against our Stephens Family," one elder said coldly.
Another continued, "The Fisher Family’s attack and Yancy Fisher, who married into the Watsons Family, will surely send people to suppress us. Maybe the Watsons Family will also send people separately, and if the Hawthorne Family produces more characters like Jade Hawthorne, the crisis our Stephens Family faces will be even greater."
There was another moment of silence after these words were spoken.
"No matter how many people they send, we cannot retreat."
If they retreated, they would follow in the footsteps of the Fisher Family or worse.
At least the Fisher Family still had many ordinary people left.
The little girl who withdrew from the Fisher Family should not be underestimated either.
Adam could see that everyone seemed somewhat helpless or even nervous.
Everyone was tense, and both their words and expressions seemed to be making a last-ditch effort."We can apply for the protection of the Slaughter Squad. If it weren’t for their restrictions on our Stephens Family’s activities, we wouldn’t be in such a predicament now."
Someone else slammed the table and stood up, making a suggestion to Pierce Stephens.
Pierce looked at the person and calmly said, "Captain Hawthorne of the Slaughter Squad is a member of the Hawthorne Family. Although he has had a fierce conflict with the Hawthornes, he still shares their blood. It’s impossible for him to let us off easily. If we have a major conflict with the Hawthorne Family, it would already be a good thing if he doesn’t use the power of the Slaughter Squad to suppress our Stephens Family. And you still want to ask him for help?"
Isn’t that being too bold?
Even if Len Hawthorne agreed to help, the Stephens Family would not dare to accept his kindness.
After Pierce’s words fell, everyone present fell silent.
Because Pierce was right, even if Len Hawthorne came forward to help them, the Stephens Family would not dare to accept.
Who knows if Len Hawthorne might stab them in the back?
Don’t forget, the Fisher Family became what it is today completely due to Len Hawthorne pulling the strings behind the scenes.
Their meeting lasted until midnight. Some people, as soon as they left Building 1, were already thinking about how to plot their escape.
Not everyone can advance and retreat with the family. After witnessing what happened to the Fisher and Taylor Families, the Stephens Family members really lack the confidence to deal with the ancient clan powers from the Imperial Capital and the people from Dark City.
Dark City just wants a piece of the action and to stir up trouble.
Some of them have no grievances with the Stephens Family at all.
Adam Stephens sat until the end, looking at Pierce, and seeing exhaustion in his eyes.
Too many things have happened within the Stephens Family in recent days.
Pierce hasn’t been able to sleep peacefully or eat well.
Although the Stephens Family appears to be calm internally, the external matters keep rolling in, one after another, and are reported to Pierce.
On top of that, the forces entering Sheffield City are staring at the Stephens Family with vigilant eyes.
"Father."
Adam wanted to say something but couldn’t find the words.
Pierce looked at him and said, "Now that there are so many spies gathered in Sheffield City and our Stephens Family is surrounded, I know that you want to break through and fight the enemy desperately. But I don’t want you to be in the front. If the Stephens Family is not controlled, go to Dark City to find your mother. I have arranged everything with Caden Reid. Even if the Stephens Family is finished, as long as you are there, we can still make a comeback."
Pierce had already prepared for the worst-case scenario.
If it was just the Hawthorne Family, their Stephens Family could still struggle to fight.
But if you add the Watsons Family from the Imperial Capital and the chaotic forces of Dark City, their Stephens Family probably won’t be able to withstand them for long.
Adam looked at Pierce in shock, "What do you mean? Are you telling me to be a deserter?"
"To leave a direct heir of the Stephens Family," Pierce calmly said.
Adam furrowed his brows, "I won’t run."
After saying this, Adam strode out of Building 1.
Elliot Xenos looked at Pierce.
Pierce said, "As soon as the forces in Sheffield City make a move, you personally take Adam away. As long as he is there, our Stephens Family still has hope."
"Family leader!"
Elliot only wanted to stay with the Stephens Family through life and death.
"This is just the worst-case scenario, the Stephens Family may not lose."
Pierce’s gaze fell on the piece of paper returned to the table, his eyes gradually deepening.
Chloe Stephens arrived at the Taylor Family home. Evan Taylor rushed back from outside and hurried upstairs. He saw Chloe standing at the railing, admiring the dark night.
Evan walked a few steps behind her, "Ancestral god! I immediately rushed back after hearing some definite news."
"Keep an eye on Sheffield City. I’ll take a trip to the mountain county."
"Now?"
Evan looked at her, "Did you receive any news?"
"No," Chloe walked down the stairs on the left, "Whoever moves, just execute them on the spot. There’s no need to be polite."
"Yes!"
Evan nodded to Chloe.
Looking up at the sky, he felt tonight’s darkness was particularly thick.
