Chapter 593: Chapter 557: Money or Life (1 more)

Crowley Family.

Ivy Crowley’s attempted deal with Janice Watsons was unsuccessful, and Janice died during the Punitive Expedition Conference.

As for who killed her, Ivy had no recollection.

Not much was remembered by anyone who had attended the Punitive Expedition Conference.

They only remembered that they were attacked by some force shortly after entering the venue and then passed out.

In the living room of the Crowley Family, several elders were discussing how to take over the Hawthorne Family’s businesses outside. Some businesses were difficult for ordinary people to manage, so they still needed the ancient martial families to take over.

The Crowley Family was one of them who wanted to carve up the Hawthorne Family’s businesses.

Ivy had no interest in the family affairs; all she wanted now was Chloe Stephens’ life.

Chloe Stephens and Austin Godfrey growing closer was not a coincidence.

Hazel Foster, sensing her daughter’s thoughts, came over and said, "Ivy, I called the Godfrey Family and arranged for Austin to meet you the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"

Ivy was overjoyed!

"Mom, will he really ask me out?" Ivy’s eyes lit up when she heard Austin’s name.

Hazel Foster smiled and said, "Of course, I called his parents. Our two families fully support the marriage between the Crowley and Godfrey Families. Since you both are of the right age, if the elders find you suitable, they would like nothing more than to arrange a wedding for you on the spot!"

Ivy’s face turned red with embarrassment!

Her anticipation for her marriage with Austin grew bigger.

Then, thinking of Chloe, Ivy frowned.

She said, "Mom, last time I saw Austin walking with Chloe Stephens from the Stephens Family, they seemed very close. What if he doesn’t like me and prefers girls like Chloe?" Ivy bit her lip, her wounded expression pulling at Hazel Foster’s heartstrings.

At the same time, she was also irritated.

The Stephens Family again.

Miss Stephens may want to climb the Godfrey Family’s tree, but it’s up to the Godfrey Family elders to let her do so," Hazel paused, her eyes sharp, "As far as I remember, that little girl from the Stephens Family is still in the Imperial Capital, isn’t she?"

Chloe’s presence in the Imperial Capital was no secret.

Ivy nodded, "She lives right next door to Tristan Keller."

Hazel’s frown grew deeper, "Since she can get close to Austin, let’s investigate the situation first and decide how to deal with her."

With those words, it felt like they were treating Chloe as their servant.

Disposing of her as they pleased.

Ivy’s eyes flickered, "Mom, if we can catch her in a dalliance with another man and present the evidence to the Godfrey Family elders, perhaps we wouldn’t have to lift a finger. In this way, I also display my advantages without stooping to the level of those brawling women."

Hazel Foster nodded, "I’ll send some people here to follow her every move. If we can catch her in an affair, it would be great."

Ivy cracked a small, cold smile.

Even without an affair, she would create one for Chloe.

Len Hawthorne left the remaining cleanup work from the Punitive Expedition Conference to Ethan Coates and his team. He, instead, brought people to the Hawthorne side to forcefully takeover those businesses.

Only some company operations were left untouched.

Please maintain line breaks.Len took over all the uncontrollable and enormously profitable businesses behind the family with swift and decisive action, snatching them from the hands of the various noble families.

Just like the Crowley Family, as soon as the documents were prepared and people in position, Len intervened and took over all the Hawthorne Family’s businesses.

He acted like a bandit.

No matter if other families had already secured the businesses in their hands, he took them first and asked questions later.

This infuriated the other ancient martial clans.

Len had all the gains entered into the Slaughter Squad’s public account, and the squad also dispatched some people to manage them.

"Captain Hawthorne, how are we going to deal with the Watsons Family?"

The Watsons Family was just heavily damaged, not completely ruined like the Hawthorne Family.

And since the Watsons Family had an old ancestor holding the fort, it was not easy to handle them.

Len Hawthorne laughed coldly, a wicked chill in his voice, "Of course they must compensate us. Also, send another team to the Watsons Family."

At his words, the team members cried out excitedly!

They loved doing this kind of thing the most!

Last time, they had collected some gold from the Watsons family, and now that their value had increased, they could surely fetch a few more carloads of gold.

The Watsons family.

At the end of the Punitive Expedition Conference, Blake Watsons clashed with Len Hawthorne, and his old wounds had not yet healed before new ones were added.

Having difficulty recovering from the internal injuries, Blake Watsons had been recuperating at home and wouldn’t go out unless necessary.

Now he finally understood the benefits of laying low like Allen Godfrey.

"Forefather, Captain Hawthorne of the Slaughter Squad is here, insisting on meeting with you," the butler’s voice came from outside.

Blake Watsons’s cold eyes suddenly shot open, revealing a glint of chill.

What did Len Hawthorne want to do, couldn’t he just let them be for a while?

Or was the Slaughter Squad planning to carry out a cleanup of the Watsons family?

Blake Watsons walked out with a gloomy expression.

Upon seeing Blake Watsons, the people outside bowed their heads, not daring to meet his gaze directly.

Blake Watsons took the special passage to the outside.

In this Punitive Expedition Conference, the Watsons family suffered significant losses, which were much better than the direct decline of the Hawthorne Family.

In front of the Watsons family’s main entrance.

Len Hawthorne glanced at the time and, losing patience, said to Hugo Watsons, "Family leader Watsons, if you can’t make a decision, we, the Slaughter Squad, will have to make it for you."

As the words fell, he saw Blake Watsons appear with a gloomy face.

Blake Watsons stared at Len Hawthorne with cold eyes.

His aura was fully open!

Despite this, he still couldn’t suppress Len Hawthorne’s momentum all at once.

Blake Watsons sternly said, "What do you want?"

Len Hawthorne threw all the red and yellow cards in his hand in front of him, "Your family’s choice, life or money."

Upon hearing Len’s words, the expressions of the Watsons family members changed.

Their Watsons family was no ordinary clan in Sheffield City!

They couldn’t be easily bullied by Len Hawthorne!

Ignoring the anger of the Watsons family members, Len Hawthorne wore a smile and stared coldly at Blake Watsons.

Whether to fight or to compensate depended on Blake Watsons’s decision.

"How much?"

Blake Watsons had compromised.

Len Hawthorne clicked his tongue, somewhat disappointed.

He had been prepared to fight with the Watsons family, but Blake Watsons had responded with such a statement.

"Taking into account the expenses of this scene, as well as our losses, ten billion in total!"

As Len Hawthorne’s words fell, the Watsons family members were truly enraged!

"Len Hawthorne, who do you think our Watsons family is? It’s not your turn to run wild here!"

"Get out of Watsons family’s territory, and don’t think we are afraid of you just because you are the captain of the Slaughter Squad."

"The Slaughter Squad is just a devil that devours people without spitting out bones!"

"What fair and just? Maintaining world peace, all of these are useless slogans. You, Len Hawthorne, use the Slaughter Squad as a shield to do whatever you want."

One accusation after another did not make Len Hawthorne change his face, but instead, laugh harder.

Len Hawthorne raised his chin.

The team member brought out a calculator, typing incessantly.

"From the Watsons family’s last trip to Sheffield City to our Slaughter Squad’s monitoring in the Imperial Capital, the expenses for handling events back and forth would add up to at least three or four billion. The losses in the Punitive Expedition Conference, the sacrifices of our team members, and the various consequences brought about afterwards, along with the cleanup by our Slaughter Squad, these are all considerable expenses. If your Watsons family needs a detailed account, the Slaughter Squad can provide it."

After finishing, the team member turned around, picked up the password case they had brought, opened it, pulled out the long and lengthy bill inside, and flicked it forward so the Watsons family could see it clearly.

Seeing this several meters long bill, the expression on the Watsons family members’ faces became even more colorful!

Their clenched teeth and sarcastic remarks showed that the Slaughter Squad was indeed well prepared!
