Chapter 41 A Bad Premonition
Sam's men were all dumbfounded. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
As members of the Ghostly Purgatory Hall clan, they had experienced many different kinds of fights, but the fight today was alien to them.
Sam was a tough guy who could take on five opponents at a time, but he was knocked out with one move.
And he was so miserable-he was clearly getting battered to a pulp.
Gabriel glared at the others of the Ghostly Purgatory Hall before roaring to the phone, "Hey, listen up! I'm Gabriel Edwards. If Ryan Turner, the one in your hands, has a leg broken, I'm sorry to tell you that I'll break one leg of every one of you! No one will be spared!"
At Gabriel's words, Stella became so afraid that her heart leaped into her mouth.
Was such an arrogant threat Gabriel's way of saving Ryan?
She was going to be mad. That would just provoke them.
A person's reputation always had an effect. Hearing the name Gabriel Edwards, the one on the phone immediately quieted down.
Apparently, he knew who Gabriel was.
After a long while, the man's voice came again, "Mr. Gabriel, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right? Ryan is indebted to the Nexus Underground Casino, and we're working to collect the debt. This is reasonable. But you're now trying to stop us. What do you want to do?"
Stella, who was haunted with fear, was so surprised.
The man's attitude even softened.
He seemed to be afraid of Gabriel.
She was puzzled. How could Gabriel make all those great forces in Silverwood turn soft? What was the force behind him?
But no matter what, she finally didn't have to worry anymore.
Gabriel narrowed his eyes and said to the phone, "It looks like you know who I am. That's the best! Stella is gorgeous, and I like her! In order to cuckold the Davis family, I'll interfere with this! But you're right. It is only right and proper to repay one's debts! I'll bring the money and pay Ryan's debt tomorrow. But don't touch him today. If you do, I'll demolish your casino and break your leg!"
Hearing Gabriel's rough words, Stella became very angry.
If she had known this, she wouldn't have asked this bastard for help.
If she got involved with this bastard, her reputation would be ruined sooner or later!
The man on the phone thought for a moment and finally said, "Then I'll do as you require, Mr. Gabriel. I'll never touch Ryan today, but I hope you keep your word. I'm expecting you to pay back Ryan's money tomorrow!"
A deal was made, and the call ended.
Gabriel had bought time for Stella with his influence.
He tossed the phone to her, and his face was still cold.
Looking at the others of the Ghostly Purgatory Hall, he felt so unhappy.
From now on, he would give every force of the Ghostly Purgatory Hall a good training.
Otherwise, when he took it over, he would have to face a horde of ridiculous punks.
Then he would lose all his reputation.
Displeased, he said to these men, "I'm Gabriel Edwards. You're from the Ghostly Purgatory Hall. I think you know me, right?"
"Yes, we know!" A tall guy immediately nodded.
Their clan had been boiling with discussion these days, simply because an unknown man called Mr. Gabriel had set foot on Silverwood.
Demon Enforcer, Leopard Tail, and Leon, all from the Ghostly Purgatory Hall, even treated him with respect and bowed to him.
Now everyone in the clan was guessing who he was.
Although they still had no clue, they were sure that he was very important in the Ghostly Purgatory Hall.
Unexpectedly, because of collecting a debt for someone, they had fallen into his hands.
But the guy's performance today showed that he was not easy to deal with.
"That's good. Pick Sam up and go back to the clan!" Gabriel narrowed his eyes and severely reprimanded, "Tell the head of your clan. I'm very disappointed in Silverwood Clan, and he shall wait for me. I'll go there in a few days!"
"Get out of here!"
His shout in the end made these men tremble.
While supporting Sam, they fled the restaurant in a panic, leaving only a mess behind.
As she looked at the tables turned over and the clutter all over the floor, Stella squatted down, whimpering in sadness and picking up the pieces of the plates.
Her hands were shaking.
Her tears dripped down, forming a pool on the floor.
Why did everyone have to bully her?
And her brother even called her a b*tch!
What had she done wrong? Why did she have to bear all the insults and suffer so much?
Was God blind?
Just when she had lost all faith in the world, a person crouched opposite her, shielding her from the glare of the light.
She looked up and saw a handsome face, where there was a faint smile.
"It's easy to give up. You can do it in an instant! But it's much harder to persist. You've carried the heavy weight all the way to now. Do you want to succumb at the last minute?"
Gabriel's words made her dazed.
The bastard's roguishness was now all gone.
Then she wished to throw herself into his arms and weep to her heart's content.
"Let's meet at Celestial Restaurant on Cloud Street at noon tomorrow. That's a deal!"
Gabriel raised his mouth, leaned close, and whispered in Stella's ear, "This is our first date. Make yourself beautiful and sexy. By the way, put on your black stockings. I like them!"
He brushed off the plate pieces from Stella's hand, got up, and slowly walked out of the restaurant.
Stella's energy seemed to have been drained.
She looked back at Gabriel's back, the resentful gaze appearing again.
She clenched her teeth and said, "B*stard!"
Then she sat on the floor like a pile of mud.
After coming out of the revolving restaurant, Gabriel walked alone on the road.
He smoked in the cold wind. As time went by, he finished a lot of cigarettes.
But he was silent all the way.
His eyes were melancholic, but they were in fact complicated.
Acting was too tiring.
Not only the body but also the mind would be tired.
"I think Ava must have returned home!"
When he came to the entrance of a market, he saw a pair of snuggled lovers walk past.
Somehow he felt worried at that moment.
A girl like Ava would not go to extremes, right?
Feeling worried, he took out his phone and kept scrolling through the contacts.
His finger lingered between "Mia Foster" and "Ava Foster" for a long time.
In the end, he dialed Dr. Mia's number.
"Dr. Mia, Ava has returned home, right?"
When his call was answered, Gabriel had wanted to beat around the bush.
But thinking of Mia's character, he realized it was completely unnecessary.
So he asked Mia directly.
"Ava phoned me in tears half an hour ago, but she didn't tell me where she was. Now she has turned off her phone! Gabriel, I'm telling you, if anything happens to Ava, I won't let you off!"
Mia shouted on the phone.
Once she finished speaking, she hung up.
Gabriel's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling…
