Hendrik swung his hand to strike Gavin again.

In a flash, Gavin hugged the man’s thigh and cried out, “Trust me, Mr. Landry. I’ll definitely be able to get the money together! You know Cordelia Youngblood, yes? She’s my sister. Not only is she exceedingly wealthy, but she’s also on close terms with South River King!”
“South River King?”
Hendrik was
as stunned for a moment.
Mistakenly assuming that he had gotten an opening, Gavin hastily asserted, “Yes, South River King! My sister is South River King’s woman.”
It was clear as day that he was planning to use South River King to intimidate Hendrik.
Unexpectedly, Hendrik started laughing uproariously after the brief stupefaction.
The other tattooed men surrounding him cracked up as well..
“Haha… I’m increasingly impressed, Gavin! What an absurd excuse! Why don’t you claim that your sister is Empyrean Lord’s woman and see whether we believe you?”
“I’m not lying to you, Mr. Landry. I—”
Slap!
Hendrik slapped Gavin across the face once more. His laughter ceased, and he snarled with a ruthless expression, “Stop wasting my damn time! Call your sister right now and ask her for the money.”
Gavin stiffened.
“What are you waiting for? Do you want a beating from me first?” Hendrik barked.
“No, not at all. Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Landry. It’s because… It’s because I’ve asked her for money too many times. She’ll never trust me anymore.” Gavin’s voice was quivering. When he saw that Hendrik was about to hit him again, he hurriedly suggested, “But Mr. Landry, so long as you take a video of me and send to it my sister, warning her that you’re going to harass my adopted father if she doesn’t pay up, she’ll undoubtedly give you the money.”
He knew all too well that he was nothing to Cordelia.
However, the same could not be said of Walter.
Cordelia certainly cared about Walter, so she would never sit back and do nothing as long as they capitalized on that weakness of hers.

Bringing his leg back. Hendrik kicked Gavin in the face and sneered, “What a good son!”
Emrys initially decided to pay his second pseudo–sister a visit that day, but the instant he stepped into the living room, he was greeted by the sight of Cordelia sitting on the couch sullenly.
“What’s wrong. Delia?” he asked.
“That Gavin is such an ingrate!
Fuming, Cordelia showed the video on her phone to the man.
In a flash, a cold gleam glinted in Emrys‘ eyes.
“Don’t brood over it. Delia. I’ll take care of it”
“You want to seek South River King out
“That isn’t necessary
Emrys gave a cold chuckle before leaving Verdant Estate.
As worry lingered within Cordelia, she gave Yelena a call.
She operates a bar, so the must have some connections with the underground forces. Who knows, she might be acquainted with Midas owner by chance and can ask him for a favor.
No sooner was the phone connected than Yelena’s puzzled voice drifted over from the other end. “Why are you calling me at this hour, Delia?”
“Gavin has been detained by the people from Midas,” Cordelia stated, cutting straight to the
chase.
-That’s none of my business?
“Rys has gone over.”
“What? Rys has gone over? I’ll go and blow Midas up right away!”
Hanging up the phone with a click, Yelena found a bayonet and fastened it at her waist before frantically rushing over to Midas.
If a hair on Rs‘ head is harmed, I’ll definitely torture you within an inch of your life, Hendrik!
Meanwhile, Emrys had arrived at the entrance of the casino. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
He wore a cold expression on his face.
Gavin’s life did not matter to him in the least.
Instead, he was enraged that Hendrik had actually dared to harass Cordelia and threaten to do the
