Chapter: 440

"Did you order an attack on Alice at the hospital?" Norah asked.

Jack, unfamiliar with Alice, grasped the gravity of the situation from Norah's mention of the hospital, realizing her visit bore a significant motive. "What is it that you want from me?"

Norah's gaze, intense and unwavering, met Jack's. "My demand is straightforward. I want you to meet your end, alongside your Lover."

The other gang members, who weren't involved in inflicting harm on Alice, could be spared. However, Norah was determined to hunt down the masterminds. As was her custom, before their death, she would ensure they endured the agony Alice had suffered.

Jack chuckled, sitting on the sofa and leaning back just like Sean and Norah. "The last guy who said such things to me is now at the bottom of Rushfall River. Do you also wish to join him to feed the fish?"

Norah and three men uninvitedly showed up, yet they attempted to intimidate. Jack was determined to prove his reputation wasn't for nothing. His status and notoriety in the East Zone were built on his ruthless actions.

Underestimating Norah and the other three, Jack challenged, “Hey, beauty, you're quite attractive. If you agree to be mine, maybe I'LL let you live."

Rage flickered in Sean's eyes. “Who do you think you are?" Jack's audacity in desiring Norah convinced Sean that Jack was courting death.

“I'm the one you'll eventually plead to for mercy." With those words, Jack was done talking to them. "Grab them!"

Jack's crew instantly approached and encircled Norah, Sean, Phillip and Kelvin.

Jack shifted his position on the sofa, exuding arrogance, and lit a cigarette.

Then, he puffed out smoke, his expression barely visible. Coldly, he instructed, “Handle the beauty with care. I plan to savor her and let her friends watch her suffer beneath me."

“Bang!" A shot rang out just as Jack finished his sentence.

“Ah!" Jack's shoulder sprouted a bloody wound. The cigarette fell, scorching a mark on the carpet.

Sean's voice was frosty, saying, "You're annoying."

If not for Norah's insistence on keeping Jack alive for torture, Sean would have aimed for Jack's head.

In agony, Jack shouted, "What are you waiting for? Kill them!"

Jack couldn't rely solely on the men in the room. Hearing the shot, the rest of his crew scrambled for their weapons and hurried toward the commotion.

Jack's right-hand man noticed the unconscious guard by the door and quickly used his phone to rally more gang members. In no time, a crowd of over 50 gangsters assembled. "Pay attention. Four intruders have made it to Jack's quarters. Our job is to capture them. Let's go!"

Even though Sean and the others had guns, Jack supposed his crew could outnumber them. Capturing them after exhausting their bullets shouldn't be a problem.

With his gang members pouring in, Jack pointed at Sean. “Take him down! I want his head!" He assumed Sean's confidence stemmed from the firearm.

“Over here, you guys!" Jack yelled.

A few gang members, including Jack's trusted subordinate, gathered.

“Arm yourselves. We're not Letting them walk out of here today." Jack deemed it humiliation if Sean and the other three left the East Zone safe and sound.
