Chapter 403 Jarrett Enraged Horatio was cursing in his mind, but outwardly, he continued to analyze point by point. "Mr. David, do you now understand why I told you not to lay a finger on Ambrose? That boy is the apple of Jarrett's eye. If he gets hurt only a little, Jarrett will refrain from taking rash actions for fear of the consequences. However, if you harm Ambrose, Jarrett will definitely fight us tooth and nail! Right now, when we need all hands on deck to delay Kallum, we simply can't afford to face another powerful enemy."

David huffed in dissatisfaction, "You Chanaeans sure overthink things. You said you could handle this person, so why are you still here?"

"Right, right, I'm on it," Horatio agreed, not keen on prolonging the conversation with David. He quickly led his group to meet Jarrett.

The firefight between the two sides had barely lasted a quarter of an hour, yet many were already dead or injured. Jarrett was truly enraged. Out of everyone, they dared to harm his younger brother. Thus, if anything happened to Ambrose, he would drag them to hell with him, even if it cost him his life!

Horatio emerged at that very moment.

"Mr. Jarrett, please keep calm," he pleaded, gripping Ambrose's arm. Ambrose had been flogged, his upper garment stripped away, revealing the bloody traces of his punishment. The sight made Jarrett's pupils contract in horror!

"What do you want?" Jarrett wasn't wearing his glasses. His icy gaze was fixed directly on Horatio, causing the smile on Horatio's face to freeze momentarily before he recomposed himself after a couple of seconds.

"I want Calista." Horatio stated plainly, not beating around the bush. "As long as you can secure Calista, I will return Mr. Ambrose to you. I heard you and Mr. Ambrose have been relying on each other since childhood. Meanwhile, Calista is just a woman. You should know what to do, right?"

"You want me to hand over Calista?" Jarrett scoffed as if he'd just heard a joke.
