Both Aaron and Michael were completely frightened, and they trembled like mad when they saw it.

How cruel of Zeke Williams and Hadley Murphy!

This was no place to stay, so the two of them prepared for their escape.

“Stop right there!” Zeke shouted.

With wildly thumping hearts, Aaron and Michael said, “Wh-what do you want?”

Zeke glared coldly at the two of them. “Tell me. Who hit my wife?”

Michael attempted to explain himself, “I...I was doing this for Lacey...”

Bang!

Zeke dashed forward and gave Michael a huge slap.

It was a slap so strong that it sent Michael’s body flying through the air. He somersaulted halfway before he landed heavily on the ground.

He was nearly rendered unconscious as a few bloodied teeth flew out from his mouth.

Even though Aaron loved his grandchild, he was stunned by Zeke’s cruel tactics and was too frightened to protest.

Feigning calmness, he said, “Since you’ve hit Michael, we can call it even. Michael, let’s go.”

“Who says we’re calling it even?” Zeke sniggered coldly. “Michael’s life is as lowly as a dog’s, while my wife is a precious jewel. How can we equate them?”

Aaron gritted his teeth. “Williams, what else do you want? Don’t go too far.”

Zeke snarled, “I would have initially destroyed your entire family since you’ve touched my wife, but considering that you all share my wife’s surname, we won’t need your family to die. We will just need to break all of you up.”

Aaron shouted at him angrily, “How dare you, you arrogant ba****d! The Riverdale Hintons have been an established family for over a hundred years! Our roots are deep. It is not up to you to break us up!”

Aaron shouted at him angrily, “How dare you, you arrogant ba****d! The Riverdale Hintons have been an established family for over a hundred years! Our roots are deep. It is not up to you to break us up!”

Zeke smiled as he took out his phone to call the Ocean’s Chamber of Commerce. “In ten minutes, I want the Riverdale Hintons to disappear from the face of this earth.”

The Ocean’s Chamber of Commerce comprised of members from the upper echelons of Rivermouth’s business world. Hence, it would not be far-fetched to say that they wielded the economy of Rivermouth in their hands.

It was simply too easy for him to get rid of the Riverdale Hintons.

Aaron laughed maniacally. “Ten minutes? Hoho! You wouldn’t be able to do it even if I gave you ten years!”

Aaron’s phone suddenly rang, and he quickly picked it up.

“Aaron Hinton, the goods are not of standard, and we want to send them back. Please return all the payment and compensation to us.”

Huh?

Aaron was dumbfounded. “Sir, how could this be? I’m sure there’s been a mistake somewhere...”

However, the other party had hung up before Aaron had a chance to explain himself.

A few other phone calls came back to back after that.
