Chapter 11 A Violent Threat

Paul discovered that Nathan and Benson's family were dining at Cloud Palace.

Together with Dico and his gang of thugs, Paul Smith and his party were about to storm into Cloud Palace to look for Benson.

A dozen security guards were dressed in suits, standing in front of the entrance like human barricades, barring them from entering the restaurant.

Exasperated, Paul Smith roared at the group of guards, “Get out of my way!”

A man with a large greenish birthmark on the left side of his face stepped up. “We have been instructed by our boss, Mr. Thomas Dunn, not to accept any guests into our restaurant for the time being. Some very important guests of his are dining in our restaurant right now, and Mr. Dunn doesn’t want them to be disturbed,” he announced coldly.

"Get out of my sight, you green-faced monster.” Dico yelled at Jack with a menacing look, “We are here with Mr. Smith to look for somebody, not to wine and dine. Move aside!”

“What nerve you have to come to Mr. Dunn's turf and make a scene here? Who do you think you are?” Jack tossed his head, “I'm giving you one last chance to get lost, or I'll make sure that they carry you away in stretchers instead.”

It was an open secret in the Eastern District that Thomas Dunn was the undisputed big daddy in town and that Jack was his most trusted sidekick, who was known to be extremely cruel and ruthless.

As Paul looked over Jack's shoulder, he could see Nathan dining with Benson and his family inside Cloud Palace.

Given that this was Jack's territory, Paul knew that he was outnumbered by Jack's men. Besides, it was only the pill that he had wanted, not a confrontation with Jack and his men.

“Look here, Jack. The guy I'm looking for is sitting right inside. Can you do me a favor and let me in?” Paul Smith turned to a more civilized approach

But the answer was still the same from Jack, who kept his unapproachable tone, “No. Our guests of Mr. Dunn are still having their meals now. Nobody shall be allowed inside the restaurant. Get your ass out of here or I'll make you pay for your stubbornness.”

“What's the plan now, Mr. Smith?” Dico muttered to Paul.

Paul sucked in a deep breath to clear his mind, “Okay, let's get out of here first,” he ordered, “but leave a guy here to keep a close eye over them, and get him to call us once Benson steps foot out of the place.”

Knowing that he was no match for Jack and his men, Paul did not dare to stir up trouble in Thomas Dunn's territory. So he took off with his men and left a guy behind to keep a close tab on Benson and his family.
