Chapter 86 What Is True Revenge

Not too far off, in a booth, there was Arthur, surrounded by a bunch of women. I didn't think he'd be living it up like that after all this time.

I glanced over and saw Ethan eyeing him too. But he didn't look surprised at all, just casually lit up a cigarette.

Our crew was pretty hard to miss. Arthur spotted us quick and, man, he looked freaked out.

I thought, 'Well, if you've got a guilty conscience, you're bound to be jumpy, right?'

Arthur jumped up from his group and bolted. I tried to go after him, but Ethan held me back. Soon enough, I got why Ethan stopped me-Arthur had no chance of getting away.

After just a few steps, a bunch of guys came out of nowhere and tackled him to the ground.

We strolled over, and Oliver bent down, grabbed Arthur by the hair, and yanked his head up. "Did you really think you could run away?"

I was floored. From the way he talked, it seemed like we came here just to nab Arthur. Or maybe, dealing with Arthur was the whole point of this trip.

Arthur got tied up tight with ropes and dragged out.

The folks in Sunhaven City were way more chill than those in Starlight City; this scene didn't faze them at all. Everyone just kept doing their thing like nothing happened.

Arthur got tossed into a van, and we piled into an SUV. Both rides took off, heading deeper into the boonies.

Eventually, we pulled up outside this creepy, abandoned factory.

Arthur got thrown inside by those guys, who then came out and had a few words with Ethan before taking off.

I didn't catch what they said, but they seemed pretty respectful to Ethan.

We headed towards the factory, with Ethan and the others leading, and Bella holding me back, whispering, "Looks like Ethan's here to settle the score for you, Emmy. This time, don't go soft, okay?" Honestly, the moment I saw Arthur, I got all fired up. I clenched my fists. "Why should I go easy on someone who's screwed me over so many times?"
