Translator: 549690339
Five-river Province, the Eight-in-One Villa Complex!
This place was Irving Harris’s headquarters, as well as his usual residence.
The sprawling villa complex, spanning several square kilometers, was heavily guarded.
Day and night, any approaching vehicles or people would be driven away!
Because the nature of his business was disreputable, Irving Harris cared deeply about his personal safety.
At this moment, inside the teahouse of the Eight-in-One, two people were playing chess.
“I lose! Brother Irving, your chess skills are still formidable. I’m thoroughly convinced by my defeat!”
Cesar Pendleton chuckled wryly, conceding the game by tossing in his piece.
“Little brother, you’re just letting me win! ”
Irving Harris smiled as he picked up his teacup and sipped lightly, “Brother Cesar, what brings you to me this time?”
Cesar Pendleton had a decent relationship with Irving Harris.
Over the years, the two of them often played chess together and discussed the situation in Five-river Province.
Although Irving Harris was different from those high-profile bosses and even seemed overly low-key,
his ambition was in no way inferior to theirs!
“To tell you the truth, Brother Irving must be aware of the recent chaos in Five-river Province, right?”
Cesar Pendleton got straight to the point, studying Irving Harris as he spoke.
“Indeed! With such a commotion, it seems it would be even harder not to Imow! ”
Irving Harris nodded.
Lately, Five-river Province was stirring with activity, and the region that had been quiet for decades seemed to be on the verge of great change.
How could he miss this opportunity?
Although he rarely dealt with those big shots, Irving Harris’s determination to reach the top of Five-river Province was not a bit less intense than theirs!
People looked down on the dirty business Irving Harris was involved in, but he similarly despised their hypocritical airs.
“To be honest!”
Cesar Pendleton chuckled wryly, looking a bit troubled, “I recently took a big fall in Gonzalez City! Because of a woman, I was beaten!”
He furrowed his brow, speaking grimly, “I thought that would be the end of it. But who would have known that the person who beat me came here. I wanted to get even, but then Miguel Abbott stuck his nose into it!”
“Miguel Abbott?”
Irving Harris frowned, “What does he have to do with this? He’s really reaching too far!”
The two men had past grievances.
So the moment Irving Harris heard the name Miguel Abbott, he became serious.
“That young man, somehow, he got involved with Miguel Abbott! Now with Miguel backing him, it’s difficult for me to deal with him!”
Cesar Pendleton gritted his teeth, “I must get revenge for this indignity!”
Being forced to lick shoes, especially in front of so many of his own employees.
How could he swallow such an affront?
Just then, Irving Harris’s phone suddenly rang.
After answering, he quickly hung up.
“Little brother, you’ve come at the right time!”
Irving Harris smiled at Cesar Pendleton, “My men have already surrounded Pearl on the Water! You want revenge, right? Come with me, and I guarantee we’ll make the Abbotts hand him over!”
He leaned on his cane and rose from his chair, and immediately employees came over to assist him.
This was an old injury from when he started his rise to power, with his leg broken by an assailant!
And the person who did it was none other than Miguel Abbott’s brother, Benjamin Abbott.
After Irving Harris rose in power, he retaliated by crippling both of Benjamin’s legs.
And so their enmity was formed. “Brother Irving, you’re going to confront him directly?”
Cesar Pendleton was astonished.
Are they going to go to war just like that?
“Isn’t that a bit too ruthless?”
He had originally intended to win over Irving Harris to put some pressure on Miguel Abbott.
Who would have known Irving Harris would go as far as to directly surround Miguel Abbott’s stronghold with his men.
“Miguel Abbott, what’s he got?”
With a light snort, Irving Harris limped towards the villa’s main entrance.
“Good!”
A gleam flashed in Cesar Pendleton’s eyes, “Then I shall join Brother Harris in this endeavor!”
Having said that, he pulled out his phone and called his employees.
“Cut the crap! If the sky falls, I will hold it up, get over here now!”
After hanging up the phone, Cesar Pendleton laughed out loud, “Mr. Abbott, did you expect this? It’s your turn today!”
Irving Harris’s strength was greater than that of Miguel Abbott.
Previously, since Five-river Province was extremely stable, no one dared to take the risk of offending the big families by making the first move.
Especially Irving Harris, whose unique methods were shunned by all the Bosses in Five-river Province.
Including the Leopold Family and the Potter Family, all considered his business as something not fit for public display!
But now, with Five-river Province in chaos, who could afford to worry about so much?
“Brother, something bad has happened!”
While dealing with business in his office, Miguel Abbott looked up impatiently at the panicking Allen: “How many times have I told you not to panic when something happens
He put aside his work and looked up, “What’s the matter?”
“Boss, Davonte Cook is outside with his men. They’ve smashed the front door of our hotel and are causing a commotion!”
Allen swallowed, his forehead dotted with sweat.
“What are you all doing! If someone dares to cause trouble here, take them down for me!”
Upon hearing that someone dared to stir up trouble at his very stronghold, Miguel Abbott’s anger flared immediately!
Such a loss of face!
“Boss, it’s not that we don’t want to, but these people are elite; our men can’t withstand them!”
Allen’s expression showed difficulty.
They came in directly and started trashing the place without saying a word— who could stand that?
“What does Irving Harris want!” Miguel Abbott stood up, his face full of grave concern.
With more than five hundred people, this was undoubtedly Irving Harris’s doing. The two had long been at odds with each other.
With hostilities at hand, he had to think carefully.
“How many of our people are left at the Pearl on the Water?”
He inquired aloud.
“Fifty! ”
Allen said anxiously, “Our people are too scattered; it is very difficult to assemble them in a short time!”
The Abbott Family did not just have this one property, so their personnel were more dispersed. Besides, with no preparation, where could they instantly gather so many people?
It was clear that the opponent had come prepared to catch them off guard!
“People have already rushed to the elevator; they’re trying to get up, and we can hardly stop them!”
Just then, shouts and the sound of shattering glass came through Allen’s walkie-talkie.
“Cut the power immediately!”
Miguel Abbott pointed at Allen, “Now call people for me, rush over here as fast as possible, as many as you can get!”
He could no longer care about anything else; it was clear that they were targeting him specifically.
Now he was on the 28th floor; it would take some time for those people to climb the stairs. Moreover, climbing stairs was exhausting, which could buy him a little more time.
Miguel Abbott walked to the bedside, unable to help but inhale sharply.
Irving Harris clearly had come prepared to catch him off guard! But before he could regain his composure, Cesar Pendleton drove up to the building again..
