Chapter 66
“I-It’s with the guy called Tigre.” Zoe awoke from her daze and trembled uncontrollably. The scene before her was too horrifying.
Thomas nodded and took out his phone to call Sean. No one was better than Sean and William when it came to investigating people, and Thomas was eager to know who Dominic’s killers were.
In the meantime, Sean was reading a book when he received Thomas’ call. When he heard what happened to Dominic, he was instantly enraged and cursed into the phone. “Thomas, wait right there. I’ll be there in a minute.” Then, he quickly changed his clothes and ran out of his villa, not forgetting to inform William on his way.
Although they were not acquainted with Dominic, Thomas’ best friend, they considered him their buddy regardless. Therefore, they had to avenge their friend, who had been mercilessly tortured to death!
Thomas sat on the couch, smoking and quietly awaiting Sean and William’s arrival. As for Zoe, she did not dare to make a sound and sat there with an ashen face. She would occasionally sneak a glance at the man, wondering, How could this Thomas guy be so cruel? He killed sixteen people in a split second. Sixteen lives are gone just like that!
Half an hour later, Sean and William arrived at Twilight Bar, but the gory scene did not shock them at the least. Since they grew up in prestigious families, they had seen more ruthless scenes than this one.
“Johnson Kutcher!” William immediately recognized the man in the sportswear. He was a member of the Minacia Oito Irieson and was a known sc*mbag in the country.
“You guys recognize this man?” asked Thomas.
“We do. He’s one of the notorious Minacia Oito Irieson members, Johnson Kutcher,” Sean replied while approaching the bar to make three cocktails before proffering them to William and Thomas.
“Minacia Oito Irieson? What kind of organization is that?”
“To put it simply, it’s an organization made up of eight ruffians, and this guy ranks seventh among them.”
Nodding, Thomas requested, “Get me the information on the other seven, especially the one called Tigre. He has Dominic’s corpse.”
“Uh…”
“Thomas…”
The duo looked at each other, obviously stumped by what Thomas had asked of them. Then, they gave him a hesitant look.
Thomas finished his cocktail. “You don’t have to hide anything from me. Just speak your mind.”
“The Minacia Oito Irieson is a force to reckon with, and their internal forces are complicatedly intertwined. If we act rashly, we might bring trouble onto ourselves and cause a huge commotion that would spiral out of control.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Sean and William seemed worried. It was not because they did not want to help, but this matter was enormous. They would have to kill all eight of them to eradicate the organization. Otherwise, there would be endless trouble.
Hearing that, Thomas set his glass on the table before putting a cigarette between his lips, to which Sean quickly lit it. While staring at Johnson’s corpse, Thomas felt no fear or compassion, only endless fury.
“Thomas, we will deal with Minacia Oito Irieson, but it must be done in the long run, and we must make comprehensive arrangements. Frankly, even our two families might not be able to compete with the
hidden forces behind all eight of them,” William explained solemnly.
“He’s right, Thomas. We have to devise a full plan for this,” Sean concurred with William.
Thomas looked at his two friends and took a drag of his cigarette. “Just give me all the information on Minacia Oito Irieson. I’d love to see how capable they are!”
At that, Sean and William gazed at each other and knew Thomas was serious. Not daring to dissuade him anymore, the two went aside to make phone calls.
Zoe, sitting on the side, watched them quietly because she could not intervene in their conversation. Sean and William were people she only knew from the ‘lore,’ ones she could never get in touch with based on her identity and status. Moreover, it was only thanks to Thomas that she could meet them.
At the thought of him, she felt like she needed to thank Lester because if he had not been kind to Chloe, perhaps Thomas would not have agreed to help her. Now that things had escalated to this point, she remained clueless as to why Thomas would go all out to help her, forgetting that he called Dominic his best friend.
Not long after that, Thomas received the information on Minacia Oito Irieson. Then, he sat on the couch and began carefully reading through them. The other three sat quietly on the side, afraid they would distract him.
After two hours, Thomas finally finished perusing the information and understood why Sean and William were wary of those eight sc*mbags. They were indeed resourceful and had hidden forces protecting them. It was no wonder why they could act so arrogantly.
Rising to his feet, he informed the others, “Alright. You two stay out of this matter and leave it to me.” He did not want to put his friends in a difficult spot because they were not in the same situation. While
he was alone and had no commitments, those two represented their families. “I’d need your help to protect her and this bar. She’s Dominic’s sister, and I don’t want her to suffer any more grievances. I believe it’s not a difficult task for the two of you,” he added.
“Don’t worry, Thomas. No one can lay their hands on Twilight Bar as long as we’re still alive and breathing!” Sean and Thomas swore while patting their chests. Though eradicating the Minacia Oito Irieson might be difficult for them, protecting a bar was breezy, and they believed no one in Irieson would dare to go against them.
After getting their promise, Thomas finally felt assured. He put out his cigarette and left the bar. The duo watched his departing figure as their faces slowly darkened. They could already tell a heavy storm was on its way…
