Chapter 1112 How To Choose Sides
When Donald regained his senses, he found himself alone. The other person had left, and Donald realized that his opponent was just as strong as he was. Due to his own carelessness, he had failed to prevent the man from escaping.
However, Donald didn't leave the encounter empty-handed. He now knew for certain that there were indeed experts present in the Enigma Club.
Shortly after the man's departure, several vans arrived at the entrance of the alley. Newton and his subordinates swiftly arrived and subdued all of Mad Hound's men.
"Mr. Campbell, I apologize for our tardiness," Newton said, having sent a message to Donald before his arrival.
Initially, Donald had thought that since the Enigma Club was going to be eradicated, it would be better to let Newton handle the aftermath and take over Mad Hound's territory in the process.
He hadn't expected Mad Hound to be killed by one of his own, resulting in the loss of all leads.
"Thank goodness you arrived late. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to stop them from killing you," Newton remarked as he entered the alley, noticing the collapsed wall nearby.
Newton had already realized that there was more to Donald than met the eye, but he hadn't anticipated Donald's immense power, which had effortlessly reduced the wall to its current state.
What surprised Newton even more were Donald's words.
If the other party truly intended to harm me, even Donald wouldn't be able to stop it?
"Mr. Campbell, do you think I should lay low for a while?" Newton asked, glancing at Donald.
"Do you really believe that running abroad would ensure your safety if someone wanted to kill you? Just stay in Pollerton. At least if something does happen, I can seek vengeance on your behalf, right?" Donald replied.
Hearing Donald's response, Newton could only smile wryly to himself.
What's the point of seeking revenge if the person is already dead? Can vengeance bring someone back to life?
Newton felt scared, but he also understood that his relationship with Donald wasn't strong enough for Donald to go out of his way to protect him.
As Donald walked away, Newton fell into silence.
After Donald had left, Newton's assistant, Hagen Castro, whispered to him, "Newton, if even Mr. Campbell can't guarantee your safety, perhaps we should..."
Hagen didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Why do all the underworld bosses in Pollerton adhere to the rules set by Donald? It's because he is tough and capable. If anyone disrespects him, they will be swiftly taught a lesson. But now, there is someone even stronger than Donald—the Enigma Club. Why should everyone still follow Donald's rules? If we were to work with the Enigma Club, we could make quick money without abiding by Donald's rules. Standing with you, Donald, not only puts our lives at risk, but we also can't make any profit.
In Hagen's opinion, joining the Enigma Club was in their best interest.
However, after a moment of contemplation, Newton said, "Have the men clean up this place. We're taking it over. But during this period, keep a close eye on them for me. Make sure they don't break any rules. If anyone disobeys Mr. Campbell, don't blame me for leaving them out to dry."
Hearing Newton's words, Hagen realized that he was serious.
This only deepened Hagen's confusion. Why, even at this point, does Newton still choose to stand firmly by Donald's side?
Observing Hagen's puzzled expression, Newton patted him on the cheek and said, "Hagen, remember this. Some people in this world may not appear impressive, but when they take action, they strike like a thunderbolt. Mr. Campbell is the kind of person that even if you're not his friend, you should never become his enemy."
