Chapter 296 Case Closed
Everyone in the Freedman clan was intelligent and capable. He immediately understood what Donald
meant.
What Donald meant was that he did not want others to know that he possessed the Dragon badge.
Furthermore, he did not want others to learn that Timothy had offended the holder of the Dragon
badge. Those who offended the Dragon badge holder would be expelled from the Freedman clan, or
worse, imprisoned for life.
“Yes, Mr. Campbell!” Timothy responded.
“I could not be bothered to do something as heinous as extortion, but I despised that family.” Then,
Donald pointed at Timothy. “Get up.”
Timothy stood up, overwhelmed with gratitude. After that, he gave Georgia and her family a sharp
glare.
Georgia, Jerome, and the others were stunned. They immediately knelt in front of Ethan. “Mr. Lynch,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou have to help us!”
Ethan was about to say something when he noticed Timothy staring at him grimly.
Feeling a pang of fear, Ethan could not help but look at Donald.
“Do you care to explain why a gangster like you would borrow someone else’s privilege to scare and
threaten others?” Donald coughed and said casually.
Ethan instantly knelt on the ground. “I made a mistake. I made a grave mistake. Please forgive me, Mr.
Campbell.”
“What have you done wrong?” Donald spoke softly.
Ethan was taken aback. He also had no idea what he had done wrong.
Nonetheless, he knew that if he admitted that he did not know the answer, Timothy would undoubtedly
send him to meet his maker.
Left with no choice, Ethan yelled, “Anyway, I was wrong!”
“No, you did nothing wrong,” Donald replied.
Feeling overjoyed, Ethan raised his head and looked at Donald with anticipation. “I did nothing wrong?
You’re right, I’m innocent…”
“Screw you!” Enraged, Timothy dashed over to Ethan and slapped him across the face. “Don’t you
even know what you’ve done wrong?”
Ethan was on the verge of crying. His brain did not seem to be working. He looked at Donald, then at
Timothy. “I was wrong!” he repeated.
“And what have you done wrong?” Donald inquired once more.
Just like that, he was caught in a strange cycle.
Tears streamed down his cheeks. “I can’t answer! It’s too difficult!”
Bruno, perplexed, looked around at the other forty-nine people, wondering if they, too, were puzzled by
the situation.
“Mr. Campbell, allow me.” Timothy narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on Georgia and her family.
Georgia and her family were entirely to blame for getting him into trouble with the holder of the Dragon
badge that day.
As a result, he decided that he had to teach them a lesson.
Georgia got down on her knees in front of Reina. “Reina, please beg mercy on our behalf with Mr.
Campbell! You would not be where you are today if it weren’t for the ten million I invested in you!”
Felicia sobbed, “Donald, I’m Jennifer’s best friend. You can’t possibly be that cruel to me!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmReina felt bad for her. She turned to look at Donald.
With a gentle voice, Donald said, “You decide.”
Timothy added, “Mrs. Campbell, you call the shots.”
Mrs. Campbell?
Reina was overjoyed when she heard Timothy say that. She said shyly, “From now on, we have
nothing to do with each other. Is that clear?”
Georgia was stunned. After all, she had never expected Reina to let her go so easily.
She exclaimed in delight, “Don’t worry, Reina. We will never bother you again! I was the one who had
lost my mind. It’s entirely my fault!”
On the other hand, Ethan gave Jerome a kick. “Get lost! Don’t ever hang out with me again!”
After Donald left, Timothy’s expression darkened. He looked around as he sat in the chair. Then, he
said, “Nobody is allowed to leak anything about what happened today. If I find out that anyone of you
has failed to keep their mouth shut, I have a hundred ways to make them vanish from this world. Do
you hear me?”
Everyone hastily nodded in response.
Just then, Ethan asked gingerly, “About Shawsby Mountain…”
