Chapter 160
Chapter 160
Behind Russell Crow were several high-profile Directors, such as the Head of the Investigation Unit and Traffic Management Bureau. Harry Wilson’s father, Felix Wilson, stood among them as well.
Harry often used to accompany his father to visit Russell Crow, so they knew each other.
He was completely dumbstruck seeing Russell Crow along with a group of directors. “Mr. Crow! What are you doing here?”
Russell immediately walked past Harry without even giving him a glance and stood in front of Nathan, apologizing fearfully. “I’ve found out about everything that had happened here, Mr. Cross. I’m sorry for the trouble.”
Oh God!
The Mayor, Russell Crow, is treating Nathan Cross with so much respect!
Many inside the room were bewildered including Luther Chuss and William Harrison. Even Penny gazed at Nathan in disbelief.
But Nathan didn’t seem to show Russell any mercy. “Since you’re aware of what’s going on, I’d like to see how you intend to handle this issue and give your citizens the justice they deserve!”
Russell nodded fervently. “Yes, sir. I’ll take care of it right away.”
Harry and his men were utterly dumbfounded. “What in the world is going on, Dad?” he asked arduously while gazing at his father.
Felix Wilson slapped his son across the face hard and yelled with anger, “You troublemaking bastard! You said you and your friends wanted to start a food business together and we allowed it. Yet, instead of running the place well, you’re here selling fake liquor to Mr. Cross!”
The elder Wilson became increasingly furious as he spoke. He picked up a wooden chair and threw it onto his own son. “I’m going to kill you for this!”
Harry kneeled on the ground while covering his head, screaming for mercy.
But Felix didn’t stop there. He continued to beat his son with the chair while yelling at him. “It’s better for me to kill you than to have you beaten to death by someone else for all the trouble you have caused!”
Felix sounded extremely harsh and lifted the chair high up, but it landed like a feather.
In truth, Harry was in no pain at all.
Russell frowned slightly. “Mr. Wilson!”
Felix put the chair down and said while panting, “Don’t try to stop me, Mr. Mayor. I have to beat this little punk to death for all the trouble he caused Mr. Cross.”
Nathan merely watched the little show Felix put on all this while, but hearing the latter’s words made him laugh out loud.
Everyone inside the private room turned to Nathan, not understanding why he was laughing.
Nathan’s lips curled into a faint smile as he gazed at Felix and the others. “That’s not how you beat someone up!”
What?
Everyone gazed at Nathan in confusion.
Nathan walked over and picked up the same chair next to Felix. “Actually, it should only take one hit!” he said with a smile.
With that, he raised the chair and slammed it against Harry’s left leg.
Bang!
The chair broke, and so did Harry’s leg.
“Arghhhh!”
Harry’s wails of pain resonated across the entire private room.
It was much louder than the blows he got from his father.
Nathan rubbed his hands while gazing at the man screaming on the floor. “That was for leering at my wife. As for the issue with your fake liquor, I’ll leave it to the Mayor.”
Russell Crow quickly took the opportunity to speak. “It’s against the law to sell fake liquor. Therefore, the Moreish shall be put on indefinite hiatus.”
Indefinitely hiatus essentially meant everything was over for the restaurant.
Everyone was shocked that the Mayor was giving such a strict penalty.
Russell felt he hadn’t done enough, so he added, “Secondly, I noticed that several shareholders of the Moreish are officials of the city, including myself. Such an incident will lead to vile outcomes. Hence, I want all children of officials to quit the company and not get involved in the management of this restaurant. They will also be subject to strict self-evaluation during the weekly meeting!”
After finishing, Russell and his team of subordinates gazed at Nathan expectantly. “Are you happy with these arrangements, Mr. Cross?”
Nathan nodded. “Do as you say!”
With that, he left with his family, Luther Chuss and William Harrison. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Penny couldn’t help but ask after exiting the restaurant, “How did you do it, Nathan? How could you have summoned the Mayor and the rest of them over with just a phone call? They were even being so nice to you and took care of the matter right away.”
Luther Chuss and William Harrison gazed at Nathan, feeling just as curious.
