Chapter 239
“Ah! Lynch is beating people up!” In the crowd, an unbelievably sharp voice suddenly rang out.
“How dare he! He’s the one that caused our stores to be sealed shut, and now he has the nerve to lay his hands on others! Get him!”
“If you want us to die, don’t think that you can live! Get him!”
Hearing that in succession, multiple store merchants saw red one by one.
The Tower was sealed shut and the large amount of funds they had invested was gone. Some of the store merchants took out loans or put their houses up for collateral to get the money to purchase large amounts of stock. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Thinking of how they had lost everything and how the lives of their family would go down the drain before their eyes, many store merchants were furious and looked livid.
“Get him!”
Someone called out, and it was like a barrel of gasoline had been lit. The air at the entrance of the Tower instantly became hysterical.
Faced with the crowd of raging store merchants, Richard’s face went pale. “Don’t be too hasty. It’s not as serious as you think it is! Mr. Lynch and I will definitely…”
“You bastard! I’ll kill you!”
Before Richard could finish speaking, he heard a vicious voice in his ear. Suddenly, a fist appeared before his eyes. With a thump, it slammed hard into the bridge of his nose.
“Mr. Ramirez!”
A few steps away, Franklin’s face changed, and he cried out loud as he saw Richard being engulfed by the crowd in the blink of an eye.
“Mr. Lynch, let’s leave.” Ocho, who was protecting him from the front, had a slightly cold expression as he saw the crowd that was surging over.
“Lynch, I’m not done with you!” A fist came at him following the loud outcry.
With an icy expression, Ocho took one step forward and threw a punch. Bam. A figure flew and fell heavily into the surging crowd.
While the crowd was in a mess, Ocho grabbed Franklin’s arm and pushed their way out of the crowd.
At this time, a black Land Rover stopped hurriedly by the side of Oriental Tower.
Seeing his father being pursued by a crowd of people, Jacob got out of the car in an instant and rushed forward in a grave manner.
Raising his head to see his son, Franklin panicked. He waved his hand and cried out in a rush, “Jay, leave!”
With a dark face and heavy coldness at the tip of his brows, Jacob went around his father and blocked the crowd that was surging forward. “Everyone, stop!”
While he cried out coldly, wisps of dense air surged toward the crowd of people like waves of a tide.
The people at the front were first to feel the force of his strength that was as imposing as the mountains and as vast as the sea. Instantly, their four limbs became numb, and their faces paled. It was as if a wild, giant creature had suddenly appeared in front of them with its mouth open wide. It was terrifying, and they were beside themselves.
Following that, the rest of the crowd felt it as well. Their four limbs went stiff, and their faces paled.
The bystanders around them saw the strange scene. Many running forward aggressively suddenly stopped moving, as if they had been hit with an immobilization talisman.
“What’s wrong? Why aren’t they running?”
“Who’s that young man? Why did all the store merchants in the Tower stop moving when he cried “Are they shooting a movie? Where’s the camera?”
Amongst the faint buzzing of discussions, Jacob turned around to look at his father. “Dad, are you hurt?”
“I… I’m fine!” Franklin shook his head while gasping hard for air.
After pausing for a while, Franklin couldn’t be bothered to wonder why those people stopped because his son shouted at them. He looked at the crowd behind them and his eyes were filled with worry. “Mr. Ramirez has fallen on the ground because he was trying to stop those… those people!”
“Dad, it’s dangerous here. Get in the car.” After saying that, Jacob made his way to the crowd.
