Chapter 80 A Life for a Life. That’s Fair
“You! You’re...”
At first, Morton Miller was annoyed but secretly relieved to hear Grayson Miller’s voice. But the next
moment, he heard Sean’s voice and suddenly became nervous again.
Especially what Sean said!
Five years!
Morton Miller was not familiar with Sean’s voice, and after five years, he didn’t recognize Sean’s
identity. However, five years was a very special time.
More importantly, he just found out yesterday afternoon that Sean got out of jail and he was worried
about it!
So, suddenly, he thought of Sean!
“Sean Mason!”
Almost at the same time, being trampled by Sean, Grayson Miller figured out who Sean was. Two of
them, one at the scene and the other on the phone, called out his name in unison.
Mason!
Greek gifts!
Knew his father, Morton Miller!
Five years!
Putting all these information together, and even if Grayson Miller was dull enough, he should be able to
figure something out.
“You are the Young Mr. Mason of the Mason family in Capital City!”
When he looked at Sean, Grayson Miller suddenly realized everything. Sean didn’t take money from
people and work for other people, but he came here to avenge him!
No wonder!
No wonder his father, Morton Miller, had told him again and again last night that he must stay at home
for the next few days. He told him not to go out at will, and he must have bodyguards to follow close to
protect him!
He didn’t understand, and he didn’t even care!
He understood now, but it was too late to regret!
Sean was back!
To him!
No wonder Sean gave him the cold shoulder from the moment he met him. He looked at him with a
faint hatred. He just said he and Sean had no animosity, which was ridiculous now!
“Yeah, it’s me.”
Sean looked down at Grayson Miller at his feet and spoke to Morton Miller on the other end of his
phone, “Mr. Miller, I’m glad to know you’re alive, because I’m going to take your life myself.”
His voice was flat, but every word was murderous!
“Where are you?”
Morton Miller was scared to death. He ignored Sean’s threat and said quickly, “What did you do to my
son? I’m warning you, don’t hurt him! Otherwise, …”
“Otherwise, Mr. Miller, what can you do? Setting me up again?”
Sean snorted and the soles of his feet gave a slight tug.
“Ouch!”
Grayson Miller, at his feet, let out a cry so piercing that Morton Miller could hear it through his cell
phone.
That was Sean’s response to Morton Miller!
Were you going to threaten me in return?
Sorry, I was not afraid.
You asked me to not hurt your son, so I would show you how I hurt him. If you were not happy about it,
come and bite me!
“You!”
Morton Miller’s voice shook with rage, but he didn’t want to provoke Sean at this point, so he had to
swallow his anger and clench his teeth, asking, “Sean Mason, what do you want from me?”
“I was the one who hurt you! This has nothing to do with Grayson. He’s innocent!”
“If you’re a man at all, hit me!”
Father’s love was as great as a mountain.
When it came to family, there was no difference between good guys and bad guys.
“You can rest assured that you’ll get that, too.”
Sean snorted, “But until then, a life for a life. Give me my daughter, and your son lives, or he dies!”
“Your daughter?”
Morton Miller was confused, “What happened to your daughter?”
“You’d better not test my patience by playing dumb with me. You’re not doing your son any good by
doing this…” with that, the strength in Sean’s feet increased a bit.
Grayson Miller was red-faced, veins in his neck were bulging and his insides were churning. He
couldn’t help it and spouted a mouthful of blood on the spot, wetting Sean’s trousers.
“Don’t do that!”
At the sound, Morton Miller’s heart shook so violently that he almost went crazy. “Let’s get this straight.
What happened to your daughter? What does it have to do with me?”
Sean said coldly, “This morning, she was kidnapped from kindergarten, and you three families did it,
right?”
“Kidnap?”
Morton Miller exclaimed, “It’s impossible! I didn’t do it, I swear! I only found out about your release Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
yesterday afternoon, how could I send someone to kidnap your daughter today? There must be some
misunderstanding!”
Misunderstanding?
Of course Sean didn’t believe it.
But Sean didn’t have anything to pin down the three families, so he had to play the fool, “I want my
daughter, Phyllis Moore, not your excuses and explanations.”
“A life for a life, that’s fair!”
“It’s half past three in the afternoon. At 5:00, I will be waiting for you at my mother’s grave in Peace
Cemetery in western Hilshire! I also have Michael Taylor’s son Caleb Taylor. Make sure he comes with
Connor Scott! My daughter’s life for your sons’!”
“If you don’t come, or if I don’t see my daughter Phyllis, then tonight, I will wipe out all three of your
families! Every one of you must be buried with my mother and daughter!”
Sean’s voice was eerie and scary, like the death knell from hell!
Translation, “I don’t care if you sent someone to kidnap my daughter Phyllis. I’m sure you did. There’s
no proof, and I don’t need proof!”
“Give me my daughter, and your son will live, or tonight I will wipe out three great families!”
Bossy!
Bossy and unreasonable!
Without giving Morton Miller a chance to explain or bargain, he tossed Grayson Miller’s phone into the
nearby pool and it sank.
Grayson Miller heard Sean and Morton Miller’s conversation, and his face turned grey!
He knew there was no way to ease their blood feud with Sean. Only blood and life could resolve it!
So, he collapsed at Sean’s feet like a dead dog, unable to beg for mercy.
“Mr. Mason!”
Just then, the gang leader came running with a group of his boys. Caleb Taylor, wearing nothing but a
garish speedo, was being held by two thugs, “Mr. Mason, well, this bastard was just trying to escape,
and we happened to see him when he just arrived at the first floor of the hall, and he was caught by
us.”
“Mr. Mason, do as you please!”
The gang leader was beaming with pride. In the old days, he could only flatter the Three Golden Young
Men. And now, Sean was so powerful that he had instantly strengthened his confidence and decided to
turn his back on them.
Hence the present scene.
Sean asked, “You’re Leo, right?”
“Yes.”
The gang leader nodded his head, “Yes. It’s easy to remember, and to write.”
Sean rolled his eyes, “In the future, if you want to hang out with me, cut your hair, and don’t bully others
and commit illegal acts.”
Leo grabbed Caleb Taylor at this point and offered him up to Sean, apparently wanting to defect. Sean,
on the other hand, couldn’t do a lot of things at once by himself. He really needed a couple of younger
guys to help him.
“Yes! Okay!”
Leo was overjoyed and immediately looked back at the group of bullies behind him and swore, “What
the fuck are you doing? Say hello to Mr. Mason! From now on, Mr. Mason is our boss!”
“Hello, Mr. Mason…”
When Sean came over earlier, they saw Leo being very deferential to Sean and had doubts about it.
Now, they’d seen what Sean could do, and they were convinced!
Sean rolled his eyes.
The thugs were immediately silenced by fear.
Caleb Taylor was busy running away. Now Grayson Miller knew Sean’s identity, but he didn’t. When he
saw Leo and others betrayed him, he flew into a rage and struggled to swear, “You shameless sons of
bitches! How dare you set me up! Just wait! The whole south of the city is my territory, if I survive today,
I will…”
Bam!
In the middle of his rant, Leo rushed over and kicked Caleb Taylor hard in the stomach. He exulted,
“Noisy! How dare you throw your weight around Mr. Mason! If Mr. Mason gives the word, I’ll kill you
right now.”
“You!”
He kicked Caleb Taylor to the ground.
Leo, who had been as humble as a dog to him, now had the nerve to attack him?
The kick to Caleb Taylor’s stomach was more like stepping on his ego and sense of superiority. It was
an unspeakable shame to him!
“What are you staring at?”
Leo was undaunted by Caleb Taylor’s fierce gaze. He said in his high voice, “One more look, and I’ll rip
your eyes out!”
Leo was so proud!
His former boss, who treated him like a dog, was now attacked by him and drenched in his own blood.
This huge psychological contrast really made him feel good!
The angrier and more humiliated Caleb Taylor was, the better he enjoyed it!
“You wait and see.”
Caleb Taylor even wanted to kill, but he had no choice. So he swallowed his anger and looked away
from Leo to Sean, snorting, “Mr. Mason, right?”
“My dad is Michael Taylor!”
“I advise you not to take things too far! South of town, if you mess with the three big families, you won’t
get out of Hilshire unscathed, even if you’re an out-of-town rich man!”
He was smart!
Since Leo turned around and accepted Sean as the boss, he directly threatened Leo’s boss. As soon
as Sean gave in, he would see what the others would do!
Leo and others were also looking at Sean, looking a little nervous.
They were afraid that Sean would not be able to resist Caleb Taylor. And Grayson Miller was looking at
Caleb Taylor with an almost desperate look, like he was an idiot who didn’t even know he was in a
corner.
“You’re threatening me, aren’t you?”
After making eye contact with Caleb Taylor, Sean smiled and shook his head, saying, “Sorry, I am
afraid of everything except threats from others. I didn’t want to do anything to you two.”
“But now, after your threats, I’ve suddenly changed my mind.”
He looked at Leo and motioned, “Go get a knife, cut off one of their hands, and then go to the Taylor
Family and the Miller Family, and give it to Michael Taylor and Morton Miller, and say this is my greeting
gift to them…”
His words shocked everyone!
