Chapter 23

Wilbur said slowly, “Yes, speaking. What’s the matter?”

“Head up north to Copperhead Factory. There’s something I need your help with,” Faye said.

Wilbur frowned. He immediately understood that something had happened to Faye. “Got it. I’ll be right

there. I’ll take care of it.”

At the same time, over at house number one.

Benjamin ordered the personal chef to prepare a hearty meal. He then said to his son, “Invite Wilbur

over. I’d like to have a drink with him tonight.”

Gordon nodded and headed out toward Wilbur’s house.

At the factory, Faye hung up the call and let out a deep sigh.

She could tell that Wilbur knew something had happened to her. That was because she had never

addressed Wilbur by his full name in regular conversations before. Moreover, Wilbur’s response was

clear that he wanted her to let him handle it.

She just hoped that Wilbur understood how dire the situation was and made sufficient preparation

instead of coming alone.

Just then, Lightning Hank glanced at Stanley. “When’s the money coming in?”

Stanley turned to Faye and shouted at her, “When are you sending the money

y over?”

Faye said in a low voice, “As you know, I might be able to move Cape’s funds around, but one billion

dollars isn’t a small amount. Ill need another two directors to sign their approval along with mine. The

earliest will have to be tomorrow morning.”

Stanley knew that, of course. He just needed Lightning Hank to understand as well.

Taking a sip of his beer, Stanley turned to Lightning Hank with a flattering smile. “That’s what’s

happening here, Big Brother. Don’t worry. Now that we have her, we’ll get the money for sure.”

Lightning Hank placed a slice of lamb into the sizzling grill with a sneer. “Do you think I’m worried? I run

Seechertown. You came looking for me. I don’t care who you guys are, but that money is mine one way

or another. Otherwise, you’re all dead.”

“Yes, of course,” Stanley said smilingly.

Meanwhile, Faye was getting more and more worried.

Although she was a businesswoman, she had also heard of Lightning Hank before.

Rumors had it that he had joined a gang in Seechertown at a very young age. He later formed his own

Black Tiger Gang with his power and courage alone and ran the underground scene.

It was said that Lightning Hank had eyes everywhere, from the army to the mafia. No one dared to

mess with him.

Faye had never imagined that she would end up in his hands.

The Cape Consortium was one of the top dogs of Seechertown, but the Black Tiger Gang was not to

be underestimated either. It was also a force to be reckoned with.

Time ticked by slowly. Although Faye maintained a calm expression, she was actually panicking inside.

Lightning Hank ate slowly. He was calm and in control of the situation.

Just then, footsteps could be heard coming from outside. Faye’s chest tightened.

Wilbur was seen being dragged by two burly men into the factory.

Faye

saw that Wilbur was alone and panicked at once. “Why did you come here alone?”

Wilbur saw that Faye was all right and smiled. “I can handle them by myself.”

Faye sighed helplessly. Stanley was definitely going to kill Wilbur for what he had done to him. What

should she do now?

The sight of Wilbur made Stanley perk up at once. He got up and walked to Wilbur with a murderous

expression. “You gigolo, Miss Yves fired me because of you! What are you going to do about that?”

He glanced smugly at the several dozen accomplices behind him as he spoke.

Wilbur said slowly. “Let Faye go before you screw up further. Il let this slide if you guys apologize to

her.”
