Brother Gage gave the order: "Go!"
Ten Southeast Asian masters swarmed in!
Bang bang bang!
Crack crack crack!
The sounds of intense fighting echoed through the parking lot.
"Damn it, these ten people are definitely extraordinary!"
As soon as they started fighting, Jeff realized that even if he could defeat these ten men, he would be skinned alive.
Brother Gage watched their fight and became excited:
"Jeff, you're really something, kid. These are ten henchmen handpicked by Master Liu. How about this: if you kneel down, acknowledge me as your elder brother, and follow me from now on, I'll spare you. What do you say?"
"You're not worthy!" Jeff replied.
Brother Gage laughed, picked up his phone, and called Liu Zhengkun: "Master Liu, you need to send ten more people over. These ten will probably be crippled by Jeff in another ten minutes."
"What?"
At that moment, Liu Zhengkun had just finished playing chess with Butler Vance and was very excited after hearing this:
"There are actually experts in the country who can take on ten opponents at once! I must recruit such talents!"
Liu Zhengkun thought that if he could recruit such a top-notch fighter and present him as a gift to Master Fang, Master Fang would surely reward him!
"Tell me your location, and I'll be right there!"
Liu Zhengkun rushed over, and when he arrived at the parking lot, the ten men he had sent first were already lying on the ground.
Jeff's clothes were somewhat damaged, but he was unharmed.
"Master Liu! Kill that brat!"
Knowing that Liu Zhengkun was Brother Gage's boss, Brandon quickly went up to flatter him.
Brother Gage, covering his face which had just been swollen from being slapped by Liu Zhengkun, said, "Master Liu, I told you long ago that ten people weren't enough. Just send a hundred people to beat him up."
"Get out of the way—let me see what this Jeff looks like!"
Liu Zhengkun pushed Brother Gage aside and walked straight toward Jeff.
Jeff was also getting anxious. Although he had subdued all ten men, it had exhausted most of his energy.
If there were ten more people like that, Jeff estimated that he wouldn't be able to defeat them.
Seeing Jeff panting heavily, Brandon laughed loudly from the side:
"Haha, Jeff, tired? There are still ten here—keep fighting! If you win, there are eighty more outside! If you know what's good for you, hurry up and kneel down and apologize to us!"
Liu Zhengkun approached Jeff step by step, but Jeff showed no intention of begging for mercy.
Jeff had already decided that to catch the thief, he should first catch the kingpin. Once Liu Zhengkun got close to him, he would use the blade hidden in his hand to subdue Liu Zhengkun.
As Liu Zhengkun drew closer to Jeff, the fear on his face grew stronger.
"Jeff... it's actually..."
Upon seeing Jeff, Liu Zhengkun immediately knelt down and cried out, "Young Master!"
Jeff looked exactly like the photo of the Third Young Master that Butler Vance had sent to Liu Zhengkun!
At this moment, Brandon, Brother Gage, and the others were all stunned.
"Master Liu, what are you saying? He's our family's son-in-law—why are you calling him 'Young Master'?" Brandon asked.
Brother Gage was also puzzled. "Did you mistake someone for someone else?"
Ignoring the two men, Liu Zhengkun respectfully looked at Jeff: "Young Master, I am Master Fang's subordinate. For what happened today, I, Liu Zhengkun, deserve to die a hundred times over. Please punish me, Young Master!"
Jeff then realized that they were Butler Vance's subordinates.
After saying that, he called Brother Gage over: "You good-for-nothing, why don't you come over here and kneel down to the Young Master!"
"Huh? I kneel down to him?" Brother Gage was stunned for a moment.
Enraged, Liu Zhengkun stood up and slapped him across the face: "Kneel down! Kneel a hundred times, and if you don't do it even once, start over!"
Brother Gage then realized the seriousness of the matter and dared not hesitate any longer. He immediately kowtowed and cried out, "Brother Jeff, Young Master Sterling, I, Brother Gage, have offended you. Please forgive me."
Brandon was stunned. The big boss of Riverforge, Brother Gage, was actually kowtowing to Jeff and begging for mercy!
"Alright, stop kowtowing. If someone sees us, they'll think I'm some kind of gangster boss."
This was the parking lot downstairs from their company, and Jeff was worried about the negative impact.
Jeff said, "Brother Gage, there's no need for you to kowtow. You just need to explain to the Harper family that I didn't sell you the watch."
Brother Gage quickly replied, "Yes, I will tell the Harper family right away that it was Brandon who instructed me to do this."
"Hey, Brother Gage, you can't betray me!" Brandon tried to grab Brother Gage, but Brother Gage punched him to the ground.
At this moment, Liu Zhengkun walked over with a murderous look on his face: "So you're the one who framed our Young Master? Guards, throw him into the river!"
Knowing what kind of person Liu Zhengkun was, Brandon was so frightened that he immediately begged Jeff for mercy, kneeling in front of Jeff and hugging Jeff's leg: "Brother-in-law, we are family—you can't let him treat me like this!"
Jeff kicked Brandon away, yelling, "Who the hell is your brother-in-law!"
Brandon continued to crawl over and hug Jeff's leg: "Brother Jeff, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. I can offer you my sister. Don't you like her very much?"
Jeff felt angered and slapped Brandon across the face: "I've always treated her like a younger sister—when did I ever like her!"
Brandon continued, "Then how about I arrange a family dinner tonight, get Emily drunk, and send her to your place?"
Jeff slapped him again: "You beast! Emily and Jessica are both your sisters, and Jessica is your biological sister. You actually gave them away as gifts? Do you have any humanity left?"
"Besides, I've been in your Harper family for three years. If I had such thoughts, I would have had countless opportunities. Would I need your help?"
Brandon dared not refute Jeff's reprimand.
Seeing that Brandon was truly afraid, and considering that he was the only son of the Harper family, Jeff couldn't let the Harper family line die out.
Jeff said, "Brandon, I can let you go, but when you go back, you must explain this matter of framing me to the Harper family."
"Yes, yes, thank you, Brother Jeff." Brandon got up and quickly left.
After Brandon left, Liu Zhengkun knelt down before Jeff again: "Young Master, I have brought a hundred thugs from Southeast Asia. I am willing to offer them all to you for your use!"
Jeff nodded. These foreign thugs were still somewhat useful.
For example, dealing with Victor Lang, the "Riverforge catering tycoon."
...
Sterling Heights Villa.
"Brandon, what happened to the injury on your face? Did that beast Jeff beat you up again?"
Old Madam Harper was heartbroken to see that Brandon's injuries had worsened.
Brandon quickly denied it: "I accidentally crashed it while driving—it has nothing to do with Jeff."
Then he looked at Old Madam Harper and Robert's family and said, "Grandma, Second Uncle, actually, Jeff didn't steal that Richard Mille watch. I took it and framed Jeff."
"What?" Old Madam Harper exclaimed in surprise.
Robert and Susan were also surprised.
Old Madam Harper was still very protective of her grandson: "So what if he's wronged? Jeff isn't exactly clean either. Even if he didn't steal from my house, he might have stolen from someone else. Otherwise, where would he get the money to stay in a five-star hotel?"
"By the way, Brandon, did you see Chairman Sterling at Horizon Group today?"
Brandon shook his head.
Old Madam Harper looked puzzled: "What exactly does this Chairman Sterling mean? Does he only agree to talk if I, this old lady, personally intervene?"
At this moment, Emily suddenly spoke up: "Grandma, why don't you let me try?"
