Chapter 341 Just Say Itโs Done
After dealing with some people who needed a lesson, Nathaniel strolled over to where Maggie was standing.
Out of nowhere, the quiet and mysterious Nolan popped up, sporting a cap. It felt like he materialized out of thin air, swiftly taking down a bunch of guys in no time.
โWho are you? Which gang do you roll with? Do you know who my boss is?โ a guy with blond hair yelled, his eyes black and blue, one puffier than a bun, looking pretty ridiculous.
Maggie couldnโt help but chuckle, nodding towards the thug lying on the ground on the other side. โIsnโt that your boss over there?โ
Another thug on the side, nursing his broken leg, sweat dripping down his forehead, grimaced as he said, โTony, call Draco!โ
The lead thug, whose arm was dislocated by Nathael, struggled to rise from the ground, his face twisted with malice. Clutching his arm tightly, he glared fiercely at Nathael and Maggie, looking like he was ready to devour them.
Unfortunately, his little moves werenโt cutting it.
He was barely getting up when Nolan kicked his leg, making him stumble and fall to his knees. โIโll kill you!โ With a threat, he whipped out a knife and charged at Maggie and Nathael.
Maggie remained calm.
Without missing a beat, Nolan intervened, grabbing the manโs collar and pulling him back. With a swift move, he threw the man over his shoulder, slamming him onto the ground.
With a loud โboom,โ the old floor cracked open a bit, and the air was filled with the manโs painful cries.
Fed up, Nolan kicked him in the chest, then grabbed the stick they dropped earlier and broke the manโs right leg without hesitation.
Suddenly, besides the manโs screams, it got quiet. Everyone around was shocked, swallowing nervously, not daring to make a sound.
Tony realized he had messed with the wrong person that day.
He never imagined a woman would be such a hard nut to crack!
Maggie took a couple of steps forward and offered some advice. โYou know, maybe itโs time to turn things around. With your intelligence, youโre not cut out for this kind of trouble.โ
She hadnโt come across many who would pull out a knife and give a warning before a fight.
Usually, those who were truly vengeful would strike from the shadows, not so openly.
But then again, if he had real ambition, he wouldnโt still be just a small- time troublemaker.
He closed his eyes and tilted his neck, resigned to his fate.
He lay there on the ground, covered in blood, looking pretty disheveled.
Maggie couldnโt help but chuckle and asked, โWhat? Not gonna call Draco?โ
At the mention of it, Tony seemed hesitant.
Nathael looked down at him and said in a low voice, โMake the call. Let him know.โ
Tony instinctively glanced up, his vision slightly blurred from the injuries. Despite that, amidst the dim light, he could still see his cold and stern face.
Tony felt a pang in his heart. If he hadnโt experienced it firsthand, it would be hard to imagine that such a handsome man could be so ruthless and decisive.
During the fight, Tonyโs phone got smashed, and Nolan dug out another phone from someone else and tossed it to him.
Tony glanced at Maggie and Nathael before slowly reaching for the phone.
Maggie narrowed her eyes and asked him gently, โDo you know who hired you?โ
Tony shook his head. โDraco approached us. We just do what weโre paid for.โ
โTell him itโs all sorted,โ Maggie instructed.
Tony hesitated for a moment, feeling a shiver down his spine as he met the womanโs cheerful gaze.
A few minutes later, the call connected.
โHey, Draco, everythingโs done,โ Tony said, gritting his teeth to hide his pain, trying not to give anything away.
There was a brief silence on the other end before a chuckle came through. โWell, well, arenโt you a quick one? Got it done in no time?โ
Tony closed his eyes and replied, โThat girl was tough as nails. You said to rough her up a bit and snap some photos, so I didnโt lay a heavy hand. Thatโs why it was quick.โ
โYou got such a good opportunity, but you donโt even take a taste. What a waste,โ the greasy voice on the other end said, dripping with disdain.
Tony nodded and chuckled. โWell, you didnโt give the order, and we didnโt dare to. This girl is drop-dead gorgeous, like a goddess. Even prettier than those movie stars, by a mile. With your approval, weโre good to go!โ
As he spoke, the one on the other end seemed more intrigued. โIs she really that gorgeous?โ
โYouโve seen the photos, right?โ Tony showed a spark of intelligence, catching onto Maggieโs plan with his words.
He didnโt feel guilty about betraying Draco.
They werenโt entirely under his control. They just led connections. Over the years, theyโd been squeezed dry by Draco, and the money they got was little.
If they could teach him a lesson now, it wouldnโt be a bad thing.
โAs long as you havenโt let her slip away. Bring her to me, I want to see this beauty for myself,โ Draco sounded eager, giving Tony an address.
After hanging up, Tonyโs throat felt dry. He looked nervously at Maggie, avoiding Nathaelโs gaze.
Maggie squatted in front of him and said softly, โYou might be dumb, but sometimes you surprise me with how smart you can be.โ
Tony smiled but remained silent.
Maggie stood up and turned to Nathael, saying, โLetโs go check out this Draco or whatever his name is. Letโs see where they came from.โ
โSure,โ Nathael replied.
A moment later, Alex pulled up. Maggie was about to get in with Nathael when she suddenly remembered they hadnโt paid for the flowers yet.
Turning to the startled and uneasy old lady and the scattered flowers on the ground, she called out, โHey, Tony, you have money? Pay for the flowers!โ
Tony was momentarily stunned. At this point, he could barely move, relying entirely on his two lackeys. Listening to Maggieโs words, Tony felt more frustrated than he ever had. But to make matters worse, the young, silent killer on the side kept giving him the eye.
Tony gasped for breath, enduring the pain, and turned to the people around him. โGot any cash? Bring it out!โ
In response, the group quickly scraped together a few thousand bucks and handed it to the old lady.
Seeing the money, the old lady wanted to say something but didnโt have the guts to.
Maggie grinned and said gently, โYou keep that. If these guys dare to bother you again, you know who to find.โ
She pointed to Nolan.
โNo, no! We wonโt cause any trouble. Donโt worry!โ The group nodded and bowed obediently.
Maggie laughed, ignoring them, and got into the car with Nathael. Meanwhile, Nolan calmly hopped into the van. Taking a seat in the middle of the second row, he made the thugs in the van visibly uneasy, as if he were some kind of bad omen.
