Chapter 159
"The Panther Gang… Why do they obey Master Fox?"
Seated in one of the Panther Gang's luxurious cars, the West family members were utterly baffled. This was the most powerful gang in Honora, a force so dominant that even the most prominent families trod carefully. For a small family like the Wests, provoking them was unthinkable. They had assumed Dustin lacked strong backing, but they had just witnessed the gang leader personally greet him.
It was hard to imagine the influence and power Dustin wielded to command such respect from Blake. Even harder to comprehend was Blake's obedience despite Dustin having killed his nephew. Nothing made sense.
Still in disbelief, the Panther Gang's convoy arrived outside the Aquila family villa. Inside, Brennan received news of their arrival.
"Blake and his gang members are here?" Brennan was surprised. "He arrived quickly. Devon was his beloved nephew; he always pampered him. Since Devon's death, it's understandable he wouldn't remain idle. With the Panther Gang and Miss Winter's object, killing Dustin Fox will be easy!"
Brennan sneered and ordered his servant to welcome Blake. Soon, he received more news.
"What? Blake brought Dustin and the West family members? Good! Excellent!" He excitedly rose from his seat. "I'll greet them!"
As Brennan stepped into the garden, Dustin and his entourage entered through the gates.
"Blake, well done. You're a fine uncle to Devon!" Brennan praised.
Brennan looked at Dustin and frowned. "Why isn't he cuffed? He's no ordinary person," he said.
Blake sneered. "Order: surround the Aquila family villa and allow no escape!" he barked to his gang. "Yes, sir!"
The order was swiftly relayed, and the Panther Gang encircled the villa. Brennan's face froze.
"Blake, what's the meaning of this?!" he yelled.
"Today, the Panther Gang destroys the Aquila family for Mr. Fox!" Blake said coldly.
Brennan's face changed. He was shocked. He'd assumed Blake was there to help him, but Blake was on Dustin's side! He couldn't understand it. Blake's sister had married him; Devon was his nephew; the Aquila family and the Panther Gang had a long-standing relationship. How could they betray him? Had Blake lost his mind?
"Blake! You…" he yelled.
"Save your breath. The Aquila family has committed atrocities for years. You should have been destroyed long ago. Your time is up," Blake interrupted unfeelingly.
Brennan fumed. "Fine! I never expected you to become a lapdog for the surviving Fox descendant. I'll destroy your gang along with him!"
Brennan waved, and several intimidating figures appeared. Lucius and Blake's faces changed.
"Ninth-grade fighters!" they exclaimed in shock.
These were highly capable fighters. Neither Lucius nor Blake were at that level.
"How is this possible? When did the Aquila family acquire ninth-grade fighters?" Blake was incredulous.
