Chapter 922
Still, some uncertainty lingered in the group. After all, what they were hearing sounded a little too exaggerated.
Charlotte shook her head and said seriously, "Quit joking around. I really think we should call for help, just in case there's trouble."
With that, she quickly pulled out her phone and made a call.
Although she knew Jack could fight, she still hoped it wouldn't come to that. What if he got hurt? Even if he took down all of them, the slightest injury wouldn't be worth it.
Besides, Nelson and the others clearly came for revenge. After suffering that kind of humiliation, there was no way they'd show mercy if things turned physical.
The bodyguards backing Nelson, Wilhelmina, and Cody were former military or trained professionals. Right now, they were here as enforcers, helping their bosses to take revenge.
It was better to be safe than sorry. Charlotte decided it was best to bring in reinforcements too.
Neil thought about it and agreed. Why should they take a risk if they already had the upper hand?
Just as he was about to step back, Nelson suddenly waved his hand and bellowed, "There they are. Surround them!"
Suddenly, more than a dozen bodyguards rushed forward, encircling Jack and his group and cutting off their escape.
But Jack and the others didn't panic. They simply stopped and waited to see what Nelson and Wilhelmina were planning.
Nelson strutted forward, casually lit a cigarette, and asked, "What's wrong? Not running anymore? I'd like to see where you think you can escape to now."
He seemed confident, as if Jack and the others were already trapped.
Charlotte hung up the phone and asked sternly, "What exactly are you trying to do?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Nelson gave an exaggerated laugh and turned to Cody. "Why don't you tell her what we're here for?"
Cody shed his earlier fear and barked arogantly, "Weren't you all acting tough earlier? I warned you that if you hurt us, we'd make you pay back a hundred times over! Now, all of you, get on your knees!"
With the bodyguards standing behind him, Cody was puffed up and determined to get revenge.
However, Jack's group remained still.
Neil crossed his arms, smiling. "You're the first people in Alnewgo to say that to us. Impressive."
"Are you kneeling or not?" Cody snapped, enraged. He suddenly sprinted forward and kicked toward Neil's stomach.
But Neil, though chubby, was surprisingly agile. He dodged the kick with ease and used the momentum to knock Cody off balance.
Cody missed completely and stumbled straight into a wall, face bloodied. It was a sorry sight.
"Get them! Beat them up! I don't care what happens!" he shouted furiously after getting up.
Cody wanted Jack and the others to be crippled and suffer from broken limbs, even if it meant facing consequences later After alt he was wealthy and could settle the matter with money.
The bodyguards charged after receiving Cody's instructions.
Neil, who was at the front, was the first to get hit. A punch landed squarely on his nose, and blood
started to flow Though he landed on the ground, he didn't make a sound
After all, Neil trained in the military before, and he wasn't going to fold easily. He
wiped his face and got back up, ready to fight.
He couldn't back down. Otherwise, he'd bring shame to the Grant family.
