Chapter 44 Happier When I play with You

Reuben’s expression changed slightly when he saw Rex and the others. “Rex, why are you here?”

Although he had just come back not long ago, he still recognized Rex, a famous gangster.

Rex ignored Reuben.

He walked to Joshua and said respectfully, “Mr. Palmer, my men have blocked all the entrances and exits of the nightclub. No one is allowed to enter without your orders!”

Joshua nodded and said, ‘Send someone to take my wife to the hospital and take care of her!”

Rex did not dare to delay any time.

Two short-haired girls came out of the crowd and took Pamela from Joshua’s arms.

The two carefully supported Pamela out of the private room door and left. A few more men followed and escorted her to the hospital!

At this time, the atmosphere in the room was quite tense.

Reuben was sweating.

He did not understand why such a famous gangster like Rex would respect Joshua like this.

He was annoyed by the confusion and pointed at Joshua, “What tricks are you playing again? Don’t think that you can scare me just because you called Rex here! In my eyes, you, Joshua, will always be trash! I can step on you however I want!”

Rex was quite famous in New York, but the Morton Group was not to be underestimated.

In Reuben’s opinion, even Rex had to think carefully before messing up with him. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Moreover, he did not believe that Rex would break all ties with the Morton family because of Joshua!

“Step on me however you want?”

Joshua walked towards Reuben.

Clack clack/

Reuben felt inexplicable panic upon hearing the sound.

But of course, he would not show it on his face. He managed to calm down and shouted, ‘Joshua! Stand still!”

Joshua turned a deaf ear.

As they got closer and closer, the coldness in Joshua’s eyes turned more and more obvious.

Suddenly!

Joshua made his move!

Before Reuben could react, Joshua grabbed his index finger.

Joshua did it quickly.

He forcefully took Reuben’s index finger downward.

Click!

There appeared a clear sound.

Reuben’s right index finger fractured on the spot!

“Ah!”

Reuben wailed.

Joshua released his hand.

Then Joshua kicked Reuben’s abdomen.

Reuben was half kneeling on the ground.

Due to the pain, his entire face was distorted and his eyes were red as he cursed, ‘Fuck you, Joshua! I’ll kill you today! Ouch…”

Joshua looked down at Reuben indifferently. “I am right here!”

Reuben was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He turned to the bodyguards behind him and shouted, “What the hell are you all standing there for? Why don’t you kill him?, Just peel his skin off and send him to hell!”

“This…”

The bodyguards looked at each other and hesitated.

They were not afraid of Joshua, but they were afraid of Rex and his subordinates!

Rex’s reputation already brought them great pressure.

And today, Rex brought a lot of people here!

The bodyguards would be no match for Rex and his men if there was a fight.

They didn’t want to court death.

Reuben saw the bodyguards hesitate and quickly turned to look at Rex. Reuben said, “Rex, let me make it clear that what happened tonight has nothing to do with you. As long as you don’t interfere, no matter what benefits Joshua has given you, I can give you more. I hope that you can think carefully about who is more important, he or 1.”

Rex remained silent.

Reuben was delighted, thinking that Rex had agreed.

He shouted at the bodyguards, “Did you see that? Rex didn’t even make a move! Why are you all still standing there?”

With this…

Without hesitation, the bodyguards got prepared and rushed to deal with Joshua!

But!

Unexpectedly, before they could make a move, Rex waved his hands.

Rex’s men rushed forward from behind in a large group.

Most of Reuben’s bodyguards were hired. Their main job was to scare others. They didn’t have much

experience in fighting.

But Rex’s men were different.

Each and every one of them had become a gangster at a young age. They were experienced in fighting.

They fought almost every day.

What’s more, the bodyguards had no weapons. However, Rex’s men were either holding batons or wooden sticks!

A fight started.

Crack crack

Not long after..

The bodyguards were all lying on the ground!

A complete defeat!

They all lay on the ground in a miserable state.

Reuben half knelt on the ground, looking at this scene in horror.

After a long time, he finally woke up from his shock.

He couldn’t believe it and questioned Rex, “Rex! Why are you helping him? You… Do you know who you are going against?”

Rex used his pinky to dig his ears and replied nonchalantly, “I don’t know who I’m going against. I only know that whoever dares to go against Mr. Palmer is my enemy!”

Reuben was stunned, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

From Rex’s words, Reuben could tell that Rex was seeing himself as Joshua’s sidekick!

Of course, he did not know about Joshua’s real identity.

What Reuben didn’t know was that if Joshua’s real Identity was exposed, numerous people in New York State

Get

would like to be Joshua’s sidekick.

“This is impossible… Totally impossible…”

Reuben shook his head and stared at Joshua, threatening. “Joshua! No matter what methods you use, advise you not to get carried away! If you have the ability, kill me! As long as you can’t kill me, I will definitely take revenge on you! No, not only you. Everyone related to you will be involved.”

Joshua narrowed his eyes. ‘Oh! I’d like to hear how you’re going to take revenge.”

Reuben had a smug look on his face, “Heh! Someone like you will never know the power of the Morton family. As long as my father knows about today’s accident, he will use all the sources he has to crash you down.

“Do you want to know what resources my family has for cooperation?

‘I might as well tell you! Maple Properties, the biggest construction company in New York. Prosper Group, the biggest steel trading company. Even New York Bank is deeply connected to my family.

“You should know about the butterfly effect.

“You have already offended me, which is equivalent to challenging the Morton family. Challenging the Morton family is equivalent to challenging the giants like Maple Properties!

“Are you scared now?

Joshua pretended to be scared and nodded. “I’m scared to death!”

Reuben thought that Joshua was really scared.

He endured the pain in his finger and stood up.

He looked at the sky and said contemptuously, “Joshua! I can give you a chance to atone for your sins. Now, get someone to get Pamela back, and let me play with her in front of you! As long as I have fun, I can spare your life!”

Joshua narrowed his eyes.

A sudden kick landed between Reuben’s legs.

“Ow!”

Reuben fell to the ground while covering his crotch.

He was in ‘so much pain that he couldn’t even breathe. His face was pale.

Joshua grabbed a bottle of wine and poured it on Reuben’s head, teasing, “Mr. Morton! I think you’re much happier when I play with you like this. Right?”
