The God of War Chapter 83

Brice’s threat sent a chill down their spines. They tensed up.

This was a showdown! Either they submitted to Edward, or they would be doomed. There was no other option! Hanson wanted to make a fortune, but the older he got, the less bold he became.

After a moment of silence, Hanson finally shook his head. “Brice, please tell Edward that the situation in this city is very complicated. I don’t want to get involved and my men will sit still and take care of what we have!”

With that, Hanson threw up his hands and turned to leave.

The others looked at Hanson’s back, feeling depressed.

That night, Jorge defeated Eason, Tomson effortlessly. Obviously, Jorge’s strength was appalling. If Edward wanted to avenge Blood Tiger, he had to deal with Davon, whom Jorge backed up…

Hanson was no fool, knowing that offending Jorge would be digging his own grave.

Brice ran his eye over the crowd again and sneered. “Hanson is shortsighted and missed a great opportunity. He has no idea what this cooperation means! Everyone, will you be the next Hanson? If you are, you novelxo.com fast updateare embarrassing Edward. You have to mull over the consequences.”

The dozen “big shots” looked at each other, all with a helpless look on their faces.

They got their place because they were tactful and smart, so they understood Brice very well.

Brice laid his cards on the table and made it clear to them! If they chose to work with Edward, they would no longer call the shots in Ocean City, but would take orders from Edward and even Brice! If one refused, what awaited him was Edward’s crazy revenge: his life would always be at risk. He could drop dead when walking on the road or sleeping in bed… What the underground forces in the province could do was more ruthless than they imagined! Any of these “big shots” in Ocean City could take charge of something alone, but when a storm came, they must unite together. Anyone who left the group would die.

The forces of the provincial capital were the storm! “Have you made up your mind?”

Brice poured himself a glass of wine, picked it up, and gently swayed it. With a cold smile, he said, “To be honest, the provincial capital has been carved up by different forces. The next ones are the surrounding cities.”

“Do you have a second option other than relying on Edward?”

They froze in despair!

Ocean City was very close to the provincial capital, but the geography didn’t bring an advantage. Rather than thrive, the city lost resources to the provincial capital, leading to a huge economic disparity between them.

Once the forces of the provincial capital invaded, the local forces would not have the power to resist!

“Ocean City … will, in the end, fall.”

Connor took a deep breath, glanced at the others beside him, and gritted his teeth. “I’m in.”

The answer seemed to cost all Connor’s strength. Then he slumped against the seat.

It was too late to regret it!

Connor should have left with Hanson just now because then he would have been able to stay safe at the very least if he backed down. Now that Brice coerced him into a dilemma, he would die if anything happened!

“Sign me up!”

“We will all listen to Edward!”

“Yes…”

They all forced a smile and toasted to the upcoming merger. “Good luck with our cooperation. Edward will succeed and unify Ocean City!”

Brice guffawed, “A wise man knows how the wind blows. As expected, I’m right about you guys!”

Brice picked up his glass and drank up the wine in one gulp. Suddenly, he took out his phone and glanced at it. His expression did not change. He stood up and said, “Everyone, the deal is settled. I’ve got to go. See you next time!”

Brice went straight out, without concern for how the others responded.

“Well…”

They looked at Brice’s back and then at each other in dismay.

“Why did he leave in such a hurry? Before he left, he seemed to have checked his phone. Did something happen?” One of them asked. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

An upheaval was in the air. Ocean City … was going to the witness
