The Return Of God Of War Chapter 301-310
The Return of God of War Chapter 301
As Morris Group’s representative, Isaiah made an announcement to the crowd, “We plan to donate these products to all the hospitals, in order to show our support towards the medical field!”
Clap, clap, clap…
Benny Quinton was the first to clap.
The members of the media and public soon followed suit.
Morris Group had successfully boosted its reputation, gaining the public’s favor.
Even the company’s share price had risen steeply. All the other businesses owned by or related to Morris Group reaped the benefits as well.
In the afternoon, over twenty famous artists declared that they would help, in publicizing all of Morris Group’s products for free.
This was another impactful news that affected a lot of parties.
The support provided by the artists had contributed to increasing Morris Group’s sales, and their actions also reflected well on their public images, as celebrities.
Evidently, artists and entertainment companies soon
reaped the benefits of Morris Group’s prestige, as the netizens had started to applaud their charitable gestures.
Meanwhile, at Everest Entertainment.
Noah was infuriated upon seeing the news.
Slap!
He slapped Lil Lacey’s face mercilessly. “Look what you’ve done, you b****!”
Lil Lacey covered her face in a daze.
“Do you know why Levi Garrison was reluctant to apologize? Well, it’s because he couldn’t care less about both of you!”
Noah slapped Amelia.
Amelia was aggrieved.
“If I hadn’t listened to your plan previously, Everest Entertainment would’ve become a famous corporate industry, here in Erudia. Our company’s market value could’ve been multiplied by hundredfold!”
Noah trembled in anger.
“We weren’t aware that Morris Group was so formidable. We were fools to think that we were above the collaboration they’d proposed previously.”
Lil Lacey sobbed.
She had regretted her decision as well. If I’d continued to help Morris Group in publicizing their product, I would’ve achieved a great leap in my career, making my transition from a net idol to a famous star!
“Let’s go. Let’s apologize to Morris Group. Hopefully, they’ll be willing to provide us with a second chance. They must’ve chosen us previously because we’d possessed the merits they were looking for,” Noah surmised immediately.
They were unaware that it was Iris who had made the final call. Morris Group’s decision-makers were not involved in this matter.
Soon, all the executives of Everest Entertainment led Lil Lacey and ten other artists over to Morris Group.
Iris sneered when she saw the group of people, “What’re you doing here?”
“We’re aware that we’ve made a mistake, Ms. Anabelle! We’d acted like a bunch of ignorant fools in the past! Why are you all just standing there? Kneel and apologize to Ms. Anabelle at once!”
Lil Lacey and all the other artists knelt on the floor, after receiving Noah’s order.
Iris fell into a daze.
She was reminded of something that Levi had told her previously. They should be the ones apologizing to us.
Iris could not believe that Levi’s words had come true.
“Ms. Anabelle, Everest Entertainment is willing to collaborate with your company, without asking for any remuneration. We will provide you with as many artists as you require. Feel free to utilize our publicity channel too…”
Noah was desperate for the partnership with Morris Group to fall through.
He was offering Iris all kinds of free services.
“That’s right. We were fools in the past. From the way we see it now, Morris Group’s products are the best!” Lil Lacey piped up.
Amelia pleaded with Iris, “Can you please consider our offer? We are providing free promotional services to both you and your company. This is certainly a deal that will greatly benefit Morris Group.”
Iris and the other executives were dumbfounded.
They’d been so arrogant previously. Now, they’re kneeling before us, requesting for us to accept their free services, making this collaboration possible? They’re only doing this because of Morris Group’s current influence in the industry. Nonetheless, it’s not a bad idea to have a group of artists, promoting our products at no cost…
“No! I can’t allow unethical artists, such as yourselves to taint Morris Group’s reputation!” Levi rejected their offer.
Iris frowned. “Go away, Levi Garrison! You don’t have the right to speak here.”
The Return of God of War Chapter 302
Although Morris Group’s crisis was resolved, Iris did not think that Levi had anything to do with the matter.
We’d managed to turn the situation around because of the big boss’s strategy. Levi Garrison is merely here because of Isaiah Wade’s assistance. How dare he make the decision for us? Does he really believe that he is one of the company’s leaders?
“Let me make this clear, Levi. Although our previous discussion with Everest Entertainment ended on an unhappy note, they’ve now returned to apologize to us, with their utmost sincerity. Their offer to become our ambassador without any charge will be beneficial to the company!” pronounced Iris.
From Iris’s point of view, any free labor should be utilized by the company, regardless of their work ethics.
That was the norm she had practiced, after spending years, working abroad.
Iris prioritized only the economic growth of the company. She did not care for the other details.
“No! Their personalities are rotten. They’re only here to apologize to us because of how well we’re doing. Why didn’t they express their regrets in the last two days?” Levi glanced at Noah and the others. Then he announced coldly, “Get lost! Morris Group will never collaborate with you!”
Lil Lacey was mad.
She wanted so badly to strangle Levi to death. Iris Anabelle had already agreed to our proposal. How dare he reject our offer? Levi Garrison is indeed Everest Entertainment’s enemy!
Noah accused angrily, “Ms. Anabelle, I wasn’t aware that a mere entry-level staff in Morris Group was making all the big decisions for your company.”
Iris was angered by Noah’s mockery.
There were many reporters at the scene, after all.
I can’t let this news spread, to the public. Otherwise, Levi’s behavior will taint my reputation as Morris Group’s vice-president. ”Stand aside, Levi. You’re not qualified to speak here!” Iris chided.
Then, she looked at Noah and his artists. “Mr. McCormick, believe that this collaboration is feasible.”
“That will never happen!” Levi’s voice sounded out.
“Who do you think you are? Do you think you’re the big boss?” Iris bellowed.
“That’s right. I am the big boss, and this is the big boss’s decision!” Levi stared at Iris.
Kirin’s voice reverberated inside the venue, just as Iris was about to accept Everest Entertainment as their ambassador. “Ms. Anabelle, the big boss doesn’t want Morris Group to collaborate with Everest Entertainment. We are placing their names on the blacklist!”
Kirin showed up at that moment.
“The artists from Everest Entertainment are uncivilized. They’d hit passers-by on the street and they’d even resorted to threatening their fans. The media has repeatedly exposed their despicable acts. Mr. Quinton has selected us, so how can we choose to collaborate with lowly people as such? What will happen to our company’s prestige if we do that?”
Iris’s face flushed red after listening to Kirin’s speech.
She was too profit-oriented, neglecting all the other elements in conducting a business.
However, Kirin’s words had caused her to think twice.
I have to change my business philosophy. A company requires a good reputation, to win over the public’s favor. Only then can we maximize our gain!
The media began criticizing Everest Entertainment’s lowly behavior. They even exposed the news of Morris Group blacklisting Everest Entertainment to the public.
Soon after, Levi handed a USB over to the reporters.
The USB contained a video of Lil Lacey hitting a worker, throwing her rubbish onto the streets.
Levi had ordered Phoenix to repair the phone, extracting the video saved inside the device.
Lil Lacey’s career was doomed, right after the videos were leaked.
Netizens flooded the Internet with their dissatisfaction and anger towards Lil Lacey’s behavior.
Everest Entertainment’s future became bleak, all of a sudden, as Lil Lacey and the other artists were nearing the end of their careers.
No entertainment company would dare to sign a contract with them after such an incident.
Levi walked up to Iris and chided with a smile, “I’ve told you, haven’t I? These ambassadors aren’t suitable for our medical products. Mr. Quinton is the best candidate!”
Iris put on a disdainful smile. “Why are you behaving as if you were the one who’d invited Mr. Quinton to collaborate with us?”
The Return of God of War Chapter 303
“I did invite him!” Levi exclaimed.
“Hmph! Our big boss invited Mr. Quinton. You’ve got nothing to do with this matter,” Iris sneered.
“That’s enough. Let’s stop bickering. Focus on the work at hand! How can you waste your time arguing with me? The upcoming tasks will prove to be a challenge!” Levi smiled.
Iris recollected her thoughts. Morris Group’s workload will increase exponentially from now on. We will be busier than ever. However, this is what I’m hoping for. I can finally put my capabilities on full display with this opportunity.
Zoey visited Levi to apologize to him after she was made aware of the turn of events.
“I’m so sorry! Nonetheless, you’re awesome. You’d known of the big boss’s plan because you were following Isaiah around.” Zoey gave Levi a thumbs-up. “You’re so lucky, getting to meet Mr. Quinton. Do you know how jealous mother is? Mr. Quinton is her idol! She’s telling everyone who would listen to her in the hospital that her son-in-law drove Mr. Quinton around! She’s so proud of that.”
Levi asked her cheerfully, “Would mother and father like to meet Mr. Quinton?”
“Of course! Even I wish to meet with him. What more of my parents!” Zoey answered immediately.
“Okay. You should inform them to prepare dinner and a bottle of good wine when you’ve arrived home. I’ll invite Mr. Quinton to our house tonight, so that mother and father can meet with him!”
Zoey asked Levi with uncertainty as she thought that she had miscomprehended his words, “What? You’re inviting Mr. Quinton over to our house? Your joke isn’t funny at all!”
“I’m speaking the truth. Have I ever lied to you before?”
Zoey thought to herself, Levi did realize all of his promises due to some coincidences. Indeed, he has never lied to me.
“Okay. I’ll trust you this time. However, I cannot guarantee that my parents will share my sentiment.”
Zoey informed her parents of Levi’s intention when she returned home.
“Hmph! Nonsense. Do you know who Benny Quinton is? Do you think Levi Garrison is qualified to invite him over?” Aaron jeered.
“That’s right! I doubt Levi can achieve this. He couldn’t have achieved such a feat, even in his prime, six years ago. Today, Mr. Quinton had rejected the requests of the wealthiest man in North Hampton, along with the requests of the members of the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce!” Caitlyn shared Aaron’s point of view.
Zoey asked, “Do we have to prepare the dinner then?”
“Why do we need to prepare anything? You’re the only one who would believe in Levi’s joke.” Aaron answered.
Zoey was convinced by her parents that Levi was merely kidding. We’re talking about Benny Quinton, after all. He’s one of the most prominent figures in the medical field!
They refused to dwell any longer in that matter and continued with their tasks, afterward.
Soon enough, it was eight in the evening.
Someone knocked upon the door.
Zoey headed over, with the intention to unlock the door.
She turned around and walked back into the house without saying a word after she had seen Levi.
“Hey, where are you going, honey? You should welcome our guest. Where’s father and mother? Ask them to come to the door as well.”
Zoey was taken aback by Levi’s response.
She turned around and saw another person behind him..
Zoey was shocked to her core.
“Hello, Ms. Lopez! I’m here to visit you and your family!” Benny Quinton greeted her with a smile.
Boom!
Zoey’s vision went dark, as she nearly passed out from astonishment.
Benny Quinton! It’s Benny Quinton in person! He’s really here!
Aaron and Caitlyn marched towards the door as they heard the commotion outside.
“What’s the matter? Is there a guest?”
Aaron and Caitlyn looked in Levi’s direction.
Boom!
The two of them were astounded by the person standing before their eyes.
Thump!
Aaron slipped, slumping onto the floor.
Bam!
Caitlyn fell upon the floor, with a loud thud.
That’s Benny Quinton!
The Return of God of War Chapter 304
It’s the real Benny Quinton!
Zoey and her parents rubbed their eyes in an effort to ensure that this was no dream. That person is, in fact, Benny Quinton! He’s visiting our house!
Levi and Benny helped Aaron and Caitlyn to rise from the floor immediately.
The couple was taken aback by the pleasant surprise.
Benny Quinton had helped them up from the floor.
That was a story they could boast about for the rest of their lives.
The people who had helped them up were actually two of the most significant figures in Erudia.
Aaron and Caitlyn were the only people in the entire nation who had the luxury of enjoying such treatment.
“I’m here for a visit, Mr. and Mrs. Lopez!” Benny greeted.
Aaron and Caitlyn were startled.
They did not think they were worthy enough to be on the receiving end of Benny’s courteous address.
Levi frowned. “Why are both of you so excited? Did I not ask Zoey to inform you in advance?”
Boom!
Aaron and Caitlyn almost knelt on the floor after listening to Levi’s comment.
Indeed, Zoey had informed them. She had even told them to prepare dinner.
Unfortunately, none of them believed in Levi. They did not expect him to be able to invite Benny Quinton over for dinner.
That was an unbelievable feat in their opinion.
“Don’t tell me no one prepared dinner?” Levi’s frown deepened. How can I explain myself to Mr. Quinton?
Aaron, Caitlyn, and Zoey lowered their heads, remaining downcast.
Zoey was overwhelmed with guilt because she had doubted Levi too.
Levi heaved out a sigh.
Aaron and Caitlyn were embarrassed.
“Mr. Quinton, I…” Levi was unaware of what else to say.
“That’s alright, Levi. I can understand this situation.” Benny had guessed the reason behind the lack of preparations, made by Zoey and her parents.
“Hurry up and prepare the dinner! Do you want Mr. Quinton to stand here and wait the entire night?”
The trio regained their senses upon hearing Levi’s reminder.
They invited Benny into the house and headed straight to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Luckily, there were some vegetables and meat left in the refrigerator.
Aaron was caught in a difficult situation because there was no good wine left in the house.
“Don’t worry about that, father. I’ve brought two bottles of liquor over, from the Warzone.” Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Levi was glad he had prepared the liquor, saving himself from further embarrassment.
Dinner was soon served swiftly, as Zoey received help from her parents inside the kitchen.
It all felt surreal, taking in the sight of Benny, seated around the dining table.
That man was Benny Quinton! The legendary figure in Erudia’s medical field. A person who was as important as the nation’s treasure.
I can’t believe he’s here in our house. This is incredible!
Aaron, Caitlyn, and Zoey even took pictures of Benny in secret. They never imagined the impact that those photos would create in the future.
Although Benny was a high and mighty figure, he was still a down-to-earth person. He had repeatedly praised Aaron and his family for the home-cooked meal and the pleasant wine.
Living these tranquil moments like a normal person was Benny’s favorite lifestyle.
Aaron could not contain his curiosity for long, after having his share of liquor. “Why did you accept my son-in-law’s invitation, Mr. Quinton? We’d thought that something like this would never happen!”
Zoey and Caitlyn nodded in agreement.
Benny gave Levi a meaningful look before he explained with a smile, “The first reason is that I am now acquainted with Levi since he had driven me around today. Besides, I am aware Levi is the founder of this core technology that helped create these medical apparatuses. I sincerely respect people like him.”
“I see! You’re indeed a role model to learn from in the medical field, Mr. Quinton! Cheers!” Aaron raised his glass.
In their opinion, Benny was merely humble enough to accept Levi’s invitation. Hence, they thought of Benny as a generous and great man.
Benny was about to leave after filling up his stomach.
“I’ll be sending Mr. Quinton off now.”
“Okay. Be careful! Take Zoey’s car.”
Ultimately, Levi drove Benny over to Maple Manor.
That was the place where Azure Dragon, Phoenix, and the others lived.
The Return of God of War Chapter 305
“You don’t have to arrange for me to stay in this extravagant place. I’m alright, staying at my current place,” Benny quipped.
“I need to prioritize your safety, Mr. Quinton!”
Levi arranged for Benny and his secretary to stay in Maple Manor. Mr. Quinton’s well-being should be secured since this place is guarded by soldiers at all times.
Morris Group’s increasing fame and their products overwhelmed the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce’s influence all of a sudden.
The Chamber was slow to react to Morris Group’s success, as Morris Group had almost dominated the medical apparatus market.
Even the technicians working under the Chamber were planning to resign, from their jobs and bring their talents to Morris Group.
“Let us merely observe, during this critical moment. We’ll wait until the end of the commander-in-chief’s appointment ceremony before we make any moves.”
Eric and the others were depressed. However, they were forced to endure Morris Group’s advancement.
Even the wealthiest family in North Hampton, the Gonzales family, felt threatened by Morris Group’s rising.
The last time they had felt as such, was when Levi was still the person-in-charge, of Levi Group.
However, everyone was still focused on Benny Quinton’s arrival at that moment.
Benny had to stay in North Hampton for some time because he would be attending the appointment ceremony as well.
Many people had invited Benny to their gatherings and events, but he had rejected all of their invitations.
Benny refused to stay idle in the upcoming days.
He went to work at North Hampton City First Hospital.
However, he did not join the hospital as a specialist. Rather, Benny joined as a normal doctor.
All patients would only have to pay twelve bucks to receive treatment from him.
That was a great blessing to every citizen in North Hampton.
A lot of patients who were contracted with complicated diseases went to visit Benny.
Benny even arranged for Caitlyn to become his assistant.
The appointment caused Caitlyn’s position to rise in the hospital’s hierarchy. It was almost certain, for her to be selected as the director of her department.
Levi smiled wryly after he was made aware of that news.
He had wanted Benny to get some rest while he stayed in North Hampton.
To his dismay, Benny went to work as usual because he was not a man who enjoyed having too much leisure time.
That was one of the reasons why Benny Quinton was one of the most significant figures in Erudia.
Benny worked as a front-liner and treated plenty of patients, for the next few days.
He treated all of his patients fairly, regardless of their family background.
North Hampton turned into a hot spot for medical tourism, all the fruits of labor, of Benny’s influence.
Even Caitlyn became a small celebrity, simply working alongside him.
One day, Benny was working in his office.
Suddenly, a group of ferocious men entered the facility in an imposing manner.
They were obviously thugs who were up to no good.
Everyone inside the hallway scurried away after they noticed the thugs’ menacing gazes.
The group of thugs, that consisted of no lesser than eight men, disregarded the long queue outside and barged into Benny’s office.
“What are you doing? If you’re here to receive treatment from Mr. Quinton, then you need to take a number and wait for your turn!” Caitlyn reminded.
Slap!
The man leading the group of thugs slapped Caitlyn’s face mercilessly.
She staggered backward and slumped onto the floor, as that man’s slap left a visible mark on her face.
The patients seated inside the office were frightened by the scene, so they hurriedly left the room.
Benny was unfazed as he was an experienced man in life. He questioned the group of unreasonable men angrily, “Who are you? Why have you hit an innocent person?”
The leader of the gang raised his hands and answered Benny politely, “I’m sorry to have interrupted your day, Mr. Quinton.”
“What do you want?” Benny asked.
He could gather that the group of people must have hailed from a powerful background.
“There’s no need for you to be nervous, Mr. Quinton. We are here because we want to invite Mr. Quinton to attend to a patient.” The man smiled.
“That person should come to the hospital and wait for their turn if he or she is sick. I will be here in North Hampton in these upcoming days,” Benny replied.
“No, no, no, Mr. Quinton. My young master told us to invite you to the house. It is inappropriate for someone with my young master’s status to come all the way to the hospital to receive treatment.”
Benny rejected him at once, “I’m sorry, but I will not follow you anywhere. I will only accept patients who visit the hospital!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 306
The man’s face darkened after listening to Benny’s statement. He roared, “You are indeed a stubborn old man! Yield or face the consequences!”
Benny laughed. “What are you planning to do then?”
“I’ll have to take you away by force if you are unwilling to cooperate with us! Sorry about this!” The man’s eyes gleamed with malicious intent.
“That’s right, Mr. Quinton! Don’t force us to resort to that method. Moreover, we are only inviting you to attend to a patient. There’s nothing for you to be afraid of.” The others chimed in.
Benny was determined. “No. This is a matter of principle. I will reject anyone that invites me. However, I do welcome patients who come to see me in the hospital!”
“Everyone reveres you as if you are a Godlike being. But to me, you are nothing but a lowly doctor! How dare you think so highly of yourself, acting all high and mighty in front of us?”
“That’s right! It’s time to get off your high horse! We are inviting you to follow us politely because of your respectable reputation. However, you should really know your place!”
“You are just a dumb doctor! It is already a great honor for you to receive an invitation from our young master!”
The group’s leader grabbed Benny and dragged him out of the office as he spoke.
Caitlyn quickly stopped them from leaving.
Bam!
The thugs kicked Caitlyn’s abdomen. She fell onto the floor, drenched in a cold sweat, as pain washed over her.
The group of men brought Benny away from the hospital afterward.
The security guards tried to stop them, but they were swiftly defeated by the thugs.
They boarded several cars and left the hospital after a few moments.
Levi, Isaiah, and the other executives of Morris Group were discussing a matter when Levi received a call from Zoey.
“Levi, something bad has happened! A group of men went to the hospital earlier. They’d beaten mother up and had even brought Mr. Quinton away!”
Levi was upset after hanging up the phone.
“This is outrageous!”
He made a phone call and ordered harshly, “Find out Mr. Quinton’s location at once, Phoenix!”
North Hampton City was formed by combining two large cities in the past, namely Hampton City and North City.
The current North Hampton City was actually a newly developed area, combining both Hampton City and North City.
There were regions from the two cities that were not included in the formation of North Hampton. The citizens living in the outskirts preferred to refer to their living area as Hampton City or North City.
At that moment, inside a manor situated in Hampton City.
That manor was overwhelmingly large, close to the size of a town.
It was rumored that the manor was home to the God of War, thus the place was named, ‘War God’s Mansion’.
Almost two hundred bodyguards were stationed inside every corner of the manor.
Two people were seated inside a gazebo in the middle of a man-made lake.
It was an elderly man, accompanied by a middle-aged man.
The former had appeared to be of old age, as all his hair had turned white.
The middle-aged man was holding a fan in his hand. Printed on the fan were the words, ‘God of War’.
They were the owners of that manor.
There was a popular saying in North Hampton’s underworld, stating, ‘no one can match the cruelty and bloodlust of Jack Jr., Nueve, and the Invincible-thirteen’.
However, there was another saying that went around a long time ago as well, which stated, ‘the God of War was the determiner of North Hampton’s peace’.
The God of War, Liam Macy, was the true ruler of North Hampton’s underworld.
Even the King of North Hampton, Jack Smith, was Liam’s apprentice.
That fact alone was sufficient enough, to underline the terror, that Liam’s had caused.
He was the true boss of North Hampton’s underworld.
Liam had reigned over Hampton City and North City’s underworld before the two cities had combined to become the current North Hampton.
He resided in the outskirts after the geographical change and had been living a low-profile and secluded life in recent years.
Hence, the God of War, Liam Macy, began fading from everyone’s awareness.
Most people were only familiar with the King of North Hampton and the Invincible-thirteen, at the mention of North Hampton’s underworld forces.
The newcomers who had joined any of the underworld gangs were no longer aware of the God of War’s existence.
However, the God of War was the real King of North Hampton.
The God of War’s influence far exceeded the King of North Hampton, Jack Smith, even at that point in time.
The Return of God of War Chapter 307
The person seated before the God of War, Liam Macy, was his son, Nathan Macy.
Nathan Macy was different from his father. He was a domineering man who would resort to violence, in order to resolve every issue he faced.
Nathan would have taken control of the North Hampton’s underworld, obliterating people such as Jack Smith, if not for Liam’s restrictions.
He did not fancy staying in the outskirts, but he had to obey his father’s command.
Nathan was playing chess with Liam at that moment.
A young man dressed lavishly approached Liam all of a sudden. “Are the two of you playing chess, grandpa, father?”
“You’re here, Andy.” Liam gazed up at his grandson, Andy Macy, with affection.
Liam had established Macy Group, a corporation involved in over a dozen industries, in recent years to legalize their family’s business.
Liam cared deeply for his grandson, even going as far as to treating Andy as his heir.
That was the reason behind Andy’s arrogant and self-centered personality. It had caused him to frequently stir up trouble.
Andy glanced at Liam and announced, “Grandpa, I’d noticed your deteriorating health recently. Hence, I’ve arranged for a surprise for you!”
Nathan and Liam gazed at Andy curiously. “Oh? What’s the surprise?”
“You should be aware of Benny Quinton’s arrival in North Hampton, I suppose?” Andy asked.
“Yes, we do.”
“I’ve invited Benny Quinton over to our house so that he can examine grandpa, father, and mother’s health conditions!” Andy answered with excitement.
Liam and Nathan were surprised after listening to Andy. “What? You’ve invited Benny Quinton? He has never accepted any invitations, as far as I’m concerned. He’d even rejected Winston Gonzales and the others!”
Andy smiled. “That’s right. He’s indeed a stubborn old man. I can’t believe he’d wanted grandpa to visit the hospital and wait for your turn! With our status, he should be coming to us!”
Liam sensed something from Andy’s words. He could not help but ask, “So?”
“I’ve brought him here by force since he’s unwilling to cooperate with us!” Andy pronounced cheerfully.
Nathan nodded. “That’s right. That old and stubborn fool is too arrogant. Your decisions are absolutely correct, son!”
However, Liam frowned. “This could be troublesome. I’m afraid that something bad will happen since we are talking about Benny Quinton, after all.”
“What’s there to be afraid of, father? We haven’t done anything wrong anyway. We are only inviting him to attend to your sickness. We’ve paid our respects to him, even though we were using a rather extreme method to invite him over.”
Nathan did not think that there was anything wrong with Andy’s way of handling the matter because of his assertive nature. He even thought that it was a polite way of inviting Benny over to their house.
Andy nodded. “Father is right, grandpa! We are not harming Benny Quinton in any manner. I am sure that he will be delighted after we pay him a huge amount of treatment fees for his effort.”
Liam was convinced. “You’ve got a point there. Moreover, why do I have to be afraid? It’s not wrong for me to invite him over. No one has the right to reject the Macy family’s invitation in this world!”
Benny was brought over to ‘the War God’s Mansion’, swiftly after.
“Hey, old man Ben! Hurry up and conduct a health checkup for my grandpa. I’ll reward you handsomely if your treatment is effective!” Andy sneered, with his hands tucked inside his pockets.
To his dismay, Benny merely regarded him with a cold stare.
“Oh my, what’s the matter? Are you unhappy because we aren’t paying you in advance? In that case, I’ll give you some money immediately. Then, I will top up the rest of the amount after you’re done with the treatment. I can even build a private hospital for you!” Andy jeered at Benny.
Nathan came to a halt in front of Benny. “I am terribly sorry to have brought you here by force, Mr. Quinton. But you will receive a lot of benefits if you attend to my father’s sickness.”
Benny shook his head. “I refuse to do so. I’m not attending to anyone’s sickness!”
Momentary silence filled the air after he spoke.
The Return of God of War Chapter 308
“What did you say, old man? I dare you to repeat yourself!” Andy was infuriated. “Do you know who we are? My grandpa is the most formidable person in North Hampton. He’s nicknamed the God of War!
You should consider it an honor, for us to bring you here!”
“That’s right! My father is Liam Macy. I am Nathan Macy. Our family is rather powerful in North Hampton. Although we are living a secluded life now, my father used to rule North Hampton’s underworld in the past!” Nathan announced with a smile.
Nathan’s humble pretense in his speech did not dampen his insolence.
Benny looked at the pair of father and son in disdain. Can your family’s background match up with my close friend, the God of War?
“Don’t worry, Mr. Quinton. We will send you back to the hospital after you are done with my father’s treatment. Not only will you receive a large amount of reward, but you will also be considered as the Macy’s family’s friend!” Nathan reassured.
Others would have been shocked to their cores by Nathan’s offer because countless people had tried all that they could, to befriend the Macy family.
Despite Liam’s current secluded lifestyle, plenty of influential figures would visit him every day.
They were putting forth their best efforts to be acquainted with him.
Unfortunately, only a selected few had truly befriended the Macy family.
Benny shook his head again. “I do not need that many friends. You should bring me back as soon as possible. Otherwise, the Macy family will be in deep trouble.”
Nathan and Andy exchanged glances after receiving Benny’s advice. Then, both of them laughed aloud.
There were three untouchable forces in North Hampton.
The wealthiest man, Winston Gonzales, the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce, and the God of War, Liam Macy.
It was an impossible task for anyone to defeat these three powerful forces.
“Oh? Are you a fortune teller, Mr. Quinton? When will trouble befall our family?” Liam croaked. He crossed his hands behind his back and walked up to Benny slowly.
Liam shared the appearance of an ordinary man. But he exuded a domineering and impressive aura from his body.
Benny felt Liam’s overwhelming presence at once.
Benny had met with people from all walks of life. He was certain that Liam’s imposing manner was one of the most spectacular he had ever witnessed.
“I respect you, Mr. Quinton. I’d wanted to send you back to the hospital because I did not want to cause anyone any inconvenience. But I am intrigued by what you have just said. I do wonder, who has the capabilities to inflict trouble on the Macy family?” Liam questioned coldly.
Benny persuaded him, “I advise you to send me back at once. Otherwise, you will invite trouble to yourselves. Some things are beyond my control.”
“Hahaha… I heard that no one has ever successfully invited you to any event or gathering. I shall be the first person to achieve this accomplishment! Let’s see how long I can make you stay in my house!” Liam was uncompromising.
He wanted to take the risk of going against Benny’s advice.
Nathan and Andy wore smug expressions on their faces.
Members of the Macy family were overbearing. They did as they pleased and disregarded all the rules whenever they had yearned, for things to go their way.
They did not care about the Gonzales family or the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce.
The Macy family was the family that had caused the most problems to arise for Jesse Nielsen because of their extensive influence and volatile nature, unlike the relatively docile Gonzales family and the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce.
Any unpredictable move from the Macy family would be disastrous to North Hampton, yet there was no way to restrain them.
Benny smiled. “Then we’ll see what’s going to happen.”
Right then, the news of the incident that had happened in the hospital spread like wildfire in North Hampton.
Some people had abducted Benny Quinton from City First Hospital and had even beaten up over a dozen hospital staff, including doctors, nurses, and security guards.
All the citizens were enraged by the news.
Everyone in North Hampton began searching for Benny’s whereabouts.
The Gonzales family and the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce were utilizing all of their connections to locate Benny as well because that was a golden opportunity for them.
Anyone who could rescue Benny Quinton would become acquainted with him, receiving endless bouts of benefits from that mere connection.
The Return of God of War Chapter 309
The police did not intervene in the matter because no one had filed a report.
Unfortunately, there was actually another reason behind such a peculiar turn of events.
Levi had decided to take charge of the matter related to Benny. Hence, no one else had the right to meddle.
Half an hour later.
All the formidable forces in North Hampton received news of Benny’s current location in ‘the War God’s Mansion’, in Hampton City.
They were also made aware of the identity of the person who had kidnapped Benny. That person was the God of War, Liam Macy’s, grandson, Andy Macy.
Inside the most luxurious villa in North Hampton.
Winston Gonzales put on his clothes and announced, “Let’s go. We are going to the Macy family’s house in the outskirts!”
The Gonzales family sped in the outskirt’s direction.
Their cars arrived at ‘the War God’s Mansion’, after a short while.
Another fleet of cars came to a halt in front of the Mansion from another direction at the same time.
Eric Robinson, Wallace Henderson, and the lot alighted their cars.
They were people from the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce.
The Gonzales family and the people from the Chamber were the first to arrive at the scene.
“Let’s head in together! We will make further discussion after rescuing Mr. Quinton!” Winston Gonzales urged.
“Alright. Let’s do this together!” Eric Robinson and his friends agreed to Winston’s suggestion.
Then, they followed him to the entrance of ‘the War God’s Mansion’.
The door to the Mansion was tightly shut, without any guards around.
Clint stepped forward and knocked on the door after Winston waved his hand.
“Please inform your master, Winston Gonzales from the Gonzales family and the four noble families from the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce, Eric Robinson, Wallace Henderson, Clifford Anderson, and Baldwin Williamson are here to meet with the God of War!” Clint demanded.
The people inside the War God’s Mansion gasped after listening to Clint’s announcement. Did we underestimate Benny Quinton’s significance? The two most formidable forces in North Hampton have arrived so swiftly? Even Winston Gonzales is here in person.
Nathan informed Liam of that news immediately after he was made aware of their arrivals.
“Hm? They’re all here?” Liam was mildly astounded.
“What should we do, father?” Nathan asked.
Liam’s lips curled into a sneer. “I do not care about anyone else in North Hampton except for Jesse Nielsen. Winston Gonzales and the others are at most having the same social status as me. However, I could not care less about them, to be honest. We’ve got nothing to worry about!”
Nathan nodded. “Yes, father!”
Winston and the others waited for over ten minutes outside ‘the War God’s Mansion’, before the door was finally pushed open.
A young man marched through the door. He was Andy Macy.
Andy cupped his hands and announced, “Please return, everyone. My grandpa will not be able to entertain any guests, as he is recuperating.”
“Andy, will you pass along a message for us? We are here today because we have something urgent to discuss with your grandfather!” Winston was determined.
Andy’s eyes gleamed with a menacing glint.
“Guards, send them away!”
Hurried footsteps closed in immediately, after he spoke.
In a split second, over a hundred guards surrounded Winston and the others.
“Leave!” All of them shouted at the same time.
Winston and the other leaders of the noble families from the Chamber exchanged glances with one another.
They knew that Liam was taking them lightly.
They were left with the single option of entering the Mansion by force, to rescue Benny. Unfortunately, Winston and the rest did not have the courage to do so.
They had no other choice but to leave depressingly because they did not want to suffer a loss by clashing forces with the Macy family.
Phoenix reported the news to Levi after he laid his hands on that piece of information.
“The God of War, Liam Macy? Is he powerful?” Levi asked.
“He’s very powerful! He’s the real ruler of North Hampton’s underworld. Even the King of North Hampton, Jack Smith, is Liam’s apprentice. His capabilities are on par with Winston Gonzales. Even Mr. Nielsen has to pay his respects to Liam Macy!” Phoenix explained.
“Someone of his caliber exists in North Hampton? This is my first time hearing his name.” Levi was astonished.
“Sir, Liam Macy has been living a secluded life in the outskirts of North Hampton. Most people in the city are no longer conscious of his presence.” Phoenix elaborated.
Azure Dragon and Kirin asked, “What shall we do now, Sir?”
The Return of God of War Chapter 310
“Is Mr. Quinton safe?” A cold glint shone in Levi’s eyes.
“He’s considered safe at the moment. It was Liam’s grandson, Andy, who’d brought Mr. Quinton away. He’d wanted Mr. Quinton to check on his grandfather’s condition.” Phoenix explained.
Levi slammed the tabletop with his hand. “He’s ridiculous!”
“I have an idea, Sir…” Azure Dragon piped up.
“Speak…”
“I am certain that Mr. Quinton will not wish for this matter to spiral out of control. So, I think we should resolve this matter in secret. Let’s ask Jack Smith to inform Liam to release Mr. Quinton and apologize to us since Jack Smith is Liam’s apprentice.” Azure Dragon suggested.
“Okay. You’re right. Mr. Quinton is not a fan of hassle.” Levi nodded in agreement.
“Bring Jack Smith here immediately!” Kirin went out to execute Levi’s order immediately.
Jack Smith, who was hanging out with his friends at that moment, was baffled by Levi’s summon.
He was frightened after Levi enlightened him of the on-going situation. Why did Master anger Levi Garrison out of so many people in this world?
Levi took out a piece of paper and wrote a few words, The God of War, Garrison.
“Hand this piece of paper over to Liam Macy and tell him to release Mr. Quinton right now. I want him to surrender his followers who’d hit those innocent people in the hospital too!” Levi commanded.
“Understood!” Jack Smith received the piece of paper with trembling hands and swiftly left Levi’s sight.
Meanwhile, over a hundred bodyguards had been positioned outside ‘the War God’s Mansion’.
The reason was that over a dozen people with high social statuses in North Hampton visited the place, in an attempt to rescue Benny, after Winston Gonzales and the people from the North Hampton Chamber of Commerce left.
Even Liam was impressed by Benny’s influence. Benny Quinton truly lives up to his reputation. It’s like I am the one who’s at fault here for offending someone as great as him!
However, Liam ordered his bodyguards to chase their visitors away because none of them was significant in Liam’s opinion.
“Is there any news on Mr. Nielsen?” Liam asked.
“Nope, father! I did not see any police here as well. I suppose they are turning a blind eye this time!” Nathan answered.
Liam nodded. “Great. I have nothing to worry about, as long as Mr. Nielsen stays silent.”
Jack Smith arrived right after a few groups of people were chased away by the bodyguards.
He was startled by the bodyguards’ formation in front of the Mansion.
“Who are you? Leave at once! Otherwise, we will not go easy on you!” One of the bodyguards bellowed, after noticing Jack Smith’s advance.
“I, Jack Smith, am here to visit my Master!” Jack Smith introduced himself.
“Oh, it’s you, Mr. Smith! Please, come in. My father welcomes you into the house!” Nathan welcomed Jack in person.
Inside the sitting room in ‘the War God’s Mansion’.
Liam was sipping on his cup of tea with Benny seated beside him.
“Why are you here, Jack?” Liam asked.
Thump!
Jack knelt before Liam before speaking a word.
Liam was taken aback by Jack’s unexpected gesture.
“Why are you doing this, Jack?”
Jack lowered his head and stammered, “Master… I… I do not dare to speak…”
“There’s no need to hesitate!” Liam was puzzled.
Nathan and Andy were caught in perplexity as well.
Benny’s lips curved upwards into a smile as if he knew what was going on.
“Speak!”
Liam raised his tone and grimaced.
Jack was shocked. He took out the piece of paper that Levi had handed to him earlier, as his body shuddered uncontrollably.
“Master, someone wants you to have this. He commands you to release Mr. Quinton immediately and apologize to him. He also wants you to surrender the few people who’d caused trouble in the hospital,” Jack spoke through gritted teeth.
“What? Who’s this outrageous b? How dare he demand an apology from the Macy family? He must have a death wish!” Nathan and Andy responded.
