Chapter 212
But he was afraid that his mother Riya would object. Ruby was not only a prostitute but also a big shot. His mother would definitely not agree. Now he still had to rely on his mother. He had to talk about it slowly.
On this day, Henry brought a few bottles of wine with him, and some cooked dishes came to drink with Clem. While drinking, he suddenly talked about his business with Henry. “Clem, recently I heard about a little rumor about your nightclub being sealed. I don’t know if it’s true or not.”
“Tell me about it.” Clem felt ashamed because he didn’t have money. He didn’t go out recently and stayed at home every day to surf the Internet. He didn’t know anything about what was going on outside at all.
“I heard that the night club you opened has something to do with your partner. I heard that your partner has offended someone he shouldn’t have offended, so he deliberately closed the store.”
“No way! Who did you hear that from?” Clem didn’t believe it. Wasn’t Shannon’s friend the one who opened the store? Who in the South City would dare to touch a gold signboard like Channing?
“I heard it from Brother Biao’s men,” replied Henry.
“Brother Biao? Why haven’t I heard of this person?”
“You haven’t gone out recently, haven’t you? Of course, you don’t know Brother Biao. Brother Biao came to South City recently, and he’s from the capital city. The old man is in an important department, and he came here to hide from trouble after committing a crime in the capital city.” Henry explained, “Brother Bill is a big boss. Every time he goes out, there are dozens of bodyguards in black running the way. Every time he spend money, he will be in a prosperous age. Rodney and Mr. Moore of the Public Security Bureau see him and smile.”
“He must be a master who can make Mr. Moore and Rodney think highly of him.” Clem believed him. “How did you know his men?”
“Don’t they need some familiar thugs to come to South City? Let Mr. Young find someone. I have a good relationship with Mr. Young’s nephew, so I’ll introduce him to you.”
Henry explained, “Brother Biao said that South City was a good place and wanted to set up a stronghold here. Coincidentally, he took a fancy to the store that you had been sealed up before, and then he went to clear up the relationship and re-open the store. After that, he found out why you were sealed before. People from the capital city are really different. They have a good relationship with each other!”
“Damn it, I was wondering why I was so unlucky. It turns out to be because of this. Do you know who the partner offended?”
“They didn’t say that, but they said that Malone was not the real boss. The real owner was Mr. Black’s wife. Later, after the nightclub was sealed, Mr. Black went to find him. It was said that it was his wife’s work. In the end, he returned the money that Mr. Black’s wife had donated to him. Only you were unlucky and didn’t pay back a penny.”
“Are you telling the truth?” Clem was so angry that his face turned green.
“That’s what they said. I guess 90% of it is true. Think about it. The officials are protecting each other. Even though Mr. Black has been an official for so many years, it’s not a big deal.”
“So I’m the only one who has nothing to lose?” Clem was so angry that he said, “I can’t let it go like this!”
“What do you want?”
“I have to get my money back.”
“What should I do? Mr. Black has power. What do you have? How do you want the money?”
Clem was stunned by Henry’s question. What ability did he have now? He had so much money just because of his mother. If it weren’t for his mother, he wouldn’t even be a fart. It seemed that he had to discuss this matter with his mother.
Clem went to find Riya and told her what Henry told her. Riya was not happy, but she was afraid that her son would make trouble when he was young, so she shook her head and said, “Shannon helped me when I was at my lowest. She did me a favor. I don’t think she would treat us like this. We can’t trust rumors easily.”
“Now the news has spread outside. Anyway, only we will suffer losses in this matter. Since she has got half of the money, she should want to share it with us. She can’t take it all for herself.”
“Are you stupid?” Riya glared at her son. “If Shannon wanted to split it, why did she have to wait until now? How can you ask her for it without evidence now?”
“Doesn’t she have something in our hands?” Clem asked back. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
“Idiot, although the evidence is harmful to her, it’s not harmful to us. If Rodney knows that we help Shannon do things, he will be the first to let us die. You’d better give up!”
Her mother’s reminder made Clem break out in a cold sweat. Indeed, her mother was Shannon’s accomplice. If this matter was exposed, they would die faster. But would they just let it go? He was unwilling to give up.
In the evening, when Ruby came back, Clem told Ruby about it. Of course, he didn’t mention that Shannon and his mother were in cahoots with each other. He just told Ruby about what Henry said.
Ruby also told him, “I also heard about this from two guests in the nightclub today. I was thinking about coming back to tell you.”
“It seems that this matter is almost true?” Clem was very angry. “Damn it, the store was closed because of them, but I was the unlucky one. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became!”
“Yes, they are not honest. Anyway, they should give you half of the money.” After all, it was worth millions of dollars, so Ruby was naturally tempted. If she could get the money back, with her relationship with Clem, there must be something good. “We have to find a way to get the money back.”
“What should we do? We’re civilians, and they’re officials. They don’t have the ability to fight them!” Clem sighed.
“We don’t have the ability to fight them openly, but can we find a way to deal with them secretly?” Ruby sneered. Today, not only did she hear that Clem was cheated, but she also knew another shocking news. It turned out that the secretary’s wife was a flower in the cat’s alley!
When she was a child, she was very familiar with a flower. At that time, she was only 14 or 15 years old. The flower was at the peak of her career in the cat’s alley. Many gangsters liked her and praised her for being beautiful. They wanted to please her in various ways. She envied and envied the flower and often imitated her words and actions, hoping that she would become as beautiful as she grew up and attract the attention of so many men.
The man she liked was Vicente, a gangster in the cat’s alley. Vicente, who was five years older than her, was a loyal fan of a flower. He often tried his best to block a flower in front of a flower house, but he didn’t like Vicente. Later, a flower was taken home by a gangster to mess with. Vicente also came. He heard the noise of a flower and the gangster in the room. Vicente couldn’t bear it and picked up a stone to smash the window of the gangster. At that time, he was saved by her.
At that time, her brother, Rudy, was also a big shot in Parkview Street. Naturally, the gangster who was in cahoots with his brother did not dare to offend her brother, because her rescue of Vicente was naturally grateful to her. She deliberately seduced him, and the two of them went to bed later.
She had a big belly at the age of fourteen. At that time, Rudy was so angry that he investigated the people who had made her pregnant everywhere. She didn’t say anything even if she bit them to death. Later, this matter was hidden. But Wen Xiaolong was scared by his brother and went out to hide for a period of time.
Later, her brother was caught by Vicente and came back. Because of this, Vicente treated her well. Later, he went to another city to drive a truck for her and kept in touch with her.
Once, when she went to see Vicente, he was a little drunk and revealed a secret to her. He said that he was afraid and didn’t want to do this. Ruby naturally supported Vicente to not do this kind of thing, so he persuaded Vicente not to do it.
At that time, Vicentealso agreed not to do this under her persuasion. Later, she went to the city to see Vicente again. It was when she saw him hit someone with his car on the street.
That woman had lost a lot of blood. It was said that she died after being sent to the hospital.
After Vicente hit her, he went back to his own residence. When he saw Ruby, he was shocked. Ruby witnessed the whole thing, so she forced Vicente to ask if he was ordered by a flower. But he didn’t admit it even if he was beaten to death. It was not until she threatened to tell the police that Vicente told the truth. At that time, he knelt down and begged her not to tell anyone about it.
Ruby chose to remain silent because she liked Vicente. Later, she surrendered to Vicente and was sent to work in Sichuan to change. Until now, there was still no news.
“Do you still have to worry about dealing with me when you know the secret of a flower?” Ruby told Clem about it and planned to threaten Shannon with it.
This was a hard blow to Shannon, and it didn’t affect the mother and son at all. Hearing this, Clem immediately agreed. The two of them discussed and wrote an anonymous letter to Shannon.
Amber was going to stay for two more days, but Channing didn’t let her go. He insisted that she and Mel stay for a few more days. Shannon was afraid that Amber would deal with Celia, so she made an excuse that Celia was in poor health and sent Celia to a private hospital to nurse her fetus and Celia to leave home. Clem didn’t know that the mother and daughter moved out, so the letter sent back was in Channing’s hands.
Channing saw that there was no signature on the envelope, so he had doubts about the letter in his heart, so he secretly opened it. Originally, he wanted to seal it after reading it, but he didn’t expect the content in the letter to be so explosive. He was so angry that he fainted.
Channing was soon sent to the hospital for rescue. When he woke up, he was staring blankly at the ceiling. He couldn’t believe that Ashley’s death was caused by Shannon. Channing hated her so much! He really wanted to cut Shannon into pieces to relieve his hatred.
He couldn’t put this matter on the table. He couldn’t tell the public at all. If people knew that Channing had just cheated and that his mistress had killed his wife and succeeded in becoming the secretary’s wife, would he still have a place to put his face down?
The most important thing was not only his face, but also his work would definitely be affected if this matter broke up.
“How could he let go of her until now? But I can’t let it go like this. Shannon is such a wicked woman. I won’t let her go!” Channing thought, “I have to find a way to avenge Ashley. I must make Shannon suffer!”
