Chapter 159 A Big Short's Prisoner

• The air in the surroundings was so tense that it was almost freezing. As the head of the Carlton family in Imperial City, Gregory had a respected status and even a very close relationship with several of the highest-ranking wealthy family heads in Imperial City. His words always carried considerable weight, and no one dared to defy him. Yet, the kid before him had killed his friend, Tyler, in front of him right after he spoke to make him stop. It was undoubtedly a slap in his face. Rage swelled in him, and Gregory’s expression turned cold. He stared fixedly at Leonard, a strong aura exuding from him. Some people didn’t necessarily need to be able to perform martial arts. The prestige they had built from being in control of one’s life and death for a long time could make people afraid to look directly into their eyes.
• “Boy, I’ve warned you, but you didn’t care at all. Are you looking down on the Carlton family?” Gregory’s voice was as loud as a bell, and his invisible momentum made many people present tremble with fear. “The Carlton family? Who do you think you are?” Leonard also sneered back at him. “What did you say? Who do we, the Carlton family, think we are?” Gregory laughed angrily and said, “The Carlton family is one of the top 20 families in Imperial City, and as the head of the Carlton family, I can decide the life and death of countless people with just one word. How dare you disparage the Carlton family?”
• Leonard looked at Gregory indifferently and said, “So, the Carlton family is truly nothing.” When he uttered those words, many people around him had strange expressions on their faces. Someone thought, “He actually belittled the Carlton family in Gregory’s face. How bold of him!” Another person thought, “It is clear that he is not afraid of the Carlton family at all.” “You’re courting death!” Gregory roared, and his eyebrows kept twitching in anger. “Listen, boy. Now, I declare you as the enemy of the Carlton family, and the Carlton family will use everything in our power to get rid of you.” “Is that so? Then I’d better get rid of you first.”
