Chapter 26 Abbott Robertson
1429 Words
Now Joe was relieved. He wanted to throw a few harsh words at Daniel. But on second thought, he decided not to do. What if Daniel ordered his men to beat them up? They were outnumbered after all.
When Daniel saw that Ronnie had taken care of the matter for him, he obsequiously dragged a chair over and wiped it carefully.
"Hey, Ronnie, please sit down and wait."
Ronnie nodded in satisfaction.
He liked an obedient man.
When Ronnie was about to sit down, Aaron yelled, "Hey, don't."
Daniel walked over immediately.
"Weirdo, Ronnie is sitting in this chair as a favor to you. Shut up, or I'll beat you."
Aaron was hesitant and intimidated.
"Hey, are you deaf? Okay, you're asking for it."
He rolled up his sleeves and tried to hit Aaron.
He had thought in his mind that he was no match for Barret, but he was still strong enough to bully a person like Aaron.
In the presence of his men, he must show his "power".
Ronnie stopped him, not out of kindness or sympathy. He was afraid that hurting Aaron would annoy the young man who was on his way to send him a lot of money.
"Wait, Daniel, let's get the money first."
Daniel immediately understood him.
He gave Aaron an arrogant look. "Well, I will deal with you later."
As he spoke, Ronnie sat down.
With the sound of "Ouch", he fell on his back and was very embarrassed.
Daniel immediately went over to help him to his feet.
"Be careful, Ronnie."
Ronnie gave him an angry look.
"Damn! I didn't find this chair with a broken leg."
Daniel took a look and found it was true that one of the stools had a cracked leg. If one really sat down on it, it would not be able to bear the weight.
He immediately put the blame on Aaron.
"Weirdo, are you plotting against us?"
Aaron waved his hands in fright.
"No, I wanted to warn you just now, but you didn't allow me to speak."
"Bullshit! I think you did it on purpose. Guys, teach this old thing a lesson."
His men were about to hit Aaron.
Joe had little experience with such a situation, so he was a little dazed. He was suddenly pushed from behind by Barret.
He glanced back at Barret and Barret winked at him.
Joe understood that Barret wanted him to play the role of a "hero".
Although the people in the warren had run back to their houses, they were watching closely what was happening in the warren from the cracks in the door and the windows.
Of course, they were watching not because they cared about Joe's safety. They were actually afraid that they would be robbed of the money they had just been given.
"Hold on!"
"Oh, brat, you're asking for it. That's fine, guys, hit them both."
Before they could do anything, Ronnie stopped it again.
Joe was a cash cow in his eyes at this moment.
It would be too risky to start beating him up before he got the money. He could beat Joe after he got the money.
"Daniel, be patient."
"Ronnie, these bastards are crazy."
Joe snorted disdainfully.
He doubted which bastard was being too crazy.
Ronnie pretentiously lit a cigarette and took a few slow puffs.
"Don't worry. I have a plan."
Joe immediately understood it.
He was planning to get the money first and then to beat them up. What a good plan!
Daniel also understood him.
He gave Joe a hard look.
"Boy, you will be sorry soon.
...
About twenty minutes later, they heard the sound of a car in the alley.
Soon a man walked in
He was a man of medium height, about thirty-five years old, with a delicate face. He was dressed in a suit and tie and wore a pair of gold glasses. He looked very gentle.
No one would have thought that he was Abbott Robertson.
Seeing the way the man was dressed, Daniel thought he had gone to the wrong door.
In fact, even Joe thought so.
"Hey, who are you? Get out of here. Don't get in the way."
Abbott didn't even look at Daniel and hurried over to Barret.
"Sorry, Mr.Barret, there is a traffic jam on the road. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
His tone was neither humble nor overbearing, but everyone present could tell that he was trying to please Barret.
"Never mind, Abbott. If these people were not so unreasonable, I would not have asked you to come over."
"It's my pleasure."
"Thank you then. Oh, I haven't introduced you yet. This is our young lady's husband, Mr. Joe Smith."
"Oh, Miss Nicole is married? Why didn't I hear any news?"
"Well, they just registered their marriage. They will have a formal wedding ceremony soon. I will send you an invitation at that time."
"Thank you. It would be a great honor for me."
He enthusiastically extended his hand.
"Congratulations, Mr. Smith. My name is Abbott, and I would appreciate your kind attention in the future."
Joe felt great.
Abbott Robertson came alone, a bit outnumbered.
But some people were born with that "big shot" aura, and when they stand in front of others, others instantly knew that as long as they were there, they didn't have to be afraid of anything.
What was more, Abbott had asked Joe to pay kind attention to him in the future.
It seemed that a big shot like Abbott was humbled by the Andrew family.
For a moment, he felt less ashamed of himself as a live-in son-in-law.
"Of course, Mr. Robertson. Thank you for your help."
"Mr. Smith, please drop by when you're free…"
The three of them were chatting happily, which annoyed Ronnie.
He thought to himself, how dare you ignore me?
"Hey, are you bringing me the money?"
"Mr. Smith, Mr. Barret, allow me to deal with him first."
Abbott turned around and faced Ronnie.
Ronnie looked at him with contempt.
He was now 100% sure that the "gentleman" in front of him couldn't be the famous Abbott Robertson.
There was nothing to be afraid of. He had so many men, and he could bully them to his heart's content.
"I'm Abbott Robertson."
Ronnie and his men immediately burst into laughter.
Daniel was even more elated.
"Are you Abbott Robertson? Well, I am your father. Son, call me Dad."
The gangsters laughed louder.
Abbott was not angry. He smiled with interest.
"Well, you hear me. Apologize to Mr. Smith and Mr. Barret now. After they forgive you, you may get out of here and never come back."
Daniel was about to curse again, but Ronnie stopped him.
Ronnie was smarter than Daniel, knowing that the money was more important than anything else.
"I don't care who you are. Are you bringing me 50 thousand dollars?"
In the presence of Joe and Mr. Barret, Abbott wasn't in the mood to argue with Ronnie. He just wanted to solve this problem quickly.
"You heard it wrong. What I said was that you would apologize to them, give them fifty thousand dollars as compensation, and then get out of here."
Ronnie was furious.
"Are you kidding me? You'd better think about the consequences. I'll ask you again. Where's the money?"
Abbott just stared at him mockingly, without saying anything.
It meant, "I'm playing with you. What are you going to do to me?"
Ronnie was burning with rage.
Since he couldn't get the money, he would beat him up, and took all the money that the people in the warren had been given.
"Bastard! Guys, destroy him."
Daniel rushed to him first.
Obviously, this young man was vulnerable, so he had to run to him faster to get more credit.
However, Abbott kicked him away, knocking down several men behind him.
His speed was incredible.
The gangsters behind were stunned.
"Well, I haven't exercised my muscles for a long time. I will play with you today.
If he were a smarter man, he would have realized that even if the man was not Abbott, he was definitely a very powerful man. But Ronnie didn't think so. He still felt that with so many of his men, he could beat this man up sooner or later.
"What are you waiting for? Go kill him."
These gangsters came to their senses, and they rushed to him again.
Abbott also squared up for a good fight.
There suddenly came a shout from the door.
"Stop!"
