All the members of the Prince Gang were kneeling in front of Levi. They shouted in unison, “The South Hampton Prince Gang is honored to see you, Master.”
Their spirited greeting echoed reverberated like rumbling thunder.
There was total silence, as if time had stopped and space had frozen.
Everything was suspended at that very moment.
Tyler was stupefied, and so was Michael and Joey.
The thousand-odd members of the Jones family were all astounded.
Everyone felt as if they had been struck by lightning and burnt to a crisp.
As Calvin and Mia were standing close by, he saw everything unfold right before him. Unable to fully process what was going on, he felt as if he was going to faint anytime.
Luckily, Mia was there to support him.
Bam!
Someone couldn’t accept what was going on and fainted on the ground, causing a loud thump.
The sound brought everyone’s senses back.
They were all gasping for air.
It is unbelievable!
It must be the end of the world!
No matter what, they could not accept what had just unfolded in front of them.
The South Hampton Prince Gang is actually kneeling in front of Levi?
W-What’s going on?
Isn’t he a bastard?
I thought he was just rabble?
Did he really spend six years in prison?
Who is he for the Prince Gang to kneel before him?
A barrage of questions bombarded everyone’s mind.
They were filled with doubts and didn’t know where the disconnect was.
Among the thousand men present, all that could be heard was the sound of heavy breathing.
It was obvious no one could fathom what was going on.
Tyler and Wales couldn’t help but ask, “Jaron, Jackson, are you paying your respects to the wrong person? The one who is the most senior among us is Joey, the Patriarch. And he’s right over here.”
Hearing that, Jaron looked at Tyler and his brother. “If you are still a member of the Prince Gang, come over here and kneel!”
“Huh? Kneel? To him? Never! I can kneel to anyone but him!”
“That’s right. What are you talking about? We will never kneel to a bastard!”
Tyler and his brother made their stand.
Jaron suddenly stood up and stormed toward both of them.
Slap! Slap!
He gave each of them a forceful slap.
“I will personally kill whoever dare calls our master a bastard,” Jaron bellowed.
“From now on, you are both banished from the South Hampton Prince Gang!”
Jaron made a decisive decision.
Everyone was shocked that Tyler and Wales were kicked out.
“The next time you utter the word ‘bastard’ against our master again, I’ll kill both of you.”
