Chapter 17
“Should we make this gamble?” Logan thought. Once they killed Joseph, the Kennedy family would
inevitably attack the Parry family. That was for sure. With a deep frown, Logan subconsciously lit a
cigarette as he could not make up his mind. At this moment, someone opened the door to the study.
Bethany immediately kneeled on the ground, which startled Logan. “What are you doing?” Logan said
discontentedly, “Hurry up and get up!” “Dad, I know that you are in a dilemma, and I am no fool. I know
what you’re thinking about, but the Kennedy family has been coveting our family for a long time. Only
one of our families can continue to thrive in this place, and they will never let us go.” Bethany
continued, “Even if you want to continue to endure, will Brandon give us time?” Although Bethany’s
words were reasonable, Logan replied, “Beth, the Parry family will be finished if we lose to the Kennedy
family this time.” Bethany smiled bitterly. How could she not understand this? “Dad, allow me to be
frank. Haven’t we lost a long time ago? With the rise of Brandon and the Kennedy family, we’ve been
defeated.” Logan’s body trembled, and his eyes were dull. “Everyone knows that I’ve protected Paige
for three days. What use is there for us to deny this fact? If we keep dodging the battles, the Kennedy
family may overstep their boundaries even more in the future.” Logan widened his eyes in shock, “Did
you allow her to stay here for three days?” Bethany nodded. “You’re a complete fool… Logan could not
help but let out a furious roar before sighing heavily once more. “I’m sorry.” Bethany felt guilty. “I did not
intend to trouble you, but I did not do it solely to protect Paig. I also want to let you know that we have
no other way out.” “You’ve conceded many times in the past. Even so, will the Kennedy family let us off
so easily? Shouldn’t we plan for our future?” Logan held a blank expression. He did not expect that this
daughter would be so sensible and intelligent. “Indeed… It seems that we have no other way out.”
After a long silence, Logan put out his cigarette and slowly stood up while exuding an imposing aura.
“Inform all the elders in Parry family to assemble for an emergency meeting. Gather all our forces!”
Logan was no longer hesitant. “Didn’t Brandon say that no one was allowed to interfere? I’d like to see
if the Kennedy family is truly able to do as they wish in this city.” Bethany’s body trembled, and then
she suddenly raised her head. She finally noticed a long-lost sharpness and aggressiveness on her
father’s face. “The people of Apren City seem to have forgotten that the Parry family had always been
the leader in this city. Who are the Kennedies?” Logan taunted.
This time, Logan decided to face the battle. Since more than a decade ago, he had played nice in front
of Brandon. From then on, he had suppressed his anger and remained patient for more than ten years.
However, from this moment onward, he decided not to show any weakness anymore. Overjoyed,
Bethany immediately stood up and ran outside. After all, her father finally regained the confidence to
defeat the Kennedy family, not to mention that Bethany could also help her best friend. At this moment,
many things were happening in Apren City. Both the Kennedy and Parry families were making moves
respectively. As such, everyone in the Police Department was worried. The Kennedy family had just
left, yet the Parry family arrived next. It seemed that it would be a long, busy night ahead. Following the
actions of the Kennedy family, the Parry family, and the Police Department, the entire Apren City
seemed slightly different. It was as if dark clouds were looming over a city that was about to be
destroyed. All the highly-ranked officials felt extremely stressed. The Kennedy family was the first to
gather all their forces. All the casinos in Apren City were closed, and the workers had assembled in one
place. Secondly, it was the Parry family. Although they acted a little slower, they all started making their
way. The Police Department in Apren City was the last to make their move. Each precinct had
hundreds of officers. That day, the Police Department gathered all the members at the headquarters.
They were not allowed to leave for no reason. Inside the Police Department.
In a hidden office, Samuel video called Toby, who remained stationed in the middle of the mountains.
Toby, who was guarding near Joseph’s location, looked very serious. “Sir, there are more and more
people here. Men from the Kennedy family are coming. They have secured the perimeter ten miles
around us. Now, even the members of the Parry family are coming. I may not be able to hold my station
anymore. Please send reinforcements,” Toby urged as if a big disaster was coming. Samuel remained
silent for a moment before replying, “I know.” “What do you mean?” Toby was confused. How did his
boss know about what was happening? “Both the Kennedy and Parry families have come to look for
me today. They’re already planning to fight over there.” Samuel sneered, “I think all the influential
figures in Apren City will be there tonight.” “In that case…” “The Kennedy family first had a conflict with
Joseph, then the Parry family. Actually, I did not expect that the Parry family would get involved in this
matter. However, while Logan is no longer spineless, he is truly a fortunate man… Perhaps he doesn’t
even know yet, but his decision to get involved tonight is a blessing from his ancestors.” “Sir, I don’t
quite understand what you mean. The Parries may not be able to defeat the Kennedies this time.” Toby
was puzzled. Samuel smiled in response. “For the time being, you will be on guard. I will come over
later. Tonight is a great opportunity for young people to broaden their horizons. Perhaps you might not
even have such a good opportunity in the future. Watch carefully. Don’t worry about anything now. We
will talk about it when I come over.” Toby was full of curiosity, but Samuel had already hung up. “The
Parries… Blessing from his ancestors? Is this a good opportunity for young people to broaden our
horizons?” Toby looked at the villa. “Is it all because of Joseph?”
Toby remained puzzled. All he knew was to stand on his own watch. It was only a few hours before the
clash. After attending a meeting with the other Parry family members, Bethany immediately called
Paige and told her that Logan had decided to help Joseph. Of course, she did not reveal other details.
Paige was greatly moved, and she was finally much more at ease. Nonetheless, she was still worried.
Although the Parry family was powerful, they
were still slightly weaker than the Kennedies. This time, even with the Parry family’s help, the chances
of winning the battle were not high. However, she was grateful to her best friend, Bethany, because this
was the best the Parry family could do. At this time, Alpha 1 returned and saw that Paige just hung up
the phone. He immediately asked, “Were you on the phone with Ms. Parry?” “That’s right. Beth told me
that her father would help us.” Paige added with a wry smile, “The Parry family was overshadowed by
the Kennedy family in the past 20 years… Even with their help, we may not be able to overcome the
Kennedy family.” “Mr. Alpha 1, if Joseph manages to escape this time, please tell him to leave quickly
and not return for the time being.” Alpha 1 then glanced at Chloe, who was still stubbornly squatting at
the hotel room entrance. After remaining silent for a moment, he replied, “Mrs. Dawson, I know you This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
might not believe me, but please believe in Mr. Dawson. He will definitely get this matter settled.” Paige
did not say much and took it as if Alpha l was simply comforting her. Joseph was forced to escape from
Frogua before. Five years later, how much could he have changed? In five years, even if he expanded
his knowledge and capabilities after experiencing many hardships, how could he compete against the
Kennedy family?
