Life After Prison Novel by Silencieux

Chapter 113
Larry burst out laughing when he heard that. “Hahaha, that’s a good one, Monte! Why would I need to bring so many people just
to have a meal? Do you think I’m a coward?”
“Haha, not at all! Why would I ever think that, my friend? Hasn’t Draco Hall made its mark by slaughtering many people? I am
told that your strength has reached the peak of a warrior and is almost approaching that of a grandmaster!” Monte had a genuine
smile on his face while making that remark.
Sure enough, many tables had been set up in a courtyard outside, with a few more inside a hall. Many wealthy businessmen
began to arrive, and they all received the protection of the Cedar Gang. The businessmen’s endeavors were guaranteed to be
smooth sailing, and all they had to do was provide some monthly benefits to the Cedar Gang!
After seeing the arrival of Larry and his men, several dozen people stood up and greeted them with a smile. It was common
knowledge that the relationship between Monte and Larry was very tense, and their apparent show of goodwill with each other
masked a bloody battle between factions in private.
“It’s my honor to have you here, Larry. Come and have a seat!” Monte led Larry’s group to the big table in the middle and
motioned for them to sit. Aside from Monte, One–Eye, and others who were higher up in the hierarchy, there were also a few
well–known wealthy businessmen who joined them at the table.
Severin followed without much ado and took his seat at one of the chairs beside Larry and Blade when he saw them sit down.
“Umm...” Monte frowned as soon as he saw that a random guy whom Larry brought along had somehow decided to sit at their
nearby table. He a*sumed that the guy was probably one of Larry’s subordinates, so he was appalled that the guy would have
such disregard for hierarchy and sit there at the same table as them.
One–Eye looked at Severin carefully and was bewildered. “You?!”
Monte was surprised to see One–Eye’s reaction and he asked, “Do you know him, One–Eye?”
“This was the guy who offended Jada Stone last night. I went to help, and as a result, we got bullied by Blade and his
subordinates!” One–Eye immediately said.
When Blade heard that, he chuckled, “Jada’s no saint for plotting against Mister Severin, and it irks us that you went there to
help her!”

One–Eye had been provoked by Blade’s remark, and he stood up in anger while slamming his hands on the table. He glared at
Blade. “Don’t you forget that this is the Cedar Gang’s turf. Mind your words, Blade. I’ve been patient with you for a long time
now!”
Blade stood up too, clenched his fists, and glared at the other party. “What are you going to do now? Fight me? Come at me
then! Let’s have a one–on–one and see which one of us survives?”
The two sides immediately tensed up, and some of the Cedar Gang’s people immediately stood up and raised their guard.
One–Eye’s face soured. He had stellar combat power and was one of Monte’s more capable men. However, he had no chance
of winning in a one–on–one fight against Blade. Having experienced Blade’s strength before, he knew that he was no match
against the man.
“Sit down, One–Eye! Enough with your nonsense! Whatever that happened yesterday was in the past, and today’s the birthday
of our second–in–command. Aren’t you aware that your actions. might be construed as a sign of disrespect toward him?” Monte
smiled faintly and motioned One- Eye to sit down.
He believed that it would not be a problem for them to kill Larry or Blade as long as he gave the order for his stationed men to
make an ambush, but if Larry and Blade fought tooth and nail against the group of men, the Cedar Gang would suffer greatly
even if they managed to complete their end goal of killing.
