Chapter 255
Margaret thought about it for a second.
"In the beginning, I didn't want to use the trump card of the Winter family ..."
She took out her phone and made a call.
This was a special phone number.
Soon, the call connected.
"Hello. What are your orders?" The voice on the phone was exceptionally courteous.
"I need you to do something for me," Margaret said grimly.
...
At the police station in Lannopolis, the commissioner was dressed in his uniform as he issued an order to all officers of the station to gather immediately that night.
"Everyone, gear up and surround the West family villa in the east of the city!" Richard Nelson ordered.
A troop of people immediately set out confidently.
At the foot of a hill on the outskirts of Lannopolis, there was a military outpost for the Honora region. There was a large team based there.
The troop was not very huge, but it comprised the best of the best. It was led by a three-star general of Lovellia and tasked to protect Lannopolis.
That night, the general, Nathan Sweeney, received a phone call that made his face darken and hung up shortly after.
"By my order, ready the entire troop for deployment. Our target: the West family villa!"
The order was passed down through the ranks. Very soon, the troop moved toward Lannopolis.
At the Cain family villa, Victor sat in his courtyard and enjoyed some beer under the light of the moon. Suddenly, one of his servants reported that there was someone with news from the Martial League. It was supposedly a very important matter. Displeased, Victor had the messenger brought to him.
The messenger brought out an official-looking envelope, which made it clear what he was here for.
"The headquarters have ordered that the excellent level national hero, Victor Cain, must head immediately to the West family villa to await further instructions. There must be no delays!"
Victor's face darkened when he looked at the document.
This was a very important document, so even he did not dare to disobey or delay.
Timothy had arrived under orders from the Martial League, but Victor had still dared to go against him. However, Victor could not do the same with this.
He could not offend those who were based where he was meant to go.
The West family villa...
Was that not where Dustin was?
There was no way the headquarters was sending him there to play nice.
It was like signing one's own death warrant to make a move against Dustin.
Victor went through a cycle of emotions. In the end, he had no choice but to follow orders.
"I will comply immediately!"
He had no choice but to go.
That night more than three different forces were sent out because of Margaret's phone call. They alle moved toward the West family villa at the same time.
Dustin was sitting in the seat of honor in the living room at the West
family villa. He was listening West reports from the members ove!.!
West family.
"Master Fox, ever since we obtained the Aquila family's riches, the West family's influence has grown in leaps and bounds. We are on par with the great families of Lannopolis now. Soon, we will become a force just as elite as the Chandler family is!" Lucius said gleefully.
Dustin was immensely powerful.
The members of the West family believed that their family would very soon become one of the greatest forces in Lovellia. Their loyalty toward Dustin would not go unrewarded.
Dustin nodded.
"Make your preparations. Start taking over the Chandler family's businesses and invade their market share," he said evenly.
The members of the West family were taken aback.
The Chandler family was the top family in Lannopolis!
Had Dustin already gotten rid of them?
When did this happen? How did it happen?
They were all stunned, but someone rushed into the living room. He made his report.
"Master Fox, the villa has been completely surrounded. This is an emergency!"
