Chapter 2197

Faced with the chilly and murderous aura that exuded from Horace, the branch family’s guards with

guns were stunned and dared not move forward. That was because the chill from Horace was too

overwhelming.

Even if this bunch of guards were fully armed, wearing bulletproof vests, helmets, and goggles, they

could still feel that bone-chilling killing intent.

Hansel was furious and roared, “Trash! All of you are good for nothing! Why the hell did the branch

family hire you?”

After saying that, Hansel took a pistol from the waist of one of the guards, aimed it at the back of the

guard‘s head, and ordered sharply, “I now order you to go over and take Philip down! If you dare to

disobey orders, I’ll fire!”

With that said, Hansel pulled the safety with a click!

The guard had cold sweat all over his head and cheeks under the helmet. He was helpless and

nervous. In front of him was Horace, who looked like a savage beast, while behind him was a black

pistol.

He would die either way.

“Go on! If you don’t do it, I’ll shoot!” Hansel roared.

In desperation, the guard moved forward while looking at Horace and Philip with fear and trepidation.

Horace’s face darkened as he raised his hand to do something.

Philip suddenly got up, grabbed Horace’s arm, and said to Hansel, “Hehe, you don’t need to coerce

your guards. It’s no different from taking their lives.”

After saying that, he turned to the guard who was trembling badly and said, “I saved your life.”

The guard of the branch family collapsed at this moment and slumped to the ground.

Hansel was furious upon seeing this!

Bang, bang!

Gunshots!

The guard’s chest was pierced through, and blood gushed.

“Trash! What do I need you for? Such an embarrassment to the branch family!”

Hansel cursed angrily before he glared at Philip grimly. Philip frowned as he looked at the guard who

was shot on the ground. He raised his eyebrows, stared at Hansel coldly, and said, “He’s just a guard.

Why are you so ruthless? Could it be that the lives of these guards are so cheap to you?”

His words were not loud but filled with an angry reprimand. They reached the ears of all the guards

behind Hansel.

They looked at the comrade who was shot by Hansel. Although they were a little angry, they dared not

speak. Yes, they were guards. Their lives belonged to the branch family.

Hansel chuckled and said, “Philip, don’t try to rock the boat. They’re the guards raised by the branch

family, and their lives naturally belong to us. They must die the way I want them to die! Now, on behalf

of all the heads of the branch family, I demand your explanation for your atrocities against Levi!”

Philip frowned before he sneered and asked, “Demand an explanation? How strange. Before you came

here to ask for an explanation, didn’t you ask Levi what he did?”

“Haha!”

Hansel laughed and said with a scowl, “Levi must have had a reason for what he did. By breaking his

legs so brutally, you’ve destroyed the foundation of the Clarke family. You’re instigating a war between

the main and branch families! Don’t think that just because the Chieftain is in seclusion now, you can

do whatever you please! Today, on behalf of the branch family and the Clarke family’s rules, I shall

punish you for your evil deeds!”

Philip snorted and said, “Sure enough, the branch family is full of crooks in collusion. The bunch of you

don’t know how to distinguish right from wrong! You’re so bold and arrogant. You’re so disrespectful of

the Clarke family’s rules, yet you keep talking about them. It’s simply disgusting!”

“Such audacity, you brat! I’m your sixth granduncle. How dare you speak to me like that? You deserve

a beating!”

Hansel shouted and raised his hand to slap Philip.
