Chapter 278

The Legendary Man Chapter 278 Wealth Or Health “Spit it out! I don’t have all day,” ordered Allen impatiently.

“They seem unreasonable!” Jerry knew that he could never agree to the man’s terms. I have to get my leg broken and pay one hundred million? No way!

“Which condition are you referring to? The one hundred million? Or breaking your leg?” questioned Allen coldly.

Both, of course! That was what Jerry thought, but he dared not say it out loud. “Mr. Morsley, I really don’t have one hundred million to pay your friend. What do you say I scrape up ten million for him, and we’ll call it even?”

Even though Jerry always pretended as though he would inherit a fortune, he actually came from a slightly above average family in Yaleview.

The most he could gather was a few million, but not the amount Allen demanded.

“You must be kidding me. Do I look like someone you can bargain with? I told you one hundred million, and that’s how much I expect to see. If you’re even a cent short, I’ll break your other leg too.”

“But Mr. Morsley… I can’t. Even if I wanted to, I don’t have one hundred million just lying around.”

“Is that so? Okay, then come over here.” Allen gave Jerry a cold glance before beckoning to the man once again.

However, Jerry was so terror-struck that he completely froze.

“Get over here now!” Allen’s roar was enough to send shivers down Jerry’s spine.

“Mr. Morsley, my family-”

“I don’t give a da*n about your family! Do you think you’re Christian Walker? Well, let me tell you something. Even if Christian were the one who beat up my friend, I would show him no mercy,”

interrupted Allen before Jerry could finish talking.

There was no one in Yaleview more well-known than Christian, yet Allen held nothing back when he undermined the member of a prominent family, for his family was just as influential, if not more.

In an instant, Jerry realized that he had made a fool of himself.

Never in his life had he ever been that humiliated.

“I’ll only say this one last time. Get over here right now!” Allen sounded so fierce that Jerry had no choice but to obey him.

“Mr. Morsley, I…” Slap! Before Jerry could say anything else, he received a hard slap on the face from Allen.

Immediately after the smacking, his cheek turned as red as a tomato.

Still, Jerry remained silent and dared not oppose Allen.

All he could do was rub his cheek to ease the pain and swallow his pride.

“Let me make myself clear. You’re to pay my friend one hundred million. If you’re even a cent short, I’ll break all your limbs. Do you understand? And if you’re still unable to pay then, I’ll go to your family. Do you know what will happen if they can’t pay? I’ll kill every last one of you.”

Even in the face of such a severe threat, Jerry dared not utter a single word of defiance because he knew that Allen was dead serious.

However, compared to Allen, Jerry was even more terrified of the man’s brother, Andy.

The future head of the Morsley family was said to have racked up countless kills alongside Asura.

What made Andy even more fearsome was that Asura personally recommended him to Asura’s Office.

Nobody knew exactly what his position was in that place or what he was in charge of. In fact, only a handful of people knew what the man looked like, but that did nothing to dampen his influence. Some even said that his position in Asura’s Office could rival that of the King of War.

The level of power that came with that kind of status was something unimaginable to Jerry.

One could say that the Morsleys owed their prominence to Andy, for he was the only reason the family rose to power.

“I’ll figure something out. Your friend will get one hundred million from me!” promised Jerry with his teeth gritted.

Even though Jerry was well aware that Allen was extorting him, there was nothing he could do about it.

Otherwise, his entire family could be in danger.

“Don’t forget your leg. Besides the one hundred million, I want your leg broken,” reminded Allen before shifting his attention to Jonathan and the others. “That goes for you too. Every one of you will pay my friend one hundred million! Anyone who fails to do that will get another broken leg.”

Immediately, Kylie and Yvette trembled in fear since they also knew that it was impossible for them to get that much money. We’re just students! We can’t even afford to pay one million, much less one hundred million!

“What do we do, Jerry?” Kylie hoped that her cousin had thought of a way to get them out of the predicament.

However, Jerry was just as helpless as his cousin was. “How should I know? I’m in just as much trouble as you are, so what makes you think I can help you? Now just stop talking!”

“But Jerry…” Kylie was utterly disappointed when her cousin would not even look at her.

“Any ideas, Jonathan?” Sophia too got worried when they somehow got involved in the matter.

As another member of prominent families in Yaleview, Sophia was well aware of the kind of person Allen was. They don’t call him the Devil of Yaleview for no reason. That guy is despicable!

“It’s okay. Don’t worry about it. I mean, it’s not as if we did anything to the young man,” comforted Jonathan as he patted Sophia on the head.

“But-”

“You have nothing to be afraid of. I’m here, aren’t I?” assured Jonathan nonchalantly as though Allen’s threats meant nothing to him.

At that moment, Allen narrowed his eyes to scowl impatiently at Jonathan and Sophia. “What the heck are you two discussing over there? Have you finally made up your mind? Your money or your limb?”

“You’re not going to receive a cent from me. I had nothing to do with what happened to your friend, so why should I pay him?” responded Jonathan in all seriousness.

“What did you say? Did I hear you right?” Allen then started laughing as though he had heard a good joke. “Are you trying to reason with me, boy?”

“It doesn’t seem like you’re a reasonable person,” retorted Jonathan coldly.

In response, Allen pointed his finger furiously at Jonathan. “Just who do you think you’re talking to? I’m the law in this city!”
