Chapter 174: Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Can You Please Use Your Brain The night quietly went by.

Under the machinations of those with ulterior motives, the Zymons family lost to the Wahlstrom family.

The news that they must surrender everything within ten days had already spread.

It caused a stir among all parties.

“The Zymons family initiated the challenge. I was certain they would win. But to my surprise, they ende up losing.”

“Would the Zymons family willingly give up their efforts of over twenty years and permanently leave within ten days?”

“The game is lost, and with the Wright family’s suppression, the Zymons family has no choice unless a special miracle occurs!”

“Who would have thought the Zymons family would end up like this? The Wahlstrom family’s control over Walund is now even more solid!”

Amidst the various discussions, the news of Golden Hades’ death was announced to the public through th media.

The wicked Golden Hades had met his end, and the victims of his brutality could now rest in peace.

However, more details, such as when Golden Hades returned to the country, why he returned, and how he was brought to justice, were not mentioned in the report.

Yet, a small group of people managed to sniff out something unusual.

Was it a coincidence that Golden Hades was executed at the same time on the night of the challenge between the Zymons and Wahlstrom families?

However, the authorities in Jadeborough had already drawn their conclusions about this, so everyone else couldn’t be bothered to delve into it. After all, they didn’t have any connection with Golden Hades.

What they were more concerned about was whether the Zymons family was willing to give up everything and whether there would be further disputes.

The Zymons family didn’t really care about the death of Golden Hades. They were more concerned about themselves.

Solomon, who had not slept all nigla, was like a raging lion, constantly smashing things within the villa.

“D*mn it! It’s all because of that Finnegan. If he hadn’t brought someone at the crucial moment, Golden Hades would have already dealt with them. By now, we would have already established ourselves rightfully and justly. I’m going to kill him, I’m going to kill him! I’m going to kill his entire family too, leaving them with no place to be buried.”

Elsa walked in, looking exhausted. She 100, had not rested all night.

Seeing Solorion acting without a shred of composure, she felt irritated and stepped forward, slapping him directly on the face. “You jerk, all you can think about is getting back at Finnegan, even at this time.

Do you have any idea what crisis the Zymons family is facing right now?”

Elsa still seemed to be somewhat unsatisfied, slapping him once again. “If we can’t find a solution within ten days, we’ll have to abide by our agreement and withdraw permanently, leaving everything in the hands of the Wahlstrom family. And regarding Golden Hades’ death, Captain Quickwood who arrived last night must surely know that he was the man behind the mask. Do you have any idea how troublesome it is to get involved with Golden Hades?”

Solomon, who had been slapped twice, calmed down a bit. “Aunt Elsa, Golden Hades represented the Zymons family, but he wasn’t someone we invited. What’s there to fear?”

Upon hearing this, Elsa, irritated, raised her hand, intending to slap him again.

But in the end, she dropped her hand in defeat. “We both know that we didn’t invite Golden Hades, but do you think they would listen to our explanation?”

Solomon frowned. “Are Brutus and the others planning to abandon us and pin the blame of colluding with Golden Hades on us? That’s really low!”

Elsa sneered, “Can you please use your brain?”

The matter of colluding with Golden Hades could be a big deal. After all, the person was already dead.

The Zymons family was now almost worthless to Brutus. It was uncertain whether he and the person behind him would continue to aid the Zymons family.

Solomon also realized the crux of the matter. “So, as long as the person behind Brutus believes that the Zymons family still has value, this issue with Golden Hades is trivial?”

Elsa nodded. “Exactly! We can’t bear the blame for colluding with Golden Hades, but Brutus and the one behind him can shoulder it without any consequences. They’ll just receive a few reprimands at most. So, we must now find a way to prove that the Zymons family still holds value. Otherwise, this matter with Golden Hades is enough to skin us alive. But I still can’t get in touch with Brutus…”

Upon saying this, Elsa gave a bitter smile.

They usually regarded ordinary people as insignificant but were now seen in the same light by Brutus.

Upon losing their value, they were now being abandoned ruthlessly.

Solomon’s face was filled with fierce resentment as he balled his fists. “It’s all because of that Finnegan. Ever since I met him, nothing good has happened. I won’t let him off easily!”

Elsa seemed a bit distracted at the moment.

Waving her hand, she said, “Calm down for a moment. I’ll give your dad a call and see if he has thought of a solution.”

However, Solomon wouldn’t stop.

After Elsa walked away, he called over two of his trusted aides. “Come with me,” he ordered. “I don’t want to waste any more time with Finnegan. I want his life!”

Ling noon. Finnegan slowly awakened.

“I thought you would have just slept through it.”

Seeing him wake up, Romona, who had followed him since last night, snorted.

Finnegan shook his head vigorously, suddenly sitting up. He first glanced at Doom Star, who was still in deep sleep beside him, before turning his gaze to Romona.

He had intended to ask where Sawyer had gone, but then he noticed that Romona looked exhausted.

He eyes were bloodshot.

With a slight smirk, he teased, “Ms. Quickwood, you didn’t spend all of last night keeping watch over me did you?”

Romona’s face turned red.

After she came over last night, she was told she couldn’t go anywhere. In the end, all she could do was sta here and watch Finnegan.

Of course, her pride would never allow her to admit it. “What are you thinking? Why on earth would I sta up all night for a jerk like you? Have you no shame?”

It was clear as day that Romona was defending her own dignity.

With a smile, Finnegan didn’t point out anything. Instead, he picked up his phone and dialed Quiana’s number.

He wanted to let her know he was safe after being out all night and that he was injured, so it wouldn’t be convenient for him to go back these next few days.

Quiana didn’t overthink it. She simply told Finnegan to take care of his health before hanging up phone.

the Seeing him put down his phone, Romona teased, “I never realized you were such a mama’s boy, always needing to tell your mom wherever you go.”

Rolling his eyes at her, Finnegan stood up and put on his shoes. “Mothers always worry when their child is far from home. I’ve been on my parents’ minds for five years. I can’t possibly let them worry about me anymore.”

A jolt went through Romona’s heart, and the look she gave Finnegan subtly changed.

Finnegan rose to his feet, stretching his muscles and taking a deep breath. “That old man is still better than me when it comes to giving treatment. I’ve recovered about sixty to seventy percent. Where is he?”

“He’s with my granddad. Are you going to see him? Can you take me with you?”

Having come over in the middle of the night, Romona simply wanted to understand Finnegan’s background, as well as who exactly Finnegan’s master was.

The fact that he could converse directly with Nathan had completely changed the usual state of affairs of the Wright family.

Finnegan capped her forehead lightly. “You’re a lady. Can you please not be so nosy?”

In the end, Romona clung to Finnegan’s arm. “I’m curious, so curious. Can you just take me with you, please? They won’t tell me anything, and it’s driving me crazy!”

Finnegan’s lips twitched. “D*mn, even a fierce woman can act coy now. Are you sure you’re not sick in th head?”

“Enough talk. Let’s go!”
