Chapter 1207
Davon blinked in confusion and asked, โMs. Aspen, who exactly are you calling a bitch?โ
Aspen smirked coldly and pointed straight at Christina. The latterโs face darkened as she stood up stiffly.
โAspen, youโre going too far!โ Christina snapped. โIf I had known Supreme Capital Group was the major client here, do you really think Iโd have bothered showing up?โ
Her tone was sharp, but there was a flicker of unease in her eyes.
Aspen remained utterly indifferent. โSince you donโt care, then do us all a favor and leave. Christina, I told you once that I would make sure your entire family would struggle in Blumedale. And when I say something, I mean it.โ
Christinaโs face turned from merely unpleasant to downright ugly. She turned sharply to Davon and demanded, โYouโre the one who invited us here. Now, whatโs your decision?โ
It was a clever move, throwing the ball back into Davonโs court. After all, they were on Phoenixdream Enterprisesโ turfโsurely Aspen and Andrew could not completely run wild here, right?
Davon forced a dry laugh and looked over at Andrew, stammering, โUh, Mr. Lloyd, is thereโฆ some kind of misunderstanding with Ms. Christina?โ
Andrew just shrugged lazily. โDonโt ask me. Today, Aspenโs handling everything. Her word is my word.โ
Davon immediately turned toward Aspen, trying to smile. โMs. Aspen, you know, Ms. Christinaโs backed by the Wrights. And the Wrights are one of the Five Apex Families in Blumedaleโฆ maybe itโs not worth making enemies?โ
Aspen shot him a frosty glance. โAre you trying to teach me how to do my job?โ
Davonโs eyelid twitched. โDamn it, this womanโs presence is terrifying!โ
Even Andrew lifted a brow slightly, feeling a bit amused. This little maid of his was really channeling the vibe of one of those ruthless crime bosses from old movies.
Christina sneered. โMr. Parks, think carefully. I donโt give a damn about this deal, but if you kick me out, the Wrightsโand Mr. Wright himselfโwonโt be pleased. Choose wisely.โ
For once, Christina actually held her ground. She refused to believe Aspen could keep steamrolling her every single time.
Even with Andrew standing there, Christina did not think he would tip the scales enough to change the game.
Davon wiped the sweat that was breaking out on his forehead. He silently cursed, โHoly hell, these two crazy women are going to get him killed either way!โ
Aspen stayed perfectly composed, a hint of mockery in her voice. โSo youโre scared of the Wrights, but youโre not scared of Mr. Lloyd?โ
Slowly, she sauntered over to Andrew and lovingly straightened his suit collar, then wrapped her arms around one of his. She cooed sweetly, โDavon, maybe you didnโt knowโbut Mr. Lloyd is sworn brothers with Mr. Logan Keller, heir to the Keller family, the number one of the Five Apex Families. And not just thatโheโs also a personal favorite of Governor McCormick.
โAnd the Haywoods? The Goldings? Theyโre powerful too, right? But lookโcould they do a damn thing to Mr. Lloyd? Nope. Not a chance,โ
Aspen laid out Andrewโs legendary connections with zero hesitation, each word making Davonโs fat face twitch harder.
She let out a soft, chilling laugh and added, โOh, and one more thing, Davonโsomething you really need to keep in mind. Recently, Mr. Lloyd hasnโt been sleeping well or eating right. Heโs been itching to find some clowns in Blumedale to crush for fun.
โJust took out Seth not long ago, but it wasnโt enough. His hands are still itching for more.โ
