Karine James’s words stunned everyone present.
No matter what, Karine James and Yvette Larson were still cousins and relatives. They’d never held deep grudges against each other, yet the former hated her cousin and her family so deeply.
It all boiled down to one reason only—Yvette Larson was better than her.
This logic was hard to understand.
‘What kind of upbringing did she have to have such warped world views?’
“Mr. Taylor, how should we deal with her?”
Finn Taylor eyed his wife and said, “Mom, bring Yvette back home.”
Linda James knew that her daughter would definitely be soft-hearted and that her heart would definitely ache if she were to see how Finn Taylor dealt with them..
But these people had gone overboard, and they wouldn’t learn their lesson if he didn’t do something today. As such, Linda James left with her daughter.
After informing Finn Taylor, Chloe Yeats left too. Since the former was dealing with his own family matters, there was no need for her to remain there.
“How many men do you have?”
“Over fifty?”
“Alright, I’ll give him to your men then.”
Karine James flew into a frenzy the moment she heard that. ‘What does Finn Taylor mean? Is he going to let so many people trample all over me? If that really happens, I’ll be too humiliated to continue living on in this world! Besides, he said it in front of Weston’s family. The entire James family will learn of this. If that really happens, I’ll have to kill myself.’
Brother Dan chuckled without objecting. “Alright.”
“Break all his limbs.” Finn Taylor was referring to Weston Shaw.
The latter thought that he had absolved himself of all responsibility by pushing the blame to his cousin. But since he had done something, Finn Taylor wasn’t going to let him off either.
Finn Taylor pointed at Karen James. “The 30,000 dollars from before.”
Karen James acted as though she had nothing to fear. “I have no money—you can just kill me.”
Finn Taylor nodded. “Alright then. Kill her. Tell your men to watch out and not be discovered.”
Brother Dan nodded seriously. “Don’t worry. We’re experienced.”
That stunned Karen James. She’d never believe Finn Taylor if he said that he’d kill her, but she couldn’t afford to disregard Brother Dan’s words.
“I have it; I have 30,000 dollars. I’ll return it to you right now.”
“Return it? 30,000 dollars is only the interest. You’ll have to return me 60,000 dollars in total.”
“Are you robbing a bank?” Karen James shouted, but she was met with Brother Dan’s calm and collected gaze.
She dared not rebut him. “60,000 dollars it is—I have 60,000 dollars.”
“Take the money.”
Brother Dan was terribly experienced in collecting debt. He knew that debt collectors couldn’t afford to listen to other people’s sweet nothings. If they were to do so, they might not even be able to collect half of what they were owed.
As such, Karen James had to cough up that 60,000 dollars right away.
While Karen James’s heart broke, she had no other choice but to retrieve the money.
When she did so, Weston Shaw’s eyes lit up. ‘If I had known that we had this money at home, I would’ve spent it all a long time ago. But now, there’s no way I’d dare to touch that money.’
He kowtowed to Finn Taylor, begging for mercy. “Finn Taylor, I’m begging you. Our family borrowed 30,000 but returned 60,000. Do you think you can let me off without beating me up?”
Taking the money, Finn Taylor simply left. As he reached the door, he said, “Some dogs are really b*stards! I’m afraid they’ll come back to cause trouble if you don’t break their legs.”
With that, he turned to leave.
Weston Shaw was initially still in a daze, not understanding what Finn Taylor had meant. It was only after a while that he realized that the latter had called him a b*stard dog.
After leaving Weston Shaw’s house, Finn Taylor headed to Karine James’s house. At that moment, Henry James and Serene Edwards were at home.
Finn Taylor barged in without knocking on the door.
“Who allowed you in? Get out!” Henry James flared up the moment he saw Finn Taylor as he thought about how the other had humiliated him, and he tried to chase him away.
“I’m not here as a guest. I’m here to inform you of something.”
“What?” Henry James was fuming. ‘Finn Taylor isn’t welcome here at all. It’s humiliating that this piece of trash is even in my house!’
“Your daughter did something.”
Upon hearing Finn Taylor’s words, Henry James’s heart pounded. He knew what the other was talking about. ‘Could it be that Finn Taylor is here to take his revenge because of what happened?’
“Your daughter paid Brother Dan to teach Yvette a lesson.”
Serene Edwards was still in the dark about this, so there was visible shock on her face.
“They’re cousins and relatives, but your daughter was so vicious.”
Henry James was certain that their plan had succeeded. “So what? Yvette Larson was the one who went against Karine first. My daughter was only taking her revenge. What’s wrong with that?”
Finn Taylor was speechless. ‘Like father, like daughter. This family is hopeless.’
“You’re right. It’s just revenge, so it’s no big deal. Chloe Yeats knows Brother Dan. He’s her lackey, so nothing happened to Yvette.” Finn Taylor sauntered over.
Disappointment was plastered all over Henry James’s face. It looked like he was upset that Yvette Larson was fine.
“But your daughter is still being held hostage by Brother Dan. I’ve asked Brother Dan—he has over 50 men. He’ll give Karine James to his men to have a good time.”
At that, Henry James’s face drained of all color. “How dare you do that, Finn Taylor?”
“Why are you getting so worked up? Weren’t you the one who said that it’s just revenge and that it’s no big deal?”
Of course, Henry James couldn’t care less whether he had indeed said such words earlier. He swung his fist toward the other but was kicked several meters back by him.
“You’d better save it, you old man. Let me tell you something. We’ll start counting from today—150,000 dollars a day. I’ll ask Brother Dan to hand your daughter back as soon as you fork out the money. It’ll be 150,000 today, 300,000 tomorrow, and 450,000 the following day… I’ll be waiting for your call.” With that, Finn Taylor turned to leave.
Henry James and his wife were left paralyzed on the ground, their faces as pale as ghosts. They knew full well what kind of person Brother Dan was.
What their daughter would be subjected to at his hands was well beyond their imaginations.
‘150,000 dollars. I only need 150,000 dollars today. We have to get that as soon as possible; otherwise, we won’t have any money tomorrow. The longer we delay, the more money we’ll need, and the more Karine will suffer!’
