Chapter 221: Answer

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jerry Wood looked calm and cool as though nothing had happened. But in reality, he wasn’t the slightest bit cool or calm inwardly.

In fact, he was jumping for joy.?‘I have been competing for control over San Diego with Philip Smith for years, yet nothing has come out of it. However, everything is going to get resolved today!’?

The moment Philip Smith received the call, he rushed down to San Diego Grand Hotel without a moment’s hesitation.

Seeing that his father had arrived, Nathan Smith finally felt at ease.?‘I’ve made countless mistakes and offended numerous people since I was young, but I have always been fine. As long as my father is around, nothing will happen to me.’?

In elementary school, he had beaten his teacher up; in middle school, he had destroyed an internet cafe; in high school, he had slept with a female classmate; in college, he had almost set the school’s lab on fire!

These were all matters with great consequences in the eyes of many others, yet they meant nothing to him. And it was all because he had a powerful father—one who could absolve him of all responsibility in such incidents in San Diego.

Today, his father was here again.

“P-philip Smith? He’s here?” Someone let out a shriek.

‘Who would’ve expected Philip Smith to involve himself in this matter personally? It has been years since Jerry Wood and Philip Smith started competing with each other. Could it be that the two of them are going to fight it out today?’

“Dad!” Nathan Smith sobbed as he shouted for his father.

Everyone present knew that he was simply acting, but every time Nathan Smith shed tears, his father would be sure to resolve the problem for him.

Nathan Smith had already gotten used to it.

Yet, Philip Smith walked up to his son and viciously slapped the latter in the face. He was so brutal that Nathan Smith’s front teeth fell out as blood flowed down his sunken face.

“W-what’s going on?”

Even the onlookers were confused by the situation.

“Kneel down! Apologize to Mr. Taylor!” Philip Smith roared and ordered his son to get on his knees.

However, Nathan Smith refused to give in. “No, Dad! He was the one who hit me, so why should I apologize to him? Is it just because he’s Jerry Wood’s guest? Who is Jerry Wood anyway?”

Nathan Smith was a fool who still didn’t understand just how impressive Finn Taylor was. In fact, he still felt that his father had only hit him because of Jerry Wood.

It was because his father didn’t want to ruin his relationship with Jerry Wood.

‘But so what if he does? They’ve already been fighting for so many years. Do they really still care about that?’

“B*stard! B*stard! B*stard!” Hearing his son’s words, Philip Smith was fuming.

On the other hand, Jerry Wood was delighted as he watched on by the sidelines.?‘Good! Great! This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for. The more your family offends Finn Taylor, the worse off you’ll all be. When that time comes, San Diego will be mine!’

Philip Smith fell to the ground on his knees, kowtowing over and over again until blood was all over his forehead. “Please forgive us, Mr. Taylor! Please forgive us!”

Just then, two more men walked into the hall—Malcolm Landon and Victor Smith.

They were both Philip Smith’s men, and they barely matched up to Jerry Wood after forming a secret alliance.

Someone had naturally told them about what was happening at San Diego Grand Hotel, and they had rushed over at once.

After arriving, the two men fell in front of Finn Taylor as well. “Mr. Taylor, although we work with Philip Smith, we didn’t know anything about this. Please spare us, Mr. Taylor!”

Everyone thought that Malcolm Landon and Victor Smith would help the other out, yet they fell to the ground the moment they arrived.

Everyone knew full well what this meant.

Jerry Wood’s VIP guest.

Philip Smith, Malcolm Landon, and Victor Smith kneeling.

It was evident that even these four families added up together couldn’t even compare to this young man.

‘This… Is there someone this influential in San Diego? Where’s he from? San Francisco? New York? Or Chicago?’

Nathan Smith had now finally realized that something wasn’t right. He was a rich second-generation heir who could afford to offend others, but he was no fool.

His father had already gone down on his knees. Then, even Malcolm Landon and Victor Smith had kneeled down without a word too. How could he not know what all this meant?

“From today on, Philip Smith’s family will no longer exist in San Diego.”

The moment Finn Taylor announced his verdict, Philip Smith passed out.

As for Malcolm Landon and Victor Smith, they heaved a sigh of relief because Finn Taylor hadn’t mentioned their names.

This meant that they had been spared.

Of course, Finn Taylor paid absolutely no heed to Nathan Smith. His gaze fell on Jerry Wood instead. “Kneel down!”

Those two words were like a bolt out of the blue.

‘Aren’t Jerry Wood and Finn Taylor on the same side? Besides, hasn’t the former been helping Finn Taylor? Since the matter has already been resolved, why is Finn Taylor blaming Jerry Wood?’?What stunned the onlookers even more was that Jerry Wood actually fell onto his knees!

“Give me an answer in a week’s time. Otherwise, the Wood family will no longer exist in San Diego either.” With that, Finn Taylor left.

Because of Finn Taylor’s aura, nobody dared to say a thing.

It was only a long time after Finn Taylor left that some finally dared to break out into silent whispers. “Why? Why is he picking on Jerry Wood?”

“Are you dumb? Can’t you tell what Jerry Wood just did?”

“What?”

“This was his party, and he had everything under control. Nathan Smith picked on that young man, but Jerry Wood only showed up after such a long time. Did he do that on purpose, or was he only doing it to provoke that young man?”

All the attendees of the party were prominent figures in San Diego. Although they had no idea who that young man was, it didn’t take much for them to understand the situation.

As such, someone blurted out the truth in no time.

Even though Jerry Wood was on his knees, he was delighted by this result.?‘From now on, I’ll officially be the head of San Diego. Philip Smith won’t even be able to live here! After seeing the situation, I’m sure Victor Smith and Malcolm Landon will run to my side too.’?

Of course, there was nobody who felt more aggrieved than Nathan Smith. He bore no grudges against Finn Taylor.

‘It was Lucy Lawrence’s fault! That b*tch was the reason I ended up in this state.’?But by the time he scanned the room, he realized that Lucy Lawrence had already fled the scene.

…

The beach, San Diego.

Finn Taylor looked into the distance.

Chicago held the Taylor family, as well as Peregrine Hall.

He wasn’t here just to help Lindsey Taylor out but also to deal with those from Peregrine Hall—including Jerry Wood.

All these people were simply loyal to Peregrine Hall, not Finn Taylor.

As he left, he had mentioned something to Jerry Wood. He wanted the latter to make a choice between him and Peregrine Hall.

He wanted an answer.
