Chapter 2755
Cooper was not very happy about the idea.
Sunny smiled. “Who told you that we should trade Noel’s leg with Nick’s? Rather than
letting Python break Noel’s leg, why not let Nick do it himself?”
Cooper was taken aback. “Nick will do it himself?”
Sunny leaned forward and suggested earnestly, “Travis’ leg is broken, but he’s safe Not to
mention that he will still be able to get out of bed and walk after half a year of recuperation.
I heard that Python is a cruel man, but he only captured Noel to force the Wickams into
compromising. So, what’s in it for them if they delay their plan in making a move on Noel?”
Cooper was stunned. “Are you saying that Python has other plans?”
Sunny drank his tea from the teacup. “Python is the leader of a local mafia in Madripur. All
the businesses that he’s involved in are illegal and of unknown origin. Moreover, their goods
usually travel by sea and will have to pass through the Wickams’ territory. Besides, Travis
Brown isn’t in any danger.
“However, his son getting beaten up out there is equivalent to the Wickams slapping him in
the face, so he’s only giving the Wickams a hard time because he feels that he’s been
embarrassed.
“The Wickams earn money through the waterway too, so if the two families were to fall out
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith each other, both families would suffer a huge loss in terms of business interests.
“Python’s captured Arthur’s son and is forcing the Wickams to explain themselves because
he’s certain that Arthur will never let his son suffer. But of course, if Arthur refuses to
compromise, Noel will still have to suffer a little”
Cooper suddenly understood something.
‘This indeed makes sense.
‘Given Python’s temperament, if his son has been beaten to the extent that he has to be
hospitalized, Noel’s leg should’ve been broken long ago. However, Python has only
kidnapped Noel and asked the Wickams to explain themselves, or else Noel will suffer hell.
“He’s indeed a ruthless man that excels in torturing others, so Noel will have to suffer a lot
even if he doesn’t have to die at his hands.
“Python has obtained the upper hand this time and is planning to use this incident to his
advantage to make things difficult for the Wickams. This won’t only avenge his son but also
get him more bargaining chips to talk the Wickams into giving him more benefits that he
needs and wants.
‘As a result of that, the Wickams will fall behind in this mutual relationship, and Python will
make a fortune out of this. This has always been Python’s most significant trait. He’s the
type of person that will never let go of his prey once he gets his fangs into the flesh.
‘Therefore, everyone in the circle knows it’s impossible to get rid of him as soon as he gets
his eyes on
someone.
‘And Arthur isn’t a fool either. He’s afraid that he will get overwhelmed in the future if he
hands anything that Python asks for to him now That’s why he’s been stalling him to buy
time and wanted Nick and me to step forward.
‘Nick is the eldest son of the Wickams and my biological nephew, so he knows that once he
gets Nick to make a move, I’ll definitely not stand aside and watch as Nick makes a deal
with the devil. As soon as I get involved in this matter, Python will turn to me and start to
wrap himself around me, then swallow me
whole in the end.”
Cooper snorted. “Arthur wants to be the third party that will benefit the most out of this
situation while Python and I are at each other’s neck. What a cunning piece of sh*t. Master
Southern, so what do you mean by letting Nick do it?”
Sunny gave off a pregnant smirk. “Nick is the eldest son of the Wickams, so he’ll be the one
to teach Noe! a lesson. Firstly, this will glorify the Wickams, and secondly, Python will feel
that the Dragoneers have received the respect that they deserve. After knowing that Arthur
doesn’t have the guts to do what’s right. and Nick is actually the ballsy one out of the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfather-and-son duo, who do you think Python will trust more?
Nick or Arthur?”
Cooper’s expression lit up. “So that’s how it is. By doing this, we’ll be able to shut the
mouths of those from the Wickams. After all, Noel surviving this incident is already a plus
for them.
“After that, apart from Noel’s survival, this will also show them that Nick is able to salvage
Python from total embarrassment and relieve his wrath. And if even Python approves of
Nick, then the Wickams will be proven wrong again by their choice of heir. That’s a total
smack in the face.”
Sunny chuckled and clinked glasses with him. “That’s what I want to see, a smack in their
face. We must make Arthur take a good look at how much longer the Wickams can go on
without Nick’s leadership.”
With less than one day left, Python sent someone to the Wickams to convey his message.
Martha wandered up and down anxiously. “We don’t even know if Noel is dead or alive now.
Is there really. nothing we can do?”
Arthur held onto his cup of tea but had not taken a sip from it. He had not been able to eat
or drink for several days, and his temper was not at its peak either. “What’s the use of
walking around anxiously? Will that help to get Noel released?”
