"Everyone, please make sure that you've made a well-thought-out decision. You will no longer be part of The Ivory the moment you step out this door.
"From today onward, you cannot seek profit under the nof The Ivory. And you will no longer be under the organization's protection the moment you leave this place." Alyssa squinted. She rested her arms on the armrest gracefully. With a tap of her foot, she spun her chair around and faced them. "Gang life was never about violence. It's about knowing the ways of the world. I hope none of you assumed that your safety all these years was because people feared your names." Everyone in the group looked at one another.
A look of diffidence flashed across the eyes of a few division heads, whose divisions were not as big as Harry's.

"The Ivory is able to have business dealings and survive till today because my father has been supporting your organization behind the scenes. Yet, your naivety was telling you that all of you were the ones who built The Ivory's success. That's ridiculous, don't you think?" Everyone was dumbfounded.
The Taylor family invested in The Ivory Gang from behind the scenes? They had never known about this.
"Each of your 13 divisions uses ten million from the Taylor family to maintain your businesses annually. These are all recorded in your accounts. I'm not making this up." Alyssa rested the side of her head on her palm. She smiled. "Those of you who no longer wish to stay in The Ivory will also lose this support from the Taylor family. As for the drug that you rely on... Too bad." Alyssa's cold chuckle made the senior gang members go numb! "My brother, Cyrus, is chief of the Criminal Investigation Unit. Those of you who have been in the underworld would have heard of him.
"What if I were to ask him to check on all of you every other day and get him to force all of you to suspend your businesses half the tbecause of your distribution of illegal drugs? How are you going to continue running your businesses then? "He is a perfectionist. The moment he locks his eyes on his targets, he will keep pursuing them until he captures them." Upon saying that, two or three others, who weren't as shameless as Harry, sat back down quietly.
Harry continued glaring at Alyssa, as if he was trying to tear her into pieces with his piercing gaze.
He had made such a big fuss up until now. He would be embarrassing himself if he were to back down now.
Others might not have cared about their pride as much when they returned to their seats. But he was not going to be humiliated like that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Ms. Alyssa, you can't scare me. I et have been working under Mr. Marc for decades. You can say that I contributed to half of The Ivory's success today. I am well-respected in the underworld and also by Mr. Marc himself! ne "All these years, we have contributed more than enough to the Waters family. You claim that you spend ten million dollars a year to keep us afloat. But what we've given to the Waters family amounts to more than that! Not only are we being oppressed, we're not even allowed to consdog meat. We've had enough of such miserable days!" Harry was a man who was well-versed in stirring people up.
After all, he knew that mentioning the ban on dog meat would rile the others up.
"Comrades! Let's go!" Even though three members had returned to their seats, five others followed behind Harry.
Right at this moment, Sean barged in the door. He walked in with a frigid look in his eyes. Shadowing behind him were two rows of bodyguards dressed in blacsurrounded everyone in the They conference room. The Ivory's senior members were taken aback.
Alyssa and Colene also had surprised looks on their faces.
Then, Sean turned to his side and gestured politely for someone to enter.
A tall man in a black coat marched confidently into the room as he watched everyone with his sharp and vicious eyes.
