Chapter 500
Even members of Emerald Gang agreed with Sophie.
It was true that Emerald Gang was established by Quinton. However, as his son simply wasn't suited to lead the
gang, the members did not want Mark to lead them.
That was because their futures would not be guaranteed with a gang leader who was not capable.
Human beings were all afraid to die, and they were no exception.
“All right. You guys should leave first. You shouldn't be here. Don't let the paparazzi take photos of you being here
with Emerald Gang.”
They still had a long journey ahead of them, and Mark did not want them to give up on music because of him.
“Mark, we really care about you. Since you are not suited to lead a gang, you shouldn't force it. You're not
indispensable in a huge organization like Emerald Gang, right?”
It just did not make sense for him to continue doing that.
“You guys are not me, so don't make decisions on my behalf. All right. I don't want to talk about it anymore. You
guys should really leave now.”
Mark had already made his decision.
If that was the case, they should not try to change his mind.
“Mark, are you chasing us away now?” Sunny looked at Mark in disbelief.
Aren't we best buddies? We can't even speak our minds now?
Although Mark felt bad seeing Sunny like that, he kept a poker face and remained cold.
“Sophie, please take them away. You guys shouldn't be here,” Mark said firmly.
Everything that needed to be said had already been said.
Sophie glanced at Mark and asked directly, “Are you sure about this? Are you cutting all ties with us now?”
Mark was struggling internally.
However, he had to set clear boundaries for their sake.

“That's right. I'm cutting ties with all of you now. From today onward, let's go our separate ways and not cross paths
ever again.”
“Mark, how can you do that? Didn't you say we have to stay together? Even if you are facing difficulties, we can
deal with them together.”
How could he say such things easily!
“Mark, don't act rashly. No matter what it is, let's face it together.” It was too dangerous for him to be here alone.
After all, something similar was likely to happen again next time.
“That's enough. Please leave now. Otherwise, don't blame me for not showing any mercy.” Mark pointed a gun at
them.
Sophie and Sunny were speechless when they saw that.
“Mark!”
Sunny was just not able to comprehend what was going on. Even if they were not seeing eye to eye, Mark should
not be behaving in that manner.
He's making me so sad.
“Sophie, let's go.” Sunny was really hurt. He had never expected things to turn out that way.
Sophie nodded before saying to Mark, “Mark, don't think too much. We will leave now.”
She knew that Mark did not feel good either.
However, Sophie did not approve of Mark's behavior.
After all, they were such good friends, and they were only speaking the truth.
There was no need for him to act that way.
With that, Sophie and the other members of the band left.
As Mark looked at their departing figures, he felt an excruciating pain in his heart. How did things turn out this way?
He was already regretting it.
Nevertheless, there was no point regretting it since there was nothing he could do about the situation.
“Mark, actually, they are right. Emerald Gang is not for you. It would be too dangerous for the gang if you continue
staying here.”
“That's right. We have to consider this again.” Mark was indeed not suitable to be there.
“Everyone, please don't worry! I will work hard to ensure the success of Emerald Gang.”
No one was born ready for anything.
As long as it was something Mark set his mind on, he would definitely do it well.
“Mark, some things are inborn. You're just not cut out for this. On the other hand, I think the girl who was here just
now would be a suitable person for the job.”
That powerful presence was exactly what they needed.
“Don't get any ideas about her. She has got nothing to do with Emerald Gang.”
In fact, that was Mark's greatest worry.
No matter how capable Sophie was, she was still an ordinary girl. She should not be dragged into things like that.
“Mark, she's really a good candidate for this.”
“I've already told you not to get any ideas about her.”
So what if she's suitable? She belongs to the stage, but hasn't she also left the stage?
Mark loved Sophie so much and only hoped that she would be able to live the life she wanted.
He did not want anyone to interfere with her life.
No matter what he said, the others were already certain that Sophie was the best person to lead Emerald Gang. As
such, it was their wish for the girl to manage the gang.
Even though they had stopped bringing up the matter in front of Mark, they went to look for Quinton and told him
everything that happened that day.
“Boss, no matter what, we watched Mark grow up and know his character well. He's really not the right person to
lead Emerald Gang.”
In fact, they were aware all along that Mark was not suited for Emerald Gang.

But after what happened that day, they had no choice but to speak about it. After all, it was a problem that had to
be solved.
Quinton looked at his men who had been with him for over twenty years.
Indeed, they still ended up speaking their thoughts.
“What does that mean? I was the one who established Emerald Gang. I've built it up single-handedly, and it's my
decision to let Mark take over the organization. Are you guys doubting my decision now?” Quinton spoke in such a
low and commanding voice that no one dared to speak any further.
However, for the sake of Emerald Gang's future, they could not back down at such a crucial moment.
“Boss, we have listened to you all the time, but as this concerns our future, we have to take it seriously.”
Quinton was at a loss for words.
In fact, he knew that Mark was not a suitable candidate.
However, other than him, there was no one else.
“Boss, we think Sophie is not bad. She's the girl who came here to challenge us last time.”
“You're willing to let a girl be your leader?”
In fact, Quinton knew that Sophie was a perfect candidate for the role and hoped that she could join them.
“Yup. We only care about abilities. It does not matter if our leader is a man or a woman.” After all, men and women
are equal in the modern day.”
Quinton did not reply.
“Boss, I think you should give it some serious consideration.”
Quinton remained silent for a moment before saying, “All right. I got it. You guys can leave first.”
After they left, Quinton rang Mark at once and told him to come over. When Mark received his father's call, he
arrived soon after.
Quinton let out a sigh when he saw Mark.
“Are things not possible between you and Sophie?” It would be much easier if Sophie became his daughter-in-law.
