Chapter 43: Is He an Imposter?
"Please, Ares of the W Gang! Please help us fight the gangsters!"
Charles and his men all kneeled down like pilgrims, Charles in particular. Imploration was written on his face.
Yesterday, an array of fierce gangsters troubled him. He tried hard to defense, but couldn't turn the tide. That was why he came here to ask Richard for help.
It was a dramatic scene. Residents living up in the buildings, members of the Smith family being caught, hooligans about to escape, Catherine, Jane and Eddy standing behind Richard were all startled. They were all too shocked to say a word, dumbfounded. They wondered if they were hallucinating.
'General Carr is kneeling at Richard? How could that be possible?'
What a shock to them all!
Everyone stood still, looking at Charles and Richard, especially Catherine and Jane, feeling so unbelievable.
'Richard's the Ares of the W Gang?'
Down on the street, Oliver was being pressed on the ground. Looking at Charles kneeling at Richard, he suddenly realized something and showed distain on his face.
He got it! They must be putting on a show again!
This good-for-nothing Richard loved playacting. It must be pre-arranged!
"How could it be possible that General Carr is kneeling down at a scum like Richard?"
Oliver looked at Charles and sneered loudly, "This General Carr must be an imposter! The same one as last time! Don't be fooled!" Everyone fell silent after he finished.
"That's right. General Carr's one of the greatest men in Evento. He won't kneel down at anyone!"
"We're almost fooled by that bastard Richard! This asshole has a good knack of playacting!" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
"Let go of us Smiths, or you'll pay for it when the real General Carr comes!"
The next minute, other Smiths were also stirred, yelling and cursing loudly.
"It's fake again?"
On the balcony of the apartment above, Jane gave Richard a cold eye, "Richard, you're doing it again. What's the meaning of it? Your show can't change anything! You just can't change your own nature!" Eddy also sighed. Catherine frowned with more despair in her eyes.
Maria held Richard's hand, "Dad, what's a playacting?"
"A kind of show." Richard explained.
"Great, I love shows!" Maria smiled.
"Don't corrupt the kid!"
Catherine goggled at him and pulled Maria back.
Just as Jane was about to scold Richard, there came a tumult down the street. Everyone looked down.
It was Nicholas. He led a group of fighters under the order of George.
Nicholas was beaten in the hotel last time. He was still wrapped with bandage, but it didn't cover his fierce. Nicholas' arrival exhilarated Oliver, "Master Miller's here! Master, help us!"
Nicholas led his people here, but seeing Charles kneeling at Richard over there, he was stunned. Then he became furious and stepped forward, pointing at Charles, "It's you imposter again! Are you obsessed with pretending General Carr?"
As he spoke, he gave a pinch on the epaulets on Charles' shoulders. Then he laughed out loud, "Wow, look like a real one. Must have cost you a lot." Charles glared at him, "Son of a bitch, even the head of your family dares not to offend me!"
Charles slapped Nicholas hard on his face with a clear splat. It was so strong that Nicholas was thrown to the ground, his vision blurring and his mouth bleeding.
Nicholas pressed his face, which was red because of anger. He stared at Charles with his scarlet eyes and gnarled, "You imposter! How dare you hit me! You're doomed! Even Jesus can't save you today!"
