Chapter 14: The Mad Enrico
"Have you heard? Thomas is dead!"
"Is it true? He's the head of the Lewis family, one of the four major families in Freton!"
"It's true. They say the Tiger Gang mutinied and not only killed their captain but also turned Thomas into a sieve. His body is in a terrible state."
"You talk like you've seen it with your own eyes."
"I did see it. Thomas's body is still hanging at the gates of the Lewis family, and no one dares to take it down!"
"Really? I'm going to take a look too!"
More curious people hurriedly rushed to the Lewis family.
Inside the Lewis family mansion, the young master of the Lewis family, Enrico, clenched his fist and pounded hard on the nearby table.
"The Tiger Gang has gone too far!"
He never expected that when his father led the Tiger Gang to eradicate the Miller family, they would encounter a mutiny within the Tiger Gang.
Not to mention that Kevin, who had a personal relationship with him, died.
Even his father didn't survive and was sent to their doorstep by the Tiger Gang's men, hanging there.
At that time, Enrico was on the verge of madness and found a handgun, ready to fight the Tiger Gang to the death.
Unfortunately, under the barrels of dozens of submachine guns, he ultimately didn't dare to open fire.
Even when the Tiger Gang specifically stated that Thomas's body must not be recovered, he clenched his teeth and didn't argue.
They had no concerns that the Lewis family was one of the four major families in Freton, rich and with countless assets!
Military power was the ultimate authority! A businessman who crossed paths with the military only had a dead end.
"No, the influence of the Lewis family is no longer reliable. We need to find another way," Enrico took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and began to seriously contemplate a solution.
Besides the Tiger Gang incident, he also had to deal with the Miller family. There were also other matters to deal with.
However, the Miller family's old mansion is now tightly shut, and none of them are coming out. It seems to be related to Henry.
"You killed my brother, my sister, and even my father died because of you. What's the point of hiding? I swear, regardless of whether you are involved with the Tiger Gang uprising or not, you are all doomed!" Enrico's gaze was chilling, and after a moment of contemplation, he prepared to leave.
Just as he took a couple of steps, he suddenly remembered that Thomas's body was hanging at the front gate. His eyes were filled with fury, but there was nothing he could do.
Not wanting to see that scene, he had to take a detour and leave through the back gate of the Lewis family.
After waiting for a while, the driver pulled the car over, and Enrico got in, instructing, "Provincial Government Office."
"Yes!" replied the driver.
Enrico leaned back in the seat and squinted his eyes.
Although the Tiger Gang is strong, they are not invincible in Freton. The leader of the Provincial Government is the true emperor of Freton, holding the lives and deaths of millions of people in Freton. Even Ravinia will find it difficult to intervene.
Among the four major families in Freton, the Lewis family is ranked the lowest because originally, they were just a simple commercial family.
The mayor of Freton is named Harris!
"The mayor simply can't be bothered with the Tiger Gang soldiers, but I didn't expect them to become so bold. They even killed my father... at the hands of a soldier who didn't even have an official position. I have gained the mayor's favor, and even the mayor's daughter shows me great affection. They will surelyhelp me, then, the soldiers of the Tiger Gang will certainly face consequences!"
"The Miller family must not get away scot-free. Shooting them to death is too easy; I want them to spend the rest of their lives in prison, never to see the light of day again!"
The more Enrico thought, the angrier he became. Suddenly, he remembered something and quickly dialed a number on his phone.
After a moment, a cold-hearted man answered, "Evil Shadow, what do you need?"
The driver, who was driving the car, was startled upon hearing those six words. The steering wheel almost slipped from his grip, and the car swerved before he regained control.
Caught off guard, Enrico fell off his seat, and even his phone dropped.
"Who is this? You connected to our line but didn't speak. Are you playing with us? Do you... want to die?!" The man's voice on the phone turned even colder, and even through the phone, one could feel the murderous intent.
Enrico was so scared that he almost lost his soul. He didn't even bother to get up; instead, he lay on the ground, picking up his phone.
"I want to make a deal!"
"Speak quickly." The voice on the other end of the phone sounded impatient.
"I will offer 50 million US dollars to eliminate the head of the Miller family, as well as Simone, Carlo, and Henry, cutting off one arm and one leg each!"
"You call this a big deal? Are you kidding me? One billion dollars! And that's one billion each!"
"What?" Enrico was shocked, then nodded and said, "Forget it, I won't need you for the task."
"Think it through," a voice on the phone said indifferently. "Once our call is connected, there will be bloodshed. If not the target, then the client."
Enrico sighed in his heart, "Fine, one billion it is, deal!"
"Good!" The voice on the other end hung up without asking for any details about the targets.
Enrico sat in his seat, stunned for a while before coming back to his senses.
He unexpectedly obtained the phone number of Evil Shadow. He only knew that it was an incredibly terrifying assassin organization, capable of killing anyone. This gave him the idea of seeking revenge on the Miller family by injuring them before capturing their people.
He never imagined that the cost would be so high just for injuries, without killing anyone.
"Forget it, once the offer is made, it's made. If they dare to ask for such a high price, it proves they have the ability. The Miller family must have never realized how much their arms and legs are worth!"
Enrico remembered the notorious reputation of Evil Shadow, his eyes becoming cold.
...
"General, why don't you intervene and destroy the entire Lewis family?" Stefano asked curiously, puzzled.
All the actions of the Tiger Legion were done under Henry's instructions, and Henry specifically emphasized not to harm Enrico.
"Causing Isabella to end up like this and simply destroying the Lewis family would be too cheap for them!" Henry stood in front of the sickbed, looking at Isabella's pale and fragile face, unable to bear the pain. His anger intensified.
"The Lewis family must be eradicated, but I want to torment them bit by bit, especially Enrico!"
It was because Enrico had entered politics and achieved success that the Lewis family became more and more arrogant, eventually leading to this series of events.
Otherwise, the Miller family might not have been willing to hand Isabella over to the second young master of the Lewis family.
"I want to plunge him into utter despair, making everyone understand that those who provoke me, will die! Those who provoke my sister will beg for death!"
Stefano's spirit shook, and he lowered his head, shouting, "Yes!"
Henry gently stroked Isabella's head, his eyes filled with determination.
Isabella's face was gentle, her movements incredibly demure.
"The Lewis family has done many evil deeds, and anyone who helps them can't be a good person either. I'm curious to see who Enrico will recruit as helpers," Henry said with a faint smile as he turned and walked out of the ward. "Prepare, I'm going to attend the Costa family's banquet."
"Yes, sir!"
