Chapter 300: Something Has Happened to the Gold Family
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Gabriel Gold, who are you to threaten me like this in my own home?” Third Master Gold wasn’t afraid of the other.?‘Who cares if you’re my elder brother? How dare you insult my precious granddaughter? It’s good enough that I haven’t beaten you up here.’
“What do you mean? Am I not telling the truth? Your family is quite pitiful. When you were in Chicago, you guys lived in fear and had to treat everyone in the family so respectfully. I’m sure you don’t know that everyone voted for your family to leave Chicago.”
To be honest, Third Master Gold had indeed been unaware of this.
He was rather amiable and hadn’t offended anyone in Chicago. He had even been friendly with everyone else. So why had everyone voted to chase his family out of Chicago?
“Let me tell you why then: It was because your family was too powerful. Everyone wanted a share of your business. If your family remained in Chicago, your family would eventually take over the company. What would we get then?”
Third Master Gold narrowed his eyes, resisting the urge to punch his elder brother. “So you mean that we still won’t be able to return to Chicago even if Kimberly marries into the family.”
Gabriel Gold chuckled. “That’s right. You’re not as foolish as I thought; I was just lying to you earlier. Do you think the Gold family would allow you back? They’ve already betrayed you once. Don’t you think they’d be stirring up trouble for themselves if they allow you to return?”
Third Master Gold was incensed. He had the urge to rush back to Chicago and take revenge on his family.
“Oh right, I haven’t introduced you to each other. This is a Muay Thai master from Thailand; I personally witnessed him killing an elephant. I wonder if the master you’re inviting here is that strong.”
The Muay Thai master was named Zac Gold.
He threw a punch toward a tree that had a trunk with a width of a whole arm span. Yet, a single punch felled the tree!
Both Kimberly Gold and her grandpa were left in shock. They had initially been confident that Finn Taylor would be able to subdue the other fighter, but now, they were no longer certain of that.
‘Is my fate already decided? Will I have to leave my grandpa and marry into that family?’?Just as she was contemplating her future, someone pushed the door open.
Finn Taylor then walked in.
Unlike before, Kimberly Gold’s expression didn’t light up even after seeing him. Now, she even blamed herself.
She wasn’t just worried about herself; she was also concerned about Finn Taylor’s safety. After witnessing just how powerful Zac Gold was, she could only imagine how seriously injured Finn Taylor would get in a fight against him.
‘If I had known just how strong that man was, I wouldn’t have called Finn Taylor over! Given my understanding of the latter, he will definitely stay until he resolves the matter. It won’t matter what others say.’?
“Kimberly, tell me everything that happened,” Finn Taylor said as he looked at the tree in the yard. He was now certain that something had happened to the Gold family.
“Are you the master they were talking about? Come here. This is Master Zac Gold; why don’t you two have a go?” Gabriel Gold quickly brought Zac Gold out.
“Third Master Gold, don’t hide it from me. Tell me exactly what’s going on.” Finn Taylor glanced at the two strangers warily.?‘From the looks of it, this isn’t just any simple problem.’
Third Master Gold then filled the other in on everything that had just happened.
Upon hearing the explanation, Finn Taylor couldn’t help but chuckle.?‘I thought that something major had happened, but it’s nothing more than a duel.’
He glanced at the so-called master of Muay Thai in front of him. “Alright then. How are we going to have this duel? Are we going to have any rules, or is this going to be freestyle?”
Before Zac Gold finished his words, Gabriel Gold spoke up. “Don’t—we’re all family. There’s no need to take anyone’s life here.”
Freestyle meant that there were no rules and that even taking one’s life was acceptable.
Gabriel Gold was only here to take Kimberly Gold away. He didn’t want to put another life at stake unnecessarily.
“Alright, I guess you’ve saved your own life with those words.” Finn Taylor had deliberately posed that question. His question hadn’t been meant for Zac Gold but Gabriel Gold.
He wanted to understand the latter’s attitude toward Kimberly Gold. If the latter went all out just to achieve his goals, Finn Taylor naturally wouldn’t let him off so easily either.
However, it seemed like the old man still had a little conscience.
Finn Taylor and Zac Gold took their places.
Gabriel Gold’s expression was unusually calm. After all, everyone had personally witnessed just how strong this Muay Thai master was.
There was no doubt about it.
On the other hand, Third Master Gold and Kimberly Gold were fraught with worry.?‘What if something happens to Finn Taylor here? Besides, both of us know of his true identity. If something were to happen to Master Peregrine, the Gold family would definitely face retribution.’?
Third Master Gold was clear about this, yet he was sure that his elder brother wouldn’t believe him even if he were to tell the latter the truth now.
The latter would simply shake it off as a made-up story.
Bang!
The duel began, but it ended in the blink of an eye. Nobody had clearly seen what had just taken place, but the duel had already ended.
Zac Gold clutched his stomach and crumbled onto the ground, unable to move. On the contrary, Finn Taylor was standing there, calm and collected.
Earlier on, everyone had placed their bets on Zac Gold, thinking that Finn Taylor would be in trouble this time. Yet, the results were so unexpected.
“Boohoo.” Gabriel Gold was an interesting character. He had been so full of himself just moments earlier, but he now gave no care to his own dignity and broke down in tears on the ground.
He was one of the most senior members of Chicago’s Gold family and maintained a strict demeanor in front of the family. Yet, he was behaving no differently from a young child now.
Finn Taylor frowned. “Why are you crying?”
