“Tony, you’re dead if you touch Mr. Lloyd,” Cedric growled as he slammed his fist on the table at the Aicker residence, rising to his feet with a terrifying expression.
“Grandpa, what’s wrong? Why are you so angry? Francesca asked in surprise.
“I just got the news that the East Side gang just kidnapped Mr. Lloyd,” Cedric said, gritting his teeth.
Francesca instantly panicked. “How could this happen? Grandpa, we need to go save him!”
Cedric glanced at her and waved his hand dismissively. “You stay home and rest. Let me handle this”
Francesca insisted, “No, I need to see for myself that he’s okay.”
Cedric conceded. “Fine. Simon, Fran and I are heading to the East Side. Watch the house.”
Simon, Cedric’s senior apprentice, grumbled, “Mr. Aicker, why should we care if Andrew lives or dies? Tony’s not someone we should mess with! He runs the East Side underground. We shouldn’t make an enemy of him.
“You fool!” Cedric snapped. “Lauren and Dylan are already charging into the East Side. This is our chance to show Mr. Lloyd where we stand. We can’t waste this opportunity.”

Cedric’s voice turned cold. “Simon, as my eldest disciple, you have the skills to inherit my legacy, but your vision is pitifully narrow. Learn from Fran. She knows better.”

gaze. “If I’d known we were coming to this dump I wouldn’t have bothered coming.”
Juan laughed maniacally. “You think you’re worthy of seeing my dad? And what’s this about bothered coming‘? You think you had a choice?”

Rocco smirked. “Mr. Madden, have your fun. The kid’s clearly lost his mind from being taken.”
Juan circled Andrew slowly. “I’ll give you credit–you’re still not showing any fear. But soon, you’ll be begging for mercy. If I were you, I’d start begging for mercy now for a quick death.”
“That’s funny. I was about to tell you the same thing,” Andrew replied seriously. “If I were you, I’d untie me now and get on your knees to apologize.”
Juan’s expression twisted with rage as a vein bulged on his forehead. He raised his whip but held back, turning to Rocco with a laugh. “Did you hear this pretty boy? Telling me to beg for mercy? He’s lost his mind!”
