Chapter 257 Really Daring to Refuse Responsibility?

Carissa was shocked to hear this and almost dropped her jaw in disbelief. "Are you kidding me? A bunch of gangsters, riding in a beat-up car, came over to help that toad remove weeds and fix the wall? Are they crazy?" she asked Omar, not sure if he had mistaken someone else for Lachlan.

Omar's eyelids twitched as he quickly covered Carissa's mouth with his hand. He glanced nervously out the car window before letting out a sigh of relief when he saw no one around them. In the next second, he started up the car and drove away with this foolish woman.

His face was filled with seriousness and anger as he warned her sternly, "Watch your mouth! Don't ever mess with Mr. Willis again or we will die! Do you understand me? Jeremy and his crew were just cleaning up after him; Mr. Willis is way more powerful than them!"

Carissa looked at Omar in shock and confusion. The guy who used to be bullied by her in school had become so powerful?

Later that afternoon...

Lachlan stood in the yard looking at this old house, his eyes filled with complex emotions now that all the weeds were cleared away from it and everything inside had been tidied up.

According to Sierra, their parents' bodies had been cremated by her master using sky burial rituals so there was nothing left behind for them to bury properly.

Lachlan could only wait for an auspicious day before giving his parents a proper burial.

"Brother-in-law, do you want us to renovate this house? We can lay new floors or replace doors and windows," Mason asked while wiping sweat off his forehead which left him looking like a mess. Dennis and Jeremy were also dirty from working on cleaning up around here too.

"No need; let's keep it as it is! If we change everything, then it won't be what it used to be," Lachlan replied nostalgically while shaking his head gently.

He smiled at everyone present then patted Mason on the shoulder saying, "Mason, these people are all trustworthy right?"

Mason paused for a moment before nodding, "Yes!"

Everyone who came today wasn't an expert from the Lowe family but rather loyal friends of Mason who followed him wholeheartedly from beginning till end.

"Alright then. I'll prepare some suitable martial arts techniques for them later on so they can come pick them up at my place someday soon since we're all brothers here," Lachlan said cheerfully while looking over at Dennis and the others. "Thanks everyone for coming today."

Lachlan had observed each of these people carefully, noting their physical conditions and other details. He planned to create a few sets of exercises based on their individual body types when he returned home.

Nowadays, Lachlan could even create some simple exercises himself. These exercises may not be as advanced as the "Fierce Phoenix Heart Sutra" or the "Tiger Subduing Art" that he gave to Emerson, but they were most suitable for these people.

Since they were all Mason's confidants, Lachlan didn't mind mentioning their strength.

At this moment, Dennis, Jeremy and Peter were extremely excited.

"No trouble! No trouble!"

"It's our honor to work for Mr. Willis!"

"Mr. Willis, you're too polite..."

These guys expressed themselves one after another with excitement on their faces.

They had done some work for Lachalan and now the benefits came so quickly!

Who was Lachalan? He was someone who could knock down a group of experts from the Lowe family with just one move! Thinking about how such a person said he would give them exercises to improve their strength made them feel excited!!

"Mr. Willis, if you have any work in the future, please remember to call us!"

Dennis smiled and approached Lachlan eagerly.

The others also nodded in agreement with shining eyes.

Lachlan looked speechless...

These guys tasted sweetness once and now they were even more enthusiastic...

After returning home that evening, Lachlan picked up Nora and Miranda and had a meal with Mason and his subordinates. One reason was to express gratitude, and the other was to let Nora interact with more people.

Two more days passed!

On this day, Lachlan dropped Nora off at the kindergarten, glanced at the date, and a hint of coldness appeared on his face.

It had been five days since giving Philip an ultimatum over phone call last time but there was still no money coming through!! Heh heh... they really dared not pay up, huh?

Lachlan snorted coldly; this time around he did not make another phone call but drove straight towards the McLaughlin family instead!

An inconspicuous van secretly followed behind his Bentley Mulsanne.

Inside the car was a private detective who received 50 thousand from Kayden while secretly tracking Lachlan.

Isa had left by now but he left Kayden here purposely. It can be said that Kayden stayed in Edoland just so that he could replace ways to annoy or even deal with Lachlan by any means necessary. Naturally... he always revolved around Lachlan.

A pair of eyes constantly staring at him.

Meanwhile... inside the McLaughlin family's villa!

A man in a blood-red robe sat cross-legged in the living room, emitting an eerie aura. Philip's wife Kristina and son Darwin sat beside him, seemingly waiting for something, but Philip was nowhere to be seen. "Is Lachlan coming today?" the blood-robed man asked coldly, his tone laced with a sinister vibe.

He was Butch Ghost, hired by Kristina from the Britt family as an expert to deal with Lachlan. Butch Ghost was not a typical warrior; he was a practitioner of dark magic.

"He probably will. That guy is so arrogant!" Darwin replied.

Kristina snorted disdainfully. "Lachlan said if we don't give him the money within five days, he'll come knocking on our door."

Butch Ghost spoke in a chilling and ominous voice, "I've set up my formation already. If he doesn't show up, I'll take those 50 million dollars anyway! Got it?"

Hearing this made Kristina wince slightly but she dared not offend him due to her father's warning about showing respect towards Butch Ghost. He had formidable skills and belonged to an evil sect called "Ghost Plaque Sect". They could not afford to provoke them.

"Yes! Mr. Ghost, you can rest assured that we won't shortchange you no matter what happens," Kristina promised.

Darwin chimed in, "Mr. Ghost, you charge fairly. Only 50 million dollars compared to that brat Lachlan who demanded 80 million from us! We definitely won't default on payment."

At this moment, he never considered that Lachlan initially saved his mother and helped deal with Emerson just for 10 million dollar.

It was their own various provocations that angered Lachlan and made him demand a huge sum of money.

And now, they were turning around and spending money to hire someone to deal with Lachlan, and they even thought that spending 50 million dollar was "too generous"?

No one really knew if they were clever or foolish!

"That's good," Butch Ghost said coldly.

Kristina and Darwin exchanged glances before checking the time nervously.

"Hmph... What if Lachlan doesn't show up?" Darwin muttered uneasily.

Kristina sneered, "Was it all just empty talk? However, I doubt he would dare come here anyway... It's such a pity though..."

She inwardly lamented because if Lachlan didn't show up, then they would have wasted their chance of getting rid of him along with those 50 million!

Suddenly at this moment however Butch Ghost opened his eyes wide revealing an eerie grin spreading across his face...

"Did he come?"
