Chapter 482

Lex Callahan, a prideful man, had thrown his pride away for the Callahans. He humbled himself and
knelt before Colson, a man who was many years younger than him.

He only wanted to protect his family. However, Colson only wanted to humiliate them Lex’s face was
pale.

The Callahans were silent.

Only Montgomery remained unfazed. He was determined not to get the others involved in his fight.
Stefon, the patriarch of the Oswalds, arrived with a few policemen close behind him. Although he was
not a very influential man in Cansington, he was still famous around these parts. The Oswalds too had
some power themselves. However, compared to the Watsons and the Xenoses, they were but a
molehill in the face of a mountain. Hearing that Colson had gotten Quay Xenos’s favor, he hurriedly
made his way here.

“Dad.”

Colson walked over to him. He had stuffed a tissue paper in his nostrils. The tissue was spotted with
his blood.



Stefon patted Colson’s back contentedly and said, “You’ve done well. Once we cozy up with the
Xenoses, we’ll surely rise through the ranks. We might even become one of the most powerful families
in Cansington.”

Saying that, he turned to look at the Callahans, who were wearing grim expressions, “Which one of you
hit my son?”




“It was me.” Montgomery stepped forward.

He was twenty-one years old and around 170 centimeters in height. Wearing a fierce expression on his
face, he spat it out.

“I was the one who did it, so don’t get the others involved. My name’s not Montgomery if I didn’t have
the balls to do that.” Colson looked at the security guards and ordered, “Break his legs.”

They nodded. They headed toward Montgomery while cracking their knuckles maliciously, “What are
you planning to do?” Lex stepped forth to stop them. “How could you do this in full view of everyone?”

“What are you doing, grandpa?” Tommy pulled Lex and said to him, “Look at the situation we’re in. Just
let Montgomery shoulder the blame. They won’t let us go otherwise.”

“You spineless b*stard!”

Lex yelled at him, “What did I teach you? We must stand united as a family. He was just standing up for
Megan. Now that something bad happened, you are blaming it on him?” Stefon chuckled, “Joining if
you want to get beaten up too. Anyway, let’s just beat the old man to a pulp.”

A security guard stepped forward and kicked Lex. Lex rolled across the ground. He collapsed to the
ground. He could feel a searing pain all over his body. No Callahan stepped forward.

Except for Montgomery. Clenching his fists, he charged forward howling, “How dare you hit my
grandpa?! I’ll kill you!”

“You can beat him up too,” Stefon ordered. The two security guards charged toward Montgomery.

He was no match for them. In an instant, he was pinned to the ground and beaten up. He groaned in
pain.



The Callahans looked at each other. No one stepped forward to stop the violence.

Lex had gotten up. He sat on the ground and wept.

Montgomery was beaten half-dead and lay motionless on the ground. Then, he was coldly taken away
by the police. Stefon did not wish for things to get out of control. And so, he chose not to involve the
other Callahans.

The Oswalds left.
