Cooper was not very happy about the idea.
Sunny smiled. “Who told you that we should trade Noel’s leg with Nick’s? Rather than letting Python
break Noel’s leg, why not let Nick do it himself?”
Cooper was taken aback. “Nick will do it himself?”
Sunny leaned forward and suggested earnestly, “Travis’ leg is broken, but he’s safe Not to mention that
he will still be able to get out of bed and walk after half a year of recuperation. I heard that Python is a
cruel man, but he only captured Noel to force the Wickams into compromising. So, what’s in it for them if
they delay their plan in making a move on Noel?”
Cooper was stunned. “Are you saying that Python has other plans?”
Sunny drank his tea from the teacup. “Python is the leader of a local mafia in Madripur. All the
businesses that he’s involved in are illegal and of unknown origin. Moreover, their goods usually travel by
sea and will have to pass through the Wickams’ territory. Besides, Travis Brown isn’t in any danger.
“However, his son getting beaten up out there is equivalent to the Wickams slapping him in the face, so
he’s only giving the Wickams a hard time because he feels that he’s been embarrassed.
“The Wickams earn money through the waterway too, so if the two families were to fall out with each
other, both families would suffer a huge loss in terms of business interests.
“Python’s captured Arthur’s son and is forcing the Wickams to explain themselves because he’s certain
that Arthur will never let his son suffer. But of course, if Arthur refuses to compromise, Noel will still have
to suffer a little”Cooper suddenly understood something.
‘This indeed makes sense.
‘Given Python’s temperament, if his son has been beaten to the extent that he has to be hospitalized,
Noel’s leg should’ve been broken long ago. However, Python has only kidnapped Noel and asked the
Wickams to explain themselves, or else Noel will suffer hell.
“He’s indeed a ruthless man that excels in torturing others, so Noel will have to suffer a lot even if he
doesn’t have to die at his hands.
“Python has obtained the upper hand this time and is planning to use this incident to his advantage to
make things difficult for the Wickams. This won’t only avenge his son but also get him more bargaining
chips to talk the Wickams into giving him more benefits that he needs and wants.
‘As a result of that, the Wickams will fall behind in this mutual relationship, and Python will make a
fortune out of this. This has always been Python’s most significant trait. He’s the type of person that will
never let go of his prey once he gets his fangs into the flesh.
‘Therefore, everyone in the circle knows it’s impossible to get rid of him as soon as he gets his eyes on
someone.
‘And Arthur isn’t a fool either. He’s afraid that he will get overwhelmed in the future if he hands anything
that Python asks for to him now That’s why he’s been stalling him to buy time and wanted Nick and me to
step forward.
‘Nick is the eldest son of the Wickams and my biological nephew, so he knows that once he gets Nick to
make a move, I’ll definitely not stand aside and watch as Nick makes a deal with the devil. As soon as Iget involved in this matter, Python will turn to me and start to wrap himself around me, then swallow me
whole in the end.”
Cooper snorted. “Arthur wants to be the third party that will benefit the most out of this situation while
Python and I are at each other’s neck. What a cunning piece of sh*t. Master Southern, so what do you
mean by letting Nick do it?”
Sunny gave off a pregnant smirk. “Nick is the eldest son of the Wickams, so he’ll be the one to teach
Noe! a lesson. Firstly, this will glorify the Wickams, and secondly, Python will feel that the Dragoneers
have received the respect that they deserve. After knowing that Arthur doesn’t have the guts to do what’s
right. and Nick is actually the ballsy one out of the father-and-son duo, who do you think Python will trust
more?
Nick or Arthur?”
Cooper’s expression lit up. “So that’s how it is. By doing this, we’ll be able to shut the mouths of those
from the Wickams. After all, Noel surviving this incident is already a plus for them.
“After that, apart from Noel’s survival, this will also show them that Nick is able to salvage Python from
total embarrassment and relieve his wrath. And if even Python approves of Nick, then the Wickams will
be proven wrong again by their choice of heir. That’s a total smack in the face.”
Sunny chuckled and clinked glasses with him. “That’s what I want to see, a smack in their face. We must
make Arthur take a good look at how much longer the Wickams can go on without Nick’s leadership.”
With less than one day left, Python sent someone to the Wickams to convey his message.
Martha wandered up and down anxiously. “We don’t even know if Noel is dead or alive now. Is there
really. nothing we can do?”Arthur held onto his cup of tea but had not taken a sip from it. He had not been able to eat or drink for
several days, and his temper was not at its peak either. “What’s the use of walking around anxiously?
Will that help to get Noel released?”
