Nick lowered his gaze. “You’ve always treated me with great kindness and think so highly of me. I’ll definitely try my best to live up to your expectations. Otherwise, I, Nick Wickam, will die an ugly death.” He took a step back and knelt on the floor. When he was about to get down to his limbs, Sunny stopped and supported him. “Get up. There’s no need for you to kneel.”
Nick looked up at him. “Master ”
Sunny helped him up. “You should call me godfather now”
Nick smiled. “Godfather”
“Good” Sunny nodded with satisfaction and looked at him. “Mahina and I will travel back to Southeast Eurasia with you tomorrow.”
“You don’t have to do so. I’ll go back by myself”
“No. If I don’t go there with you, the Wickams” elders might even one-up you in seniority’s name. You’re my godson now, so I must be there to support you.”
Dylan and the others laughed loudly, feeling happy for their boss.
A few days later, in the Wickams’ residence back in Southeast Eurasia….
Martha was talking with several elders of the family in front of the portraits of the Wickams” ancestors, obviously hoping that they could help her son through their connections.
“Mrs Wickam, The Dragoneers isn’t a gang to be trifled with. What do you expect us to do now that Noel has gotten himself into such big trouble?”
That’s right. Noel has broken Python Brown’s son’s leg. Do you really think the Dragoneers will let this go? In my opinion, our family has completely offended the Dragoneers this time.”
Martha became anxious when she heard the analysis. “Then what should we do? Must Noel break one leg too in order to appease them?” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Those elders did not utter a single word.
The Wickams and the Dragoneers had always been minding each other’s business and not interfering with each other-that was how peace was kept throughout all these years. Besides that, Python was vengeful, and his only son, Travis Brown, had had his leg broken by Noel. Python would definitely not let Noel go so easily.
However, with the Wickams’ current strength, Python would not even care who they were at all, so who would dare to lend them a helping hand now?
One of the elders thought for a moment. “It’d be great if Nick were here.”
All the other elders knew very well that Nick and Noel were half brothers, but comparing the two now, the former was undoubtedly the better leader.
“Nick?” Martha was upset by what she heard. “He left the Wickams years ago, so what can he do? Do you think he’ll help Noel sincerely?”
The elders remained silent.
At that moment, Arthur arrived at the manor’s entrance, and Martha hurried forward. “Dear, we still don’t have a way to save Noel. What should we do? Python said that he’ll only give us one week, and Noel is
still in his…”
“You’re not the only person who’s anxious about his safety, alright?” Arthur’s expression dimmed.
One of the elders stepped forward. “Arthur, what did Nick say? Did he refuse?”
Martha was surprised. “You actually went to find Nick? Why? What makes you think that Nick will help. Noel? I would be exhilarated as long as he doesn’t betray Noel at this time and leave him to die at Python’s hands.”
“What do you know?” Arthur glared at her with a gloomy expression. “Nick got the chance to get acquainted with Python when he and Cooper were doing business in Madripur back then. If Nick doesn’t show up, do you really think Cooper will be willing to help us?”
Cooper Winslet was an entrepreneur, and his businesses could be found all over Southeast Eurasia, and all his nightclubs had been making him a lot of money in recent years. He was also Nick’s biological uncle, but because of the death of Nick’s biological mother, Amelia, Cooper had since cut off all ties with the Wickams.
Arthur started the Wickam family from scratch, but to put it harshly, he relied a lot on his wife’s family. And in the end, not many men could stand the public criticism that kept pointing out that he was a toy boy who only knew how to rely on his wife.
It was so serious that even Cooper looked down on him.
He did not like Nick too much because Nick had a better relationship with Cooper than with his father.
