The Supreme Soldier in the City
Chapter 501: 511 Lawless
Chapter 501: Chapter 511 Lawless
Samuel Johnson was truly furious at this moment, shouting, “You guys are on the island now; if I try to find someone to rush over, is there still time? If he posts the video online, would it be any use even if I catch him? You’re asked to apologize, then apologize. If you don’t want your dad to step down, then you better go apologize.”
Rachel Wilson heard her father was annoyed and knew an apology was inevitable. If her father really stepped down, who would fear her then, and her superior living conditions would dissolve into nothing. She gritted her teeth and said to Easton Johnson, “Make them stop.”
Easton Johnson let out a sigh of relief and promptly shouted, “Stop fighting.”
The City Maintenance Squad really didn’t want to fight anymore; it was quite frustrating to get into such a brawl. Though the wounds weren’t severe, blood was splattered all over, feeling miserable. Hearing Easton Johnson speaking, they instantly all backed away.
Sarah Grandy immediately shouted, “Hey hey, why did you all stop? I haven’t had enough fun yet.”
Sandra echoed, “A bunch of big men, why did you suddenly stop fighting? Are you guys even men?”
With the crowd retreating, the spectators knew they were backing down. Hearing the two women shouting, the people around suddenly found courage, joining in to jeer, hurling unpleasant words that made Easton Johnson’s group embarrassed. They all fervently wished they could find a place to hide, secretly annoyed at Rachel Wilson for causing such trouble that embarrassed them.
Rachel Wilson’s face turned blue then white. She had never apologized to anyone before, and now apologizing to James Brown was harder than death for her.
But for her father’s position, she had no choice but to suppress her anger, wearing a stormy face, and inching towards James Brown, her dead fish-like eyes rolling, opening her mouth yet unable to utter a single word.
Sarah Grandy disliked this woman intensely, rolling her eyes, said, “Hey, madwoman, what are you coming over for? You wanna start a fight?” With that, she swung her arms eagerly, thinking hitting this woman would surely be satisfying.
Rachel Wilson withdrew two steps, cautiously watching Sarah Grandy, truly afraid Sarah Grandy might hit her, glaring and shouting, “You little slut, call me that again, and I’ll skin you.”
Sarah Grandy stepped forward confidently and said, “Madwoman, madwoman, I called you that, how’s that? Got the guts to hit me? I’ve been wanting to give you a beating for ages.”
Rachel Wilson retreated another two steps. To really face off with Sarah Grandy one-on-one, she would definitely win due to her larger build. Sarah Grandy wasn’t short, but she was considerably slimmer. However, seeing so many people present, she was hit by Sarah Grandy and Sandra earlier. In her eyes, Sarah Grandy and Sandra seemed to be protecting James Brown, thus treating Sarah Grandy as a Queen Rose level, not daring to actually confront Sarah.
Easton Johnson cursed Rachel Wilson’s ancestors in his mind. She was supposed to apologize, yet she started arguing. Can this matter still be resolved? He hastily coughed several times to remind Rachel.
Rachel Wilson then remembered her purpose for coming over, her face twisted with difficulty, taking a deep breath, showing an expression worse than crying, she said to Sarah Grandy, “I’m not talking to you little girl, but… but… but… about this matter, I’m sorry, please give me back the video.”
Rachel Wilson struggled to say those three words ‘sorry’, immediately let out a long sigh, then reached out to James Brown, thinking that saying these three words was giving him immense face, surely he would return the video.
Unfortunately, it was only her assumption. Others saw no sincerity in her apology, Sandra puckered her lips, saying, “What do you mean by this? Apology?”
Rachel Wilson glared and shouted, “I said sorry, what more do you want?”
“Oh wow, is this your attitude for saying sorry?”
“Exactly, look at that expression, it’s like you’re trying to rob us, where’s the apology in that?”
“I’ve lived so long and never seen someone apologize with an attitude like this. With such a demeanor, she expects forgiveness, wonder how her parents taught her.”
“Her father is from the City Maintenance Squad, these people never reason, how could they raise a daughter who does? Saying sorry is giving you big face.”
“Pity we don’t want her mercy; fight more if you dare. If they beat us, we’ll give them the video.”
“Why do we have to forgive because you say sorry? On what grounds?”
“Exactly, you think you’re Mr. Ruler or Empress Dowager, and your words are golden? We have to comply?”
Sarah Grandy and Sandra teamed up, making Rachel Wilson’s face turn ashen with anger, almost about to blow up a few times. Easton Johnson quickly grabbed Rachel Wilson’s arm, preventing her from cursing further.
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is indeed our fault. We are here to apologize, hoping you great people won’t hold it against a woman.”
Easton Johnson stepped in to mediate, speaking very courteously, but Sarah Grandy and Sandra gave him no face at all. Sandra snorted and said, “If you could beat us today, would you be apologizing?”
Easton Johnson was rendered speechless with embarrassment. They never reasoned with anyone first when doing things, but now in this situation, they could only smile and say, “I know you all are remarkable people, it was us who were ignorant.”
Sarah Grandy pointed at Rachel Wilson and said, “This woman once told us to kneel and apologize to her, even let our precious daughter kneel and apologize to her son. We won’t be as unrefined as she is, nor will we make it hard for kids. Now let’s do to this woman what she wanted us to do and then we’ll let her off.”
Sandra gave a commendatory look to Sarah Grandy and said to Rachel Wilson, “Yeah, this woman is just bullying others because she’s got backing, today we’ll let her taste the flavor of being bullied.”
If this request was directly brought up by James Brown and the others, it would truly be humiliating, but these were the very words Rachel Wilson forced on James Brown and the others before. Now that Sarah Grandy and Sandra are doing the same, it doesn’t feel humiliating but rather satisfying, even the onlookers started to stir things up.
“Exactly, making others kneel and confess; if she wants to apologize, she should kneel too.”
“If she doesn’t kneel, we can’t forgive her. People like her need to be dealt with harshly.”
“Otherwise, she won’t learn her lesson; just because she has an official dad, she thinks she can disregard others. Now let her taste what it’s like to be disregarded.”
“Kneel, kneel!”
The crowd got more and more excited. Although Rachel Wilson didn’t have conflicts with others, her arrogance and domineering manner, plus the bad impression of the City Maintenance Squad, made everyone angry but afraid to speak out usually. Now, seeing them being suppressed, they all had the pleasure of kicking someone when they’re down.
Though James Brown couldn’t do anything to them now, Rachel Wilson wasn’t afraid of the crowd at all. Hearing those people mocking her, she was immediately enraged, jumping up and cursing, “Damn you all, do you all want to die, don’t believe I won’t skin you alive.”
Seeing Rachel Wilson still maintaining such an attitude, the crowd became even more enraged, condemning Rachel Wilson one after another.
“Beat them, beat them, get all these rioters!” shouted Rachel Wilson loudly to the City Maintenance Squad members.
But none of the City Maintenance Squad members moved a muscle. Although they were usually arrogant, they weren’t that stupid. Now that public indignation was aroused, fighting the crowd would truly lead to a mass incident. Not only did they not fight, but they even stepped back two paces.
“Damn you all, you bunch of bastards, dare not listen to me, don’t believe I won’t get my father to fire all of you?”
Those City Maintenance Squad members were furious. This woman usually bossed them around relying on her father’s authority, and now that trouble arose, she still wasn’t thinking of calming things down but wanted to cause more trouble, that’s truly causing harm.
“Easton Johnson, you’re dead, how did you lead people, your position as a section chief won’t last.” Finding those squad members not following her, Rachel Wilson vented her anger on Easton Johnson.
Easton Johnson clenched his fists tightly, fire nearly spewing from his eyes, suddenly shouted angrily, “Shut up, I don’t need you to boss me around, without my command, no one is allowed to act, all step back.”
“You… you… Easton Johnson, you’ve turned traitor.” Rachel Wilson was so upset that she jumped around. These City Maintenance Squad members usually acted like her servants, doing whatever she asked, and now none of them listened to her—it was unbearable.
Easton Johnson snorted coldly, “You handle it on your own; but let me remind you, if you don’t sort this out, Captain Johnson’s position might not be secure.”
Rachel Wilson’s expression froze suddenly, a terrifying thought occurred to her. If her father’s power really diminished, these squad members wouldn’t listen to her ever again. She was already experiencing the frustration of being unable to command anyone now, and if it continued like this, life would be impossible.
Finally, she stopped exploding in anger, slowly turned around again to face James Brown, but the expression on her face was still ugly, and her facial muscles were twitching as if she was making some significant decision.
