An iron rod slipped out of his wide sleeve, and he swung it at Edgar’s head.
Edgar's head started bleeding immediately after he was struck.
Edgar felt dizzy and could not react for a while.
The subordinate tightened his grip on the rod and continued beating him up.
Edgar fell to the ground and groaned in pain.
“B-B*stard! Brodie Wachob, how dare you…”
Edgar cursed out from the ground.
Another kick followed after he cursed out.
After Brodie beat up Edgar, he approached James and Thea. He slightly bent over and apologized, “Ms. Thea, Dragon King, I’m sorry that that dumb*ss, Edgar, is a fool and can’t recognize you two. I’ve already taught him a lesson.”
While speaking, he fell to the ground on his knees and kept kowtowing.
“Please take me in, Dragon King.”
James looked at Brodie.
With his current status and strength, he was too lazy to deal with such gangsters. Others would laugh at him if word got out.
He turned around and looked at Zion, asking, “What’s going on?”
Zion replied helplessly, “This group of people suddenly showed up in this area a few months ago and started demanding a protection fee. They wouldn’t allow us to operate our businesses properly if we didn't pay them. Thus, many people have compromised. I’ve also paid them for a few months, but I really don’t have enough to pay them now.”
Zion had always been an honest person. Under normal circumstances, he would pay the money to avoid conflict.
These people would cause trouble and make it hard for businesses to operate if they did not pay the protection fee.
James listened to him and nodded. Then, he said, “Alright, I understand. I’ll resolve this.”
He took out his phone and called the Blithe King, briefly explaining the situation.
At that moment, Edgar returned to his feet.
As soon as he got up, he began to curse.
“Brodie, I’ll kill you! What are you guys doing? Beat this traitor to death immediately!”
The others exchanged a few glances.
They had heard James’ phone call and knew James had a solid background.
