When Thomas Dunn said that, everyone was stunned.
A lot of people cast Thomas unfriendly gazes and most of them, except the ones who knew who Nathan Cross was, thought that he really was looking for trouble.
Judging by Thomas's lack of influence in Channing, anyone could murder him with just a snap of their fingers.
Sure enough, Joey Lund's expression turned icy.
Black Dragon, who stood behind him, asked in a low voice, "Master, do you want me to kill him right now?"
When Black Dragon said that, the atmosphere in the restaurant turned frigid and everyone was as taut as a bowstring.
The murderous intent emanating from Black Dragon was horrifying.
Even Thomas seemed shocked.Black Dragon must've killed a lot of his enemies to be able to emanate such a terrifying murderous aura.
Blood of thousands must've stained his hands.
Joey could pick up on the nuances in Thomas Dunn's expression; he clearly saw the fear in Thomas's eyes.
He flashed a smug smile. "Haha, don't be scared. I'm a gentleman, so I won't kill you in public. But I can't guarantee that after you walk out this door."
Joey Lund then asked in amusement, "I'll give you another chance to choose. Are you willing to serve me? If you are, kneel down and kiss my leather shoes.”
According to the Lund Family's traditions, if someone from the public wanted to pledge their allegiance to the Lund Family, they would have to kiss their family's head's hand.
On the other hand, if someone from the Underground wanted to do the same thing, they would have to kiss their leather boots instead.
That meant that if someone from aboveboard joined the Lund Family, they would be one of Lund Family's followers.
However, if someone from the Underground did the same, they would be one of the Lund Family's servants.
Joey didn't ask the people who wanted to join the Lund Family to kiss his hand, but instead, he asked Dunn to kiss his leather shoes.
