Even if Boss Jarett were to come face to face with the mighty Tanners, he'd be nothing more than an insignificant, powerless bug.
But here's the deal, being a local official doesn't hold a candle to having real power.
The Tanners are far away in Seavale, will they even bother to intervene in such trivial matters?
Baron sat there deep in thought, his mind racing so much that he felt like he was wearing out the chair beneath him.
Just then, Wendell, seated next to him, whispered, "Boss, do you remember that time we visited that urban village in the north of the city with Boss Nicholson?"
Baron was taken aback. "Why are you bringing that up now?"
"I overheard from one of Devin's subordinates that there was a massive gunfight there right after we left. They even used various tear gas grenades! It was a crazy scene!"
Since Kingsley had taken the blame for injuring Jaiden on his behalf just now, Wendell was extremely grateful.
Therefore, he spoke these words in the hope that Baron would not stand against Kingsley.
At Wendell's words, Baron's eye twitched for a moment.
After a solid half-minute, he gritted his teeth fiercely and muttered, "D*mn it! I'll take the bet!"
At this moment, Augustus was pointing at the pale-faced Victoria and shouted, "Victoria Jeanne, your guilt has been established! All of us—"
Before he could finish his words, Baron abruptly interrupted, "Hold on, Master Osborn. I don't think... it's wise to make such a hasty conclusion!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room turned their gaze toward him.
No one expected that Baron would step forward at this moment and challenge Augustus.
A trace of sinister coldness flashed in Augustus' eyes.
"Mr. Howe, I advise you to be careful with your words. Everyone has already confirmed that Victoria is guilty. Are you trying to defend her?!"
The rest of the bosses showed different expressions on their faces.
Someone sternly rebuked, "Baron, Master Osborn has already made a decision. It's not your place to meddle!"
Another sarcastic remark followed. "Tsk tsk, it seems that Mr. Howe has quite the ambition! Is he teaming up with Victoria to challenge Boss Jarett?"
