When Faron heard the sound of the door being slammed, he too sneered and said, "These people get their news fast. They came looking for Ethan right after he came back. It seems that they know everything that happens in Harvest County."
Nicholas said, "Should I call someone over? I told my superior that you've arranged the task, and they have prepared a squadron of special agents for me. They're ready to move out at any time."
"Let's listen to what Wilbur has to say." Faron looked at Wilbur.
Wilbur said indifferently, "Don't worry. We will get them all in one fell swoop after all of them have shown up. We must ensure that none of them will get away."
Faron and Nicholas nodded at the same time, but Wendy was a little confused. What were these people talking about? Were they powerful enough to go against the other party?
They looked so young. How powerful were these people and how did Ethan get to know them?
Those questions plagued her mind and made her even more confused about the situation.
Ethan looked at Wendy and said, "Don't worry, Wendy. There's nothing they can't do."
"Ethan, don't forget about Warren Plummer," Wendy whispered.
Wilbur looked at Wendy and said, "Is he the one who cheated Ethan of his money?"
Wendy did not say a word but stood silently beside Ethan instead. It was apparent that she was still keeping her guard up.
Seeing that, Wilbur said to Faron, "I almost forgot about this matter. Faron, try to find a way to arrest him. You have to get both him and the money."
"Don't worry. I'll see to it right away," Faron agreed.
Wilbur nodded and then signaled Nicholas to open the door.
Just as Nicholas took two steps forward, the room's door was smashed open. Several men rushed in, blocking Wilbur and the others in the room.
Wilbur's expression turned dark and asked, "How did you get in here, and who let you in?"
Kurtis's expression darkened immediately. "Young man, I don't care who you are or what you are to Ethan. This is between him and us. You better mind your own business."
Kurtis's threat was clear to Wilbur. He knew what was going on instantly.
Kurtis and that bully were in cahoots.
Wilbur said casually, "I'm here to deal with Ethan's affairs, so you don't have to threaten me. Ask your backers to come at me. All of you are nothing in my eyes."
"Kiddo, do you know what this place is? Believe it or not, I will make sure that you won't leave Harvest County alive," Kurtis huffed angrily.
Faron mocked, "Hah! You sure are gutsy! Does Harvest County belong to your family? Why do you have the final say?"
Kurtis looked at Wilbur and Faron angrily, gritted his teeth, and said, "I'm done being nice. If you don't listen to me, don’t regret it when something bad happens to you!"
