Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

Chapter 106 Death Sentence



"Okay," Ruben replied before taking his phone, ready to make a call. But before he could, the phone rang. Looking at the unfamiliar number, he frowned for a moment before he received it.r

"Hello?"r

"Are you Mr Ruben of the Dante family?"r

Ruben wondered why the voice sounded familiar in his ears. But all the same, just to confirm his suspicions, he asked, "Who are you?"r

"Of course you won't know me because you were hiding in the dark, trying to play mysterious while sending my Jerk Brothers Gang into our doom. How good you really are, Mr Ruben." Jerk Brother said sarcastically.r

Ruben hadn't expected that Jerk Brother would know that they were the ones that had offered the mission. But, what surprised him the most was the fact that Jerk Brother said that he had sent them to their doom. How? He couldn't understand.r

"What do you mean by saying that we sent you to your doom? Wasn't it just dealing with a simple junior and give him pressure that his stores would be closed down?" Ruben asked, completely ignoring the first part of Jerk Brother's statement.r

"Just a junior? Are you trying to play ignorant with me at this time even after I have found out that you were the ones that had given out the mission? I will tell you this right now, we are no longer taking that mission. I will refund you your $20M." Jerk Brother got even angry as he thought how the other party was playing dumb.r

It was obvious that he knew what he had done but he was actually trying to get out of this by playing dumb? Although there was nothing big that he could do to the Dante family, he could as well stop cooperating with them in the future.r

He might as well tell the other bosses of the gangs in the city about this. So, he could make sure that all the connections that the Dante family had in the underworld were cut off.r

"What do you mean that you're refunding me? I simply told you to pressure the stores by reducing their sales, that's all. It's not like you're going to a life and death fight, right?" Ruben asked.r

He couldn't allow one of their plans to fail at a critical moment. After all, they had already arrived at a crucial point and it was just that they simply had to take a single action and they would succeed.r

"This is more than a life and death battle. At least in a life and death battle, there's a chance of getting out alive, even if it's small. But this, this is a direct death sentence!" Jerk Brother retorted.r

"Can you be direct with your words? You're talking in riddles in that I definitely can't understand what you mean." Ruben asked as he tried to understand what Jerk Brother was meaning.r

On the other hand, Kevin listened tentatively from the side. He wasn't sure about what was going on. But, from Ruben's expression, he could tell that it wasn't something good. And for some reason, a bad premonition began rising in his heart.r

"What I mean is simple. You actually knew that the owner of the stores was actually a big shot. But, you hid that information from us. What's more, you sent us saying that he was just a nobody with a little money trying to establish himself in the city. It would have been better if you had not said anything. But, you dare give us faulty information?!" The more Jerk Brother spoke, the more angry be became.r

When he had received the information that Jack was just a little junior with money, trying to establish himself in the city, he thought that the information was to be trusted considering that the other party was paying $20M.r

Who knew that they were trying to eliminate the gang using the twenty million dollars? How could he not be angry? Had they not told him any information about Jack, he would have definitely investigated him.r

And if he found that he was someone that he couldn't handle, he would simply refuse to take the mission.r

"What big shot? That little brat has got no background at all. He's trying to establish himself here in the city." Ruben refused to believe that Jack had a bigger background than the Dante family.r

"You still can't admit it? Heh, you asked someone else to send me the money and make the deal with me. But at the end of the day, I still found out that you were the ones that had wanted us to carry out the mission." Jerk Brother sneered.r

Upon being reminded that the other party had actually found out that they were the ones that had asked James to give out the mission to the gang, Ruben couldn't help but think things through.r

According to what he knew, unless Jane's himself revealed that he was the one that had told him to ask the Jerk Brothers Gang to carry out the mission, there was no way that Jerk Brother would know about that.r

Not even the big five families could know about that as James was someone who secretly operated things for the Dante family. He had never revealed information that he was related to the Dante family in any way.r

"Are you too surprised? Hahaha, hahaha, I would like to tell you that, it wasn't me who found out who James was. You know who did it? It was the target of the mission!" Jerk Brother laughed angrily as he said these words.r

Ruben couldn't believe it at all. "Jack? You mean that he was the one that had found out about it? Did you tell him about the mission?"r

"What nonsense are you spouting there? Humph! This guy is so strong. With most of my men out there to block the stores, there were only a few of them present at my villa. One of my subordinates took a hundred men to deal with him."r

Jerk Brother was silent for a moment before he continued, "And you know what the results were? He beat up more than twenty people by himself and then, he bought the others over. In other words, I have lost over a hundred men because of you!"r

"Then, he came to my villa and caused trouble. He took my phone and looked at the account number that had sent the money to my account. And guess what? You were exposed within ten minutes! Ten f*cking minutes! Not days, not months, it was ten minutes!"r

"Even an idiot understand what this means! Someone without any connections can do that? F*ck! I'm sure that even you yourself don't have enough connections with the bank for them to give you the information about the account holder."r

"And another thing that you should know is that, he knew that you were the one that actually sent the guy. So, he knows. And guess what, I've changed my mind. I'm not refunding your twenty million that you sent over. After all, I have just lost three hundred million as compensation plus a hundred men over." Jerk Brother said all these words in one breath before hanging up.r

Ruben remained holding the phone in his hand, not sure what to do at the moment. He was too shocked by the information that he had just received. He wasn't sure what was the best way of reacting to this piece of information.r

Kevin watched from the side in silence as he waited for Ruben to speak. In the end, seeing that the old man was still standing there without saying a word, he couldn't help but ask, "What's going on."r

Kevin's words pulled Ruben out of his stupor. He regained his usual calmness but there was somberness in his expression. He began explaining, "The Jerk Brothers failed the mission that we gave them…."r

When Ruben finished explaining what had happened, Kevin himself was also not sure what to say at the moment.r

He had now become frustrated. He wondered why all of his plans were getting ruined every time that they reached a critical moment. r

"Could we have been mistaken about Jack's background?" Kevin asked doubtfully.r

"I think so. But, I think even our previous assumptions are wrong. He might be from a bigger family, one that is bigger than the Alfonso family. I do believe that even the Alfonso family would need a lot more time to be able to find out that James was related to us. It may take a whole month or they may even fail to know about that." The more Ruben spoke, the more frightened he became.r

Then, Kevin thought of something that made him jump from the couch. "Could he be the Jack that Dalton asked me to help him get information about him?"r

Upon being reminded of this, Ruben also remembered that it hadn't been long since Dalton, who was Jack's father, had called and asked them to help him gather information about his son.r

According to what he had said, his son was about to get married to Alton's granddaughter and they were already engaged. If they did give them the help, the Alfonso family would support them.r

Thinking about Jack being known as Jackson Alfonso. And for him to know about their information in ten minutes, could it be that Alton was involved?r

"I don't think that master Alton can do that in such a short moment of time. Although he's as powerful as the Gravys, his influence in Inchoate city is minimal." Kevin shook his head as he muttered.r

"Then, could it b-" Just before Ruben could say a word more, Kevin's phone rang. r

Kevin took it and looked at the screen. His expression changed and he became angry. The caller was his son, George, who had insisted on living outside for five years.r

Receiving the call, he asked grumpily, "What is it?"r

"Father, what are you guys doing? Do you know who you're actually provoking? I will tell you that, if you have any more plans of messing with Jack, it's better if you give up on them right now." George said.r
