Chapter 195: Some Things Can't Be Said
Xavier was stunned, then said, "If he came ready to die, should we be afraid?"
Wyatt asked, "If you went alone to face Charles's men, could you leave unscathed?
No, but he could!"
Xavier complained, "You didn't let me call the brothers."
Wyatt asked, "Didn't you hear him say he noticed we had no ambush? From downstairs to upstairs, we were with him. Did anyone see him looking around?
It means he's a natural killer, sensing if we had an ambush."
Xavier shook his head, "Wyatt, don't be mad. Others fear what hurt them once for ten years.
You've been invincible, never bitten by a snake. Why fear this kid?"
Wyatt sighed, "Xiao Dao, you're still young. Though older than Henry, you're not as shrewd.
You asked why I fear him. If I had someone better than him, would I fear him?
Don't tell me about bare-handed fights. He might not beat you or Xiao Fei.
But he unarmedly hospitalized Henry and Zack, who had guns.
With three low-level brothers, he challenged Charles and subdued nearly 100 men in the southern suburbs. Can you do that?
And Ryan, not just a cop, but his father was once top in Harbor Springs.
But now?
He beat him, and nothing happened.
Could you do that?
And Erick, a clown, but you know his uncle and aunt's positions.
The bar was taken by Henry, and it stayed that way.
Erick didn't just seek Samuel and Tristan; he must have sought his uncle and aunt.
It means the authorities can't touch him.
If you took the bar, wouldn't the authorities react?"
Xavier was silent.
Wyatt continued, "You know Samuel. Among us old guys, he was the best fighter. But now?
You think he was scared just because 30 men failed to handle Henry at the hospital?
Even if Henry was tough, Samuel could contact Tristan and me."
This puzzled Xavier, Peter, and the Harbor Springs underworld, so they stared at Wyatt.
Wyatt said, "I know the reason but can't tell you. It's too dangerous, could backfire.
What I can say is, Tristan is now his main opponent.
Given the current situation, Tristan isn't his match.
Recently, Gavin's men were hospitalized again, right?
It must be Henry's doing.
I apologized today for other reasons, which I can't disclose.
But I can tell you I don't want him to see me as an enemy, so he focuses on Tristan.
If he loses, we don't need to act.
If he wins, a stronger opponent awaits him. We can watch the show.
Remember when Charles was rampant, and you wanted to fight him? I stopped you, saying someone would deal with him.
Look at him now, back in the county, while we remain."
Xavier frowned, "Wyatt, who's the stronger opponent?"
Wyatt meant Cole but couldn't tell Xavier, warning again, "Xiao Dao, remember, don't let our men provoke him.
If he conquers Harbor Springs, it's his luck.
Normally, he won't last long; someone will deal with him. We don't need to risk our men for others.
Understand?"
Xavier nodded, still unwilling, asking, "What about Owen?"
"Tell the truth," Wyatt said, "Tell him I apologized, and Henry spared him. Warn him not to provoke Henry again."
Xavier nodded, "Got it!"
"Go," Wyatt said, "Check their hospital bills. Call Xiao Fei to send the money."
"Yes!"
"Also, tell Owen not to target students anymore. It's not about Henry; the crackdown is nationwide. Once inside, money won't get him out."
Xavier nodded, "Understood!"
As Wyatt expected, Henry came ready to die but was surprised by Wyatt's reaction, raising his guard.
He didn't believe Wyatt treated others this way.
On the way back, he looked around but saw no Tristan's men.
In the afternoon, he picked up Miles from school.
All for Avery.
After enjoying Ruby, he was eager to taste Avery.
Seeing him, Miles jumped for joy.
A new security guard met Henry.
At Avery's, they played games until she returned.
Miles went to do homework, and Henry clung to Avery in the kitchen, kissing and touching.
Avery seemed helpless but liked his advances.
After Ruby, Henry wasn't as anxious.
After dinner, he held Avery for a long time, making her reluctant to let him go, wanting him to stay.
Without last night's experience, Henry wouldn't leave.
Even without action, holding Avery all night would be nice.
But he felt staying without doing anything, risking being caught, wasn't worth it.
So he left, claiming work at the bar, and Avery didn't insist.
Home by 9 PM, he showered and was about to call Ruby when the video doorbell rang.
Henry was surprised to see Ruby again.
Yesterday she wore a white dress; today, she wore pink.
