Chapter 240 Dominic Day's Family Gets Arrested!
Second Uncle? The onlookers on the street were all confused.
This old scrap collector was Josh's Second Uncle, and he was really well-known in Houston. Although it seemed illogical, it was the truth!
Not many people in Houston know about Josh's childhood experiences and family situation. In fact, he had a quite tragic background. When he was six years old, his parents had died in a mine collapse while working, and he hadn't received a penny from the compensation.
None of his relatives took care of him, except for his biological Second Uncle, Loren Schneider, who took him in and raised him. The two of them endured countless hardships. Josh had only managed to escape from his predicament when he became an adult and started making some progress in Houston.
Josh his Second Uncle was like a father figure to him. He greatly respected him, and Josh would buy him all kinds of delicious food and drinks.
But Loren couldn't sit still, so he drove a tricycle around the city collecting scrap.
No one could have expected that this seemingly poor, old man was an important person in Houston.
Today, Josh had been eating at a nearby restaurant when he suddenly heard that his Second Uncle had been hit in a car accident.
He immediately brought his men over. Naturally, he was furious!
Furthermore, when Loren saw Josh coming, he panicked, worried that Josh would do something extreme because he was worried about him.
He quickly raised his hand and pressed it down, persuading Josh, "Erhu, don't be impulsive. Let's talk things out properly! Cough cough! Sigh!" When he said that, he touched his thigh wound and couldn't help but let out a groan.
Josh couldn't just sit still when he saw that. He immediately threw a punch that landed on Dominic's mouth, saying, "You've messed up my Second Uncle. I'm going to kill you!"
The punch sent Dominic tumbling head over heels, clutching his mouth and crying out in pain. He reached up to check and found that he had a missing tooth, and blood was gushing out. "My tooth!"
Ruth, who was standing beside them, transformed into an angry woman, shouting, "You bunch of troublemakers! You hit my husband's head. I’ll fight you!" With that, she rushed toward Josh, ready to attack.
Josh's men didn’t just stand by and watch their leader get hit. Without any sympathy, one of them kicked her and said, "Get lost, you crazy woman!" Ruth stumbled back a few steps and fell to the ground, unable to utter a word due to the pain in her stomach.
Even their son, Marlon, was affected by the chaos. A young troublemaker slapped him twice and the bag of chips was dumped on his head.
The onlookers didn’t dare say a word when they witnessed this scene. It Dominic and his family’s fault, and they deserved to be taught a lesson. Josh was also very intimidating, and no one dared to intervene, no matter how brave they were.
Anyone familiar with Josh knew that this matter would not be easily forgotten. As troublemaker asked Josh, "Big Josh, what should we do with this family?"
A chill flashed in Josh's eyes as he instructed his subordinates, "Get a few people to take my Second Uncle to the hospital. The rest of you take this pack of animals away! I still have unfinished business with them!"
"Alright!"
The henchmen split into two groups Without hesitation. One group carefully helped Loren up and sent him to the hospital, while the other forcefully took Dominic and his family away.
The crowd on the street dispersed, leaving only the heavily made-up female salesperson standing there, dazed, beside the wrecked Mercedes R400.
The situation had completely spiraled out of control.
"Can someone tell me what to do?"
Ring, ring!
At that moment, her phone rang.
After a moment of hesitation, she brought the phone to her eyes and saw that it was a call from the store manager.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Could the manager have found out about the car accident?
Suppressing her panic, she pressed the answer button, trembling.
"M-Manager, I..."
The manager's excited voice interrupted Xiao Li before she could finish speaking. "Xiao Li! I have some good news. Ms. Diaz, who just arrived, has sold a Mercedes-Benz AMG S 65L. We’ve met our sales target for this quarter ahead of schedule.
"To celebrate this, I’ll treat everyone to lunch. Let's all go out and have a good time. Hurry back after you finish the test drive with the customer!"
Buzz! The heavily made-up female salesperson felt her mind go blank.
Those two men who had looked like country bumpkins actually bought the Mercedes-Benz AMG S 65L!?
A strong sense of regret immediately surged up in her heart.
She deeply regretted her past decisions...
Houston Dynasty KTV, the basement.
"Please, stop hitting me. It was my fault for not being careful and accidentally bumping into your Second Uncle. Won’t my apology suffice?" Dominic, who was tied up with a rope, pleaded with a mournful expression on his face.
At this point, he had been beaten all over, his nostrils were bleeding, and he was as miserable as one could be.
There was no way around it. Ever since Josh's men had brought them back,
they had been continuously beaten without respite.
His wife, Ruth, had also been tied up.
Her disheveled hair, swollen cheeks, and lowered head showed that she was too frightened to speak, and there was none of her usual unreasonable and fierce appearance.
Josh walked over and squatted down in front of Dominic.
He held a dagger in his right hand and patted his face with the back of the knife. He coldly said, "Apologize? If apologies were useful, what else would we need to do? How about I cut you below and then apologize to you?"
With a look of grievance, Dominic said, "I was wrong. Please don't compare yourself to someone like me, a mere nobody! If it's not possible, you can set some conditions. You can ask me for anything. I’ll do it if I can, just please calm down!"
Josh said sinisterly, "You want me to calm down? Okay then! What can you do?"
Dominic looked around and chuckled, "Well, have you seen my wife? Although she might be a bit older, she’s considered one of the best-looking women in our village. If you don't mind..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Ruth shouted angrily, "What are you saying? What do you think I am?"
Dominic scolded her impatiently and said, "What do you know? You’re a mere woman? I told you to do something, so just do it. If you keep nagging, I'll break your legs!"
After saying that, he smiled at Josh ingratiatingly "You see..."
Slap!
Josh slapped Dominic in the face, interrupting him. "Damn it! What do you take me for? Even old men wouldn’t want this old woman if she was given away for free on the street. And you want to give her to me? Are you trying to disgust me?"
After speaking, he punched Dominic hard in the stomach!
Dominic's head spun and his nose and eyes streamed with tears. He felt extremely wronged.
Josh grabbed Dominic 's hair and pulled him closer, his voice deep and serious. "I just received a letter from the hospital. My Second Uncle's life is not in danger, but he will have to stay in the hospital for some time due to a broken leg. I'm a reasonable person, and I only have two conditions!"
"Please tell me!" Dominic replied.
"Compensate me one million dollars for the medical expenses and take good care of my Second Uncle in the hospital until he is discharged!"
