Chapter 451 Who Else?
Man, that coffin was totally out of place at the birthday bash!
Even though the sky was starting to clear up, that pitch-black coffin was giving everyone the creeps, sending shivers down their spines!
Everyone there was a big shot in Houston, folks who'd seen a lot in their time!
But this was a first—someone gifting a coffin at a birthday party, clearly looking for trouble!
The coffin was smack dab in the middle of the courtyard, right in front of Heather, who had just stood up in the hall!
Heather took one look at the patterns on the coffin and felt a wave of anger wash over her!
She was breathing heavily, then suddenly slammed her hand on the table and yelled, "Ryder, you jerk!"
Ryder just sneered. "Jerk? Watch your mouth. Is my gift not grand or practical enough for you?"
Heather's face twisted with rage, and her arm was shaking.
She never thought a perfectly good birthday party would turn out like this!
And it was all Ryder's fault!
Sandra saw the look on Heather's face and got mad too!
She stepped forward, pointed at Ryder, and shouted, "Ryder! Don't push us too far. Today is my mom's birthday, and I won't let anyone ruin it. You better take your people and get out of here!"
Tyler jumped in, "Ryder! I don't care how you got out of prison! But let me remind you, even in Houston, I can still get people to beat you down! Make you a total loser!"
Ryder didn't even flinch!
He slowly looked up at Tyler like he was some kind of joke!
Tyler was thrown off by Ryder's look. "What’s with that look?"
Ryder didn’t answer, just made a gesture!
George, who was behind Ryder, stepped up and rushed into the hall, landing a punch right in Tyler's gut.
Tyler screamed and crumpled, unable to fight back!
George grabbed Tyler by the collar and threw him hard!
Tyler landed right in front of Ryder, hitting the ground with a thud.
Tyler spat out dirt, looked up, and glared at Ryder. "How dare you hit me? You got a death wish?"
Before he could finish, Ryder stomped on Tyler's head!
Tyler's mouth, just out of the dirt, was shoved back in by Ryder's boot!
He ate a few more mouthfuls of mud!
Ryder looked down at him, his voice icy. "If you're not happy, go ahead and call for help!"
Tyler was fuming!
He'd had run-ins with Ryder before, but never this humiliating!
He was literally stomped into the dirt!
"Just you wait!" Tyler gritted his teeth, struggled to pull his phone from his pocket, and called Viper!
Viper picked up quickly.
Tyler yelled, "Viper, where are you? Get your guys back to the Johnson Mansion right now, something's up!"
On the other end, Viper's voice was urgent. "How did you know something happened?"
Tyler was scratching his head, totally confused.
Viper kept talking, "I was just making a deal with my guys at the sand factory when the cops busted in, accusing us of drug trafficking. Watch your back."
Then there were sounds of fighting and shouting on the other end, and the call cut off with a bunch of busy tones!
"What the heck?" Tyler stared at his phone, completely stunned!
He'd been strutting around Houston like he owned the place because Viper and his crew had his back!
But now they were busted for drug trafficking? This was nuts!
"So, when are your guys showing up?" Ryder's voice came from above.
Tyler, not wanting to back down, grimaced and warned, "Ryder, don't get too full of yourself. Messing with me will have serious consequences!"
Ryder's eyes were cold as ice. "What you need to know is that messing with the people I care about will have even worse consequences."
With that, Ryder suddenly kicked Tyler right in the face!
The kick was brutal, making Tyler scream in pain, knocking out a tooth, and blood gushed from his nose and mouth!
"My tooth!" Tyler lay on the ground, clutching his mouth, searching for his tooth!
Blood was dripping through his fingers!
He couldn't have looked more pathetic!
Ryder ignored him, turning his gaze to the rest of the Johnson family!
"Now, it's your turn!" Ryder's stare made everyone tense up!
All the guests in the courtyard were just standing there, watching in shock!
It was beyond embarrassing!
Lawrence couldn't hold back and yelled, "Ryder, don't push us too far. The Johnson family has treated you well over the years. Do you really want to humiliate everyone today?"
"The one who should be embarrassed is you!" Ryder snapped back!
Two of his men rushed up, yanking Lawrence down!
They kicked him hard in the calf!
Lawrence's legs buckled, and he knelt in front of Ryder!
Ryder casually slapped him across the face!
"With your kind, I suggest you keep your mouth shut."
Lawrence wanted to fight back, but seeing Ryder and the army of men in black behind him, he decided to keep quiet, lowering his head, not daring to say another word!
"Who else?" Ryder pointed at the rest of the Johnson family and challenged!
Sandra gritted her teeth and snapped, "Me! What are you gonna do to me?"
As soon as she spoke, two more men in black rushed up!
Without any mercy, they grabbed Sandra by the hair and dragged her down!
This time, without waiting for Ryder's order, they started slapping Sandra's face!
After more than ten slaps, Sandra's cheeks were swollen, and her nose was bleeding!
Ryder bent down slightly, his cold gaze fixed on Sandra, and asked, "Had enough? If not, we can keep going! Maybe carve a few more lines on your cheek."
