Chapter 320
Melanie, disheveled and terrified, was huddling in a corner. She was clutching a piece of broken glass so tightly it cut her hands, though she didn’t seem to feel the pain.
Mike cracked his neck and said coldly. “I’ll deal with you once I’ve handled the situation outside.”
He opened the door and stepped into the hallway.
Mike frowned when he saw the two groups locked in a fierce fight. The numbers were about even, but the opposing side had a muscular powerhouse.
Sensing things were going south, Mike retreated to the room and called Luke,
But Luke didn’t answer.
Mike began to panic. He called repeatedly.
However, regardless of his desperation, Luke wouldn’t pick up.
At Sanctuary Resort, Heath was already seated in the seat that should have belonged to Luke. Luke was now kneeling on the floor, covered in blood.
Heath hadn’t expected lan’s men to be such cowards. The fight had barely started before someone was
begging for mercy.
Heath’s recent ruthless actions had clearly instilled some fear.
Luke’s phone kept ringing in his pocket.
Heath, looking down on him, said, “Answer it.
Luke pulled out his phone and saw it was Mike calling. He answered.
“Luke, help! They’re beating me up!”
Hearing Mike’s desperate plea, Luke looked up at Heath and pleaded, “Leave someone from the Carlson family alive…”
With a mocking smile, Heath replied, “It’s not like we’re in the dark ages. I’m not looking to kill anyone.”
Luke’s words made it sound like Heath intended to kill both him and Mike.
Luke gritted his teeth and asked, “Then what do you want?”
Heath lit a cigarette and exhaled a plume of smoke.
“Simple. Hand over all your assets.
Luke was on the verge of collapsing,
“Fine. I’ll give up everything.”

Heath smiled brightly and snapped his fingers. Benjamin walked in, carrying a stack of contracts.
Just as everything seemed to be going smoothly, a terrified lackey rushed in.
“Heath, we’ve got trouble. Albert’s coming with a lot of men!”
Heath took a deep breath and looked at Wade.
Wade’s eyes gleamed with intensity as he grinned fiercely.
“Let’s take them on. I don’t care who he is.”
At A1 Seafood Restaurant, Arthur dragged a battered Mike into Carlisle’s private room. Arthur had several bleeding wounds.
Carlisle turned to the manager.
“Do you have a doctor?”
“Yes. I’ll get one right away.”
The manager nodded, trembling.
The restaurant had two seasoned doctors on staff to handle any potential seafood allergies.
Arthur, eager to impress, said to Carlisle, “Boss, I took down eight guys…”
Carlisle gave him a thumbs–up.
“Impressive. I’ll make sure to reward you in the future.”
Arthur’s eyes welled up with tears. He knew the weight of Carlisle’s words. After all, Carlisle was a top–tier boss. Even Heath respected him.
Mike, bruised and swollen, crawled to Carlisle’s feet. Tears were streaming down his face.
“Carl… Carl, I know I messed up. Please, forgive me!”
