Chapter 38 - 12 (2/2)
Thomas understood the situation he has got involved in. With the death of Black Mask, he has got involved in the affairs of the Underworld of Gotham. He is sure to have ample of troubles awaiting him.
There are rumors that Roman Sionis is involved with even The Court of Owls. They are the group of reclusive rich people running Gotham from the shadows.
They control the Town Hall and can cause much problems for him in the near future.
” Now I am going to be stared by almost every person who can influence the policy of Gotham. This will be a headache. ” Thomas muttered feeling the troubles coming.
He has closed his eyes thinking if he would have acted differently when he and his family were threatened. After much thoughts, he felt he would have made the same choice.
Then he starts to walk towards the living room of the penthouse.
Watching the back of Thomas, Daisy has some emotional fluctuations. ”It is good that he doesn't doubt his actions or we would have suffered greatly. I thought I would have to contact Mrs. Allens but it is not the case anymore.”
Then she thought of the people who may threaten them here, ”I hope you don't anger him while he is like this. If they do then the only place which can protect them is the prison. ”
After saying that she too walks and follows in the direction Thomas walked away.
With Thomas,
Thomas walked into the living room with Daisy behind him. Before Thomas's arrival, Percy has been entertaining the manager.
But when Thomas walked inside, both of them stood up involuntarily. At this moment, Thomas is giving off a feeling that anyone who disobeys him or crosses him will pay a heavy price.
Thomas sat down though he never motioned for the manager to take the seat.
In this situation, Thomas has to show his superiority or at least show he is in a better position. The dealing with the manager now will be a very important factor in the future dealing with others in Gotham.
The manager thought he would lead the talks and may have some gains for himself. But it doesn't seem to be the case anymore. So he went to the topic directly and spoke out, ” Sir, I wish to talk about the incident of the VIP room in which you ate your breakfast.”
Thomas arches his brows and spoke, ”You wish to speak about the bugs I crushed back there. Is that my fault? I thought your hotel doesn't have bug and does bug infestations to stop them from making a home here.
It seems like you have been lazy in dealing with the affairs of the Hotel. I will talk to your boss later and complain about the bugs.
You shouldn't worry about me. I will make sure that everyone knows you have bugs in your hotel. You should worry about the recursion of this incident. Now leave. ” he dismissed the manager and left the living room before the manager can even respond.
After he recovered, he saw that Thomas has already left.
Although he can not reach his objective, he understood what Thomas meant by those words.
He leaves the penthouse and doesn't do anything to hide the incident. He even propagated the incident.
Thomas wishes to let this matter spread and let everyone knows, he will crush anyone who threatens his family.
