Chapter 1042 - Loyalty (2) (1/2)

Jeff took the gun from one of his bodyguards and pointed it at Chelsea's forehead. ”I should punish you for this insolence.” He moved his aim toward Mrs. Davis. ”Or should I punish your mother for not educating you properly?” The gun moved toward Mr. Davis. ”Or should it be your father to pay the price because he brought you here?”

Jeff looked at Chelsea coldly while pressing the barrel of the gun on her forehead. ”I can do much more than just pulling the trigger, Miss Davis. I can erase you, and no one will dare to ask if Davis family ever existed. Do you understand?”

Jeff narrowed his eyes at non-responsive Chelsea. ”Do. You. Understand?”

She nodded weakly.

”Good.” Jeff lowered the gun and gave it back to the bodyguard. He gestured with his hand and the other bodyguards kept their guns back in the holsters.

Chelsea's knees gave up and she plopped on the floor while her eyes stared without focus in front of her.

Jeff looked at Mr. Davis. ”Was that all or is there something else you wanted to talk about?”

”Oscar never treated us like this.”, Mr. Davis protested bitterly.

”You are welcome to bring that up with my father. If there is nothing else, I suggest that you leave before I change my mind.”

Mr. Davis clenched his teeth and glared at Jeff.

Mrs. Davis was the first one to recover. She tugged her husband's arm and helped Chelsea on her feet.

Dylan walked out first with the rest of his family following closely without a word.

Jeff gestured with his hand, and the bodyguards left as well.

When everyone was out of the earshot, Jeff looked at JoAnna and flashed a smile. ”How was that?”

”You are amazing!”, JoAnna exclaimed happily and pounced on his lap while her arms wrapped around him. She gave him a smacking kiss on the lips. Her husband is so powerful! Ah, if they don't have guests, they would go upstairs and get busy! Hugs will need to suffice for now.

JoAnna thought about the Davis family who just left and frowned. ”Do you think that they will shift their loyalty to Marcus?”

Jeff nodded. ”They need a backer, and he is the only one they can turn to. But this was necessary... We should freeze their assets. Without money, their connections will be useless, and without money and connections, Marcus will have no value keeping them.”

JoAnna agreed. ”On it.”

She got her phone and called Sarah, telling her to freeze all assets for Davis family members.

”I hope you are hungry, because dinner is served.”, JoAnna told Emma and Charlie.

Over dinner, they discussed 'apology tokens' that four families gave to Emma.
