9 A New Weapon (2/2)

”Yes, dad” Reed answered back to Reece and started following Reece who was was walking towards the exit of the room.

Watching the two leaving the room Daniel asked his dad

”Dad, who are they? No one else would dare to talk to you like that unless they were like us. Members of the four great family.”

Joshua replied back to his son clenching his teeth in anger ”The man's name was Reece and the child of beaten you up was called Reed. Reece being the head of the Aniston family while Reed was his only son, so he is the sole heir to the Aniston Family.”

”The Aniston Family!”Daniel widened his eyes in shock. As a member of the four great families, Daniel was required to learn everything about the other three families. through the lessons he learned that the Aniston Family was very powerful family that could even wipe out his own family if they ever wanted.

No wonder Reed was so overbearing and dared to beat him up so much. Daniel was even happier that he played along with Reed. He couldn't imagine what would happen to him if he were to see Reed in public again if he didn't do what did.

Even though Daniel was cheering himself up, his dad was mad to the bone. He couldn't but feel mad about what happened. He surely knew that the beating of his son will spread across the whole entire city. It was truly humiliating since it affected the houses reputation.

”That kid Reed, he will truly be a dangerous individual in the future.” Joshua thought to himself. He came to conclusion seeing how overbearing and calm he was after the while he had the confrontation in front of. He felt the Reed was looking at him as if he was a cow being prepped for for slaughtering. Joshua had these feeling only twice in his life. And each time the feeling appeared saved his life.

”Was attempting to kill him really the right choice? I feel like I signed my death warrant instead,” Joshua questioned himself as he looked down at the floor.

Back home at the Aniston House, Reece was questioning Reed to learn what really happened back at the banquet. Reed explained how Daniel was being overbearing by threatening him that he would destroy Reed's family and that the only way he could apologize to Daniel was if he licked his shoes.

Hearing Reed's explanation, Reece found it acceptable as he knew that if he was in Reed's show, he would've done the same.

Dad, I'm pretty sure the news of me beating up Daniel will have spread all over by tomorrow morning. I'm pretty sure the other three great families will be even more cautious after hearing about me being so domineering,” Reed said to Reece.

”Yeah, I'm pretty sure that your right. You should start laying low and don't do anything outrageous anymore as, the more things that grab the attention of the three great families, the more likely they'll see you as a bigger threat and attack us even earlier.” Reece replied back with worry in his voice.

”Yes dad, I understand.” Reed said back with a smile.

” Dad I have a question.”

”What is it,” Reece was curious what Reed wanted to ask as his son rarely asked question.

”Can I have a look at the blueprints for the weapons we are making?” Hearing Reed asking for the blueprints for the weapons they were making, Reece couldn't help but feel astonished. The last thing he expected was Reed asking for weapon blueprints.

”Why do you want to look at our weapon blueprints?” Reece didn't want to immediately say no to Reed as he knew Reed wouldn't ask such a question without a reason. So answered back with a question of own to figure out why.

Seeing that Reece didn't say no immediately and asked why, Reed smiled and said

”I want to compare your weapon blueprint to my weapon blueprint. So that I can see which is better.”
