Chapter 705 First Move to Destroy the Alliance
Day Seventy-Five…
~~*****~~
[ At Hiroshi's Villa… ]
Mr. Hiroshi was spending time with his daughter, Abigail as they prepared for the upcoming wedding. Mr. Hiroshi meticulously arranged a sample floral decoration with practiced precision while his daughter, Abigail, and her fiancé, Dave, sat nearby, sorting through wedding invitations.
"Pa, have we forgotten something? Can you check this list?" Abigail showed Mr. Hiroshi the guest list for the upcoming wedding.
Mr. Hiroshi scanned the list for a few seconds before shaking his head. "I think every important person whom you want to invite are already on the list." After saying that, Mr. Hiroshi turned to his future son-in-law. "How about you, Dave? Have you included your superiors here? You should invite them as well. Or maybe we can also invite the generals."
Dave let out a soft chuckle when he heard Mr. Hiroshi's suggestion. His position in the police department was not yet high. He couldn't possibly invite those high-ranking officials.
"I'm sorry, Dad. But I am still a nobody for those high-ranking officials. I don't think they will waste their time to attend my wedding." Dave scratched his face in embarrassment.
"Hmm. Is that so? No worries, my son. This father-in-law will help you get your promotion," Mr. Hiroshi declared with a mischievous smirk playing across his face.
'I can help my son-in-law in his promotion by capturing small gangs and syndicates in this country. With the power of my Sawada Clan, he can easily pull this off.' Mr. Hiroshi thought of a way he could assist Dave with his promotion.
On the other hand, Dave didn't take his words seriously. He thought Mr. Hiroshi was just making him feel better. Dave was clueless that Mr. Hiroshi was indeed capable of helping him in his career promotion.
The three of them continued what they were doing when Kazuki showed up, calling Mr. Hiroshi's attention.
"Master! May I talk to you for a while?" Kazuki was being secretive. He glanced at Mr. Hiroshi meaningfully. Dave and Abigail shouldn't hear their conversation. This matter had something to do with the Sawada Clan.
"Alright. My daughter and my son… I have to excuse myself. I leave this to you." Mr. Hiroshi handed over the sample floral decoration he made.
"Thanks, Pa!" Abigail cheerfully accepted it.
Dave just nodded his head with a smile.
Soon, Mr. Hiroshi stood up and followed Kazuki to the balcony.
"Tell me what's happening. Why are you looking so serious?" Mr. Hiroshi raised his eyebrow as he confronted Kazuki. He could feel that his right-hand man had something important to say.
"The Dragon Lord contacted me once again. He wants to meet you, Master."
Mr. Hiroshi squinted his eyes, feeling a little bit annoyed. "That man is so persistent. I already declared our alliance with the Syphiruz Mafia. Why does he keep on pestering me? I won't meet him. And That's final!"
"But… Master… The Dragon Lord had already expected that you would refuse to meet him so… he mentioned that he was going to reveal a piece of information concerning your daughter, Jane. He sounded very serious about it. Master, I'm afraid… we must meet him in person." Kazuki felt like there would be a big revelation coming from the Dragon Lord.
"How did he know about my daughter, Jane?" A flicker of concern flashed through Mr. Hiroshi's eyes. "How dare he use my daughter just to lure me?" Mr. Hiroshi became more annoyed. He couldn't say no when it came to his daughter. If this matter had something to do with his daughter then he should meet the Dragon Lord.
"I'm not certain. However, It seems that he knew her," Kazuki responded.
"Sigh. Where is he?" Mr. Hiroshi heaved a sigh of defeat.
"Master… he sent me this address. We must be careful. This might also be a trap. Should I bring Hanabi with us?" Kazuki pursed his lips when he thought of his son, Tatsumi. That guy went abroad once again without even informing him.
'When I need him, he is not around. What a useless son I have!' Kazuki cursed his son inwardly. He wanted to punish his son once Tatsumi returned.
"No. We can't bring Hanabi. Her task is to protect Abigail and Jane. She should stay here. Just bring some elite bodyguards. Until now, we haven't located our missing comrades."
"Okay, Master. I understand." Kazuki immediately summoned their elite fighters among the clan members.
"Shall we go now, Master? The Dragon Lord is waiting for us in that place."
Mr. Hiroshi just bobbed his head. He pondered as to how the Dragon Lord learned about Jane's existence. He hadn't revealed to the outsiders about Jane's existence. Only members of the Sawada Clan and the people close to them knew about his relationship with Jane.
The two of them just waited for the elite bodyguards to arrive before they left the mansion. Mr. Hiroshi was very silent during the entire journey.
'What is he up to this time?' Mr. Hiroshi mused to himself. But compared to other mafia leaders, the Dragon Lord was not that scheming. If he had to compare him with Nathan, the Dragon Lord was still an immature leader.
'Sigh. I'm glad I chose Nathan over Alexander. I can see Nathan's potential. He can protect my daughter.' His lips curled up in a faint smile, thinking about Nathan's reputation.
Forty-five minutes later, Mr. Hiroshi and Kazuki reached their destination. It was a five-star hotel.
"Hmm… so he chose a public place as if he is telling us he won't do stupid things here." Mr. Hiroshi commented as his eyes scanned the tall building in front of him.
"Yes, Master. He reassured me that he just wanted to talk to you in person." Kazuki's tension was slowly dissipating. He just hoped the Dragon Lord would be true to his words. However, they wouldn't lower their guard. Kazuki and his comrades were on high alert. Protecting their godfather was their utmost priority.
"Let's go and meet this Dragon Lord." Mr. Hiroshi mumbled, leading the way.
Alexander reserved the rooftop of the hotel. No one aside from them could enter the roof deck. He prepared a shocking surprise for Mr. Hiroshi. His aim was to destroy the alliance between the Syphiruz Mafia and the Sawada Clan.
