Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 345 The Strange Group

Cory wanted Gerald and his friends to die immediately but did not dare to offend Jessie. Cory looked

around and then whispered, “The place where they live is a slum area at the edge of the city. Dark

Reapers takes charge of that area. Two days ago, Dark Reapers collected protection. money there,

and one member took a fancy to a woman who was Gerald’s friend!”

Cory continued, “Furious, Gerald and his friends fought against those people of Dark Reapers and

challenged them! There will be another fight between the two groups today. Dark Reapers has hired

four or five top fighters as their helpers. Harry, the head of Dark Reapers, is strong too. Therefore,

Gerald and his friends may die in the fight.”

“What!” Jessie’s expression changed slightly.

“No way!” Eileen suddenly said. “Didn’t Gerald and his friends know the rule? Protection money…”

“What do they know? They are just some newcomers to Sin City, reckless and ignorant. They don’t

know the rules here. They must think that this city is the same as the one they came from,” Cory said.

Eileen still had a lot of questions to ask, but Jessie pulled her by the hand and said, “Go. Let’s go!”

Jessie pulled Eileen out of the bar and then into the car. Eileen asked with a frown, “Where are we

going? To see them?”

Jessie said calmly, “Theo did me a great favor. Gerald looks exactly like him. Dark Reapers has hired

five top fighters to win, and I think there will be about 100 gangsters. In that case, Theo will have little

chance to win even if he is at the top level. I will go ask my dad for help. Anyway, I don’t want them to

die!”

Eileen was shocked and then nodded. “Indeed, it is rare to see someone so much like Theo. Let’s go!”

Gerald and his friends were still at home. On the first floor, the Aubin family was very nervous and

looked restless.

up

“Roger!” Nikki said through her gritted teeth. “Why don’t you take a kitchen knife to make the number

later?”

Roger said after his mouth twitched, “Do you want me to die?”

Nikki was stunned at first and then remained silent.

Roger had never practiced martial arts. He was just a man in the street and a bit thin. He had the

strength to take up farming and would become defenseless in a fight like this.

“Have you packed up our stuff?” Roger asked.

“Yes,” Nikki said.

“Anyway, we will run if something bad happens.” Roger sighed. “We have done what we can.”

On the second floor, Gerald heard the conversation between Roger and Nikki. With a faint smile on his

face, Gerald looked at the people opposite him and said, “Kristen, Theo, I will leave the front line to

you.”

Both Theo and Kristen held a saber in their hands. Theo smiled and said, “Just a bunch of trash. I will

kill one with one slash.”

Gerald frowned and said, “Don’t let down your guard. The people in this city have enough combat

experience. They may cooperate or have some helpers. There may be a few top fighters here.”

With a trace of apprehension on her face, Jolie looked at Gerald and asked, “Gerald, why don’t you

stay here? We…”

Gerald smiled and said, “I will have to show up because we have a small number of people.”

Valery said with a smile, “Jolie, don’t worry. We are strong. I will keep an eye on Gerald and protect

him. Be good, and stay at home with Roger and his family. Don’t go watch the fight, okay? Our enemy

may use firearms, so accidents may happen.”

“Okay!” Jolie nodded.

“Claude must be ready now!” Gerald said.

“Claude can’t give full play to his abilities in this place,” Theo said. “The buildings here are not high

enough. He must have gone to find the tallest building around. Don’t worry about him because he

always finds the best position for sniping.”

Gerald nodded and said, “It seems that Scar won’t come. It’s almost seven o’clock.”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Right then, there came a knock on the door downstairs. Then, Roger said, “Gerald, Scar and his friend

are here!”

Gerald nodded, let out a sigh, and said, “They must be ready now. Let’s go!”

Gerald walked downstairs with the others. Then, a vagrant outside the door attracted their attention, so

their pupils instantly constricted.

To be precise, the sabers on the back of the vagrant attracted the attention of the group of four.

One saber was long, and the other was short, the standard weapons for a Watchman.

“That guy… Did he get the sabers from some Watchmen? Or, is he a Watchman himself?” Gerald had

a lot of questions in his mind.

“Ha, I got weapons and helpers ready.” Scar smiled at Gerald. “I brought my friend here. We still have a

chance to win.”

Gerald nodded. He did not take his Void-breaking and Nameless with him. Gerald did not have Vital

Energy now, so it would be useless for him to carry his sabers on his back.

Valery wore a black mask. She looked valiant and heroic with short hair.

“Will these two girls go with us?” Scar asked.

Valery frowned.

Gerald nodded. “Yes!”

Scar looked at Gerald again and asked, “Where is your weapon?”

“I don’t need it.” Gerald smiled and then said to Roger, “Roger, Jenna, Nikki, stay at home and don’t

look outside. Moreover, please take good care of Jolie for me!”

Roger nodded.

Gerald smiled to calm the Aubin family down. Then, he turned around and said, “Let’s go!”

The little group walked to the door. The vagrant stood there with one bottle of wine in his hand. He did

not look at Gerald. After Gerald walked out of the building, the vagrant followed behind the little group.

The group of six slowly walked on the street.

Instantly, countless people looked at the group.

Many residents here longed for a new ruler.

They were dumbfounded at the sight of this little group.

They knew Scar, who converted people to join his gang every day.

There were two newcomers, and one of them did not even have a weapon.

There were two women too!

Most people found it weird for women to participate in this kind of gang fight.

In addition, there was also a vagrant who was drinking.

As for Dark Reapers, there were at least 200 people and 5 top fighters.

“Hey! Aren’t they courting death?”

Many people came to watch the fight. In some tall buildings, they frowned at the sight of the small

number of people on Gerald’s side.

Scar remembered something and asked with a frown, “Damn, where is that man? Did he flee with

fear?”

Gerald smiled and said, “Don’t worry. He is where he should be!”

Right then, there came the sound of footsteps.

Gerald and his friends stopped and looked into the distance. Not far away, a large group of people

emerged from the other end of the street and rushed toward Gerald.

The huge difference in numbers made Scar swallow his saliva. Scar tightened his grip on the

broadsword in his hand and gritted his teeth. “Damn it…”

“Just stay behind me!” The vagrant calmly opened his mouth. Then, he glanced at Gerald with his

turbid eyes, picked up his bottle of wine, and took a sip.

In the distance, Jessie and Eileen stood on the balcony of a tall building. A middle-aged man sat on the

balcony, looked at the street with interest, and said, “Six people… Interesting.”
