977 This Is Who I Am
Gary was looking at just how many people had been brought. There had to be around fifty or so gang members just for the three of them.
He couldn''t believe that a man would act in such a way just because he wanted them not to hit a kid. At times he thought the world was getting better, and then situations like this one would appear.
Sir Ken was continuing to gloat as he looked at the three of them who appeared to be on the back foot.
That was when Gary stepped forward, tensing his fist, but Kai reached out his hand, stopping him from walking ahead.
“Hey!” Gary called out, still being held back by Kai. “All of this, how much money did you spend? Clearing the platform, hiring a bunch of thugs!”
Sir Ken was a bit dumbfounded. He thought there would be one of two reactions from the stranger: either for him to try and attack and fight his way out of the situation or to beg for his life. But out of everything, this person seemed to be concerned about money.
“This is what power can do for you. If you have funds, you are able to control this world at will. Blame the game, not the player,” Sir Ken stated.
“You idiot!” Gary continued to shout. “With all that money, you could have helped people. You could have hired these workers to build houses or feed the mouths of those struggling every day.”
“There are those that are losing their lives, taking their own lives because they can’t afford to pay the next bill, and then there’s you wasting money like this on clearing a platform for such a stupid thing!”
Sir Ken’s lip was curling. He particularly didn’t like the insult shouted at him.
“The way you speak is of a poor man. Don’t blame the situation because of their own lack of talent and decide to be a victim. Why should I care for their lives? In this world, I’m too busy fighting for myself. What are you idiots doing? Get rid of them!” Sir Ken shouted, flinging his hand forward, and the group of men started to run ahead.
Gary was ready to bulldoze his way through the group. It would be fairly easy for him to do, but he could feel Kai’s hand was still tense around his stomach.
“I’ll show you, Gary. There are other ways of dealing with the situation than just your fists,” Kai stated.
Seeing how calm Kai was, Gary relaxed a bit and stepped back, and instead, Kai moved ahead.
“Are you sure you guys should be doing this?” Kai said as he pulled his phone and waved it in his hand.
“From now on, the Cluster Gang breaks off all ties with you, Sir Ken. Don’t ever contact me again. I’ve ordered my men to fall back.”
Sir Ken could see that the words were true as the men turned around and started to head back up the staircase.
“No, what are you doing!” Sir Ken said, trying to get in the way of some of them, but they just moved past him.
“I’ll pay you out of my own pocket. Just stay and deal with these guys, and then you can go!” Sir Ken continued to shout, but nothing he said or did seemed to work.
“Krazy, explain yourself. Why, after all this time, have you decided to do this now? Don’t you know who you’re dealing with!”
There was a slight pause on the other end of the phone.
“Due to all of the business we have done over the years, I will give you an answer. This time, it appears that you have messed with the wrong person. I thought this would happen one day, but not for you to be this stupid.”
“I suggest you beg for your life because there isn’t anyone stupid enough to go against one of the Kings.”
The phone on the other end had hung up with the final message passed on.
“One of the... Kings.”
