Chapter 5567
Gustavo, who was extremely frightened, no longer had the arrogance and pride he had before. Heretreated towards the window and begged, “Everyone, if you have something to say, please speak itcarefully. Don’t be impulsive! If you want money, I can give you a lot of money—how about one millionUS dollars per person? I’ll give you ten million!”
After that, he hurriedly added, “By the way, don’t you all want to drink red wine and eat steak and caviar?From today on, let’s start. I’ve got all your steaks, red wine, caviar, and other high-end ingredients allcovered! How about black truffles? I’ll arrange for them to be delivered tomorrow, as well as the bestbluefin tuna! And the best Chinese and Japanese food in the United States! By the way, do you likesushi? There is a little old man in Japan who makes sushi very well and is quite famous. As long as yousay a word, I will ask him to come here tomorrow and serve it to you with his own hands. Make sushi! Ifhe doesn’t come, I will kill his whole family!”
Joseph sarcastically said, “Gustavo, do you have any interest in writing a bad check here? You said youwould give us money, right? Then take it out now! Don’t give me specifically 10 million dollars. I don’twant any of your 10 million dollars. You can directly give each of these men two million dollars. Give itnow!”
Gustavo, with a sad face, replied, “Joseph, we know that I am in prison. How can I have so much moneyand give it to you immediately? But as long as you give me a little time, I will definitely arrange themoney!”novelbin
Joseph walked up to Gustavo, smiling sarcastically. He said, “Gustavo, you are a little confused aboutthe situation. Let me tell you the truth, even if I give you time, you can’t come up with the money.”
Gustavo quickly said, “Impossible, this money is nothing to me at all. I just need to make a phone call tomy son, and by this time tomorrow at the latest, he will be able to arrange all the money, whether it iscash or transfer.”
Joseph turned his head at this time. After looking around and seeing that the prison guards did not cometo intervene, and others did not dare to step forward, he knew that even if God appeared tonight, it wouldbe impossible to save Gustavo.
So, he nodded at his men, and a group of people immediately moved Gustavo’s men, unable to move,and threw them dozens of meters away.
At this time, Joseph smiled and said to Gustavo, “Gustavo, stop struggling. To tell you the truth, you mustdie today.”
Gustavo shuddered and blurted out, “Joseph, if you kill me, the Rothschild family will not let you go, myson and the entire Sanchez family will not let you go!”
Joseph snorted and curled his lips and said, “Gustavo, before you die, I will make it clear to you that theperson who wants your life is not me, but your son.”
“This is impossible!” Gustavo retorted without hesitation, “My son will never do this. This kind of thing, theSanchez family will never harm their relatives!”
Joseph smiled and said, “Your son asked me to tell you before you die, the Sanchez family is a greatfamily and cannot be held back by the US government and the Rothschild family because of you. Nomatter what, if you are alive, the Sanchez family can only be controlled by them. But if you die, theSanchez family can break these shackles. So now is the time for you to sacrifice for the Sanchez family.”
As he said, Joseph asked him, “Do you think the crown prince of any country is still willing to stay in theposition of the crown prince and wait wholeheartedly for his biological father to come back when hisbiological father is kidnapped by the enemy? Isn’t that the actions of an idiot?”
Gustavo was stunned on the spot.
Joseph approached him and continued to ask, “Gustavo, do you think your son can do it?”
Gustavo lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Seeing his arrogance, Joseph sneered, “Are you an idiot?”
When speaking, Joseph especially emphasized the pronunciation of the word ‘you.’
Upon hearing Joseph’s relentless resolve, Gustavo was utterly shocked and filled with despair. Herealized that Joseph was determined to end his life, leaving him with no escape.
Desperate, Gustavo begged Joseph, “Joseph, I implore you, for the sake of my fellow prisoners, sparemy life. Even if you let me have a phone call with someone from the Rothschild family, they will certainlyhelp me regain control of the Sanchez family. I’ll give you whatever you desire, and I can even arrangefor your release from this prison!”
Joseph responded with a sly smile, “Impossible, Gustavo. I’m sharing this with you to make it clear thatyou must die today. I will do everything in my power to ensure that you have no chance to beguile orbribe me. My rationality tells me that if I spare you today, your son will be dead tomorrow. Furthermore,my rationality informs me that even if you manage to leave Brooklyn Prison and the United States, yourson will undoubtedly ensure you don’t return to Mexico alive. So, you must die, no matter what.”
Gustavo’s heart sank into despair. He understood that if Joseph was sharing all this, it was only toeliminate any possibility of mercy. Every word exchanged between them only deepened Gustavo’spredicament.
Meanwhile, Jagoan overheard the conversation as it reached his ears. Lucas, unable to hear as well asJagoan, was puzzled as he gazed at the crowd three floors away.
Perplexed, Lucas remarked, “Something doesn’t seem right. If they only intended to teach Gustavo alesson, it should have been over by now. Could there be some new development in this situation?”
Jagoan stood up with a smile and suggested, “Instead of speculating here, why don’t we go over and seefor ourselves?”
Lucas was alarmed and hurriedly cautioned Jagoan, “Brother, don’t get involved. These two groups aredangerous people, and we can’t afford to provoke them.”
Jagoan smiled and replied, “I’m not here to get involved; I’m here to mediate. You stay here for a while,and I’ll be back soon.”
Lucas was genuinely worried when he saw Jagoan approach the crowd. He anxiously whispered,“Brother, it’s not my concern. Why are you trying to mediate? Whoever steps forward at a time like this isasking for trouble. Please come back quickly!”
Jagoan offered him a reassuring smile, waved, and proceeded toward the commotion.
Meanwhile, in the midst of the crowd, Gustavo continued to plead desperately, “Joseph, if you kill metoday, you’ll be signing your own death sentence on my son’s account. Consider how the Rothschildfamily might spare you. I am their leverage! As long as I’m here, many of their operations in Mexico willrun smoothly. If I die, they’ll hold you responsible!”
Joseph, however, remained composed and retorted with a smile, “It doesn’t matter. Once you’re gone,your son will quickly negotiate with the Rothschild family. By then, he’ll bail me out.”
In a moment of frustration, Gustavo blurted out, “Impossible! Joseph, my son can’t be trusted even if heswears an oath. He may have brawn, but he lacks brains! You’re foolish to believe him!”
Joseph, seemingly unperturbed, scoffed, “You understand nothing, Gustavo. You truly overestimate yourimportance to me. Many of my brothers are aware that we were ordered by your son to kill you. If hedoesn’t protect me or us, the news of him killing you will spread within the Sanchez family. He won’t lastlong there.
“As for the Rothschild family, they won’t seek vengeance after your death. Their family’s motto forcenturies has been profit first, and they will promptly collaborate with your son after your demise. Theyhave no reason to do otherwise. You fail to comprehend how you managed to exert dominance in Mexicofor so long.”
Gustavo’s sense of hopelessness grew with each passing moment. He knew that his death wasimminent because his son had orchestrated a situation where there was no escape, and Joseph hadresolved to end his life. Now, surrounded by assailants with no one to protect him, he faced no outcomeother than death.
Joseph, having lost patience with the conversation, gestured to his subordinates and ordered coldly, “Killhim!”
In an instant, several young men armed with sharp weapons closed in on Gustavo.
As Gustavo gazed at the menacing blades, he could only imagine the gruesome nature of his impendingdemise.
However, just as the situation seemed irredeemable, a voice from outside the crowd shouted, “Hold it!Show some restraint!”
