The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 960

Quinton was about to ask someone to give Stefan a ride home to Hunt Manor. However, his subordinate hurriedly came to inform him about something.

"Sir, there's an issue. A group of thugs came. They want us to deliver that b*stard, Stefan, to them. If not, they're going to set this pawnshop on fire!"

"Humph! They're so bold! How dare they make a scene in my territory?"

"They... They look extraordinary, and they come fully armed. The key is the leader comes from a very strong background, so we don't dare to act rashly. So, please... step forward!"

"Okay, I'm curious as to who is courting death!"

Quinton brought nothing with me as he went to Carmine Pawnshop in his casual clothes.

The large ancient gate of Carmine Pawnshop exuded a majestic magnificence. The front courtyard was covered with slab stones several thousand square feet wide. Tall and upright pine trees were planted at either side of the gate, in addition to two large ferocious-looking lion statues that were placed at either side of the door. A large blue signboard was hung above the door with gilded handwriting that read "Carmine Pawnshop."

For Water Dock, Carmine Pawnshop was an important landmark that symbolized absolute solemnity and power. It was a presence that guarded the condition of the whole dock.

Generally, the front courtyard of Carmine Pawnshop was guarded by two rows of security guards. The whole place was quiet and solemn. Besides, it was vastly different from the other crowded, noisy, and messy places in Water Dock.

However, the gate of Carmine Pawnshop was quite crowded. Some who carried along firearms waved them high in the air, chanting, "Hand him over! Hand him over! Hand him over!"

The leader was standing on high ground with no weapon but a torch. At the same time, that person led the crowd and shouted with all her might, "If you don't hand him over, we'll set this place on fire! Hand him over! If not, we'll set fire!"

Quinton walked out and looked closely to find that the leader was a woman.

Besides, he knew that woman. She was the heir of the Murphy family, Seraphina. According to rumors, the Murphy family was going to ally themselves with the Hunt family through marriage.

In other words, this woman was Stefan's future wife.

It also meant that if she stood against Carmine Pawnshop or offended Night Demon, her internal organs might be openly exhibited or sold in the pawnshop the next day.

But she was fearless for Stefan's sake. So what if her organs would be dug out? She could even risk her life, if it came to that.

"Cut the crap. The people I have here aren't ordinary thugs. They've been to wars. Their power will crush your lackeys' easily. Listen to me and hand Stefan over if you don't want your territory to be ruined!"

Seraphina waved her torch and threatened rampantly.

"Miss Murphy, you should know that my Carmine Pawnshop holds a deep grudge against the Hunt family. That year, he slashed my face and ruined it. He also ruined the business I built with sweat and tears. I suffered in silence for four years just so I could get my revenge. Now that I've finally grabbed hold of my enemy, do you think I'll just let him go so easily?"

Quinton put both of his hands in his pockets and asked with a faint smile.

He appeared relaxed and nice, but the ferociousness in his eyes made those experienced thugs tremble in fear.
