Chapter 182
In the stables of Gray Manor, Catherine stood with Jerome Latorre, the leader of the Lemoyne Raiders, a man with white hair and an exaggerated beard.

"Old guy, what did these two losers tell you?"

La Torre patted his somewhat sloppy clothes and replied casually:

"These two boys came to Shebeledi and found me. They asked me to help them kill you, and then they would sell Bravest's land or something. In short, it probably meant that they would make money. , and then they will give us a lot of support, a lot of money, blah blah blah and so on."

While listening to what La Torre said, Catherine looked at Gareth Bravest and Gerald Bravest who were tied up and thrown to the ground in the stable. She calmly watched them cry bitterly. She begged, regretted, and admitted her mistake until she fell silent and then resigned herself to her fate. Then she finally asked:
"Are you really from the Bravest family?"

"You want to find someone to kill me. I can forgive you for this idea, but you are actually stupid enough to find La Torre? It doesn't matter that you betrayed me, but how dare you say that you want to sell our family's land?!"

La Torre stood aside and watched quietly. He noticed someone coming from the direction of the mansion not far away. Looking at Catherine who was squeezing Gareth's neck in the stable, La Torre turned and walked towards the person. .

"Tacitus?"

"Ah, Mr. La Torre, you are here too. Just in time, I want to come to Mrs. Bravest to ask what to do next." Dutch said politely.

La Torre looked at the blood splattered all over Dutch's body, but he didn't look injured. He didn't ask any more questions and just said:

"Just go and stay like everyone else. There are so many places worth looting in Gray Manor, shouldn't we allow you to stay quietly for a while?"

Dutch could clearly feel that he was regarded by La Torre as the same person as those little people outside who were searching for corpses and rummaging through boxes and cabinets to pick up leftovers.

"Listen, Mr. La Torre, I only have a cooperative relationship with Mrs. Bravest, do you understand that? So if you have nothing else to say, then don't stand in my way."

Hearing what Dutch said, La Torre chuckled, but before he could get angry, Catherine grabbed the hair of both heads with one hand, came to La Torre with an ax in the other and said:
"Old guy, help me get these two dealt with. They shouldn't have the nerve to meet the ancestors of our Bravest family."

La Torre took the heads of Gareth and Gerald. He did not have an argument with Dutch. He only glanced at Dutch again and then turned around and left. Catherine, who was covered in blood, looked at him. Dach looked at herself again, and she said:

"What's the matter? Mr. Tacitus, could it be that you also cut off someone's head? That's why you guessed it like this?"

Dutch didn't want to talk more. He simply ignored the question and said with a fake smile:

"Ma'am, what are your plans next?"

Catherine frowned and asked:

"I thought you and your people should be ready to sneak away at this time? What, the money I gave you is not enough to satisfy your appetite?"

Dutch looked at Catherine and said with a chuckle:

"As a human being, you have to have a big appetite and have big dreams!"...

"Why did it end up like this! Mr. Callahan, the governor is going crazy with anxiety. How could Mr. Gray disappear at this critical moment!"

Rubeus Baird, the secretary in the governor's office, was so anxious that he circled in front of Arthur's eyes.

Arthur said calmly:
"So, what is the governor going to do? Is he ready to send troops to suppress it?"

These words made Baird jump even more, and he said with a tearful voice:

"Send troops?! Impossible, absolutely impossible, this matter must control its influence to the smallest extent, and let those damn newspapers stop publishing this matter on the front pages of newspapers across the country. All the strength! If you really want to send out the militia or even the army, this matter can't be covered at all!"

I have to say, this Baird is quite interesting. It would make sense if the governor was so anxious. He is just a secretary, why is he so anxious?
Arthur poured another glass of wine into Baird's already empty glass and said:

"What should I do? Bravest has no intention of giving up at all. The newly appointed Sheriff told me that the people he sent to investigate brought back news that the group of Lemoyne raiders were shouting Saying 'for our cause', they are preparing to attack Rhodes Town. They will not only empty the banks, but also hang every law-abiding businessman like me and all the lackeys of the government."

Baird drank the wine that Arthur had just poured in one gulp, and then motioned for Arthur to continue filling it up. Of course, he still had some preparations and plans for coming this time, but in the original plan, Tavish Gray had to play an important role in it, but now that he got here, he discovered that Tavish Gray was gone, which suddenly made Baird panic.

"Mr. Callahan, now that Tavish Gray has run away, let me tell you straight, the governor means to stop this incident at the level of a family struggle, just like it has been in the past few decades. Just like what happened in [-], people are also numb to the news of the two major families’ shopping spree. I have prepared the press release..."

"Stop, stop, stop, just tell me what you are going to do. What you said is to stop the family struggle, but you also need other people's cooperation. Didn't you listen to me, are they already preparing to invade Rhodes Town?" Arthur asked. Broken road.

After another glass of wine, Baird nodded and said:
"Originally, we wanted the Gray family to take the lead and publicly organize some manpower in the name of fighting against the Bravest family. The governor would also privately support some manpower and weapons and equipment..."

Arthur smiled and said:

"The Gray family can come forward, just in name. That's no problem, but apart from manpower and weapons and equipment, what about funds?"

"Money is impossible. Even if money is needed, that old guy Tavish should pay for it! These are the troubles he caused!"

Baird seemed to be a little drunk. He took Arthur's hand and said:

"Mr. Callahan, I'm counting on you now. The governor is preparing to run for the next term... I, I'm counting on you whether my future will be smooth!"

Arthur looked at Baird, and he suddenly felt that this guy had drunk him so much on purpose, right?When did you promise him anything?Why are you counting on him?
