Chapter 58
Will ended the call, then took a deep breath betere walking up to Wilbur slowly and bowing deeply to him. “I’m so sorry, Mister Penn. I was foolish enough to offend you. Please punish me as you see fit.”
Will’s gesture left everyone in shock.
Sammy, Steve, and all the men in the room had their jaws hit the ground.
Even Nancy was shocked. She did not know what had just happened. Why did Will’s attitude make a complete reversal in the blink of an eye?
Wilbur was the only one who knew what happened because of his heightened senses.
He heard every single word in the conversation between Will and his father.
Wilbur saw that and frowned. “I won’t give you a hard time. Since you did apologize. I’ll forgive you.‘
“Thank you, sir. Give me a second. My father will be right here to apologize to you personally,” Will said carefully.
Those words shocked everyone once again. They could not understand what could have possibly happened for someone like Will to suddenly be so respectful of this young man.
What was going to become of the Torrent clan’s pride with how Will was acting? There were other people around, too. It was like a slap in the face to the clan.
However, Will knew that someone who was capable of holding down the three clans and making his father: that was far more terrifying than any of the men in the room could understand.

At a time like this, the best thing that could happen was to hope for Wilbur’s forgiveness to avoid bringing tragedy to the Torrent clan. His pride was out of the question
Steve was no fool, so he shut up at once upon noting the look on Will’s face.
However, Sarmy did not get it at all and was starting to feel like Will was a bit of a loser.
“Say, Mister Torrent, what’s up with the Torrent clan, huh? You’re so scared of everything. How are we supposed to even work together?” Sammy said in a condescending tone.
Will had yet to stand up for him and restore his pride, and he was not going to back down until that happened.
Yet just then, Will turned around and said coldly to Sammy, “Get out of here right now. Piss off back to Westhill, or I’ll make sure you disappear from Seechertown forever.”
Will was far less kind to an unknowing Sammy.
Their collaboration hardly mattered at a time like this. On top of that, he did not want to let Sammy see what would happen when his father got there.
Sammy was in shock. He did not understand why Will was being so cold to him all of a sudden and even threatened him.
“What’s the meaning of this, Mister Torrent?
“What’s the meaning of this? This is all your fauli! Get out of here!” Will roared
Sammy trembled all over, remembering that the Torrents were not to be messed with. However, he really did tot want to just let this matter på.
He scrambled to his feet and said, “Very well. Shine you don’t want to work with me, I’ll be taking my leave. It seems like the Torrent clan doesn’t have much to shout about anyways.”
Upon saying that, he waved a hand before swaggering out of the place with his ment
Will scuffed, then turned to look at Steve and everyone else. “You guys get out of here too.”
Steve nodded silently, leaving with his men at once.
Just then, Wilbur, Nancy, and Will were the only people left in the room.
Will scrambled to open a bottle of whiskey, pouring Wilbur a glass and passing it to him respectfully as he said, “Please have a drink, Mister Penn.”
Just then, Nancy was completely dumbfounded. She had no idea what had just happened.
She was worried to death about Wilbur, only to find the tables turned in his favor the next moment. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
What did he do for Will to treat him with such respect?
Just as she was wondering to herself, the door of the room opened to reveal Gerard entering in a panic.
