Dennis looked dumbfounded. Why was his brother here as well? Behaving himself much better this time,
he ventured first by asking, “W-Why are you looking for Ed, Tucker?”
Tucker replied, “Well, Master Burch told us to come and deliver a car to Ed. We heard that Ed is getting
married tomorrow and might need a wedding car, so we’re all here; even Master Burch is in the car at the
back. Alright, let’s cut the crap. Do you know where Ed lives?”
Dennis nearly spat blood upon hearing Tucker’s reply. He knew that Master Burch was a big shot who
was even more powerful than Mr. Mussolini. Why would such a powerful figure deliver a wedding car to
Ed as well? What exactly was going on?
Unwilling to reconcile himself to the fact, he asked, “Does Master Burch know Ed in person, Tucker?
Why would he come in person to deliver a wedding car to Ed?”
Tucker answered, “I heard that he was instructed to do so by Master Tiger of South Street, one of the
big shots in the city. Not only that, Stanley personally made the arrangements himself. Just think about
it—even Master Tiger commands great respect in Eastcliff, not to mention Stanley. As a result, half of
Eastcliff’s gangsters sprang into action upon their instructions.”
Dennis was flabbergasted. Both Master Tiger and Stanley were powerful figures whom he would never
come into contact with. Stanley wasn’t a big deal; he existed more in legend than in reality since he had
been concentrating on his business these years and rarely appeared in public. On the contrary, Master
Tiger of South Street was truly formidable, for he was the real bigwig right now.
Apparently, many things credited under Billy’s name were actually Master Tiger’s work. What exactly
gave Ed the honor to have these bigwigs ordering people to deliver wedding cars to him? Dennis
couldn’t help but ask, “Ed is my cousin. W-Why am I not aware that he’s actually acquainted with so
many big shots?”
Tucker’s eyes widened. “Really? You are a man of substance who never shows off, you brat! Is Ed really
your cousin?”
Dennis nodded. “That’s right. His mother is my third eldest aunt!”
Tucker immediately gave Dennis a punch. “F*ck—you are going to get rich, brat! I heard that the matter
this time was arranged by someone named Mr. Larson, who is Ed’s best friend. Tiger is mainly doing
things for Mr. Larson right now. Now that your cousin knows such a bigwig in person, you will surely have
a meteoric rise in the future, brat! Don’t forget about me by then!” Tucker was so excited that his voice
quavered as he spoke. He could never get in touch with these bigwigs even in his wildest dreams!
Dennis was on the verge of tears right now. Had he known earlier that Matthew possessed such a great
ability, he would have sucked up to the latter just now! Now that he had offended Matthew, he couldn’t go
back and apologize to Matthew even if he wanted to. He wished he could kill himself on the spot right
now. If he could get himself acquainted with Matthew, his connection with Ed alone would make him fare
much better than Tucker in the future!
Dennis felt like crying, but he couldn’t shed a tear. He had forcibly made a mess of the golden
opportunity just now! Just then, Tucker urged, “What are you waiting for, you brat? Hurry up and take us
to meet your cousin.”
Dennis forcibly suppressed his heartache while telling Tucker where Ed lived. “You guys go ahead,
Tucker. M-My stomach is upset, so I have to take some medicine.”
Tucker looked puzzled. He muttered, “Is your stomach upset? Are you suffering from appendicitis? Hurry
up and come over later, you brat. You must introduce Mr. Larson to me; at the very least, you must
introduce me to your cousin. I’ve helped you so many times in the past, so don’t forget about me now
that there is an opportunity!”
Dennis nearly fled the scene as he didn’t dare to say a word. All he wanted right now was to find
somewhere to hide—it’d be even better if he could leave this city. Tucker would probably kill him before
doing anything else if he learned that he had offended Matthew!
