Chapter 2448


    Thomas sneered and covered his face to look as he stared at the head that popped out from behind


    Mrs.Flores'' shoulder.


    "Why are you hiding when you so bravely told me you''d p me again if I repeat my words?" he


    sneered.


    "Come out here now. I''m going to say it again."


    Yannie bit her lip as she silently stared at Thomas.


    Joshua squinted at Thomas as he indifferently remarked, "Mr.Howard, is your face not stinging at the


    moment? If you dare to say such things again, maybe I''d join Yannie in pping you, too.Once I do


    that, you might not be able to sitfortably and threaten her anymore."


    With a smirk, he coldly added, "Thomas Howard, I advise you to stop while you still can.You''ve created


    enough chaos for my family this morning, and if you continue with your act, I won''t let you leave so


    easily.


    "You should know that the Lynch family and the Landry family are the ones in charge of Merchant City.If


    I want to do something to you, no one can stop me."

    Thomas narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, knowing that Joshua was more than capable of doing


    what he said.


    Thus, Thomas sneered and stood up from the couch.


    "If that''s the case, I''ll be taking my leave now.He who fights and runs away lives to fight another


    day.This is your territory, after all."


    He squinted and looked at Joshua before he sneered, "Still, it won''t be long until you and the Landry


    family lose control over this city.Just wait and see."


    After that, he took his coat and strode to the door.


    Joshua sat on the couch as he watched Thomas leave with a smile on his face.


    When Thomas and his assistant were finally far away, Luna exhaled deeply and walked toward Yannie


    and Mrs.Flores, extending her hands to grab Yannie''’s hand.


    "Does it hurt?"


    Yannie bit her lip and shook her head.


    "I...It''s fine."


    Looking at how scared Yannie was, the scene when Yannie fearlessly stood up against Thomas


    crossed Luna''s mind.


    She sighed.


    ''Yannie, I never thought you could be so brave against Thomas."


    Yannie blushed instantly.She lowered her head to look at her still- reddish palm.It felt numb BBs-\IMI


    warm, the aftermath of pping Thomas.


    Truth to be told, she, too, was baffled as to why she was a different person when she went up against


    Thomas.


    Just when Yannie was spacing out as she stared at her palm, Joshua remotely piped in, "Are you so


    brave when you face anyone, or is it only against Thomas?"


    Yannie and Luna were stunned at this.


    "What do you mean?"


    Luna raised her head and looked at Joshua dubiously.


    "I noticed that she''d be nervous around you and me, but against Thomas, she''s nothing like that.


    "She seemed angry, disappointed, and helpless.The way she looked at Thomas was different; it was


    full of emotions."


    Joshua then fixed his sight at Yannie.


    "Do you know Thomas?"
