Chapter 581 Exiting the Underworld
The other bosses were clearly displeased. "Mr. White, you''re usually pretty smart. Why can''t you
see through this?"
"Yeah, exactly! What are you worried about? Even if the military took Ashton down, it was because
he caused the trouble first!
"We should just mind our own business and stay out of trouble in our little corner. Are those military
guys just looking for a fight because they''re bored?"
Looking at their impatient expressions, Cassius shook his head and sighed. "Forget it. It looks like
I''m the only one with a clear head around here."
Then, he turned to Augustus and respectfully nodded his head. "Master Osborn, my Nightfall Gang
has always been under the protection of Boss Jarett, and our gang''s affairs have long been aligned
with the Cole Gang.
"Today, with so many bosses present here, I officially dere my withdrawal from the Nightfall
Gang, and I will no longer be involved in any underworld affairs in the future!
"From now on, the Nightfall Gang will belong to the Cole Gang, and I have no further ties with it!"
Augustus, along with the other bosses, were taken aback, unable to find the right words to express
their astonishment.
Everyone looked at Cassius with incredulous gazes.
No one knew what kind of act he was suddenly putting on.
"Mr. White, your Nightfall Gang''s influence is on the rise recently." Augustus was puzzled.
"Are you really stepping down from it just because you suspect Ashton''s death might be rted to
the military?"
Cassius sighed. "The situation in the underworld is unpredictable these days, but all you guys care
about is fighting each other and seizing territory. I have nothing to say about that. I''ve made up my
mind to return to my hometown, start a small business, and hopefully avoid getting caught up in this
chaotic underworld storm…"
With that, he gave another nod and gesture of respect.
Then, he simply made his way through the crowd and exited the meeting room.
Looking at Cassius'' back, everyone exchanged puzzled nces.
"What''s going on? Did the boss of the Nightfall Gang just quit like that?"
"Has he gone mad? Did he just hand over the entire Nightfall Gang to the Cole Gang?"
"That''s right! The Nightfall Gang is quite a force to reckon with. How could Mr. White simply
abandon it like that?!"
Although Augustus was also baffled by the situation, he saw it as a good thing for the Cole Gang.
Therefore, he was pleased to witness it unfold.
He then lowered his hands, signaling the crowd to fall silent.
"Alright, with Mr. White''s decision, he must have his own reasons.
"He may have quitted from the underworld, but the rest of us still have to make a living! Let''s get
back to the previous topic now."
The bosses nodded with different expressions on their faces and agreed. "Yes, Master Osborn.
We''ll follow your lead."
Meanwhile, Kingsley rested his chin on his hand as he lost in thought.
He was truly taken aback by Cassius'' unexpected actions.
Cassius'' spection about the connection between Ashton and Xanxus'' deaths and the military had
already caught him off guard just moments ago.
However, with Cassius boldly dering his withdrawal from the underworld now…
It became evident to Kingsley that he was a meticulous, observant, and decisive person.
He''s definitely not an ordinary person!
How could anyone possibly bear to let go of the power they''ve painstakingly built over the years?
Kingsley narrowed his eyes slightly.
It seemed that he had to get to know Cassius better.
What a waste it would be to let such talent go unused!
Just as Kingsley was nning to find an opportunity to meet Cassius, Augustus began his final
summary.
"We were interrupted by Mr. White just now. I will ask again, are you all willing to join the Cole Gang
and demand an exnation from the Jeanne Gang?"
Almost all of the bosses nodded in agreement.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
None of them were willing to let bygones be bygones between Victoria and Boss Jarett.
The entire room, except for Baron, was on edge.
He squirmed in his seat, feeling incredibly conflicted.
The majority of the underworld forces in the Sris Province had aligned themselves with Jarett''s
team now.
However…
Kingsley was the one who possessed the Northern Draken Tag.
