Chapter 302 A Debt of 800 Million Dollars
“Hubert, you know as well what the Jennings family has done in Sealand. Today is the day you pay the price for everything. Take him down!” Caspian said coldly.
Two special forces soldiers came over and took Hubert down.
Hubert was still looking sluggish. He showed no resistance as he was manhandled. He knew clearly that he no longer had the chance to turn the situation around, and he dared not show his opposition.
There were so many armed soldiers here that he would be riddled with holes the moment he showed signs of resistance.
“Mr. Lynch! Mr. Lynch! Please, spare me, give me a chance! If you spare my life, I’ll donate all the assets under the Jennings family’s name!” Hubert screamed till his throat was hoarse. Thist was his last hope.
No matter how painfully Hubert screamed, Caspian was not moved.
The Jennings family had committed many evil deeds, and they had to be gotten rid of.
“Sylvia, deal with the aftermath,” Caspian said, glancing at the corpses on the ground.
He then took Willow’s hand in his and left Jennings Villa. At this moment, the rain gradually
stopped.
Sylvia looked at the two bodies on the floor in disgust.
These two bastards had laid a hand on Willow, so their deaths were deserved.
“Burn this place up!” Sylvia ordered.
The fleet of more than a hundred SUVs left the villa, leaving loud noises in their wake. The place that had been Jennings Villa was now engulfed in flames.
The next day, a shocking piece of news was passed around in Sealand. The most powerful family in Sealand had been demolished, and Hubert Jennings, the leader of the family, had
also been arrested!
The Kanes of Dhord City investigated Caspian’s identity for a while, but they failed to obtain any information about him. The only piece of information they had gotten was about Caspian’s several–year stint in the army.
The Kane family concluded that they had been overthinking. Caspian was just strong in
combat because he was an ex–soldier.

“We should strike, sir. A command from you and I’ll lead my men in an attack against Caspian and exterminate him! He’s just a retired soldier. There’s nothing to fear!” Cole said in haste.
“The York family will be glad to work with the Kane family in any operation!” Celestia said emotionally.
Celestia had been waiting for this moment for a long time. She used to be a beautiful woman, but Caspian had destroyed her face, and now she had lost the courage to show her face in public without a disguise.
Cole wanted to take revenge against Caspian as well. If not for Caspian, he would still be the high–and–mighty leader of Galecrest. However, Caspian had destroyed everything he had.
Both of them hated Caspian to the bone.
Unfortunately, Cole had forgotten the shock Caspian’s power had given him back in Galecrest.
“Cole, Celestia, Wendell!” Chandler called out with a grin.
“Yes, sir!” The three of them put on serious expressions.
“Gather your men together. We’re attacking Caspian! Not only Southlake City, but we must also get our hands on the bulk of his territories in Easton, Naporia, and South Diatoran!” Chandler narrowed his eyes and said coolly.
Chandler’s goal was not only to antagonize Caspian, of course. What he wanted was to expand his power.
Catastrophes had happened in both Easton and Naporia recently, so this was a great opportunity to strike. If they managed to get ahold of those territories, the Kane family would become an important force in Diatoran.
Chandler’s face gradually sank while watching Cole leave.
“Is there nothing for me to do, sir?” the senior protector of the family, Alfred, asked.
“It’s not yet time for you to strike. Let Cole and the others deal with it for now!” Chandler said calmly.
Alfred nodded and did not say more.
After wiping out the Jennings family, Caspian and Willow completed their photoshoot and headed to Sealand Airport. They were about to leave the city.
“Rebecca, how about you’come with me to Southlake City? It’s my home turf, you know,”
Willow said, smiling at Rebecca.
Rebecca was slightly tempted, so she blinked at Caspian, asking, “Uh… This depends on Mr.

Caspian had bought Starsphere Media and was now her boss, so she was obligated to ask him for his opinion.
“You’ll say yes, won’t you, honey? And I’m the president of Southlake Corporation! Don’t I have a say in this?” Willow said with a playful frown.
“Yes, yes, sure, certainly. You’re the president, so we’ll do as you say!” Caspian grinned.
Willow k*ssed Caspian on the cheek.
Rebecca covered her grin with her palm. “I don’t really want to go anymore, Willow.”
“Huh? Why? Why did you change your mind?” Willow asked in surprise.
“I don’t want to be your third wheel! You’ve been generous with the PDA!” Rebecca answered.
Willow flushed. At that moment, her phone rang. After taking the call, her face gradually became grim.
“What happened?” Caspian asked.
After the call, Willow covered her face and sobbed into her palms. “Something went wrong, honey! My father was kidnapped!”
Caspian was perplexed. Shouldn’t Carl be working in Southlake? Why was he kidnapped?
“It’s okay, Willow. What happened?” Caspian patted Willow on the shoulder and asked with
concern.
“My father called me just now to tell me he was tricked. He went to an underground casino and lost several hundred million there! He’s locked up in the casino now, and they want to cut his hands off if we don’t pay off the debt!” Willow said in tears.
Ever since Willow became the president of Southlake Corp, Carl became arrogant.
While working in Southlake Corp, he also frequented casinos, and he would make larger and larger bets every time he went. He wanted to earn a big sum of money this way to heighten his status in the Stewart family.
Most importantly, he had been keeping everything from Kate, his wife.
He failed to resist the temptation and went to a famous casino city in Diatoran, wanting to shoot his shot there. Gambling businesses there were tacitly allowed by the Diatoranian government, so they would not be investigated.
After some consideration, Carl made the difficult decision to take out all his savings and head over to the casino citý. He won some money at first, which excited him, but then he started making bigger and bigger bets and ended up losing all his money within two days.

Indignant, Carl wanted to win his money back, so he borrowed a high–interest loan from the casino. Within several days, with the interest piling up, he ended up owing the casino a debt of Soo million dollars!
Carl was dumbfounded. He did not have that much money! He was under the control of the casino now, too. He could only call his daughter for help
Caspian felt somewhat resigned. His father–in–law had seemed like a nice man to him. Why did he end up doing something so dumb
Fortunately, it was Carl. If it were Kate who had done this, Caspian wouldn’t do anything to help at all.
“Honey! I’ve already ended my relations with the Stewart family, but I’m still quite close to my father. He was nice to you too. Please, help him!” Willow sobbed.
