The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power -
Chapter 579 Endless Reasons for Accusations
Thinking back to what Kingsley had said to her just now...
"I'm afraid that today's meeting might be a trap. Stay on guard."
In an instant, everything clicked for Victoria.
Just as she was feeling uneasy, Augustus shifted his gaze toward her.
"Miss Jeanne, the bodies of three Cole Gang members were found on your turf! I want an explanation from you," he demanded.
At that, Victoria's expression changed abruptly as she asked, "What do you mean by this, Master Osborn? Do you think I killed them?"
"I'm not saying that." Augustus denied it, but his expression grew increasingly imposing.
"However, those people died on your turf after all! You have to give us an explanation, don't you think?"
At once, her delicate face turned cold as she retorted, "The Cole Gang holds great power, whereas my Jeanne Gang is just a small business. We would never dare to harm your people, Master Osborn. Please give me some time, and I promise I will replace out the truth!"
As soon as her voice fell, a boss with a goatee sneered.
"Small business? Miss Jeanne, there's no need for such modesty. If Jeanne Gang is a small business, aren't we all just poor peasants?"
The other bosses also followed suit and joined in with sharp retorts.
"He's right. Jeanne Gang has taken over the Sunshine Casino from Xanxus, and you're even considered one of the Seven Legends now. Are you planning to play the role of a tiger in sheep's clothing, Miss Jeanne?
"You see, Jeanne Gang's power has grown significantly lately. It seems that Miss Jeanne is no longer satisfied with her current position in the underworld!"
They had already synced up their game plan before the meeting began.
So now, they were all rallying behind Augustus and speaking up for him.
At this time, Zion chimed in with a sarcastic tone,
"I see now, Miss Jeanne. You're eyeing Boss Jarett's position, aren't you? Killing people from the Cole Gang is your first step in provoking him, right?" Zion was known for being cautious, but precisely because of that, he was small-minded.
He was the kind of person who clung to even the smallest grudges and would go to any lengths to seek revenge.
When Kingsley broke Axel's leg earlier, it was a huge blow to his ego.
Consequently, he also developed deep resentment toward Victoria.
Seeing that everyone was targeting Victoria, how could he possibly miss this opportunity?!
Therefore, he seized the chance to directly accuse Victoria of intentionally provoking Jarett.
Victoria's face flushed with anger.
"Zion, don't spout unfounded accusations! I have done nothing wrong! Stop trying to frame me!" she exclaimed.
Zion sneered. "Unfounded? I don't think so.
"You've been acting all high and mighty ever since taking control of the casino. Clearly, you're itching to expand your influence even more. "Otherwise, how do you explain the dead bodies of Cole Gang members being found in your territory?"
Victoria gritted her teeth.
"I will never be short of reasons if you want to accuse me! When I uncover the truth one day, I will definitely give Boss Jarett an explanation!" "Heh, do you think we'll even give you a chance?" Zion refused to back down.
"And I've heard it all. Kenny's men have been roaming around your territory lately, but you haven't lifted a finger!
"Now that everyone knows he has turned against Boss Jarett, why are you still close to him at this critical moment? What's there to defend?"
Seeing the intense confrontation between Zion and Victoria, Augustus couldn't help but smile imperceptibly.
He was still pondering how to pin the blame on Victoria, but Zion had already spilled all the words he was about to say.
However, he was puzzled by Zion's intense anger today.
When Augustus and Rayden arrived, Axel had already been taken away.
Therefore, Augustus was unaware of the conflict that had erupted between Victoria and Zion.
However, none of this mattered to him.
What mattered the most was that he had to bring Victoria down under the pressure of everyone present.
With this thought in mind, he slammed the table.
"Enough! Miss Jeanne, you don't need to defend yourself anymore! There's no doubt that Jeanne Gang is involved in this matter!"
