Lyndon fixed a cold stare on him. "Ah, so it was you, you son of a bitch, cowardly attacking someone weaker? Are you aware of the law?

Do you realize the prison time for assault?"

The man responded with a sneer of contempt.

“Are you trying to scare me? I was infamous on these streets when you were still in diapers, you brat! Listen here, your son scratched my son, Either get down on your knees and apologize to my son, or brace yourself!"

His demeanor was both threatening and smug.

Elma recalled the man's earlier behavior and nervously pulled on Lyndon's clothing.

"Mr. Fernandez, it might be wise not to provoke him. He's got influential connections."

Influential connections?

Lyndon was curious just how influential this man was!

Lyndon reassured Elma, “Don't worry, Elma. As long as I'm here, Sheldon is under my protection.”

His gaze was steady, and his voice was calm, offering a profound sense of safety.

Elma hesitated, her lips parting, but ultimately she remained silent.

Lyndon faced the man and said, “I'm curious. What do you plan to do to me?"

The man scrutinized Lyndon and said, "You're not from around here, are you? Let me share a story. Once, a guy hit my kid, and in response, I wrecked their home and let my dog bite them. They were just like you, mentioning the law. Guess how that turned out? Go on, tell him."

He gestured for his friends to share the outcome with Lyndon.

One of his friends said, "You'd do well to apologize to Elmore. His uncle is Franco Watts, the town's deputy mayor. Cross him, and you'll regret it."

So, the town's deputy mayor Franco was this man's support? That explained his boldness and attitude.

Lyndon glanced at his two companions.

The two exchanged glances. Kendal, puzzled, asks, “You're Franco Watts's nephew?"

Elmore sneered at him, "Who do you think you are to interrupt?"
