Walking up to Ferry, Andy sat beside him and greeted him with a cold smile, pouring himself a cup of wine and tasting its flavor. "A good taste!"
"Take it if you like it." Ferry offered the bottle of wine to Andy respectfully, "Andy, I think, you'd better just stay out of it."
"I am surely involved in this case, considering the relationship between me and Autumn." Andy replied in a calm and composed manner.
"But you've already given up the old business." Ferry was shocked that Andy decided to protect Autumn. Andy used to have a overriding prestige in the gangland, but he had long quit the industry.
While Ferry was no more than an novice involved in the gang affairs, Andy had absented himself from the gang world and established his family. But Ferry had been bombarded with Andy's exploits.
Ferry had thought of Andy's influence when evolving his scheme against Autumn but assumed Andy would not interfere in his plan.
And what justified Andy's interference?
But at that moment, Ferry came to a conclusion that those concerned would put their heart and soul into serving Andy if he asked for their help; even though Andy had long been out of contact with anyone in the gang affairs.
Ferry was, at that moment, badly wanted on the phone by influential and powerful personalities, who threatened to doom him if he continued his petty design.
Seven or eight calls successively bombarded on him, and then Ferry realized he had offended a person he shouldn't.
Ferry was holding the receiver, paralyzed with fear and then went into silence.
"So can you make sense of these calls?" Andy questioned Ferry after the end of those menacing calls, "Now can you make a decision?"
"What on earth could you be satisfied with?" Ferry looked at Andy in a cold manner.
"You should have gotten even with Yvonne, who is responsible for the
ust a week is enough." Ferry promised to Andy, "After a week, I will leave Y City without any responsibility left."
"Okay." Andy granted Ferry 's request, "Remember one-week's time. And then I will designate someone to see you off."
Actually Andy would send someone to supervise Ferry's removal.
After the departure of Andy and Charles, Ferry collapsed into the couch, overcome with a growing sense of futility.
"Ferry, how could you leave Y City like this?" one of Ferry's underlings challenged Ferry.
"No alternative!" Ferry forced a helpless smile as he spoke to his underling, "Andy would doom me considering his lasting influence and power in our gangland. I have to leave Y City, otherwise, I would meet my violent end."
"What would be the consequences of your removal?" Ferry's underlings were uncertain of their future prospects.
"Firstly, let my statement be known to all of you that whoever willing to follow me will be treated well or willing to stay will be duly regarded. Second, tomorrow you have to arrange me a private meeting with Leila unnoticed." Ferry let off a cold smile. Actually Ferry was not ready to spare Autumn under any circumstances on the ground of his sufferings caused because of Autumn.
