Conor, nonchalant, drew his pistol, loaded it, and aimed at Winston.
“To deal with a rebellious dog, we just need to put it down. I bet you mean more to the boss.”
“It’s better to call your own shots than be somebody’s puppet,” he added, looking at Winston. “Do you really want to remain a Compton family’s puppet?”
Hannah’s expression turned serious. “Stop it! Don’t force him,” she snapped.
“Mr. Compton has been my savior. I won’t betray him.” Winston Looked at Conor.
Conor put his gun away with a mocking laugh. “Winston, you’re being foolish. Just because he saved you, you’ll do anything for him?”
He then turned to Hannah, looking emotionlessly at her, and said, “Today, you’ve got only two options. Either join us, or we’ll feed Winston to the sharks.”
“Isn’t that a bit low, even for you?” Winston frowned.
“Low?” Conor chuckled with a glint in his eye. “Winston, our little game is nothing compared to the Compton family!”
Remington gave Hannah a reassuring smile. “Miss Moore, we’re not asking for much. You’re willing to work with us, right? The Lyons Group is focused on lawful operations. Our aim is simply to partner with the Compton family. Please consider it. Will you partner with us, or let Winston face death?”
Hannah looked at them, then suddenly grinned. “I think we’re done here. It’s time to leave, Winston.”
With that, Hannah got up and gestured for Winston to follow. They headed for the deck elevator.
Remington just watched, raising an eyebrow in silence.
At that moment, Conor lifted his gun and fired into the sky!
Bang!
The sound of the gunshot made Hannah freeze in her tracks. She turned around, her eyes cold as she faced them.
Conor, gun in hand, said “Miss Moore, you don’t seem too keen on working with us, do you?”

Hannah stood motionless, while Winston stepped protectively in front of her, glaring at Conor.
Winston’s eyes flashed with anger. “I’ll keep this from the boss.
We’ll cooperate, okay?”
“Winston!”
“Conor.”
Hannah’s voice of surprise resonated alongside Remington’s.
Lowering his gun, Conor’s lips curled into a smile. “Excellent. We can work together peacefully then.”
