Even though Ellison had lost his hands, John wasn't done with him. He turned to Richard and ordered, "Take him to Stone Road. I want you to interrogate him till he tells you who was behind this."
"Yes, Mr. Shi." After that, Richard took Ellison to the Shi family and asked the doctor to patch up his wrists. Richard had already started planning the torture and interrogation that was to follow.
Everyone else returned to the North Yard.
On their way back to the North Yard, Henry asked James about the man who took Ellison down so effortlessly. After John gave his nod of approval, James told him the identity of Richard and his status in the Shi family.
The Shi family was one of the three most powerful families in Lexingport City. Not only was it greatly admired, it was feared. Those who were in high positions naturally had more enemies and dangers, so they needed people to protect them.
Sam's generation had trained bodyguards to protect the Shi family for a while now. The guards lived in Shi family house on Stone Road and protected the family on a daily basis, There were currently two hundred guards in total and they were usually split into five groups. There was a group for Sam and each of his four children. Richard was the head of is subordinates.
"Henry." Lisa felt a little nervous. Was she wrong? But Henry said the clothes were for John's wife.
John nodded slightly and glanced at Henry. What was Henry doing?
"You told her to prepare clothes for Mrs. Shi?"
"Yes." Henry also felt nervous. Was he wrong to call Nina that? John didn't object to Helen calling her Mrs. Shi after all.
Lisa's forehead broke into a cold sweat, but she still maintained her calmness as a shop manager."Is there something wrong with that?"
"No." He actually really liked everyone referring to Nina like that
One could almost feel the tension of the room ease up.
Hearing John say that there was no problem, Lisa and Henry looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
"You two really know how to please me. Your salary will be doubled from tomorrow on."
"Thank you so much, sir! Please extend my appreciation to Mrs. Shi as well." Lisa couldn't believe the emotional roller-coaster she was going through.
Henry smiled for only a moment. He didn't mean to flatter John. He was just telling the truth. He never expected that the title "Mrs. Shi" would double his salary.
Why did he call Nina Mrs. Shi from the very beginning?
Henry shook his head and regretted it.
