"Miss Katherina sure is straightforward. I'll be honest then. I hope Miss Katherina can surrender her gang to us. Don't worry; I guarantee that your position in the Vermilion gang will not be lower than mine. After all, miss Katherina is a powerful origin master. Of course, it's the same for your sisters and brother."
''That is no way in hell that is happening.'' Stella refused immediately, making Rufus chuckle.
''Well, I knew you'd say that but have you forgotten that your brother's life is in my hands? Do you think either of you can rescue him before I kill him?" Rufus threatened while putting pressure on his leg, squeezing Katherina's biological brother's face against the ground; the latter ground his teeth, trying not to make a sound.
Seeing this, Stella's expression darkened.
"Despicable!"
"Thanks for the compliment. I'm a gang member; what do you expect?" Rufus said to Stella before shifting his gaze onto Katherina.
