Chapter 2806 The promise of money, no matter how unsavory its origins, holds a certain allure that few can resist. The moment Regina shouted her offer, Domingo’s men began to waver. Fear of death is a powerful motivator, isn’t it? Domingo’s face drained of color as he watched the betrayal unfold. “What the hell are you doing? We've been brothers in arms for years. Are you really going to stabin the back now? Haven't | been good to you all? We've always shared the spoils. I'm so damn disappointed in you guys!” His plea was heartfelt. For just a little dirty money, his loyalty was questioned, his men ready to turn on him, stabbing right through his heart.

What good was having piles of cash if it was all tainted? “Think about your families, guys. You've got wives, kids. Don’t you want to think about them? Do you really want your children to never see you proudly at a school open house?” A mix of logic and emotion could be persuasive, especially as Nolan's fists did the talking, causing more and more of Domingo’s crew to second-guess their allegiances. Seven pretended to be down for the count, stepping aside as if already beaten.

With a solid punch to the jaw, Domingo let out a howl that made Regina cover her ears.
“My teeth-” Domingo tried to fight back, but Nolan was young and built like a linebacker. No way Domingo was a match for him.
Another brutal kick to the back of Domingo’s knee brought him to the ground, kneeling before Nolan.

“Mr. Harris, what exactly do you want from us? Let Mr. Skinner go, will ya? He just got sbad intel, that’s why he cafter you guys.” Domingo roared. “Since when did you becsuch a spineless rat? I'd rather die than snitch!” But before he could finish his sentence, Nolan landed another punch on his back, leaving Domingo collapsed on the ground with a groan.
“You've got good sense, seeing the situation for what it is,” Nolan said. “A smart man would choose the right path.” Regina ran to Nolan's side, completely taken aback by how quickly the tables had turned. She looked up at Nolan with eyes full of admiration, shining brightly. She was about to sing his praises, but the situation was too tense for compliments.
“Yeah, yeah, you bet,” one of the men hurried to say. “We'll spill everything you want to know, Mr. Harris. Just ask, and we'll tell it all.” Nolan nodded. “Alright then, ask away.” Regina, pointing to herself, was in disbelief. “Me?” 2/2
