Chapter 599 - Bloodroot Clan

President Martin believes that the Paz Family will not use this connection yet. He has insider information that they will use their connections to advance their position in the government.

President Martin already has someone in mind that the Paz family will use to get his daughter.

The Paz family has a deep relationship with the Bloodroot Clan. It is a mafia terrorist type that originated in the Province of Foxglove. Their core activity is protection racketeering whereby they provide protection to the businesses or other groups through violence outside the sanction of the law.

Although some prefer to hire a private army from the Twelve Army, some would still secretly hire protection from this group.

The Paz family started to develop a close relationship with Novus Rex years ago but with Alex Ogden, they are someone that the Paz Family cannot manipulate, unlike the Bloodroot Clan. The Clan provides protection to the family and in return, the Paz Family also protects them.

"The Bloodroot Clan has been targetting us for a couple of decades now but they didn't do it for their own benefits. Of course, there were still some group and people that hire them to come after us but they never succeed." President Martin revealed. Although the Society remained untouched they cannot deny the fact that Bloodroot Clan is a threat to them.

Especially now that the Clan is not only inclined to traditional physical security but also to computer security. Professor Iris Parham has a separate group of highly skilled computer specialist that deals with the Bloodroot Clan.

"I think they will use this opportunity to boost their morale." President Martin continued talking about how they were able to defy every attempt of the Bloodroot Clan to destroy them. Because their every failed attempt to do so will keep their name tainted.

Jacob's gaze turned murderous when the name of that group was brought up. "I finally find an opportunity to deal with this stinking group."

Aside from The Robin Hood Society, The Twelve Army also has a personal grudge with the Bloodroot Clan because they are taking some of their clients. Although the Twelve Army is a very reputable company that provides private army services, they do not indulge or initiate a war against another business or group that their client has a grudge with. Their main purpose is to defend and not to offend which the Bloodroot Clan is doing.

That is why some of the business, group or personality especially those in the underground sector would still hire a group from the Bloodroot Clan to inflict harm towards others which the Twelve Army will never do.

Initially, Jacob just let this group do their own ways as long as they never go against the Twelve Army. Although he really wants to have his way to them that is just not practical and a waste of resources.

But now, they are asking for it. They didn't just go against the Twelve Army, they are after his most precious and beloved wife. That's just not going to happen. They are asking to perish.

Jacob will not bat an eyelid in dealing with the Paz Family and Bloodroot Clan at the same time.

"I don't get it. Why did the Senator hire assassins from Alex Ogden if she already has the Bloodroot Clan?" Felix voiced out his concern because he thought that with a group as vicious as Bloodroot Clan, why would the Senator need assassins from Alex?

"She is testing the waters," Daniel who was in deep thought said.

"Huh?" Felix was flustered.

"They wanted to know who's side Alex Ogden is," Arthur explained it to him.

As a man who operates an organized crime group and a group of contract killers, Senator Rizza would want to not just get into his pants but also his support. She has the military and the Bloodroot Clan backing her up and she also wants Novus Rex.

She was actually overwhelmed when Alex let her hire his men to assassinate the heiress of the Robin Hood Society which means, he hasn't established a certain connection with the Robin Hood Society or the Twelve Army.

But what she didn't know is that Alex Ogden doesn't need a connection just to protect the heiress of the Society. He is a man that doesn't need any connections. His capabilities are enough for him to stand on his own.

"Oh, I get it." Felix didn't expect that one day, he will be thankful that Alex Ogden has that kind of affection towards their heiress. But he didn't voice it out or he will be shot dead on the spot in that instant.

Jacob is a hubristic person, and he had every reason to be. His resources and capability are enough to protect his precious wife without Novus Rex's protection. As much as possible, he doesn't want to be in debt to Alex Ogden's affection.
