"Oh, not many people can remain calm after hearing 30 million."Spencer added, "After all, this deal alone is enough to keep a security firm running for a year, right?"Zander said calmly, "I guess, but it's not enough for Mr. Lennon.""Really?" Hearing this, Spencer could not help but chuckle. "You're quite greedy, Mr. Lennon."Let me get straight to the point. What we want to commission this time is a 300-million-dollar gemstone, Heart of the Firefly. I need you to transport the Heart of the Firefly to a wealthy merchant in Daylight City."Sean nodded."Mr. Lennon, as you know, 300 million is a lot of money, which is why I paid such a high price."If I have some special terms, I suppose you'll accept them, won't you?"Sean narrowed his eyes. "You don't trust me?""Isn't that obvious? Your security company's new. I came here to test the waters, but your performance pleased me. That's why you may get the job.""Your terms seem troublesome."Spencer chuckled and explained to
The three captains looked at Sean together, smiling sheepishly."We've done some outrageous things to Mr. Lennon in the past and never had a chance to make amends. We're just going to give today's spot to him.""Hey, what a nice thing to say. We all know you're doomed when you make an enemy of Mr. Lennon. I don't want to get beat up by Mr. Lennon because of the competition.""Indeed, I feel a chill down my back when I recall what happened last time."Recalling how they had misunderstood Sean for poisoning Theodore and went to Sean to settle accounts but were beaten up, the man could not help but shiver."Well... Alright." Spencer nodded stiffly.He finally understood why Sean had said such things when he visited him in the morning.Unexpectedly, the other three teams withdrew as soon as Sean got there.Not many people were that intimidating.Spencer muttered, "That leaves only one team then. Are they not here yet?"As he spoke, about 50 people headed this way.Their leader s
The man staggered up from the ground and looked at Sean in disbelief."What just happened? Why was I suddenly on the ground?""You lost," Sean said."I lost?" The man said in confusion and waved his hand, "Impossible! How can I lose when I haven't done anything? Are you kidding me?""I'll give you another chance. Attack me first this time."Hearing this, the man was instantly motivated and stared closely at Sean's body as if he wanted to see through Sean.His heart was beating wildly.He got knocked down before he knew it. How humiliating!Since he had a chance to fight again, he could not take it lightly.He must defeat Sean as soon as possible to erase his humiliation earlier.Otherwise, he would become a laughingstock!With that in mind, the man gathered all his strength.With a yell, the man charged at Sean with all his might.However, his punches were like marshmallows to Sean.Sean only casually reached out and grabbed him on both shoulders with precision.At the s
Everyone rubbed their hands in anticipation.The man yelled, "Get ready! Show our opponents what we're made of."You're my elites. Don't lose and embarrass me."The competition officially began as he spoke excitedly.The man glanced nervously at Sean.This round was important to regain some face.However, things did not go as smoothly as he had expected.Sean's opponents were already in a rather disadvantageous position at the beginning of the fight.The people facing Sean were defenseless.The Brown brothers alone had taken down over 20 people.It was only in the first 20 seconds.Witnessing that himself, the man was dumbfounded.The rest of his men did not fare much better either.Sean's men took down each of his men with one punch.The competition lasted 39 seconds.None of Sean's men was hurt, and everyone at the man's side lay on the ground, grunting.The man was stunned to witness that.He looked on blankly, unable to believe his eyes."W-What's this all about?
Kendra fidgeted as she sat under a tree outside Folklore Apartment on Apricot Street.Three men wearing shades walked toward Kendra.Kendra's heart sank, and she instinctively remembered the three men who had robbed her on their motorcycles earlier.She got up and tried to run away.However, it was too late. The three men had surrounded her."W-What are you doing?" Kendra stammered to the three men."Nothing." The leader wearing shades handed Kendra a bank card."What's the meaning of this?""We were sent here. There's 200 thousand in the card. There's only one thing you need to do.""Did that rich woman send you to make me break up with Mr. Lennon?"The man nodded."You misunderstood. Mr. Lennon and I don't have that kind of relationship. We're only..."Kendra wanted to explain what happened, but the man did not give her a chance to do so.The man violently threw the bank card in Kendra's face, making a soft thud."Woman, don't be stupid."Are you arguing that you're no
Another man exclaimed, "Hehe, in this era, being beautiful is advantageous. Isn't it normal to make money with your looks?"But this has nothing to do with us. This woman isn't loyal. I didn't expect that we wouldn't need to do anything with the task the businesswoman had entrusted us with. We only need to get the message back and get our payment."With that said, the three men turned to leave."Zander," Sean called."Alright." Zander stopped the three men in their path."What are you doing?"Zander chuckled indignantly. "I can't believe you. You guys like to pretend that nothing happened and want to leave after bullying someone? Don't even think about it."The leader in shades snorted coldly. "So you want to make a scene? We've never been afraid of anyone when it comes to fighting."A man nearby adjusted his body into a fighting stance. "We don't want to fight with you, but you asked for it."In that case, we wouldn't mind having some fun with you."As soon as he said that,
He briefly explained what had happened at the clothing store."Hmph. This guy is good at pretending. The more I look at him, the more annoyed I become."The gangsters gathered around him sniggered."Mr. Terrence, do you want us to teach him a lesson for you?"Leave it to us. Just find a corner and watch. We guarantee that we'll make you feel better."Hearing this, the man in a suit chuckled."Good idea. I'll leave it to you then."I'll give each of you 30 thousand dollars."The gangsters got excited immediately."Mr. Terrence's so generous!""Yeah, let's give Mr. Terrence a good show.""Come on, boys!"The gangsters headed in Sean's direction.Sean frowned slightly as he saw the crowd of malicious men.Zander, who had just gotten into the car, got out and stared at the gangsters in frustration."What do you want?"The gangsters broke into hostile smiles."What do we want? We want to teach you a good lesson, of course.""I don't remember having anything to do with you
"These useless bastards. They had the nerve to brag so much just now."Aren't they ashamed? Instead of beating that guy up, they got beaten to a pulp instead. Are they there to be funny?"Once he said that, the man in a suit noticed Sean walking this way.His heart sank as he wondered if Sean had noticed him.'It shouldn't be. Those gangsters didn't expose me,' the man in the suit thought.Feeling a little guilty, the man in a suit quickly picked up the menu to cover his face and pretended to look at the menu.However, Sean already sat in front of his table.He tapped his fingers a few times on the table, making the man in a suit's heart tense."Why pretend?" Sean spoke.The man in a suit felt a thump in his heart and spoke with a trill."Bro, I don't quite understand what you're saying."As soon as he said that, Sean snatched the menu the man in a suit was holding.Sean locked eyes with the man in a suit and smiled at him."I remember you. We met at the clothing store ear
