Andrius would have crushed the Hanshus if they were at the border, yet the Hanshus still sought revenge after what they did to Randal. They would not dare. “Of course, of course.” Noir chuckled. He said frivolously, “Andy, you don’t even need to do anything. I can just deal with them out of convenience." After all, he rose to become the captain of the Shadow Wolves because of his kill count. While they were chatting, Andrius’ phone rang. It was Fatty Frank. “Boss! Something has happened! Come back to the office now!” Fatty Frank sounded anxious. Andrius frowned. He returned to the office, but Fatty Frank was not there, so he went to Luna’s office. “Team Five can’t do anything well. They can’t bear the responsibility.” “We gave them a simple assignment, and they screwed it up. I think we should dissolve the entire department.” “Yeah. Why are we feeding a bunch of good-for-nothing kids?” Andrius was outside the office, and he heard the other executives criticizing Te
“What is it?” Luna asked eagerly“You can actually buy our reserved machines. You should know that we usually have reserved units for large machinery, but those are not for sale. Since you are eager to use them, I can consider selling them to you.” Houser sounded sincere as if he was trying to help Luna solve her problem. Reserved units? Luna had no other options left, so she asked, “How much are the reserved units?” “50 million,” Houser named the price indifferently. “50 million?!” Luna’s eyes widened, and her lips twitched when she heard the price. That was an arm and a leg! The price that Fatty Frank had gotten earlier in the day was the regular price, which was only ten million. However, Houser asked for 50 million for his reserved units. That was five times more expensive than the original price! It was not just double; it was quintuple! He raised the price because she needed it, and it was over-demanding! “What do you say, Ms. Crestfall?” Houser sounded cheer
“Cheers, Houser!” Solomon raised his glass and finished it to the last drop. Houser finished his glass of liquor as well. He chuckled and said, “Solomon, we have known each other for so long. It’s nothing.” The two laughed and chatted. They were not in the same industry, so there was no competition between them. As a matter of fact, the two of them frequently asked each other for private favors to ruin their competitors, hence their close relationship. After a few glasses and a few dishes, the lively atmosphere reached a cordial climax. Solomon put his hand on Houser’s shoulder, and with narrowed eyes glittering with cunningness, he said, “Houser, Luna Crestfall searched the entire city today and didn’t find the machines she needed. I think she will look for you again tomorrow.” Houser was surprised. “What should I do then?” “It’s simple.” Solomon’s lips curled like a sly fox. “You can pretend to negotiate the price with her and then agree to her price. You have to make i
Without saying a word, Andrius grabbed the contract from the desk and tore it into pieces. A huge sale was just torn away in front of Houser’s face, naturally upsetting him. He bellowed, “Ms. Crestfall, what is the meaning of this? I came here to offer you a discounted price on my reserved unit and even delivered the contract here myself, yet your man just tore the contract in front of my face?” Then, he curled his lips into a nasty grin. “I have to increase the price if you want another copy.” Houser was certain that he seized Luna’s weak point. He believed that she would not dare to argue with him, hence his confidence. Luna was furious as well. She had no other choice but to negotiate with Houser to lower the price to 35 million, yet Andrius ruined it in front of her. Her beautiful face was shrouded with anger. “Andrius, what are you doing? Are you trying to give me a heart attack?” Andrius expected her reaction. He placed another contract in front of her and said, “A mo
Solomon would never let the machines reach the Valiant Institute’s construction site. He tossed the cigarette away and made a call. “Lewis, I need a favor.” Ever since he had a fallout with Jamire, he found another gang leader named Baldy Lewis to do his shady bidding. Baldy Lewis was near the port, and he would be able to intercept the delivery. “What is it?” “A new batch of machines is being delivered to the port. I want you and your men to sabotage the machines, all of them. They are being sent to New Moon Corporation’s construction site, a small company with no support. I can give you 10 million for this job.” Luna did not mention that the order invoice was from the military factory, so Houser had no idea where it came from, let alone Solomon. Therefore, he did not hold back on the sabotage. 10 million was enough to move Baldy Lewis. He nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll take the job.” The call ended. Solomon breathed a sigh of relief. Baldy Lewis was much more rut
Fatty Frank and the security guards arrived at the port. They then escorted the machines out. Behind his car were a dozen heavy-duty trucks. The cargo they carried was tied and wrapped properly, thus no one could see what they were carrying. The cargo the heavy-duty trucks carried were the machines that New Moon Corporation needed to start the project. For insurance purposes, Andrius was also with the team. He was Fatty Frank’s mental support. Fatty Frank was fully prepared for this assignment as well. After all, he did not want to make another terrible mistake. He would be embarrassed if he continued to make mistakes, and it would be better for him to give up on himself. Swoosh! Halfway through the delivery, the motorcade entered a secluded spot, and then a large number of men jumped out from both sides, stopping and surrounding all the cars and trucks. They were armed with knives, baseball bats, and machetes. Some even had guns. They were all Baldy Lewis’ men. After h
Baldy Lewis was upset. Right when he was about to voice his threats further, he had a glimpse of inside the truck. What he saw scared him to the point that he fell on his backside and even wet his pants. Inside the truck were fully armed soldiers, pointing their guns at Baldy Lewis and his men. All the soldiers were waiting for a single order to shoot Baldy Lewis and his men to death. Baldy Lewis and his men were horrified. They had been the gangsters around the area, bullying and oppressing the unlucky ones who trespassed their turf, but when they faced the fully armed elite soldiers, they were like mice running into a cat. They were so horrified that they could not even think properly. Their expression turned bitter, and they swallowed in fear, but their throats were extremely dry to the extent that it hurt when they moved their throat muscles. Baldy Lewis’ stomach hurt. If he had listened to Jamire, he would not have to face these soldiers. It was all Solomon’s fault
Andrius had spoken many famous quotes back at the Western Frontline. One of them would be ‘never lose an inch of land, never leave a man behind.’ He had said that when Severus was surrounded by a thousand enemy soldiers while having run out of ammo. Severus had been in a desperate situation, and he and his team had already given up. It was Andrius who had stepped up and volunteered to retrieve his brother-in-arms. He led the charge into the enemy and saved Severus, bringing him and his team back to the base safely. He then taught Severus martial arts and the tactics of war with reservations. To Severus, Andrius was like a God or a parent, someone whom he would serve for his entire life and pledge his loyalty to. When he finally saw Andrius after a while, he could not hold back his excitement. “Get up first, Severus.” Andrius clearly remembered when he left the Western Frontline, Severus was serving at an important mountain pass, in charge of defense. He asked, “Why aren
