Harman and the others continued. “You are not the one who did it, why must we hold on to the deal?” “You should be grateful that we didn’t dissolve Team Five!” “Yeah. Deduct our salary? Know your place!” The group of executives was furious when Andrius mentioned the salary deduction, and some of them even gave Andrius the side eye. “Enough!” Luna stopped the executives with a serious look. She said coldly, “All of you are the seniors of the company. I expect all of you to keep your promises. You lost, and that’s a fact. I will tell Finance to deduct your salary accordingly, and no one is to mention dissolving Team Five!” She had run the company for a long time now. She still had the power to contain the executives with her words whenever she got angry. The executives were silenced, and no one dared to continue the topic. Half a year’s salary was not too much to be considered significant, but not that minute that they could ignore it either. Fortunately, there was stil
Andrius shook his head and sighed. “The soldiers fought with their lives on the battlefield, and the business tycoons in the city enjoy an extravagant life. “Back in the warring days, if the rich of the country could financially support the military, we wouldn’t have gone to war for so long and sacrificed that many people…” Lives were lost during the war. Families were broken, and fathers and husbands were robbed from their children and wives. “Hehe.” Noir finished another pint of beer. He scoffed and said, “Euphemistically speaking, the rich people are here to make the economy thrive; in real terms, they are just blood-sucking leeches plundering and oppressing the weak. Most of them grew in size through illegal means, and only then did they switch to the good sides.” He got so angry in the end that he did not want to continue the topic. “Andy, what should I do with the money?” “Give it to Sonia.” Andrius pondered for a moment and added, “Tell her to donate the money to the
“Uh…” The receptionist’s heart skipped a beat as he said worriedly, “Mr. Jones, are you really sure? If someone finds out, we will be done for…” Despite his hesitation, his actions proved otherwise. He gulped excitedly when he heard of the amount. No one disliked money. He could not just give up on the massive amount of money because of honor and ideals. “Pfft!” Samson knocked on his head and bellowed, “Stop saying stupid sh*t. Are you asking for a beating? I am in charge of all the donations of the Martyr’s Society. As long as we make the accounts look good and falsify the numbers, no one will notice anything!” The society received a ten-billion donation the other time, and he had secretly embezzled one billion for himself. It was his first time back then. He did not have the skills nor the nerves to embezzle a larger amount of money. However, the one billion gave him a taste of success. He spent the money on nine supermodels in just three days and had the best time of h
Angel’s eyes were overflowing with grievance and anger. “We drove here, but those foreigners were drunk, and they hit Frank’s car. “We tried to reason with them, but they were rude and arrogant, and they didn't want to talk. They have the numbers so they, they…” “I got it,” Andrius said. He then turned around to the foreigners with a frosty glare. He was mad. The soldiers had fought with their lives to protect the people and the country, but these foreigners bullied them on their own turf. He would be the one to deal with these ignorant fools. “You people…” Andrius squinted as he said coldly, “Why did you people drink and drive? Why did you people hit my colleagues? Why did you break the laws of Florence?” “Tsk…” The leader of the foreigners, a blonde man, said frivolously, “I’m not a Florencian, so your laws don’t work on me. Now that you are here, you should pay us for our damaged car.” The blonde man grinned and continued arrogantly, “Call me ‘Daddy’ three times and I wi
“Ugh!” As a wealthy second generation, Louis had never been treated like this before. He tried to get up to vomit, but Andrius stomped on the back of his head, pushing him deeper into the pile of hot cakes. With that, the pile of hot cakes was shoved into Louis’ mouth. “Don’t just eat it, drink some soup.” Andrius then stepped on the handle, flushing the toilet. The water flushed into his mouth and pushed the entire pile into his mouth. The taste knocked Louis out cold. Andrius left him in the stall when he went out and brought Fatty Frank to the hospital. “Boss, can we not go to the hospital?” Fatty Frank recovered after some rest. He spoke in a muffled voice due to the bruises and swells on his face. “What’s wrong?” “I don’t want my family to know. And I don’t want Harman and the other executives to give us a hard time,” Fatty Frank said timidly. “Fine.” Andrius pondered. He then brought the group to Dr. Artemis’ clinic. Dr. Artemis and Lyra came out to help F
“Mm-hmm.” After he left the office, Andrius took the electric bike to Dr. Artemis’ clinic. However, when he arrived, he saw nothing but a mess in the clinic. The tables, chairs, and racks were wrecked. Dr. Artemis, Lyra, Fatty Frank, Angel, and the other members of Team Five were nowhere to be found. Andrius had a bad feeling about this. He then spotted a line of crooked words on the table that were written using blood. It still had not dried up completely. “Punk, if you want to save them, come to the abandoned factory in the western suburbs. Don’t be late!” Andrius’ expression turned grim. He had given Louis a little punishment last night, but the b*stard went after Fatty Frank and the others. Even Dr. Artemis and Lyra were caught in the conflict. He quickly hopped onto his electric bike and headed to the location. In an abandoned factory in the western suburbs, Fatty Frank, Angel, and the others from Team Five were all tied up on chairs; Dr. Artemis was also bound.
“Andy!” “Boss!” “Boss!” Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Andrius. The thugs reacted strongly to Andrius’ deafening entrance. The expressions on their faces went through multiple changes. From a vicious look to a blank look, then a mortified one, they all happened within half a second. The thugs used to work for Jamire Ringstone. They knew there was someone in Sumeria who could erase them from existence with ease, someone that they could not afford to offend. Now, that particular someone appeared before them. The thugs were sweating profusely, and their legs turned weak due to fear. They wanted to kneel and beg for their lives. When Andrius appeared, Louis somehow felt the bitter taste of sh*t in his mouth and his stomach started to hurt. A disgust rose from his heart as it reminded what he was forced to eat last night. Louis was furious. He roared at Andrius, “You punk! You really showed up alone? Go to hell! Get him! Beat him up, kill him, and I promi
“Yes! Yes! We will get out right now!” “Thank you for sparing our lives!” “We will disappear immediately!” “Thank you, Master Moonshade!” The thugs crawled out hurriedly after escaping death. Only Louis and his foreign friends were left in the abandoned factory. “It’s your turn now,” Andrius said coldly as he walked over to Louis. “D-don’t come near me! Stay there!” Andrius’ frosty gaze sent chills down Louis’s spine and made his skull numb. It was as though he was being stared at by a vicious beast. Andrius ignored the man and continued walking over. He was not striding but was walking at a steady pace. Louis freaked out. His lips shivered as he stammered, “M-my father is the chairman of Simon-Tooke! He’s Dean Mitchell! You cannot hurt me!” The only thing he could rely on was his father’s reputation, hoping that it would deter Andrius. Unbeknownst to him, he might have still been okay if he left his father’s name out of this. When he mentioned his father’s name
