“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
Then, Andrius flicked his finger. Several silver needles, as thin as a strand of hair, shot toward Louis’s body. Louis had a bad feeling about this. He instinctively asked, “W-what did you do to me?” “You will soon find out.” Andrius smiled meaningfully. “Aaaaaargh!” At the next moment, Louis screamed excruciatingly. He felt a terrible itch all over his body, and it was not on his skin. It came from his organs! The deepest part of his body! It felt like he was being bitten by ten thousand ants inside. “Aaaaaaargh!” Louis tried to scratch himself, but there was no way he could reach inside his body. He twirled and tossed on the ground. His friends were horrified and were at a loss for words and actions. Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Suddenly, Louis started to knock his head on the wall as if it would cure the itch in his body. Each knock was stronger and harder than the previous. His head bled profusely and soon, he slowed down as his eyes lost focus. His body slowly
Meanwhile at Dr. Artemis’ clinic, Andrius was bandaging Fatty Frank and the others. There was no way the members of Team Five would miss this chase to flatter him. “Boss, you are amazing! Every word you say just now held so much power!” “I think you are freaking awesome! The G.O.A.T.!” “I don’t think words can express how freaking amazing you are!” “Enough.” Andrius was fed up with the flattery. He raised his hand and stopped them from continuing. “Just stay here and concentrate on recovering. Call me if there’s anything.” Then, Andrius’ phone buzzed in his pocket. He pulled it out and saw Noir’s name on the caller ID.“Andy, Ms. Timberland is organizing a little meet-and-greet with the deceased soldiers’ families. She hopes that you can attend it. Do you have time?” He would not miss it for the world! Andrius said without a second thought, “Where is it? I’ll be right there.” Noir provided him with the address. Andrius then chatted with Fatty Frank and the others f
The old man looked up in disbelief and cried, “No! I don’t believe you! There’s no way my son would have been a deserter!” “He was a traitor if I say so!” Owen then kicked the old man away and wanted to leave. When Andrius, Noir, and Sonia came in, they saw Owen kicking the old man away which infuriated them. Andrius’ heart bled terribly. The soldiers gave their lives on the battlefield, yet their families were being treated poorly. Aside from not getting the compensation, the man called the deceased soldier a deserter. It was an atrocious act! Horrifying! On a smaller scale, it was just a million in compensation. On a larger scale, it was a grave betrayal of the soldiers, tantamount to digging one’s grave! Bang! Noir could not bear the atrocity the man committed. He ran over with a strong kick, sending Owen seven to eight meters away before the latter crashed to the ground. Owen was instantly crippled and failed to get up on his feet. “Sir, how are you?” Andrius
Andrius felt relieved. He said to Norman, “Mr. Houser, don’t worry. I will find out what is going on and I will give you a satisfying answer.” “Thank you. Thank you so much.” Norman held Andrius’ hands tightly, expressing his gratitude. It seemed like he started to treat them differently. After a little chat, Andrius and Sonia headed to the Martyr’s Society while Noir stayed behind. …“Ms. Timberland!” At the Martyr’s Society, the same receptionist welcomed her. However, when he saw Sonia, a hint of guilt flashed on his face though it was swiftly concealed. Andrius and Sonia were not just anyone; they were able to spot the guilt on the receptionist’s face. They entered the parlor. The deputy chairman, Samson, quickly came down to meet them. “Deputy Chairman Jones.” Sonia was expressionless as she skipped to the point, saying, “I made an eight-billion donation the other day. I want to know how the society is planning to use it and whether it has been utilized.” Sams
“Confidential, my *ss!”Andrius could not stand it anymore and kicked Samson. Samson crashed and knocked into a whole bunch of things before finally landing on the ground with a wail.Andrius ignored him and turned on the computer.Soon, he saw the transaction records, one of which was four billion that had been transferred to a secret account.“Samson Jones!” Andrius instantly lost his temper. Endless flames of anger flared in his eyes, burning wildly. “What do you have to say for yourself now?”“You... I...”Samson glared at the two people and suddenly had a bold idea in his heart.Plus the one billion from before, it added up to five billion in total. Furthermore, there were also various other unethical things. It was enough for him to lose his head.Thus, he simply threw caution to the wind.Silence them!“Where are the guards?”Armed soldiers rushed in immediately following Samson’s sudden shout.He pointed to Andrius and Sonia, a ruthless look flashing in his eyes. “T
Sonia forced a smile and said, “The temptation of huge amounts of money is a fatal one. Mr. Samson really is incorrigible.“Yes, yes, yes.” Cloud promised, “However, that’s in the past. Now that I’m in charge, I naturally won’t let this kind of thing happen again. I can’t disappoint entrepreneurs like yourself, Ms. Timberland, and enterprises like Celestial Enterprise!”“Don’t worry, Ms. Timberland. I’ll try my best to recover the four billion, and I’ll spend all the eight billion of the donations on the families of our martyrs.“Then, in the name of the Martyrs’ Society, I shall publicly thank Celestial Enterprise for its generosity so as to maintain transparency.”Andrius was relieved when he heard Cloud’s reassurance.Cloud executed Samson, proving that he was very decisive and did not drag his feet. He also promised to recover the four billion and affirmed Sonia and Celestial Enterprise’s contributions. That was a rare and valuable trait.After some pleasantries, Andrius and
