“78% share...” Jack glared when he heard what Shawn said. That amount of shares certainly made Shawn the authority at the shareholders' meeting.Jack glanced at Mr. Aaron. The man glared and his chin dropped. He couldn't say anything. His lips were trembling.Tuck even forgot to take a breath. He forgot about the pain in his hand. He glanced at Jack. “Jack...”The call brought Jack to his senses. Right now Jack was in a big quandary. Shawn already had far more strength and power than he did. Standing in front of him haughtily was not the best choice.Mr. Aaron slowly backed away. “No way... I've done everything to build Keaton Corp! You have no brains to say that to me!”Mr. Aaron's face turned very red. He spoke harsh words while pointing at Shawn. Then the atmosphere became silent for a moment. Shawn just stood quietly while seeing how the fat man would respond.Mr. Aaron turned to Jack and Tuck. “Jack! Tuck! Make yourselves useful! Help me!”Mr. Aaron glared at them. He said it lou
“You are indeed reckless, Young Master.” Alex let out a long breath. He looked at Shawn with slightly droopy eyes. He was quite exhausted after five days of being pushed by Shawn with some unexpected schedules in Veldamara. “You abandoned this case before the trial started. Are you really serious about handling Mr. Aaron's case?” Shawn nodded his head. He didn't want his trip home to be interrupted by the matter. Of course this made Alex feel surprised. Even though it was Shawn who made the report about Mr. Aaron's crime, but Shawn left him after he was arrested by the police and provided evidence. What good would it do if Mr. Aaron was caught if there was no one to testify at the trial?Alex furrowed his brows. “Mr. Shawn, you're going to do things halfway like this? It's not good for you.”Shawn glanced over. “Oh, did you think I would let Mr. Aaron off the hook, Alex?”Alex nodded. “I was worried that you would abandon something you started, Young Master.”Shawn smiled a little.
Shawn opened his eyes wide. He glanced at his phone. The news had left him in disbelief. “Rachel gave birth?”Alex turned around in shock. He couldn't believe he was hearing something like that at such a crucial time. In a tense moment like this, suddenly there was good news sticking out. It looked like this was going to be serious.Shawn caught his breath. “Where is she? Who is this?”The person on the other end of the line sensed Shawn's tension. “I'm Esther, one of Mrs. Rachel's servants. Mrs. Rachel is now at the hospital--”Shawn opened his eyes to look ahead. He saw that the person wearing the black bennie was pointing at him and glaring at him. Shawn needed to hide his current situation, so that Rachel would not worry. “I'm on my way home on the plane. Stay strong, Rachel. I'll catch up--”As soon as Shawn said that, his cell phone was grabbed by one of the men with a gun. He immediately slammed the phone into pieces.Then he pointed his uzi at Shawn, making him raise his hand.
“I chose the second option.” Shawn said softly.[Option 2 chosen!][Use your negotiation skills to survive!][Reward if you succeed: $???]Shawn glanced at the reward section. Again, Shawn would get an unknown prize. However, the prize was definitely money.Shawn thought that there must be certain variables that would determine how much money he would get. This required Shawn to perform the mission very carefully.Shawn's attention was drawn to Alex because of the long breath Alex exhaled. Alex tasted his saliva. “Young Master, you've been watching these perpetrators calmly. You're not planning anything stupid, are you?”Shawn didn't answer immediately. Instead, he changed the direction of his gaze to the perpetrators one by one. “You're too late to stop me, Alex. Whatever I'm going to do later, don't panic. It would be better if you also pretended not to recognize me at all.”Alex wrinkled his forehead. “Young Master, are you really going to do something?”Shawn hissed through his mo
“You...” the masked man glared at Alex. He had never met anyone who wasn't afraid of his weapon. However, Alex was boldly defiant.When the man tried to move the gun away from Alex's forehead, Alex held it back to keep it away from his forehead. “Oh... you're not going to do that. You may perforate my head, an innocent man. However, when you do that, take my young master to safety. Do you understand, young man?”The person wearing the bennie furrowed his brows when he saw the person pointing the gun at Alex. “Harry! What are you doing?”Harry swallowed. “Captain Jordan! This guy won't comply!”Harry jerked the gun away from Alex's head. However, Alex was still holding the gun against his forehead. “Oh, young man. Why are you turning your weapon in the other direction. Your target is right here. Kill me and save Young Master. Do it quickly!”Harry didn't know what had happened to this old man. I don't know what kind of power he had, but he managed to make him tremble. The courage of a
Jordan glanced over while narrowing her eyes. His brain kept wondering who Shawn really was. “It's impossible for an ordinary person to have this much power. His abilities are beyond reason. What's more, he was able to figure out that we were military soldiers. I'm sure he must be someone from the special forces.”Jordan smiled slightly. “Great... you were able to figure us out. You even tried to make a negotiation. Is it really a negotiation when the end of a gun barrel is pressed against my face?”Shawn tilted his head. He looked at Jordan's four friends who were pointing guns from a distance. “Same to you, your men are also pointing those Uzis at me.”Shawn looked into Jordan's eyes from the side again. "My hunch is that my body will have a lot of holes if I keep this gun away from your face." Jordan nodded lightly. "Well then, who are you? Not many people get to know who we really are. Are you someone from the special forces?" Shawn narrowed his eyes. Apparently Jordan didn't take
Jordan was silent. He looked at his colleagues. His colleagues frowned.Shawn took a deep breath. Shawn then dropped the uzi gun. "Now it's your choice, Jordan. Are you going to keep scaring them with guns and bombs that are probably fake, or do it my way. Where you, your comrades, and the fallen can get their due?"Jordan was silent for a moment. Then he turned to his comrades. "Everyone! Gather weapons now! We will land according to this ship's schedule."Hearing that, Harry immediately approached while glaring at Jordan. "Captain! We can't do that! Look at all this, we've come this far, are you going to let it go to waste?"Jordan shook his head. "Harry, just follow my orders. Gather the weapons here."Harry couldn't accept the decision given by Jordan. He immediately pointed the gun at Shawn's face. "Is this because of her influence? She's trying to manipulate you, Captain!"Shawn, who saw the gun to his head, wasn't afraid of being pointed at like that. Although Shawn didn't know
News spread quickly. The world immediately knew how rotten the Veldamara government was. They condemned the Veldamara government for not providing welfare to the families of the war victims. In fact, they also monopolized all the resources to produce oil, without paying the workers a decent wage.This was seen internationally, and some Veldamara ministers even resigned in shame. Now the demonstrations in Veldamara are getting bigger to demand the rights of the soldiers. And the catalyst for all this courage was Shawn.Shawn himself wasn't even in Veldamara now. He was now standing beside Rachel, looking at a small creature that had just discovered the world. His soft, red skin looked so weak. It made Shawn feel like protecting him.Shawn touched the cheek of the sleeping baby with his finger. Until the baby moved slightly. “Look at him... he looks just like you, Rachel.”Shawn smiled. He felt proud of the baby. For some reason, his chest seemed to open wide, accepting the presence of
