Since his Young Master thinks so, Chad naturally has no desire to argue. He is the boss! And his thought can't be argued by a mere subordinate like him.He presses on his phone for a few moments before returning his gaze to Lucian. "Mr. Wood, he did so many heinous things! "But he, however, had hidden accomplices. Many of these middle and high-level staff were in the act with him."If he is going down, those involved should follow as well. What do you think? Should I go ahead and forward the list to the cops?"Lucian briefly gazes at the people and back at him. "Yes, forward all their names to the cops. Every man should carry his cross!""No, Mr. Wood!""Please, don't do this!""You've already sacked us!""Please suffer us no more! We have families to take care of! Please!" ...Those guilty out of self-consciousness drop to their knees and begin begging, tears streaming down their cheeks."Hmph!" Lucian snorts coldly. "After ridiculing me, you have the guts to plead for my mercy?" W
As the cops drag them away, all of the employees are visibly sobbing. Their emotion is at their peak and they can't help but pour it all out. Amidst them is Benjamin, who is not only sobbing but shaking."Miss Xavier, please help me! Please help me!" He can't stop yelling.It gets so much that the cop dragging him has to hit him on the head with the baton in his hand to snap him out lest he causes a nuisance and starts garnering the attention of passersby. As this is a discreet operation, the cop certainly can't afford to let such a thing happen so using an extra measure, albeit harsh, was necessary.In no time, the more than 150 employees are successfully dragged into the trucks and the trucks are immediately closed and bolted from the outside to avoid unintended incidents such as unwarranted escape."I'll take my leave now, Mr. Kennedy," the sheriff, albeit reluctantly as he knew he had incurred Chad's wrath earlier, nods at him before turning and walking away.As one-quarter of the
Lucian looks down at every one of them and shrugs nonchalantly. "Except for you two who dragged me earlier, you who tried to slap Yvonne, and you, Zander, the rest can leave! "Remember, everything that happened here today should be kept confidential! You don't know who I am, and I don't know who you are! You can get out now! You've been fired!""Thank you very much, Mr. Wood.""Thank you!""Thank you!"They exclaim, stand, and scurry away without looking back. They feel like they've just escaped hell!Hah! They're so happy that they don't care that they just lost their jobs. Fortunately, Zander's second in command is among those let go by Lucian. He happens to be the most overjoyed!Lucian looks down at the two security guards who had dragged him earlier and a deep scowl appears on his face. "How brazen of you two to kneel and plead for mercy! Because you didn't know my identity and thought me a pauper, you two kept on dragging me!"While you were doing that, you tossed my suit and wr
SLASH!"Ah!"The slashing of the lackey's hand right from his elbow and his cry of anguish bellow!THUD!The full hand drops to the ground and begins scampering. It appears to still be alive.SPUTUM!SPUTUM!Blood gushes out of the lackey's barely hanging shoulder, piling up on the floor.The acidic scent of blood fills the air! At this point, no one cares about the fact that he is naked from his waist down.Yvonne and the remaining ten employees are staring at this scene in horror."Urgh.""Urgh.""Urgh."Yvonne and five of the remaining employees begin vomiting. They seem to have a phobia for blood. It turns their stomach to the point where they can't stop vomiting up everything they've eaten. Yvonne had almost vomited on Lucian, but fortunately, he had seen through her on time and moved far away!The burly figure shakes his head at the sight and tears the lackey's pants into two.He uses one of the pieces to tie up his bleeding barely hanging shoulder. Lucian wants him to live. Ev
"There was a feud in the company. These three got into a fight and while that one over there could snap out the other two, he sustained severe injuries and fainted. I'm sure guys will know why. That lady over there -""We know her condition, Mr. Kennedy," the two assessing the lady raise their heads and say respectfully, cutting him off. "She appears to have a phobia for blood. We will take our leave now. In case, there are any more questions, we can contact you, right?""Yes, feel free," he responds with a calm smile. "By the way, which hospital are you taking those two to?""Since you are involved, Mr. Kennedy, we will be taking them to Silver Crest Hospital, the best hospital in this district. I hope that's no problem.""Of course not. Feel free. That was the reason I asked anyway.""Alright," they smile. "We will inform the families of those two about their deaths, so they can take care of every possible charge.""Can I get your autograph now, Mr. Kennedy?" The same lady rushes ov
There is a huge golden circular chandelier that hangs a little low in the middle of the office as the halogen bright light cascades upon the green orchid plants situated at three different positions in the office. The plants alone give the office a soul-soothing fragrance. If care is not taken, one can easily dose off at mere contact with the office.The sun shines so brightly that its rays reflect on the huge brown Turkish mahogany desk in the center of the office filled with multiple files on a straight line, a can of pen, a MacBook Pro, and a flower pot containing a chrysanthemum flower. Behind the Turkish mahogany desk is a throne-like golden chair and in front of it are two roller ash seats for the chairman's guests. To the far left is a two-seater ash sofa and in front of it is a glistening black table with a flower pot containing a rose flower in it.To the far right-hand side is a simple, yet beautiful bookshelf with a lot of company documents and novels as well.There is
"Yvonne? Yvonne?" Lucian calls and gently taps on the desk to get her attention.Yvonne's cheeks burn and she flushes in embarrassment seeing she has just been caught ogling. She quickly averts her gaze and lowers it to the desk before slowly sitting.Lucian chuckles lightly at her flushed cheeks and sips his coffee. "I didn't catch you ogling. It didn't happen. Now answer my question."Of course, he did. He had just said that to make her feel better.Yvonne, however, knows he just lied. But since he can go that far to make her feel better, she quickly composes herself and sighs as she says, "Before Mr. Chad Kennedy purchased this company, we were on the verge of closure.""Why?" He furrows his brow."I can't exactly say Mr. Wood," she sighs exasperatedly. "Things just kept deteriorating and we kept losing funds. "We had to depend on loans. But at a point, all the banks refused to offer us loans until we pay up the money we owed them."I didn't know what to do. I had tried so many ti
The unnamed lady is perplexed as to why Yvonne is getting angry with her so quickly. Yvonne, whom she has known since she began working at Silverlight Microsoft Company, is carefree and rarely gets angry.In normal circumstances, she would never become enraged over something so insignificant. What is going on now?Is it really her question that has her riled up? She has this feeling in her guts that her question is far from the reason Yvonne is riled up right now, however, she knows how important her job in this company is to her, so to maintain it and not end up losing it because of something as insignificant as that, she can only lower her head and sincerely apologize, "I'm sorry, Miss Xavier, I won't speak again."Yvonne sighs deeply and pats herself on the head. She can't actually tell what is wrong with her. She just suddenly started having a mood swing ever since Lucian left. Perhaps, could it be because he refused to let her lead him out? Or is she literally falling deeply in l
