Sean and his men were surprised to see that Andrew didn't even care as he killed the man on the spot like nothing was going on. This showed that Andrew had a hardened mind and he wasn't one to take nonsense.The bald leader didn't know what to do as he had seen Andrew's actions. He was not sure of what exactly he wanted to do any longer. He wasn't expecting a college kid to be this strong.Andrew went straight up to him with his bloody hands and cleaned them on the bald guy's tracksuit. The young man couldn't do anything because, seeing Andrew's actions, he knew that Andrew could do more.The man had to cower in fear as Andrew had his way. Andrew raised the big chain on his chest, and the young man gulped as Andrew dragged the bald man closer."Next time, you don't come close to my property or try to damage it. If you think you're some kind of big shot, then you can try me. I'll show you that I don't use knives to cut my meat..." He then went closer to the bald man's ear and whispered
Andrew considered the Cobra leader's desperate plea. "Anything, huh?" he said, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "Well, then, I have a proposition for you."The leader's eyes widened, "Anything, please, just don't hurt me!"Andrew's grip on the man's collar tightened. "First, you're going to pay back every single penny you and your goons have extorted from this mall over the years. And I mean double the amount"The leader's face fell, his hopeful expression replaced by one of dread. "B-but I don't have that kind of money! It'll take me years to pay that back!"Andrew's eyes narrowed. "That's not my problem. You're going to figure it out, one way or another." He turned to Sean, who had been watching the exchange with a mix of unease and satisfaction. "Sean, what's the total value of this entire mall operation?"Sean quickly did the calculations in his head. "Including the mining operation and all the assets, I'd estimate the total worth to be around $50 million, sir."The Cob
Andrew stood at the resting place in the construction site, glancing through his phone to check the news online while he awaited Mr. Cedar's arrival. He knew that the threat he had given him would surely prompt a swift response. Andrew patiently waited for the results of his actions. He wanted to assert his dominance and create a name for himself.Andrew stopped scrolling through his phone, taking a moment to smile to himself. "I will use this opportunity to conquer the Cobra gang single-handedly. I will also uncover the dealings of the underground empire," Andrew thought, determined. He knew that in the long run, after creating chaos and havoc in the Everest Mansion, they would seek revenge, and he needed manpower. Therefore, he aimed to take down two birds with one stone.Andrew stood at the resting area in the construction site, his gaze fixed on his phone as he scrolled through the latest news. He knew that his ultimatum to Mr. Cedar would prompt a swift response, and he was pat
Mr. Cedar wasn't expecting Andrew to be so ruthless. After all, he was just a kid. He never imagined that a young person could corner him like this. With no other choice, he reluctantly accepted Andrew's terms."Okay, what do you want me to do?" Mr. Cedar finally succumbed to Andrew's demands, and Andrew couldn't help but smile back at him.Andrew approached Mr. Cedar, raising his arms in a gesture of peace. "You see, we can conduct business peacefully. It doesn't always have to be violent," Andrew said to him."My terms are simple and beneficial to you. All I want is to acquire the Cobra gang. I'd like to become the boss above the boss, which is you. However, you'll still be in charge, but I will be the only one who can give you commands." Andrew walked back and forth, holding his fingers together and stretched out."You... bastard!" Mr. Cedar wanted to rebuke him, but he momentarily turned toward a nearby building, fearful of Andrew's potential aggression."Oh, you can say whatever
Mr. Cedar had finally pledged his loyalty to Andrew, signifying that certain things could indeed be bought with money. Andrew smiled and addressed them, saying, "You may leave now. I will be in touch." He approached the area where he had been resting. "Okay, Sir," Mr. Cedar politely bowed to Andrew, carrying James as they prepared to leave the construction site. James, consumed by anger and feeling betrayed by his father, unleashed his frustration. He vehemently questioned his father's loyalty to Andrew. "Who is he, Dad? We shouldn't be loyal to him... Father, he's the one who caused me immense suffering. I had to handle dead bodies... Dead bodies! And now you want him to go unpunished," James expressed his anger, determined to confront Andrew. Mr. Cedar stepped forward, forcefully pulling James back and delivering a resounding slap to his face. "Dad!" James exclaimed, holding his face in pain. "Are you out of your mind? Do you want to get yourself killed?... Sir, I apologize f
The car was filled with an uncomfortable silence as Andrew focused on the road while Hannah stared out the window, lost in her own thoughts. The tension between them was palpable, and Andrew could sense Hannah's reluctance to speak.After a few minutes of driving, unable to bear the silence any longer, Hannah finally broke the ice."Why are you ignoring me?" she asked, her voice tinged with frustration.Andrew remained silent, his grip tightening on the steering wheel. He didn't want to answer her, didn't want to delve into the complicated emotions swirling within him.Hannah took a deep breath, her voice barely above a whisper. "You can't just pretend like nothing happened, Andrew. We need to talk about this.""What do you expect me to say?" Andrew finally spoke, his voice laced with bitterness. "Congratulations on your engagement? Is that what you want to hear?"He slammed his hands on the steering wheel in anger, his frustration boiling over. The car swerved slightly, but he quickl
Daniel, who was being held by some of the crowd, was furious after Andrew landed a blow on his cheek. He could feel the pain from the impact."Andrew, you're going to pay for this. You don't know who I am," Daniel said, pushing through the people restraining him as he left the scene.Andrew, still holding onto Hannah, breathed heavily as he watched Daniel walk away.Hannah could see the anger in Andrew's eyes as he stared at Daniel. She approached Daniel, placing a hand on his shoulder, and tried to calm him down."You went too far. It's alright," Hannah said soothingly.Andrew turned to Hannah, gazing at her, and reassured her, "Don't worry, I'm here for you. You don't have to be afraid of anyone while I'm around." He hugged Hannah in front of the onlooking crowd.Meanwhile, Daniel, who had left the immediate area, didn't completely disappear. He was about to call some people to help him in the fight. He took out his phone and dialed his friend's number."Tommy, I need you right now.
Daniel, witnessing Andrew's fall, felt a surge of satisfaction, anticipating that Tommy would now have the opportunity to harm Andrew."Let's see what happens when he's out of the picture and can't have Hannah," Daniel smirked with a malicious grin.However, Andrew quickly regained his footing and brushed off his body. He glanced down at his now stained red suit."Hmm... You've just ruined a very expensive suit of mine. I hope you have enough money to compensate for it," Andrew remarked, assuming a running position as he swiftly lunged towards Tommy, who stood just a few meters away. In a matter of seconds, Andrew closed the distance and launched a kick towards Tommy's face. Reacting swiftly, Tommy deflected the kick with his elbow, effectively blocking the attack.Andrew's eyes narrowed as Tommy skillfully blocked his kick, his expression unfazed. With a slight smirk, Andrew shifted his weight and pivoted on his heel, delivering a spinning back kick aimed at Tommy's midsection. Tomm
