"Where's Edmund? Why isn't he here by noon?" a beautiful young woman asked her staff.
"Sorry, miss! I don't want to draw attention to myself and disparage others, but that's the truth," quickly responded a young assistant manager at the Scotland branch of the company.
"What's going on here?" asked the young lady, who turned out to be Elizabeth.
"Manager Edmund is always late for various reasons. He's late every day. Sometimes he comes at 10 am, then at 1 pm he goes home and doesn't return to the company," the assistant manager replied matter-of-factly.
"What is your name?" asked Elizabeth sternly.
"I'm Flora Ferguso, miss!" she replied curtly.
"What is your position here?" asked Elizabeth again.
"Assistant manager to Mr Edmund, who does the daily chores," Flora answered frankly.
"Do you handle all the office duties, including signing off on projects and reports?" asked Elizabeth unhappily.
"Sorry miss, it's all on orders
"Y-you can't, young lady!" replied Katherine nervously."That's bad! If he finds out that I'm also a member of that gangster, I'm finished!" she thought to herself."Why are you doing nothing, Katherine? Didn't I assign you to give me the data about Edmund and his men?" Elizabeth asked suspiciously."B-well, miss!" replied Katherine getting nervous and agitated.Her nervous and agitated reaction made Elizabeth and her men frown, and they concluded that Katherine was involved in Edmund's organisation.Without hesitation, Elizabeth ordered her men to arrest Katherine, assuming that she must be involved in an attempt to embezzle company money to finance her boss's organisation."Arrest her, and kill her if she resists!" Elizabeth ordered suddenly."What is the meaning of this, miss? Why are you arresting me?""You can lie to others, but you can't fool my men. You are one of the members of the street gang, along with the three peop
That very day. The news of the defiance of Edmund and his men, as well as the attack on the bodyguards of the Spencer Group's younger brother, was heard by Killian, and it made him furious.With careful calculation, Killian ordered 200 of his 1200 men in other parts of Northern Ireland, under the command of 4 elite commanders, to attack and flatten the headquarters of Edmund, the ungrateful man. Four elite-level commanders led the bodyguard group. One of them acted as the chief commander who oversaw the three existing commanders.That day around ten o'clock at night, when people were about to go to bed, Evander, a former MMA fighter and the strongest soldier in his unit, despite his resignation, was seen giving instructions to his large number of men.He emphasised the tactic of ambush and finishing in his instructions, then disappeared without a trace and did not cause the slightest commotion during the attack."Listen up everyone, at midnight tonight, w
Meanwhile, the four-person group tasked with visiting the brothel were currently at the location and went straight in, posing as customers. But only one person acted as a customer while the rest combed the hotel rooms or the brothel.Their goal was to find and locate Edmund and his 25 men, and sure enough, everyone they were looking for was indeed in the rooms they went to.Wasting no more time and fearlessly, they entered all the rooms occupied by Edmund's subordinates simultaneously."Who are you?" asked one of them in surprise as Gunnar's men entered his room while he was having fun with two of the brothel's comfort women.BAAM...SLIT...Without answering or making a sound, a thirty-centimetre dagger flew at the man at high speed, hitting him squarely in the neck."Both of you be quiet and don't shout, if you still love life!" said the assailant with a cold expression.He then approached the body of Edmund's subordinate, pi
News of the fire in the two places, which were not far apart in time, soon spread throughout the city. Many speculations about the cause of the fire were heard that night.Some attributed it to the rivalry between gangsters over territory. Others attributed it to a joint operation deliberately set up to eradicate gangster groups that often disturbed the community.But in the end, all the speculations did not find an end nor a bright spot, and everything remained a mystery until whenever.***The next day. Elizabeth, who was still in the Northern Ireland area, also heard from her assistant that the headquarters of Edmund and his men had been levelled to the ground by burning.None of Edmund’s men was still alive. All of them had been killed by whoever. But Elizabeth herself knew that it must have been her foster brother Killian.She realised this. Elizabeth was touched and grateful for her brother's care, even from afar, and it made her
"I apologise, young lady. So far, no report has come to us that the company headed by Dorian has been engaged in extortion for quite some time.""If we knew about this, we certainly wouldn't let anyone harass the Spencer Group. For the sake of the company, we are willing to die. For the sake of Spencer Group, we are willing to sacrifice!" replied Evan or Evander at length."In that case, what about you, Manager Dorian? Is there any defence from you?" responded Elizabeth suddenly."I-I!" Dorian replied nervously."Why are you nervous like that and like you're afraid of something? Isn't this just a trick of yours?" asked Elizabeth quickly, with a slightly raised voice, trying to uncover the strangeness that happened to the Dorian manager."Don't let this all be just a trick of yours to get a large sum of money by telling those people to come here!" said Elizabeth hesitantly."Miss Secretary, I've been working for the Spencer Group for quite so
Elsewhere, a well-built, tattooed man was seen walking hurriedly into the headquarters of his street gang.He had just returned from another city, receiving news that many of his men had been arrested. The man had rushed back to Northern Ireland to confirm the news.The clock at the time was already 10.51 pm. The cloudy weather did not prevent him from visiting his headquarters. Arriving at the base, he was immediately greeted by fifty of his men on guard duty. The group was led by a guard commander named Jonathon."Greetings, boss!" they greeted in unison."Let's not mince words; answer my question!""Is it true that all our men in the eight companies have been arrested and killed?" asked a tattooed man angrily."Yes, boss. Even Edmund, who was known as the richest member, has been killed!" his men replied frankly."Then who are the remaining members who have not been detected?" the man asked again."They've all been caught. T
"How did they enter the building when all the doors were locked?" Jonathon said to his men."I don't know, commander; maybe they got in through that fragile window next to the warehouse!" his men replied."Insolent. At a critical time like this, you're busy discussing! Hurry up and help me shoot at the enemy; who knows if they're in the darkness of the tear gas!" ordered Jared, behind the cloth cap covering his mouth."But boss, up ahead in this room, hundreds of our men are also trapped in the tear gas. If we shoot, I'm afraid we'll hit our men!""I don't care. Just shoot those useless people!" Jared replied with a smirk."They're either dead or asleep from the tear gas anyway. So just shoot them. Who knows, the enemy will die in them, too," Jared replied with a heart of gold.But his men, who still had yet to fall, didn't want to listen to their boss. Instead, they were busy covering their noses and eyes to avoid inhaling and exposure to t
"I don't have any other savings in cash, but I do have gold and other jewellery. Sir, you can take them later.""Well, that's good. Hurry up and show me where it's kept!" responded Evan happily."Come with me, sir. I'll show you where it is," replied Jared, already starting to breathe a sigh of relief. Then walked inside, followed by ten of his men, but Evan prevented him."Eits, you stay here; my men will serve you later!" said Evander to Jared's ten subordinates.Then he gave the code to his hundred-plus men to do something. It more or less meant, "Clean up the human trash and leave no trace of it!"That was the code Evan had given his men. All of his men understood the secret code and immediately got to work."You are our guests of honour. Therefore, please sit on the sofa while we wait for your boss to come out," Lamont said, smiling sweetly at them."Thank you, boss!" they replied happily, thinking their opponent would release th
