"Boss Reno is going to Eso Island with Boss Raka." Ryan scanned the message intently, stuffed the phone into his pants pocket, and exhaled a long breath. Ryan observed the Red Sting members, who continued to arrive. "Boss Reno didn't tell me anything about his work with Boss Raka. He just said that he had to help with Boss Raka's work. They're also involved with that group of masked people."Ryan clenched his fists tightly. "I'm glad that my squad members are back together. However, their arrival in large numbers will make the enemy suspicious. Those people will likely attack again, and I'll have a hard time guarding and protecting them all at once."Ryan gripped the railing, glancing at a masked man behind him. "Those damn people have been true to their word up to this point. Not only did they provide a safe place, but they also provided my troops with everything they needed, including weapons. What exactly is their relationship with Boss Raka?"Ronny approached Ryan. "Dad, we have
The masked troops continued to fire nets and bullets at the hooligans. The brats moved past their friends, still lying on the ground. Draco surveyed the scene from the car's roof, grunting in annoyance. "They knew about this attack in advance."Masked troops fired bullets from balconies, rooftops, courtyards, and treetops. The moving punks began to fall to the ground, trampled by other punks.The masked troops threw smoke bombs in various directions. The hooligans collapsed after sucking in the smoke. Draco was shocked to see the hooligans lying on the ground. "You bastards! They used smoke bombs to make those scum unconscious! Why does Red Sting have smoke bombs? Do they have allies helping them?"Draco clenched his fists tightly. "Their shooting skills are also impeccable. They're not Red Sting members. They are trained people."Ryan, Ronny, and the Red Sting members watched the battle from a large screen. They saw large numbers of troops arriving from various directions. The punk
Althon was observing his appearance in the mirror. He took a deep breath, surveying the room. "I feel like time is flying by, even though I've been home for four days." Althon clenched his fists tightly. "I can't afford to slack off while those three jerks and their families are busy with their lives. I need to finish this task well." Althon walked out of the room. Ali and the bodyguards bowed respectfully to him. "Master Anthony is waiting for you, young master," Ali said. Althon and Anthony met at the dining table. "How are your preparations going, Althon?" Anthony asked. "I've made some plans, Grandpa. I hope to complete the mission as well and quickly as possible." "Don't be so hasty, Althon. You are judging a human being, not an object. People are unpredictable. They can change in a very short time." "Althon." Anthony touched Althon's hand. "You need to be very careful on this assignment because you will meet people from families related to your three uncles. Even thoug
Several luxury cars began to enter the courtyard of Star Company's headquarters. Several well-dressed and luxurious women and men got out of the cars and entered the lobby. The employees greeted them very warmly. Star Company's CEO candidates began to enter the room. Some of them chatted with each other, and the rest chose to remain silent. "I didn't expect that I would qualify to be one of Star Company's CEO candidates. I still can't believe it even now," a tall man said as he took a drink from a waiter's tray. A beautiful woman replied, "I feel the same way. It is a special gift for me. Star Company is a big company that has fantastic wealth." The short-haired man said as he observed the other candidates. "I'm quite tense right now. Look around you now. All the candidates are from high-class families that have very high credibility. There are no easy opponents.""Whoever is chosen to be the CEO will be closer to wealth and success, including being close to the Leander family as
All the candidates noticed Althon and Ali. Some of them started whispering and asking questions. "Do you know that man, Lily?" asked Philip as he scrutinized Althon from head to toe. "I don't know him. It is the first time I've seen him," Lily replied. "I know all the candidates because they are from Thondonia, but I don't know that man. He's most likely from abroad.""I was thinking the same thing." Lily took a long breath, trying to calm down and ignore the man. "All the candidates are great people, Lily. It would help if you didn't underestimate anyone, including that guy," she thought. Althon pretended to fall, and Ali immediately helped him up. "Ah, I was careless. Thank you for helping me.""I'll wait for you outside the room, sir," Ali said, bowing for a moment. He walked out of the room. Some of the candidates began to sneer at Althon in whispers."I think the guy who left just now is a better candidate than that guy with the glasses. He looks like a nerdy guy," Philip m
A man hurriedly walked down the hallway, ignoring the guards who bowed in respect to him. He pressed the bell and entered the room after receiving permission. The man walked faster, observing another man standing near the window. He bowed briefly and remained silent. "You may speak now," said the man by the window, his gaze still fixed on the troops encircling the lake. "All the preparations are complete, Master. The troops are ready to move at any time." The man turned, facing his subordinate. "Have you found any new clues regarding the whereabouts of Arthur and his family?" "I deeply apologise, Master, but I have not gathered any new information about Master Arthur and his family. However, the search is still ongoing." The man let out a long sigh, walked past his subordinate, and sat on the sofa. He sat in deep thought for some time, clenching his fists tightly. The room was utterly silent, and the clock's ticking echoed in the quiet. The troops were still encircling t
"Thank you for doing me a favour when everyone is looking at me sarcastically, Philip.""I don't care about you, you idiot! I want to make a good image for Mr. Paul and the Star Company employees," Philip muttered.Althon and Philip hurried to gather with the candidates. "We'll call the first participant. Asghar Walrode, you get the first turn for the interview with Mr. Sean. Follow that man now."Althon nodded and followed the man out of the room. The other candidates tried to stifle their laughter. Althon entered the room, sat on the couch, and stared at the screen, which showed Sean and several bodyguards. "I can see how they all look in this place."Paul said, "We'll call the second participant. Philip Lorenzo."Philip looked very confident. He looked calm, smiling. "I wonder what that idiot did during the interview with Mr. Sean. Did he screw up, or did he suddenly lose consciousness?"Philip was silent for a moment. "He was probably one of Mr. Sean's subordinates in charge of
"I work as a director in one of my family's companies. It's not a big company. However, I tried to do my job as best I could. The company is increasing after overcoming many obstacles," Althon said."Damn, he just makes me sick with his useless stories," Philip muttered. "Then, how did you become one of the candidates?" Philip wiped the stain off his lips with a tissue. He had no appetite for being around Althon. "My choice to sit with this fool was a wrong choice. If it weren't for a positive image, I wouldn't be willing to talk to or be near this scum," he mused."I'm from Thondonia and moved to the kingdom of Talu several years ago. I received a scholarship from one of the Leander family's foundations as a child. I got the best grades and worked as a mercy officer and one of the staff at a subsidiary of the Star Company until I moved to the kingdom of Talu on my father's orders."Philip thought, "Ah, it all makes sense now. He's smart and doesn't come from a lowly family, but he's
