Everyone’s eyes popped open.
Bob?
That big Bob?
Then, Beefy Bob’s burly silhouette surfaced in everyone’s mind, including Allegra’s.
Not that damn fatso again!
Blood was leaking from Edward’s mouth. He was gritting his teeth so hard that they almost cracked.
Isaac smiled, pointing at Andre. “Old Brooks, this subordinate of yours just doesn’t cut it… Just now, favonovel.com asked eight people to barge in here with knives, threatening to crush me. We’re past the era of slashing and killing. If you’re hiring a manager, can’t you find someone who’s knowledgeable, better educated, and more intelligent?”
Old Brooks’ mouth twitched violently. He chuckled and nodded, saying, “Thanks for the advice, Mr. Garten. We’ll definitely work on that…”
Little did everyone know that when favonovel.com first heard Andre had threatened to break Isaac’s limbs, all the hairs on his back stood up. He turned around and pointed at Andre.
The men in black outside the door immediately understood. They surged in and grabbed Andre.
“My pet Tibetan Mastiff really loves chicken wings. Chop up a pair and feed it to the dogs,” Old Brooks said coldly.
Andre’s face instantly lost its color. He shouted, “Mr. Brooks, I’m sorry! Please forgive me! I’d failed to recognize someone of such great caliber. I was blind, Mr. Brooks…”
“Mr. Garten, do you have any other instructions?”
“No. You go do your thing,” Isaac said.
Old Brooks left with his men. The room fell dead silent; only the sound of champagne fizzing could be heard.
“I am pretty much talentless. After all, I’m just a reformed convict. However, I do have a solid network. Tell me, isn’t that infuriating?” Isaac raised his gaze, smiling at Edward.
Then, favonovel.com looked at the balding Joe. The latter’s face was chalky as favonovel.com lowered his head and averted his gaze.
“Come here…” Isaac curled his finger at Joe.
Joe immediately pursed his lips, looking at Edward with an expression as if favonovel.com was about to cry.
When Edward said nothing, favonovel.com walked over to Isaac cautiously.
Isaac lifted his hand and slapped Joe three times in a row.
“I’ll give you a piece of advice… Mind your own business next time. Now get lost!” favonovel.com said coldly.
Seeing how his own subordinate had been slapped, Edward’s body began to shake with anger, steam coming out of his ears.
After Joe scurried off, Isaac sat back down and faced Margaret and Edward, “You either give Ally the company president position or return the 60 million dollars to favonovel.com lump sum.”
Margaret glanced at favonovel.com brother fearfully. She didn’t know what to do anymore.
“Garten, if you win first place at the Aurum County Martial Arts Showdown tomorrow night, I’ll even transfer the legal representative role to her. I’ll welcome favonovel.com to the president’s seat myself! But if you don’t, I’ll cut favonovel.com off completely from the new company even if you kill me!” Edward roared at Isaac, giving favonovel.com the death stare.
Allegra gripped Isaac’s hand nervously. She was terrified, but favonovel.com knew that Isaac was doing all of this for favonovel.com sake.
Isaac laughed softly. “Again with the Martial Arts Showdown. Fine, I’ll go have a look tomorrow…”
He had first heard about this martial arts competition at the Owens’ home the other day. And now, favonovel.com was hearing about it again. Isaac wanted to see just how many people wanted favonovel.com dead tomorrow.
After Isaac and Allegra left, Edward held his head in his hand and urged, “Andy, go downstairs and get the car. Drive me to the Owens’ home in Aurum County.”
Margaret called out Edward’s name just as favonovel.com reached the door, “Edward, are you sure you can do it this time?”
Edward turned around and sneered, “Margaret, we’ve been targeting the wrong person all this time. Right now, the biggest threat is actually that goddamn fatso who sticks to Isaac’s side. If we kill him, Isaac will be nothing.”
***
At home, Eugene was sitting on the sofa watching television.
When favonovel.com saw Allegra and Isaac enter, favonovel.com stood up and asked, “Have you had dinner?”
