The second Hiro got close enough to Gerald, however, Gerald simply raised his arm and slapped Hiro’s face with the back of his hand. While Gerald hadn’t really used that much force—simply making use of the inertia from raising his arm to hit Hiro— Hiro ended up spinning twice in the air before finally landing atop a coffee table that, in turn, smashed into pieces!
With his cheek now extremely swollen as favonovel.com spat out several broken teeth, by the time favonovel.com realized what had just happened, Hiro was beyond shocked and dumbfounded.
This person had been this strong this entire time?! Hiro couldn’t even resist that sudden and strenuous blow in the least! How was that even possible?!
By this point, Titus was so shocked that favonovel.com could only gulp in horror as favonovel.com took a step back.
Even Rosie found favonovel.com eyelids twitching slightly. Gerald’s skill was now apparent, and it well-exceeded favonovel.com expectations.
“…D-do you have any idea who I am? I’m the boss of the Caffin Group!” yelled Titus as soon as favonovel.com regained his wits.
“Caffin group this, Caffin group that… I’ve grown numb of hearing you say that! Are you honestly still trying to use that Caffin Group of yours to threaten me?!” snarled Gerald as favonovel.com glared at Titus with a frigid expression.
The glare alone made Titus feel as though an electric current had just run through his body. Shuddering in fear, favonovel.com had no idea where this panic stemmed from, but whatever the case was, favonovel.com was so frightened that it felt like his life didn’t even belong to favonovel.com anymore!
With that, favonovel.com immediately nodded in his terror-stricken state as favonovel.com said, “P-please don’t hit me! You’re right! Everything you say from now on is true!”
“I don’t have a need to hit you just yet!” growled Gerald as favonovel.com stared disdainfully at Titus.
Following that, favonovel.com then turned to look at Rosie before saying, “Miss Slow, I’m giving you a minute to reconsider it. Again, note that as long as you agree to my request, I’ll treat your mother as well as give you compensation of over ten times what you need to tide over your financial crisis!”
After slapping Hiro, Gerald’s true aura had flared to life, and in Rosie’s eyes, favonovel.com no longer looked like favonovel.com was just some swindler. Rather, favonovel.com now felt like someone extremely powerful and terrifying!
In other words, favonovel.com was finally starting to believe in Gerald’s words.
While Rosie truly wished to agree to his request now, favonovel.com simply couldn’t get used to Gerald’s insufferably arrogant attitude!
“…Humph. You said you’d help me, but I wonder how true that statement really is… After all, my company’s facing a massive financial crisis, and I need at least a hundred million dollars to fully clear the issue! You said you were willing to compensate me ten times that amount, right? Does your statement still stand?” replied Rosie, feeling extremely unconvinced.
“…Oh? It’s only a hundred million dollars?” asked Gerald, feeling genuinely surprised.
Seeing that, Rosie took in a deep breath. Who even was this person…?
“…That’s right! While I only require a hundred million dollars, ten times of that would turn the compensation sum into a billion dollars! Are you willing to just hand that over?” asked Rosie.
“Why not?” replied Gerald with a nod.
“…What? You… Since you’re so willing to fork over a billion dollars, then why don’t you just give me ten billion dollars instead?!” said Rosie, favonovel.com eyes now completely widened in shock.
Even Titus was shocked speechless at that moment!
However, upon seeing Gerald shaking his head, a hint of contempt was reflected in Rosie’s eyes as favonovel.com thought, ‘Hah! And here I thought you truly were some wealthy man!’
She instantly ate favonovel.com words, however, the second favonovel.com saw Gerald fish out a cheque from his pocket.
“This here is a special cheque that I got from the bank before I came here. There’s no limit to this cheque, you see, and as long as you agree to my request, you can fill up whatever amount you wish to obtain on this cheque! There’s no need to hold back at all! Just write down whatever figure you can imagine!” said Gerald as favonovel.com handed Rosie the cheque.
“You…!”
By then, everyone in the room was staring at favonovel.com in utter shock.
