Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In Porta, at an exclusive private club.
While Bruce White was cooking up a storm at the Richards’ wedding, the impasse between Kirin, Rica Dart, and Hugo Samson had also entered a white-hot stage.
Watching more and more men gathering outside the door, Howard Wagner, who was standing behind Kirin, felt a great sense of trepidation.
On the other hand, Kirin still appeared quite calm and unconcerned.
“You two have spent a lot of energy thinking about my proposition. I believe you have already made a decision?” Kirin said to Rica Dart and Hugo Samson who continued groveling on the ground with an irreverent look on his face.
At this moment, Kirin’s cellphone suddenly rang.
“Almighty?”
Kirin took out his cellphone and was kind of startled when he looked at it. He immediately looked at Rica Dart and Hugo Samson. “You guys continue thinking about it amongst yourselves, I have to answer this call first.”
Afterward, Kirin took the cellphone, walked off to the side by himself, and answered the call from Bruce White.
Soon, the call was over and Kirin solemnly dialed Green Dragon’s number.
“Check right now and don’t hang up! I need to know right now what Albert Richards did!” Kirin said in a commanding tone.
It did not take long for Green Dragon to use his intelligence network to find the ins and outs of the whole matter.
When Kirin heard the news, he couldn’t help but start cursing into the phone.
“What the hell? Goddamnit to hell and back! Little Green Dragon, do you mind repeating that stupid thing you just said? Almighty’s sister was forced into marriage?? How does your special mother of an Eastern Defense Headquarters do things around here? Why are we just now learning such a major frigging deal?”
What?!
Kirin was so surprised and angry when he heard what was happening that he cursed nonstop when he heard it. Green Dragon, on the other end of the phone, was feeling quite wronged.
The Headquarters of Eastern Defense received a lot of information every day and the Richards were just a second-tier player in Porta. Even a major figure like Hugo Samson could not attract much attention at the Headquarters of Eastern Defense, let alone a second-class player like the Richards.
If Green Dragon hadn’t looked up the name, Brianne Taylor, he would have never noticed this information at all, so Green Dragon was feeling pretty wrongfully accused of incompetence.
On the other side, Rica Dart and Hugo Samson both froze in place after hearing Kirin’s outburst.
Little Green Dragon?
Headquarters of Eastern Defense?
Listening to his tone, the King of War from Eastern Defense, Green Dragon, sounded just like another one of his subordinates?
The Headquarters of Eastern Defense was being cussed out by him like some useless piece of crap?
Was this the same Green Dragon, King of War from the Eastern Defense, that they knew? Was it the high and mighty Headquarters of Eastern Defense that everyone talked about?
He terminated Timothy Stuart, the King of Javon, like it was nothing, and now he spoke to the King of War from Eastern Defense as if he was a servant who messed up… Who was this man that stood in front of them? What authority did he have to be so arrogant?
What?!
In an instant, there were countless questions in their minds that not only did not get sorted out over time but became even more entangled. This surprising turn of events clouded both of their minds.
What kind of existence was this?
The two of them cast their eyes towards Kirin and shuddered at the same time. A thick astonishment flashed in their eyes.
Before the two of them had any time to recover from the initial shock, Kirin hung up the phone and was royally pissed off now, standing directly in front of them.
“I am sure you two heard what I just said. The situation is urgent and I don’t have any more time for the two of you to think any further. I am going to count to three, and you must give me an answer. Surrender, or die!”
Boom!
Rica Dart and Hugo Samson’s minds short-circuited in an instant, buzzing as if they had been hit by something on their heads and couldn’t quite react to what they were hearing.
“Three!”
However, whether they could react or not did not seem to have much effect on Kirin. He just started the count right away.
Wow!
The two of them sucked in a breath and wondered what the hell was with this situation? Why did everything become so urgent all of a sudden?
They had no time to even think about it now—who pissed off this unstoppable terminator!!!
Rica Dart and Hugo Samson were screaming inside, but at this time, Kirin was already standing in front of them, looking down on the two as the word “two” came out of his mouth, cold and indifferent.
At this moment, Kirin was like a giant who peaked into the sky, a daunting and frightening sight to behold.
“One!”
Boom!
The atmosphere of battle and bloodshed crushed them in an instant. Rica Dart and Hugo Samson quaked at the same time and at the fastest speed they could, they spat out a word, “Surrender!”
Wow!
Kirin’s aura instantly retracted and the massive panic in the hearts of these two slowly subsided at last.
When the two came back to their senses, they found that their entire bodies had been drenched with cold sweat. In the intense moments that preceded, they thought that they would surely die.
“Very good! Since you have surrendered, we are all on the same team now. Get up. In the future, you will slowly discover how wise the decision you made today is!” Kirin said in a steely voice.
Rica Dart and Hugo Samson stood up tentatively. When they looked at Kirin, they were full of fear and awe.
“Does Porta have a guy named Albert Richards and is his son getting married today? Does either one of you know anything about this?” Kirin asked them directly.
Albert Richards?
Rica Dart and Hugo Samson both showed blank expressions when they heard the name.
Obviously, as the queen of the Porta’s underworld and top-tier business giant, it was to be expected that neither of them would have any idea about someone as inconsequential as Albert Richards.
“I will give you ten minutes. No matter the cost, ruin this man, Albert Richards, completely!” Kirin ordered.
This…
Rica Dart and Hugo Samson were taken aback again. Then, Hugo Samson couldn’t help but ask, “Si…Sir, may I ask how did this Albert something…offended you?”
“Humph!” Kirin snorted coldly, and said nonchalantly, “It is not me he offended but my boss, and that means, he offended your master!”
Wow!
Hearing his answer, Rica Dart and Hugo Samson were a little bit unsteady. The man in front of them was already so powerful that the King of War from Eastern Defense and the Headquarters of Eastern Defense had to do his bidding.
Then, would the one behind this man be even more terrifying?
Oh Albert Richards, Albert Richards, who the hell art thou? The Richards are finished today!
Once Rica Dart and Hugo Samson recovered, they immediately opened the door of the club and said to those who were waiting outside. “Everyone, immediately find a man named Albert Richards! We have to erase him in ten minutes!”
Boom!
An order issued jointly by Rica Dart and Hugo Samson was the equivalent of a commandment in Porta.
In an instant, the people under both of them started to mobilize all over Porta and began to search for a man named Albert Richards.
Countless people were talking on the phone, searching on the street, and the entire Porta became very lively.
All the enterprises, banks, and engineering projects related to Albert Richards responded straight away.
It was no exaggeration to say that ‘Albert Richards’ was definitely the most searched name in Porta that night.
“What, Albert Richards is a distant relative of yours? Forget it, forget it! Get the hell out! You don’t need to show up at work tomorrow.”
“Effective immediately, every project, partnership, and supply contract related to Albert Richards will be stopped—we are keeping none of them!”
“The latest order, there is a problem with Albert Richards’s credit investigation. Stop all loans extended to the Richards and immediately freeze the Richards’ bank accounts!”
In just a few minutes, Porta began a vigorous and concerted effort to shut down Albert Richards.
Whether it was Rica Dart’s connections or Hugo Samson’s associates, they were all doing their best to lock down Albert Richards.
Kirin gave them ten minutes to complete the mission, but in fact, it took them less than five minutes to shut Albert Richards down completely.
In just five minutes, a second-class player in Porta was completely and totally sanctioned.
This was the combined strength of Rica Dart and Hugo Samson, which was also the one and only time in the history of Porta that they collaborated.
For a time, every street and alley in Porta was talking about this and wondered this Albert Richards was, and how on earth did he provoke both Rica Dart and Hugo Samson at the same time for such a thing to happen?
“I’m okay with Albert Richards, his courage is commendable, I respect him as a man.”
“Don’t make me die from laughing! You respect him as a man? I guarantee you, he has nowhere to go now even if he wanted to hide.”
“I bet you a hundred bucks Albert Richards’s head must have been damaged by something. He would not be able to make such an incredibly stupid decision unless he had ten years of meningitis.”
Albert Richards would never have imagined that this was how he became famous in Porta, and for a time, he was Porta’s No. 1 celebrity.
At this time, he was still unaware of it, but it wouldn’t be long until he would soon learn about this….
