Matthew immediately rushed away from the scene and hurried toward the third floor, the final floor.He stumbled while climbing the stairs and didn't even bother standing up properly afterward. Using both his hands and legs, he practically crawled his way to the top of the stairway.‘The elite team should be able to handle him,’ Matthew thought as he stood outside the door to Mr. Giovanni's office.‘But what if they can't?’Matthew was beginning to lose his mind.He pushed open the door and saw Mr. Giovanni speaking with his twelve-year-old son. Beside him stood Mr. Lucas Grey, the second-in-command of the Bear Brotherhood.A man who had fought in some of the deadliest wars the country had ever faced.If Brother James and Brother Joshua were regarded as ex-military, then Lucas Grey was the true definition of it.As Matthew entered, the sight before him froze him in place. He regained his voice and wanted to report immediately, but Mr. Giovanni stopped him with a gesture to wait.Matthe

Michael’s brows narrowed as he stared directly into Lucas’ eyes.“What do I care? I survived. That is all that matters.And as for whether I am good enough, my fists will speak for me.”Lucas said as he took his stance.The moment he settled into position, Mr. Giovanni poured himself a glass of wine.“Kill him immediately. I don't want to toy with him.”He drank from the glass calmly.He believed Michael was at the second stage of the Warrior Realm.No doubt a second-stage Warrior Realm fighter would be capable of defeating everyone downstairs.He had built the Bear Brotherhood on exaggeration.All he did was inflate the caliber of the men under him beyond their actual standards, and that fear alone had kept the Bear Brotherhood standing strong.It had also kept others of similar strength from daring to challenge them.But now, it seemed that strategy had finally backfired.Even if they killed the bastard today and regrouped immediately, they would now be challenged far more often tha

The tension in the room was heavy as papers flew across the round tables.More than seven people sat opposite one another, exchanging information back and forth.“If we do exactly this, are you sure there won't be another way for them to produce Vitality Capsule?”The CEO of A-Level Energy said as he looked through the documents in front of him.“There is no way a company like theirs can survive something like this.”He placed both hands on the table and continued.“It seems odd to us because we are large companies, but Vitality Capsule didn't come from one of our kind. It didn't come from a company that was already established. By that, I mean a small business.It came from a chemist store.What facilities could a chemist store possibly have?I bet a week ago Hudson Chemist Store was still thinking about how to increase production for their medicine shelves, so tell me, how would a chemist like that be prepared for such a massive leap in reputation and responsibility?To prove they a

“It would appear you do not know what this is all about, and I wouldn't want to make this conversation a lengthy one.”Samuel stood up and faced Aubrey. He looked her in the eyes before continuing.“The people I work for don't mind their intentions being exposed on social media. After all, these are mere business negotiations, nothing scandalous or negative.Meanwhile, your social media accounts would be brought down the moment you post my picture online.That is how powerful the people I work for are.”“You don't know the other things they could do.”With that, Samuel walked away and stepped toward the table on the opposite side of the room. When he reached it, Aubrey realized the man had made himself a cup of coffee, meaning he had been there for quite a while and had even made himself comfortable.Thinking about how relaxed the man was, she wondered what kind of people he worked for to make him this confident.“The offer is a hundred million dollars, and you will be part of the cre

“You can't be serious, Sir Michael. Nobody can walk up there and make a deal. That place has been sealed for a long time now. There is no way they would reopen it for any deal. The military doesn't even care about money. They practically rule the entire country.”Aubrey couldn't help but voice out her thoughts. She didn't see them actually pulling something like this off.Now that she thought about it, Michael had been gone for five years. He probably didn't know that the place had been shut down for four years now.“Damn, I forgot that you've been away for five years now. They shut it down.”Aubrey walked up to the telephone at the front desk in the store. She placed the bag she had been carrying all along on the table before bringing out a long piece of paper that contained several phone numbers.“I went through all the manufacturing and distribution companies in Autumnvale, and I wrote down their numbers.”Without looking at Michael, Aubrey continued.“I will be calling them one by
