CHAPTER 20
It was a hit from the driving side.And the car was vertically folded, its width squashed in half.The chances of anybody sitting in the driver’s seat surviving were close to zero if not none.The truck that hit the police car drove away without stopping.Many people rushed over to the car and pulled Kevin out. He was covered in blood and was unconscious.They could still feel his pulse, so they called an ambulance.A few minutes later, the truck driver arrived at a secluded building and met an old man in a butler suit.“The job is done. There’s no way he would have survived that,” the truck driver said. “Give me the rest of the payment.”The old man pointed at his chest.The truck driver looked down and saw a red dot on his chest. His eyes widened to the max. But before he could run away, a bullet flew past the butler’s head and pierced through the truck driver’s chest.The old butler took out his mobile and called a number. “The car has been hit, Master Jack. The chances of him surv
CHAPTER 19
The officer cocked the gun. “Any last wishes?”“Just one wish,” Kevin said. “Let me pray to God.”“You are going to him anyway after I pull the trigger, aren’t you?” the officer retorted.“You’ve got a point. Then let me at least tell you guys my bank password,” Kevin said. “I don’t want my money to end up in my in-laws’ pockets.”“How much money are we talking about?” the officer asked.“A million dollars,” Kevin replied.The two officers looked at each other. Greed immediately filled their eyes.The officer who was already pointing his gun at Kevin just shifted it to the second officer.“W-Wait,” the second officer was saying.BANG!A headshot killed him instantly.Kevin’s heart sank into his stomach.“I didn’t kill him, Kevin,” the officer said. “You did. Now, tell me the online password to your account.”Kevin swallowed his breath. “It’s a long password. Give me pen and paper. I will write it down.”“Do you think I’m foolish? Don’t try anything funny and say the password,” the off
CHAPTER 18
The baseball bats, hockey sticks, chains, and knuckleduster punches rained down on Kevin from all quarters.Kevin’s focus, however, was only on the leader of the gang.Stepping forth, he dodged the punch of the leader, ignoring every other attack, and threw his fist which flew like a pistol.The leader’s nose broke, and blood gushed out as the leader got stunned and shook like a tree with no roots in the soil before falling to the ground.At the same time, many hits landed on Kevin, and he was badly wounded, too, but not to the point he wasn’t able to stand.And he kept standing and throwing punches left and right.His bare fists only targeted the opponents’ faces because he believed that would be the most effective.And he managed to land attacks on four men, but also got hurt by others in the process.Kevin was brought to his knee, and baseball bats pounded his back.They could have gone for his head and broke his skull, but that wasn’t their purpose. They were paid to cripple him n
CHAPTER 17
Kevin took a gamble and said he was fighting Sariyu’s brother, hoping that they had some feud between them.It turned out that his guess was correct.Sariyu gave him a chance to explain himself, but only within one minute.Kevin did not talk for the first twenty seconds, but Sariyu watched him calmly.Ten more seconds passed, and she took out a gun from the table drawer and put it on the table.Kevin swallowed his breath.“I, uh, I… fought your brother the other day,” Kevin quickly said. “He came to my grandmother-in-law’s birthday party and openly coveted my wife. I confronted him and beat his bodyguards and made him leave.”Sariyu’s face softened a bit.“I don’t think that’s enough to crush him,” Kevin added. “But if I rise, then I will resist him strongly. I will become a handy ally of yours.”Sariyu glanced at the minute-glass. “Your time is up. Do you think you’ve said enough?”Kevin hesitantly nodded.“What makes you think I’ll be happy with you crushing my brother?” She grabbed
CHAPTER 16
“I’m fired?” Kevin raised his eyebrows. “Says who?”“Don’t you know who I am?” she growled. “I’m the newest board member of Draknor Finance.”“That’s a long-ass name,” Kevin snickered.“My name is Sariyu, you fool!” she went for a slap, but he was quick to catch her hand.“Wow, why are people so eager to fight me today?” Kevin said. “The guard also raised his baton a minute back.”Sariyu’s expression changed. “You’re not the guard?”“Of course not. I am the CEO,” he replied, letting go of her hand.Sariyu’s eyes widened. “Y-You’re the newly appointed CEO? Did Jim Draknor already decide on the CEO position of Draknor Finance?”“Whoa, whoa, I’m the CEO of Serenity,” Kevin clarified.“Serenity? Never heard of it.”He smiled and gave her his identity card.“Ew? A toilet manufacturing company?” she tossed the card away and then started wiping her hand with her kerchief, then threw the kerchief away as well. “I can’t believe I touched literal trash like you.”Kevin’s eyes broadened in shoc
CHAPTER 15
Later that morning.Kevin was driving to his office in his old Chevrolet car.“What is this golf club that Aunt Brielle was talking about?” Kevin asked the system. “Do you know about it?”[Yes. About five months ago, Jack Shamus bought the Grandview Golf Estate for 2.1 billion dollars.]“2.1 billion dollars…” Kevin’s heart started racing. “He also bought a big bank, didn’t he? What is his estimated net worth?”[Officially, it’s 40 billion dollars. But I can see that his real net worth is close to 100 billion.]Kevin’s heart nearly dropped. “H-Hundred billion! No wonder he was willing to give me a thousand cars like it was nothing. How am I supposed to compete with a guy like this?”He was starting to feel goosebumps.He still couldn’t forget his mother-in-law calling him a second-hander. Those words stuck in his mind and squeezed his heart.What hurt him even more was that he couldn’t say anything at the time. He couldn’t tell her that she was wrong.Though she was being very rude, sh
