Chapter 67
Derek stood quietly in front of Sylvia.He did not answer her question. He simply looked at her with a calm face.Sylvia waited, but nothing came.Her eyes narrowed. "Who are you?" she asked again.Still nothing. Derek stayed totally quiet.That silence pissed her off more than any wrong answer.She slammed her hand hard on the wooden table.BANG!"Who are you?" she yelled.Derek did not flinch.Sylvia glared at him. "Why are you like this?" she shouted, hitting the table a second time. "Why are you so difficult? Why do you act like nothing in this world matters to you?"Derek said nothing.Sylvia breathed heavily, her chest moving fast. "Why are you so hard to get?" she asked, taking a step closer. "Do you know I can order my men to finish you right here?"Her voice shook with rage. "I can tell them to kill you, and nobody will ever find your body. Nobody will know where you disappeared to."Derek's expression did not change.Sylvia pointed her finger at his face. "And yet you stand

The Black Dragons scattered in different directions, running for their lives before Sylvia's guards could lock down the street."Do not let them get away!" one guard yelled.He bolted after a fleeing gang member, caught up fast, and tackled him hard onto the concrete. He dragged the man back by his shirt and shoved him to his knees."Who sent you?" the guard barked.The guy kept his mouth shut tight.The guard twisted his arm back harder. "Who sent you?""I do not know anything!" the guy screamed, sweating."Who sent you?" the guard repeated coldly.The guy looked terrified, eyeing his friends who had already disappeared down the road. He broke completely. "Mike!"The guard frowned. "Mike who?""Mike Harrison!" the guy yelled out.Sylvia turned her head instantly when she heard the name. "Let him go," she ordered.The guard released his grip immediately. The guy scrambled to his feet and sprinted away like a frightened rabbit.Sylvia's face darkened. "Mike Harrison," she muttered, cle

Before Derek could step out of the cab, another car pulled up behind them fast.The vehicle stopped with a sharp screech.Four doors opened at the exact same time.Eight men stepped out into the street.They were dressed in black from head to toe. Their faces were cold, and every single one of them moved like a seasoned street fighter.Derek stayed inside the cab.The moment he saw them, his eyes narrowed.He recognized them immediately.The Black Dragons.The Black Dragons were not a regular gang. They were a dangerous illegal crew operating outside the law, taking money to beat people up and settle debts for wealthy clients. They had no official badge, no legal protection, and no link to the military. Their dark reputation came from the brutal jobs they accepted.When someone wanted a person beaten, kidnapped, or put in the hospital without police getting involved, the Black Dragons were the ones called.They were ruthless.And now eight of them stood in the street.Derek looked thr

Michael tried to get back on his feet.His hands pressed against the hard ground as he struggled to push himself up. His head was still spinning from the heavy slap.He finally managed to stand.The moment he took a step, his legs gave out completely."Ah!" he yelled, staggering and falling back down.Jacinta rushed over to him. "Michael!""I am fine," he muttered, pushing himself up again.He stood up a second time, but his whole body swayed back and forth. He took another step and stumbled hard.He hit the ground once more.Angelina stared at him in disbelief. "Are you okay?"Michael gritted his teeth in pain. "I said I am fine!"He tried a third time.This time, he managed to stand for a few seconds before staggering backward. Jacinta grabbed his arm quickly to hold him steady.Meanwhile, Derek was already walking away. He did not look back even once.Angelina lost her temper completely. "You weak fool!" she screamed.Derek kept on walking."You murderer!" she shouted louder.He di

An hour passed.Angelina stood near the back door of The Grand Monarch with her arms folded across her chest. Jacinta stood beside her, checking her phone for the tenth time, while Michael leaned against the wall with a grin on his face.They were waiting for Derek.None of them left.Angelina was sure Derek would come out through the back door after the workers threw him out. She wanted to see his face when he walked out in disgrace.But nothing happened.The door remained shut.Jacinta sighed and dropped her phone into her bag. "Are you sure this guy will pass through here?" she asked. "We have been standing here for almost an hour. Let us just go. Maybe they took him straight to the police station through another door."Michael burst out laughing. "The police station?"Jacinta shrugged her shoulders. "What else do you expect me to think? That restaurant is not a place someone like Derek can just walk into and out of. Maybe he caused trouble, could not pay the bill, and they called
Chapter 62
The waiter left Derek's table fast and headed toward the kitchen.Derek sat calmly, waiting for his food.Across the room, Angelina was already enjoying herself.She leaned back in her chair with a wide smile. "This drama is going to be very funny," she whispered."I cannot wait to see what happens," Jacinta chuckled.Michael looked over at Derek. "He really ordered the most expensive meal?""The most expensive one," Angelina replied with a nod. She laughed again. "That meal costs millions. Imagine a guy like Derek ordering it."She shook her head in disbelief. "He has lost his mind completely."A few minutes later, something unexpected happened.The restaurant manager stepped out from the private section.Angelina's smile vanished for a second. "Wait."She turned to Jacinta. "Is that not Manager Raymond?"Jacinta looked over. It was Raymond, the main manager of The Grand Monarch.Raymond was no ordinary manager. He was a popular businessman in town, and he rarely left his office to a
