“I'm surprised to see you here, Lena?” Reed said curtly the moment they both watched the ladies being driven away by the cops.

Somehow, Selena released a light blush as she tucked her hair behind her ears. Only then did she hurriedly bring out a file. She knew her boss.

He was easy to switch topics immediately.

“It was also very easy for you to find out where I live. Apart from the fact that you are good with your brains, you're probably good at stalking people, Hun?”

He asked again. This time, she laughed shortly. Reed complimented her again. This was something that Cornell would never do. He would instead tell her how much of a fool she is for not doing her job the way he wanted it.

“I wasn't stalking you, sir. In fact, I came here bearing good news”

“The same news that should have waited at the office till I resume? You were awesome earlier, anyway” Reed continued without a smile. However, that again made her heart leap forward as she looked downwards.

    “I have a better hair shave in my car, sir. How about I give you a nice haircut while you lean on me? That can soothe you also” Selena suggested as they walked out of the car, hoping that he would give her a positive response with a smile laced at the corner of her face. The man stared into space for a while before he nodded his head in approval. Maybe it wasn't really bad for the next day's meeting.Now that he thought about it, he wondered if the people he met there three years ago were still the same people that worked there. “Did you meet the people that used to work for my father when you went there?”However, she shook her head. “I was able to get this somehow forged. But while I was still under Cornell, I overheard him telling a friend that he made sure to send your father's employees to jail because they defyed him.”“The only people you may see are those that are scared to talk against him and the people that he employed directly, sir” “Get ready, you will come with me t

    “Take your hands off me, you idiot!” The man screamed out in excruciating pain! However, Reed tightened his hands again, causing no space! On seeing that Reed had probably gotten stronger since he must have learnt a lot of skills after going to jail, he swallowed his pride and closed his eyes. “I'm sorry.. let me go!” He managed to say while Selena looked at her boss. Judging from the cold look laced on his face, it did not seem like he would let him go anytime soon. “I'm not the right person to beg!” Reed replied sharply, not letting go of his hands while the man screamed out. At this rate, he was definitely sure that his hands would either break or he would never be able to use it again. “What… Ah!” The man yelled again. To the other people, it seemed as though he held his hand like a layman. Why then was he screaming like a fool?Was that… a look of fear on the oldie's face? They all thought in bewilderment. Back in the days, the oldie used to tell a lot of stories of how he us

    Floral spa! Those words were on Reed's lips as he stared at the place Selena had brought him to.It seemed local just like the one provided for them in jail. Old posters were pasted on the walls of the building that seemed like it was set for demolition. For a while, there was stunned silence while the smile on Selena's face faded. Had her boss perhaps not taken a special liking to this that he wished to turn around and leave? She thought, her mind disoriented. Only then did Reed nod. “Do you like the place, sir?”“I don't have the best response for that” He replied with a blank expression. “Tomorrow, the workers of your father's business shop want to meet you. Actually, not directly because I did not let them know that you would be coming, sir”That again impressed Reed. A while ago, he did not realize that he would be attending a meeting. “And?”Then, Selena flashed a smile as she continued, “You should meet them. Cornell have constantly abused them for a very long time and

    However, the ladies suddenly became furious when it felt as though the man didn't want to give them a chance to meet with the owner of the car. Only then did one of the ladies move towards him and hit him at the right side of Reed's face leaving him in shock. At once, energy shifted within him, wanting him to react. “What was that for?” He asked in anger. Wasn't he the one who was supposed to be angry for bashing someone else's car all because of their naivety?“That for? Listen, you're just an ex convict! You are not even allowed to live in our midst but for the sake of your brother, we are giving you a chance to. Don't you think you are higher than us just because a wealthy man is in your house!” She said furiously. Still, Reed was trying to understand where they were coming from as he sneered at them. His patience had a limit and yet, he could not lay his hands on women but he could teach them a lesson they would forget in a hurry. “How dare you lay your hands on me?” Reed aske

    However, the man was shocked to see that he could not wriggle his hands freely with Reed who held his hand tightly like a god. What sort of power was this? “Let me go, you idiot!” He screamed at Reed in anger and continued, “If you're doing this just because you want some kind of favour from me, you will not see it!”“Apologize!” Reed said again, this time more coldly while his face became filled with terror which terrified the man but didn't want to show it. After all, why should a poor man intimidate him?He may not have a lot of money like the wealthiest man in the city but he was very comfortable enough to put people like Reed in his place.“What difference will it make? Huh? It won't make him get richer because he's poor. You think this will help him? You're just a fool… Ha!” The man suddenly stopped and screamed out in shock that terrified the passerby. However, they could not understand what was going on. Reed had kicked him so hard that he became weak in pain and fell on hi
