Chapter 277
Haylan stared at Robert without blinking.
His gaze was as sharp as knives while his killing intent was prominent and chilling.
Though the sentence seemed to be a question, it was in fact a threat.
As he spoke, a murderous aura enveloped Robert like a tsunami.
Robert looked straight into Haylan’s eyes with a distressed expression as he clenched his fists. At this moment, he was filled with grievance.
He had guarded Lightdom City for so many years, and he had always been the one threatening others. Now, out of his expectation, he was threatened by Haylan.
“What a humiliation!” he thought to himself.
Indeed, it was a blatant humiliation.
He wished to go on a rampage, fighting Haylan on the spot and stopping only if either one was dead.
However, he could not do that!
It was because he could see the killing intent in Haylan’s eyes.
If he did not agree, Haylan might make a move and start a massacre!
Most importantly, the killing intent emanating from Haylan’s body was too terrifying. Even though he was a powerful seven-star General, his heart tremble in fear, causing him to not dare to make a move rashly.
Seeing this scene, Dominic, Shawn, and the others were shocked once again.
They found it astonishing that Haylan had actually stunned Robert.
To them, this was simply unbelievable.
Haylan ignored the others and kept staring at Robert. “Why don’t you say anything? Does it mean you disagree?”
No matter how much Robert clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, in the end, he compromised and said, “You’re right. I agree.
“Mr. Bard, you can’t do this. I am your follower, after all. If I kneel in
front of everyone for a day and a night, not only will I lose face, but your dignity will plummet,” said Hugh hurriedly.
“Shameless!” Haylan’s extended his hand as he stared coldly.
In an instant, a fruit fork flew into the air at lightning speed and punctured Hugh’s cheek, landing on his skin and flesh like a nail. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
“Ouch!” Hugh’s face twisted in agony.
He wanted to scream loudly, but since the fork had pierced through his cheek, it felt as though both sides of his cheeks were being torn apart. when he opened his mouth. Meanwhile, the pain was like
a fire that he
was unable to scream at all.
Seeing this, the expressions of Robert and everyone present changed. drastically again.
It was Telekinesis!
And it was shockingly powerful!
Having displayed such a move, everyone once again witnessed how terrifying Haylan was.
This was the skill of a seven-star General. Meanwhile, seeing the relaxed expression on Haylan’s face, it was rather likely that he was stronger than a seven-star General.
“Mr. Bard, this is Hugh’s fault. You know, he simply broke an arm and injured an ear, which is in no way comparable to the hardships my friends and I have suffered. Do you agree with my point of view?” Haylan asked coldly.
Robert was looking very gloomy, but in the face of Haylan’s words, he could only nod in agreement.
“Since Mr. Bard thinks so, Hugh Croydon must pay the price accordingly.”
Haylan’s eyes were cold as he reached out to point.
Two powerful sword beams swept across the sky and immediately shattered Hugh’s knees.
The man fell to his knees on the spot, screaming continually.
Meanwhile, standing opposite him was no one but Perry and Noah.
“Apologize!” Haylan demanded coldly.
As he spoke, he released a terrifying aura that squashed Hugh.
Hugh was scared out of his wits, immediately kneeling on the ground and apologizing non-stop. He begged the duo in front of him for mercy. “I’m sorry, I was wrong. It’s all my fault. Please forgive me.”
“I promise. It won’t happen again.”
When Perry and Noah saw Hugh like this, they were so flattered that they did not know what to say.
They could not believe that Hugh, one of the high and mighty Four Kings, was actually kneeling in front of them, apologizing and begging for mercy.
This was something they could never have imagined before.
It was unimaginable that it was actually happening today.
When Robert saw Hugh like this. his fat body trembled as his heart was filled with humiliation.
If words got out that Hugh, his subordinate, apologized like this, he would be the one losing face!
When people hear about this, his reputation would plummet, and he might not even be able to control his other subordinates in the future.
He walked over to Hugh with a grim face.
“Mr. Bard, save, save me…” Hugh raised his head and pleaded.
Swoosh!
But before he could finish his sentence, a vital energy wrapped around Robert’s hand and transformed into a sharp, invisible blade.
The blade beam was swift, disappearing in a flash.
Hugh’s body was instantly dismembered.
His eyes were wide open.
After all, he had never expected to die under Robert’s blade.
After killing Hugh. Robert said coldly. “Hugh Croydon, you have been embezzling and abusing your power to benefit yourself. You’ve been nibbling away at my assets for many years, so you deserve a death
sentence.”
Haylan’s expression darkened
When Robert approached Hugh just now, he had a bad feeling.
However, since Robert was too fast, Hugh was already dead by the time. he realized the man’s intentions.
He stared at Hugh’s body, his eyes cold, and then he looked at Robert and asked. “What was that?”
His main purpose in this negotiation was to force Hugh to kneel in the village of Perry and Noah so that the duo could receive an apology and regain their dignity.
However, Robert had killed Hugh!
This meant that he could no longer make use of the situation, that this matter had to come to an abrupt end.
It seemed that the grievances Noah and Perry had suffered in the village would not be alleviated and that they could not regain their reputation.
It was ruthless of Robert!
Robert looked at Haylan and did not speak to him. Instead, he turned to Perry and Noah and said, “I don’t know what Hugh had done to you, but he is dead now.
“I’ll apologize to you on his behalf. Please let this go. Is that okay?”
After saying that, he nodded slightly at the duo.
“Okay, okay, okay.
“We… we will let it go.”
Without a doubt, the duo dared not go against Robert. Instead, they were flattered when the man bowed to them, admitting his mistake. They felt like they were dreaming that they hurriedly said that they would not pursue the matter.
Seeing this, Robert smiled slightly and turned to look at Haylan. “Mr. Jaber, every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor
Now, Hugh has already paid the price.
“See, isn’t this matter over today?”
He was still a little afraid!
If Haylan did force his subordinate to kneel in the village and the matter was widely publicized, he would definitely lose face and become a laughing stock in Lightdom City.
Therefore, killing Hugh, stopping losses, and completely ending all conflicts here was the best solution!
Haylan’s eyes turned cold and he said, “Don’t forget about Landon’s injury. You have to apologize.”
Robert turned to look at Landon. “Mr. Katz.”
Landon quickly stood up and said, “There’s no need. You and I were just sparring, and I am indeed inferior. It is okay.”
Although Haylan was very strong and capable of subduing Robert, the Labenz family would not be able to withstand it at all if Robert went berserk.
For now, he only suffered a minor injury, so he did not dare to oppose Robert.
Upon hearing this, Robert flashed his signature benevolent smile and said to Haylan, “Mr. Jaber, Hugh is dead, and your friends have vented their anger. This matter is over.
“I admire you. With your ability, being a security team leader in the Mapleturz Group is really a waste of talent.
“So, how about this? I will keep Hugh’s position for you, not just the underground bank, but also the position of vice president in my group. You will get to manage everyone under you.
“Whenever you’re ready, you can come to work for me.
“I promise you’ll enjoy the highest level of treatment! And I’ll split all my assets with you!”
As soon as he said this, everyone present was shocked and gasped in awe.
Robert’s assets were calculated in the billions, and splitting them in half would be a huge sum of money
It would be so much money that one could turn the world upside down.
