Samus reached out to King Kong right away. This time, the call got through.
He asked King Kong to seize Horizon Mirror Mansion tomorrow and would reward the man with fifty thousand once succeeded.
All King Kong needed to do was send his men to scare Darcy and her family away and they could get the money. It was an easy job, at least from the looks of it.
“Horizon Mirror? That’s a high-class residential area. The security guards from the Heavensward Group are professionals from a top- tier security company. This is a difficult job.”
King Kong sounded troubled on the phone.
Samus flattered the man, saying, “King Kong, you are Gold Tooth’s best hitman. No professional security guards are a problem for you. We’ve known each other for so long, can you do me a favor?”
“Fine. I’ll take this job. I am only doing this for you and no one else.”
Right before Samus could thank the man, King Kong added, “But, you must pay me more.”
“Grandfather, he wants five million!”
Samus covered the phone and asked Master Quint for his opinion.
The others were shocked.
Five million?! King Kong might as well rob a bank.
A moment of hesitation later, Master Quint nodded. “Fine. Five million
it is. If he can get the Horizon Mirror for us, five million is a small price to pay. It’s worth it.”
The others immediately gathered the money.
The Quint family was not financially stable at the moment, so forking out five million at once would deal quite the damage to their pockets.
The next morning, Darcy went to the office after having breakfast. She had to interview some candidates for the company.
Agnes and Hector went out to do some grocery shopping before a walk while Kaze stayed home to do chores.
He was humming a melody while cleaning the house.
“Tsk. If the guys at Imperial Court knew that the God of War is staying at home as a full-time house- husband, they would probably go mad.”
Draco mumbled as he arrived at Kaze’s home, amused to see Kaze in
an apron.
The man was in casual clothes and had a pair of glasses hangin his nose. His disguise was to prevent Kaze’s in-laws from recogniz
him.
Kaze looked at him. “How’s the investigation going?”
When Kaze was forced to fight the war representing the Lee family, Darcy and her family went through a series of unusual incidents.
First, the former person in charge of Quintessential Group, Hector, got into a car crash and broke his leg.
Then, Agnes was caught in a medical incident at the hospital she worked in. She was then fired and had been jobless until now.
Quintessential Group, which was the rising star company back then, got into a series of trouble. The management was dissolved and the group almost closed down.
Now that Kaze had returned, he swore to find out the person behind all these so he could bring justice to Darcy and her family.
“I got some clues.”
Draco swapped his frivolous manner for a serious look and said, ” When you were enlisted, the Lees from the capital, Sunrise City, got the Hilfingers of Lilyrose to set up a series of traps for Quintessential Group. The company’s partners left one after another, and it caused a major loss.”
Kaze narrowed his fierce eyes. It seemed like Henry Hilfinger and his family were lackeys to the Lee family.
There was no way Kaze would spare them now.
“Many of Quintessential Group’s businesses were dissolved and absorbed by other companies. The core business of Hilfinger’s company is built upon the business that they absorbed from Quintessential Group back then.”
Many companies and families teamed up to annex a majori businesses of Quintessential Group.
The Lee family gave the order and the companies in Lilyrose to dismember Quintessential Group piece by piece.
As for Hector’s car crash and Agnes medical incident, both were from years ago and someone sabotaged the details regarding bot incidents. They required more time to investigate. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Kaze believed the Lee family had a huge part in either of the incidents.
“Then we shall use the Lees and the Hilfingers to uproot all the other companies and families who were responsible for dismembering Quintessential Group,” Kaze said with a cold expression.
Hector and Agnes came back from shopping.
Before they went inside the house, they saw a mob of gangsters march into the compound.
They were dragging a security guard of the Skylar View District by the hair. The poor man was beaten up terribly.
The leader of the group was a man in a yellow jacket. He had multiple ear studs on both his ears and there was a cigarette hanging on his
mouth.
The scar on his face that resembled a centipede looked terrifying. The man was King Kong, Gold Tooth’s best hitman.
