Chapter 989
Garland laughed drily. โYouโre joking, Mrs. Houston.โ
Debra smiled playfully. โBut you do seem a little different from the last time we met. You should remember the 50 million dollars I spent on you, right?โ
Garland replied, โThat isnโt a big deal. I can pay you back.โ
Debra turned serious. โThatโs not how things work. A person should have integrity. You promised me, and since Iโm the boss, you canโt back out so easily. Youโre a man of your word, arenโt you?โ
Garland recalled Juanโs advice and sighed. โTo be honest, I was under a lot of pressure at home, so I came here to have some fun. Nothing more to it.โ
Debra raised an eyebrow. โThatโs a wild coincidence. You just arrived in Seamar City, and here we are meeting.โ
Debra wasnโt one to believe in coincidences, especially not in a world full of hidden agendas.
But Garland stuck to Juanโs script and spoke seriously. โI feel the same way. You didnโt intentionally seek me out, did you?โ
Debra immediately associated this with Andrew, who tipped her off about this arcade. She suspected that this meeting with Garland was also his design.
Garland saw the suspicion in her eyes and knew he had successfully shifted her focus.
โDo you also find this arcade a bit strange?โ he asked meaningfully.
He pointed to the claw machine nearby, where a clear label indicated the machine was made in Orkgate. The manufacturer was none other than the Lowe Group.
In Orkgate, at the Lowe Groupโs headquartersโฆ
Several men were pinned to the ground, trembling in fear. โPlease have mercy, Boss.โ
Chapter 989
Drake sat at the head of the room, his gaze cold and calculated. His voice, slow and dangerous, oozed with malice. โIโll ask again. Who did this?โ
โIโll tell you everything,โ said one of the men, scrambling forward. โItโs a private buyer. We donโt know who they are, but they had one of our contracts. They asked us to deliver the latest machines, and we followed the contract to the letter. I swear, everything Iโm saying is true, boss.โ
Drake demanded, โThe buyerโs contact information and the delivery location?โ
โThere werenโt any contact details. They only specified the machines should be sent to the docks of Seamar City.โ
โDoes the contract have my signature?โ
โNo, it doesnโt.โ
โThen itโs your signature, isnโt it?โ
โNo, I didnโt dare.โ
Kale stepped forward. โBoss, should we get rid of him?โ
Drake muttered, โJust chop off his hands.โ
He stood up, picked up a hammer from the table, and brought it down hard on the nearest machine. The sound of metal smashing echoed in the room.
Drake shook his hand, which had numbed from the impact, before giving the rest of the machines a cold glance. โSmash them all. Take these machines and his severed hands to the docks of Seamar City.โ
โYes, boss.โ
Drake strode out of the room, ignoring the cries and begging behind him. He loosened his tie, his expression dark with irritation.
Kale followed him out. โBoss, it looks like someone in Seamar City is targeting the McKinney Group. This could be a great opportunity for us.โ
