Chapter 180  Only three of the Rhodes Corporation’s ten truck were recovered, while the other seven, fully loaded with medical supplies, had vanished without a trace.  Jerry pointed at the injured security guards and shouted, “You’re a bunch of good–for- nothings! The Rhodes family would’ve been better off keeping a pack of dogs than paying you!  “Come on, we all did our best,” one guard protested, clutching his bleeding arm. “They caught us by surprise, and they had too many skilled fighters. We were overwhelmed.”  Jerry’s eyes narrowed as he strode over and slapped the guard hard across the face. “Who do  4  you think you are to talk back to me? Those supplies better be found, or I’ll make sure you pay for your incompetence!”  The guard swallowed his anger, and the others shot Jerry resentful looks. Within the Rhodes family, Jerry was the most despised figure.  As the Rhodes family’s elite fighter, he never treated them like human beings, regularly beating and berating them at will.  “Jerry, let them rest and recover,” Lauren intervened. “We can send others to search for the supplies.”  Jerry scoffed. “Rest? Miss, you’re too soft on these dogs–that’s why they’re so lazy. I’ve told Mr. Rhodes Senior before that these worthless pieces of trash don’t deserve to serve the Rhodes family. They should’ve been fired long ago. Just look at this useless bunch–what an eyesore.”  The security team hung their heads in silence at the verbal abuse. Lauren frowned but said nothing.  Andrew’s calm yet sharp voice cut through the tension. “Blaming others for your own incompetence? Is that your idea of leadership?”  Jerry turned with a cold laugh. “How I handle them is none of your concern. Or do you think getting lucky with Tracia means you can survive me?”  “I killed Tracia with one punch,” Andrew replied calmly. “And while I could easily do the same to you, I haven’t found a reason to yet. I just can’t stand cowards who bully their subordinates instead of doing their job. For a supposed elite fighter, you’re pretty pathetic.”  “You must have a death wish to talk to me like that,” Jerry growled. “Do you have any idea who I am in Jayrodale?”  “Do you think I care about your status?” Andrew glanced at him dismissively. “To me, you’re  still just trash.”  Jerry’s fury burned as his fists clenched tight, but he did not strike. He taunted, “I know who  +25 BONUS  Chapter 180  you are, Andrew Lloyd, and I know Ms. Rhodes thinks highly of you. But a loser will remain a loser. You might be good at charming women, but if you ever end up in my hands, you’ll be nothing more than a corpse.”  After his cold threat, Jerry picked a few men and ordered them to follow him.  “Jerry, where are you going?” Lauren asked urgently.  “Miss, your pretty boy here called me trash,” Jerry replied arrogantly. “I’ll show him who’s really trash. I’ve found a lead on the supplies, and I’m going to retrieve them.”  “Where’s the lead?” Lauren asked excitedly.  Jerry stood with his hands behind his back, looking pretentious. “No need to worry, Miss. Just wait for the good news at headquarters. When I take action, my enemies will either run for their lives or face total defeat.”
