Chaos ensued at the dock.
When Boss' men arrived at the dock to receive the batch of goods, they were ambushed. Consequently, both parties began shooting at each other.
There were two teams of ambushers. One team went to get the goods while the other team continued shooting back at Boss and his men.
Somewhere further away, Boss, who was on the phone, checked the time and got annoyed when he saw the signal at the dock.
“Sh*t!” he cursed. After dumping the phone aside, he wanted to rush out of there. However, the moment he turned, someone appeared right in front of him.
When he saw who it was, his yellow pupils constricted, and he knew danger had arrived. “J? Is that you?”
Kenneth gazed at him arrogantly. “Yes. It's me.”
Boss turned toward the dock and shifted his gaze back toward Kenneth. While clenching his fists, he asked, “Are these people yours?” “No!” Kenneth shook his head and flashed a faint smile. “I'm just here to help. Those men belong to your nemesis.”
“Reichen?” Boss narrowed his eyes, and his expression turned grim. He then raised his gaze toward Kenneth and questioned, “Did you form an alliance with him?”
“Not so much of an alliance. I'm just helping him, really.” Kenneth was calm and collected, as usual. At the same time, there was an ambiguous grin on his face.
When Boss saw there were people meddling with the batch of goods at the dock, he knew if he were to fail the mission, his status in Vermillion Base would be at risk.
With that in mind, he glared at Kenneth and asked, “How much did he pay you?”
“What?” Kenneth chuckled coldly and uttered, “It seems like you don't know anything about me.”
After that, Kenneth stopped smiling and added, “With the money I have, I can buy Vermillion Base! No. Scrap that. I think I can even bury all of you with cash!”
Boss was rendered speechless. How did Iforget he's richer than the country itself? For people like us, we need to work and risk our lives for money. For him, he doesn't need to do anything, and wealth would come to him. It's like he's blessed with the talent to make money'.
At that thought, Boss' eyes turned gloomy. In the next moment, he suddenly whipped out his gun and pointed it at Kenneth. “In that case, I'm not going to show you mercy.”
“Ha!” Kenneth chuckled. Still as calm as before, Kenneth stared at him and said, “Oh? Are you going to use the hard approach on me?” “J, get those men to stop what they're doing. Otherwise, I’m really going to shoot you,” Boss warned.
Kenneth scoffed and glared at him. “Go on, then!” With that, he gradually walked up to Boss. In the darkness, his eyes appeared even more darkened, as if he knew Boss wouldn't dare to pull the trigger.
“Since you've already backed out, why would you get involved in this mess again?” Boss asked in a cold tone.
Kenneth's gaze became even sterner after hearing Boss' question. “Well, you would know, wouldn't you? Firstly, you got hackers to attack my company. After that, you messed with my woman. What do you think you're doing? Do you think just because I've backed out, everyone could bully me?”
Boss pursed his lips. “Prior to that, you've injured my men first.”
Kenneth didn't deny it. “Indeed. Since you know it was me, then you should know I've already shown you mercy. Otherwise, do you think you guys could roam safely in Glenport City until this day?”
Boss was rendered speechless when Kenneth put him back in his place.
“The batch of goods on the ship means nothing to me. To you guys, however, the goods are quite important, aren't they?” Kenneth asked.
An unfathomable glint flashed across Boss’ eyes when he asked, “What the hell do you want?”
Kenneth’s expression changed drastically, and he said, “What I want is fairly simple. I want you to answer my questions.”
Boss stared at him in silence.
“Why did you look for my woman the last time around?” Kenneth asked.
Boss smirked. “You're doing this for a
