The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 729

“It's not a nine-to-five job, I suppose?” Donald asked.

“Of course not,” Susan answered with a smile. “I heard from Gavin that you're in the employ of Dragon Fide Corporation?”

“Yes. What about it?”

“Will you be able to get in touch with Jennifer Wilson?”

When Donald heard Susan mention Jennifer, he narrowed his eyes and stopped counting the banknotes. “Of course, I know Jennifer. She's the CEO of Dragon Fide Corporation.”

“Will you be able to get near her?” Susan then took out a bank card from her handbag and placed it on the table. “Aldrich has issued a mission—anyone who can kill Jennifer will be rewarded with five million. There's five hundred thousand in this bank card. Consider this as my deposit to you. I'll pay you the remaining four million and five hundred thousand if you succeed in killing Jennifer.”

Initially, Donald had only intended to investigate Aldrich's arms smuggling in Pollerton, but to his surprise, he also discovered that the latter had issued an assassination order in the underground circles.

Donald took up the bank card and asked another question, “How many people have accepted this mission?”

Susan threw him a puzzled glance and asked, “What has that got to do with you?”

“I should at least find out how many people I am competing against, shouldn't I? Jennifer's bodyguards are no ordinary individuals. Even if I'm able to get close to her, it's not guaranteed that I'll succeed,” he explained.

Susan contemplated for a while before she replied, “Based on what I know, three people have accepted the mission. If you're not confident in the mission, you can wait for the others to make their move and find an opening amidst the chaos to kill her.”

She then ordered her subordinates to get rid of Ruth's and Zordan's bodies.

After briefing Donald on the areas he needed to take note of as her newly hired subordinate, Susan instructed Gavin to escort Donald out of the factory.

As soon as they stepped out of the room, Gavin gave Donald a thumbs-up and praised, “You're amazing, Mr. Campbell. I've not seen Susan treat anyone this well in a long time. Do you know how difficult it was for me to become her subordinate?”

Susan did not declare Donald's actual rank as her subordinate, but based on the gift and mission given by her, Gavin knew the other's man position would be superior to his.

At that, he was relieved that he had established a decent relationship with Donald earlier, as he did not make things difficult for the latter.
