"Aren’t we...at Lucky Den right now?"
"Alright, noted," Jim replied curtly and hung up the phone.
By the time he hung up the phone, Joshua had just gotten off his call with the three children.
At this moment, they were sitting in a private booth o n the second floor.
"Master Quinn is here!" All of a sudden, the high-pitched exclamation from one of the waiters rang out from downstairs.
Joshua and Jim exchanged glances, and Jim immediately handed him a set of bodyguard uniforms. “Let's hide your identity first, then we’ll see what he's up to."
Joshua nodded and went into the washroom to change his clothes.
When he came out of the washroom, he bumped into one of Malcolm's men.
The man was standing in a corner outside the washroom, barking orders into a walkie-talkie, "Do you remember Master Quinn's instructions? When the woman arrives...
"Alpha, you're in charge of fabricating an accident and installing a tracker onto that woman's bag and clothes.
"Bravo, you're in charge of keeping an eye on the tracker and finding that woman’s hiding spot as soon as possible.
"Charlie, you’re responsible for following her after she’s left Lucky Den. You can't lose her.
"Delta, you're responsible for keeping an eye on things here at Lucky Den. Master Quinn has said that Joshua Lynch might be following the woman here, so we're on orders to kill him as soon as he appears.
“The person who kills Joshua Lynch will receive a hundred million dollars from Master Quinn as a reward!"
With that, the man tucked his walkie-talkie away and strode off.
Joshua came out of the washroom dressed in a uniform and a pair of sunglasses, a cold smirk playing on his lips.
He, Joshua Lynch, the CEO of Lynch Group, had more than a hundred billion dollars in assets...but to Malcolm, his life was only worth a hundred million dollars?
Did Malcolm think too lowly of him, or was Quinn Group only capable of forking out this amount of money?
