When he entered the villa, he was surprised by the scene that he saw. Previously, when he heard the loud screaming coming from the villa, he had thought that it was the people present in the villa that were screaming.
But, looking at the people who were wearing black clothing groaning on the ground, he couldn't tell what was going on anymore. After all, according to him, all these people were skilled enough to deal with the owner of the Glaze Hotel.
Even if he had bodyguards with him, they should surely not be able to handle a group of 10 skilled men.
Could It be that he had been betrayed? He turned and looked at the man who had called him and informed him that they had completely dealt with the problem questioningly.
As for the man, he simply shrugged his shoulders in response to that as he remained standing at a corner.
"You are here. I had been expecting you." Jack stated nonchalantly. He had already done his investigation about John. For that reason, he knew about his character, as well as all the shady things that he had done.
For that reason, he had already prepared for this. And since usually, he was always staying in the dark, he believed that John would not be able to know about him.
For that reason, he was bound to look for Denali because she was the one who mainly handled almost all the businesses concerning the Glaze hotel, before he decided to take over.
That was why he had organized a few people who belonged to the special team to go and take care of all those crooks that had been sent to the chefs' homes.
The people from the special team were not normal, as they had all taken the body strengthening solution. Just a single one of them was able to handle a group of almost 20 men. Of course, that was on the condition that their opponents didn't have guns.
And when he received the report that what he had predicted was true, then he decided to make another move. That was, by using the people of the Glaze Hotel, he went ahead and offered lucrative contracts to all the staff members who were considered important to the Soaring Eagle hotel.
When he did that, he expected that with John's character, he was bound to go and search for the main source of the problem. And that was why he had organized for Denali to come to his villa tonight.
As for security, how could it be easy for people to get into serenity residential area? It was simply because Jack had organized for security to be a little loose, that these people managed to get in here without a lot of trouble.
Even though John was supposed to detect that there was something wrong, he had thought that all of this was done since the people that he had hired this time were all too skilled.
John looked at the young man who had spoken. Even as he sat there, John could detect that there was something special about the young man. He was not like the other young masters that only knew how to waste their time in clubs and casinos.
"So, you are the real owner of the Glaze Hotel?" John asked. Even though all the people that he had sent over had been crippled and were laying on the ground, he didn't panic at all.
He had handled several similar situations before. For that reason, he was sure that there was nothing that was going to be done to him. After all, besides some kind of warning, what else was there to be done to him? He was sure that Jack couldn't kill him.
"What do you think?" Jack asked in return. He wasn't intending on entertaining John at all.
John frowned when he heard that. But thinking about the situation that they were in, it was normal for Jack to be in a foul mood at the moment. After all, there was someone who had planned to attack him.
"Alright then. The real reason as to why I came over today is to negotiate with you. I know that you have been trying to poach a lot of my staff members, but I hope that you don't continue with that. Otherwise, we are definitely going to be enemies." John said as he slowly walked towards a couch to sit down.
But before he could sit down, he was surprised that he had been grabbed by a strong hand. When he looked at it, he was completely stunned when he saw that it belonged to a lady.
"Who told you that you are allowed to sit? You are not a visitor here, so better stand when talking to my boss." Samantha said in a cold voice.
John, for some reason, felt chills down his spine. Even though he wanted to argue, he knew that he was currently disadvantaged. For that reason, he had to play by some of the rules that had been set by the other party.
So, without much arguing, he continued standing. As for Samantha, she didn't move away from him. Instead, she continued staying close, ready to make a move in case John did anything suspicious.
"You are talking as if we are not already enemies. If I recall correctly, you were the one who made the first move. And when it comes to the issue of your staff members, don't you think that it is fair enough for me to get some of your staff members to work for me, in the place of those that were killed because of you?" Jack questioned nonchalantly.
John's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He looked at Jack with widened eyes. He couldn't believe that Jack actually realized that he was the one who was behind the attack that was launched on the Glaze Hotel.
But after a period of contemplation, he thought that this was just a fluke by Jack. "Do you have any evidence to prove that?" John asked. He tried to maintain his confidence, even though he was completely shaken at the moment.
"Do you think I need proof to deal with you? To me, it doesn't matter whether I have any kind of proof or not. As long as you dare to do anything that goes against me, then you have to be ready for my retaliation." Jack replied.
Before John could say anything, Jack continued. "Let this become a warning to you. Don't dare to do anything else that is out of line. Since you wanted to compete with me, then that's just good. I'm going to make sure that that business of yours will go bankrupt."
John was immediately infuriated when he heard Jack's words. This was the first time in a very long time that he had been actually threatened. And, the business that he really loved was actually going to be destroyed? That was just unacceptable.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm He stretched his hand as he pointed his finger towards Jack. He wanted to start threatening him, but before he could do anything, he suddenly felt a heavy force hitting him on the back.
Before he could even react, he was already on the floor. He could feel immense pain on his back, as if his scapula was about to be dislocated from its location.
With the heavy force that had thrown him forward, it wasn't just the back that was injured. Instead, even his nose had hit the ground, and blood had already started flowing out of it.
"You better behave here." Samantha stated coldly. Ever since she had taken a role as Celine's bodyguard, she had decided to do this with all her heart. After all, the reason as to why she was doing this was because of an existence that was at least at the same level as the vice leader of her organization.
Even though she did not understand why strong people like Jack and Denali were actually engaging in some useless business to earn money, she didn't ask them. Everyone had their preferences.
John's anger was already at the peak. And when he was hit, he was just about to explode. But, thinking about this immense pain that he was feeling, he decided against it.
From the eyes that were looking at him, he was sure that Samantha would definitely attack him again in case he did anything else that provoked them.
"I will be giving you a warning this time. When you get back home, you better make sure that you stay at home and don't involve yourself in anything like hiring crooks to do dirty work for you." Jack started.
"You can simply sit back and enjoy the show as I destroy the soaring Eagle, the one that has always been your pride. And, don't blame me for this. You can blame yourself for not only involving yourself in the hotel industry, but also for the fact that you attacked me first. For that reason, you will have to expect that I will attack you first as well."
"Nonsense! Do you believe that I can-" before he could even finish what he was speaking, he suddenly felt that someone had kicked him.
He rolled on the ground as he held his stomach tightly. The kick that he had received wasn't lenient at all.
John struggled through the pain, as he tried looking up, to see who it was that had kicked him. But, he was surprised to see that the person who had kicked him was not Samantha.
"Humph! They already said that you have to behave yourself here. What the heck are you yelping about?" A man whose face was covered in black clothing stated coldly.
John couldn't believe his eyes, and neither did the other four. After all, according to what Jack and the others believed, this person was actually hired by John to come over. But now he was the one who was attacking John?
"What are you doing?" John couldn't help but ask through the pain. If eyes could kill, then the man standing in front of John would have already died a thousand times.
Bang!
Instead of replying to the question, the man kicked John again. Thereafter, as he watched as John rolled on the ground screaming in pain, he stated coldly, "It seems that even your senses have failed. I wonder if this time you know that I was kicking you? If not, I can kick you again."
John: "…."
Jack: "…."
Celine: "…."
Denali: "…."
Samantha: "…."
Others: "…."
