The Protector III

523

The moment he proclaimed as such, even Lauren was taken aback.

Her anxiety spiked because Triple Group was actually still losing sleep over that money.

Firstly, the amount involved was simply too enormous.

Secondly, that sum of money was specially funded by South City.

Hence, they had tried their best to do charity, in order to clear their guilty conscience.

Mentioning that sum of money was a direct hit on Triple Group's weakness.

Levi repeated in a chilly tone, "Today's negotiation will revolve around the three points that I had stated. Number one, return the money; number two, make a public apology; number three, either get lost or obey the law!"

His words were simply too cool!

Seth was so awestruck that he had almost cried!

Mr. Garrison is a real man!

Lauren was beyond stunned.

The negotiation wasn't supposed to go like this...

Even so, what the hell is this?

"Didn't you say that you were getting married? Triple Group has five days! Don't blame me for being merciless if you fail!"

Levi gave them a deadline.

"Levi, the points I was going to bring up today were-"

Lauren was cut off mid-sentence.

"I'm sorry to say this, but you have no right to do so! Since you've asked for a negotiation, everything is up to me!" Levi left no room for discussion.

"Fine. So, you mean that everything you say is equivalent to Morris Group's decision?" Lauren scoffed.

"Of course! Since I'm here, it means that I represent the entire Morris Group!" Levi nodded.

"Are you sure that this is how you want today's negotiation to go?"

"Yes."

Lauren's lips curled in disdain. "Then, can you bear the consequences?"

"Bear the consequences? I think that I should be the one asking Triple Group this question. I'm only giving you five days! If you don't do what I have asked, I will personally take everything back and drive Triple Group out of Erudia!"

Levi sounded impassive as though he was talking about the weather.

"Hahaha..."

Everyone, including Lauren, erupted into fits of laughter.

Drive Triple Group out of Erudia?

He must be crazy to be able to say something like this, right?

Even the leaders of South City have turned a blind eye to this matter.

Who in Quebec would dare to go head to head with Triple Group?

A measly company like Morris Group?

They're indeed a tough nut to crack, but they're still nothing, compared to Triple Group.

"Levi, do you really think that you possess authority just because they had sent you here to negotiate? They clearly did that as a mere formality, but you've seriously thought that you were some kind of important person?" Lauren snickered.

"Oh and what about you? Stop dwelling over unimportant matters and just relay my message to your superior!" Levi retorted.

"Who dares to speak so arrogantly?"

Just then, a voice sounded, as a voice sounded out, speaking in imperfect English.

Lee Jung-jin appeared in a suit.

"Honey, this is the guy who I was betrothed to when I was a child! Now, he's just a piece of trash!" Lauren whispered.

Lee Jung-jin glanced at Levi, with a surprise filling his eyes before sneering. "My dear, he isn't worthy of you!"

"So, you're the one who wants to drive Triple Group out of Erudia?"

Lee Jung-jin sized Levi up with a contemptuous look.

Boom, boom, boom.

The sound of thunderous footsteps shook the ground as Choi Hong-man, who was two meters tall, bearing a weight of more than two hundred pounds, appeared.

He resembled a God, as he looked down his nose at Levi and Seth.

Seth could feel the dangerous aura that Choi Hong-man was emanating, immediately explaining, "Don't get the wrong idea. We have only come to relay the message! This is our boss' decision!"

Seth didn't want to cause a conflict.

He felt that Levi was no match for Choi Hong-man, so he chose to retreat for now.

"Yes. I was the one who had said that! So why don't you try and see what would happen if you failed to deliver, on the three points I've just stated, within five days?"

Levi stared straight at Lee Jung-jin, answering his question.

Oh no!

Seth gave himself a mental slap.

Levi was stepping forth, full throttle.

Choi Hong-man took a menacing stride forward as he announced in a frosty tone, "Try and see?"
