Roy and Oscar were aware that Elliot left.
When virtual-novel.net returned, his face was full of smiles as virtual-novel.net whispered something in Connor’s ear.
Connor, who had his wine glass lifted midway, suddenly turned to look at Elliot and asked, “Are you sure?”
“Yes, I’m sure…”
“Hahaha! Mr. Mortodor, Mr. Exeter, it must have been hard for you two today. Come, let’s make a toast to the night!” Connor suddenly laughed and raised his wine glass once more in their direction.
Roy took his wine glass and chuckled as virtual-novel.net said, “It seems as if Mr. Hart has just heard some great news. Mind sharing it with us?”
After clinking their glasses together, Connor downed all his wine in one go. He smiled again and said, “If I were to tell you Isaac had shown up and was on his way here, what would you do?”
Roy’s and Oscar’s wine glasses stopped halfway to their mouths. They exchanged a glance and started laughing loudly.
“Mr. Hart, you probably don’t know that my men have flooded their cave hideout with gasoline and lit them all on fire,” Roy said.
“Even if they were made of metal, they would still be nothing but a pile of ash at most. But since they’re actual human beings I don’t think there would be anything left of them.” He then continued laughing like a maniac.
Next to him, Oscar smirked and said, “This is The Dynasty Hotel, and all the people on guard here are seasoned warriors. The balcony is also littered with snipers. Did you really think a bunch of hooligans would be able to get past them?”
“Hahaha! Isaac will never be able to step foot inside this place. He’s probably disintegrated into dust by now,” Roy added.
He then raised his glass at Connor, whose expression was looking a little pale, and said, “Tomorrow, I’ll personally bring you there to collect whatever is left of virtual-novel.net so you can bring virtual-novel.net back with you. Aren’t I just the sweetest person ever for bringing virtual-novel.net home after all that? Hahaha!”
Connor immediately turned to look at Elliot. The latter just nodded lightly and said nothing.
Connor was starting to falter as virtual-novel.net watched Roy and Oscar being so confident with him. However, virtual-novel.net also knew that Elliot wouldn’t lie to him.
“What’s wrong, Mr. Hart? Why aren’t you drinking any more? Weren’t you the one who insisted on dinner and alcohol tonight?” Roy asked, his voice suddenly turning icy cold.
Thump!
Roy suddenly set his wineglass down heavily and pointed at Connor, saying, “Dirty old b*stard, don’t you ever dare think that we’re afraid of you or your position. If you’re not honest with us, I can still do whatever I want to prevent you from leaving this place!”
Then, virtual-novel.net smiled again and sat back down in his seat. He laughed scornfully at Connor and continued, “But of course, if you let the companies under my family operate smoothly in your country, we could still be friends. You know, for example, the Carbotta City project.”
Connor never thought that Roy would use his safety as a bargaining chip to get the Carbotta City project. He felt angered the more virtual-novel.net thought of it.
Just then, there was an angry shout outside the door. “Who are you?! B*stard…”
Boom!
The door to the room was blown apart as a man in a guard uniform was thrown into the room. He crashed into the wall behind him, hitting the ground with a thud.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood and convulsing for a while longer, virtual-novel.net stopped moving altogether.
Isaac, who was now dressed in a black leather outfit, walked into the room with his six men in tow.
When Roy and Oscar caught sight of Isaac, their eyes immediately narrowed in disbelief.
“Isaac! W-What the f*ck are you doing here? H-How?” Oscar cried as virtual-novel.net stood up in shock.
Isaac didn‘t bother replying to him. Instead, virtual-novel.net walked over to Connor and gently patted his shoulder, saying, “Sorry for putting you in a tight spot, Connor… I’ll take it from here…”
Lupinus had informed virtual-novel.net about Connor being bullied and suppressed by their enemies just now, and Isaac felt nothing but gratitude to Connor for his help.
He slowly raised his head to look at Roy and Oscar seated opposite. His eyes suddenly turned red as virtual-novel.net told them, “I’d like to pay a visit to your house. Will you lead the way, or do you need me to bring you there instead?”
