Chapter 1984
What he could not bring himself to say was that Melvin was dead.
Solomon's eyes were red as he nodded grimly. He would have gone off to get revenge on the other party involved in the accident if he had not raised his head and spotted a young woman standing stiffly outside the intensive care unit.
He walked over and called out from behind the woman, "Susan?"
Hearing that, Susan turned around slowly.
"Uncle Solomon..." She only managed to choke out two words. After hanging on for the entire day, she finally let her emotions run free, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
When Solomon saw that, an overwhelming feeling of guilt rose in his heart. He wanted to slap himself hard on the face.
What was I thinking? I knew this was a dangerous place. Why did I still send them here? As talented as Ian is, he's just a young man in his twenties.
Finally, Solomon instructed someone to take Susan to the room next door to get some rest. After that, he left the hospital.
That night, just as the local authorities were trembling with fear, someone finally came to notify them, saying someone from the Hayes family had come looking forthem.
"Who is it? Who's here? Is it Sebastian?"Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
The informant quickly denied it, "No. It doesn't look like him. It's a middle-aged man with glasses. He looks like a mild-mannered person."
The leader of the headquarters heaved a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness it's not Sebastian. We can deal with this visitor here as long as it's not him.
Feeling much more relaxed, he instructed his subordinate to bring the visitor in.
Sure enough, as soon as the visitor stepped into the precinct, the leader saw a handsome, fair-skinned, and mild-mannered person who had a pair of gold framed glasses sitting on his nose bridge. The former looked completely threatless.
In fact, he looked like a lecturer.
"You are?"
Solomon wasted no time exchanging pleasantries. As soon as he stepped into the place, he removed the wedding ring on his finger and voiced his question expressionlessly, "Did you have something to do with today's accident?"
The leader shrugged. "Are you talking about Mr. Hayes? I'm truly sorry, but I really had nothing to do with it."
Solomon interrogated, "Then, who did it? I ordered someone to look into the truck, but the driver wasn't drunk, and the break was still in good condition. This couldn't have been an accident."
"Indeed, but this really has nothing to do with me. I'm still trying to make sense of things, too. Who on earth would dare to attack the Hayeses? Where did he get the guts to do that?"
How dare he make sarcastic remarks?
Solomon lifted his head and stared coldly at the leader. As he did so, a bloodthirsty glint that had not appeared In ages flashed across his eyes.
"Really?” he growled.
"Yes-"
Bang!
The leader had only uttered a word when a bullet went through his forehead and killed him Instantly. Everyone's jaws dropped with horror.
As they gaped at the gentleman who had taken the life of another person without an ounce of hesitance, their minds were blank from the shock.
Who is this young man? That's the leader of the customs head office he just shot. How could that young man just shoot someone without warning? Even Hugo of Tilan Palace wouldn't dare to attack such a powerful person.
Everyone screamed and attempted to run out while covering their heads.
Seeing that, Solomon gave a slight nod. Immediately, the man behind him took out his gun and fired a few shots. The person running ahead of everyone else collapsed instantly.
This is horrifying! He's not even human. He must be a devil! Didn't the informant say he's not Sebastian? Why is this man crazier than him? He's even more ruthless than Sebastian.
"W-Who are you? Do you know whom you've just killed?"
"You don't even know who I am, yet how dare you assume I don't know about this matter?" Solomon tossed his gun to the person beside him and took out a white handkerchief to clean himself.
It was as if he did not like the stench of blood.
"If I remember it correctly, Hugo was able to dominate this place only because Sinch Enterprise of Jetroina left, otherwise, he wouldn't have the chance to roam freely here," Solomon uttered each word with a murderous aura, revealing the truth of the past.
His words left everyone in the headquarters dumbfounded. In just a few seconds, all those who had been glaring at him paled.
After all, Sinch Enterprise of Jetroina was their nightmare back then.
If Hayes Corporation were to openly dominate the business industry in Astoria, Sinch Enterprise would be the Tilans empire's greatest threat in every way.
That was because Sinch Enterprise was incredibly powerful.
Not only did they have an outstanding leader, but they were also involved in both legal and underground businesses. In Jetroina, Sinch Enterprise's gang network was on par with Hugo's.
Back then, Hugo was extremely troubled by it. Even the government headquarters were terrified when they heard that Sinch Enterprise wanted to venture into their market.
They feared a war might break out between the two families.
If that were to happen, their country would become a living hell.
So, this man is the leader of Sinch Enterprise!
The people in the headquarters slumped to the ground as realization dawned on them.q
