Expert Down The Mountain by Summer
Chapter 10
These two were ruthless and had wanted to kill him. He could not just let them go.
He must figure out who the mastermind was and kill that person. Otherwise, it would simply be too troublesome if this happened time and again.
‘Mr. Frank is right. The city is full of complicated people, and they’re dangerous to boot.’
Even after Cyrus caught up to the fleeing duo, they did not notice him. He just kept on following them until he entered a five-star hotel called Ember Hotel.
“Looks like the mastermind is in the hotel,” Cyrus mumbled and entered the building.
……
A plump man in his forties sat in the VIP room located high up in the hotel. He had a number of rings on his fingers, and he was sitting on the couch right in the middle of the room.
The man was staring at a person’s photo on his phone, and that person in question was Cyrus.
“Heh… And here I thought that Wade Gardner found his daughter a bodyguard, but he’s just a country bumpkin from a poor mountain village.”
Disdain flickered in the man’s eyes. He then deleted the photo and put his phone by his side.
The man was Marino Hunt, and he was the most powerful man among all who dabbled in the gray market in Fliton City.
Behind him stood the famous Haco Corporation of Fliton City.
Beside him were two men who were among the group that attacked Korah last night. They also happened to be Kevin, the leader of the group, and his right-hand man.
His two other subordinates were sent to attack Cyrus.
“Then, someone else must have attacked my group last night,” Kevin said with a frown.
Marino snorted. “Most likely. Wade is a sly fox, and I must admit, he’s careful.”
“Mr. Hunt, Mr. Robinson called. He told us that failure is not an option this time.” Sitting on the couch next to Marino’s was a gentle-looking, bespectacled man. He said these words with a stern expression.
Marino nodded. “Of course. If we fail again, I will personally apologize to Mr. Robinson!”
As he was talking, someone knocked on the door. The bespectacled man got up and opened the door.
