“Too audacious, to actually want to break Mr. Head’s leg in front of the city mayor? Is he trying to embarrass the mayor?”
“Does he really think the mayor won’t do anything about it? In my opinion, the mayor will give him a taste of his own medicine!”
“This trash thinks too highly of himself. The mayor bringing people over here will show him who’s boss!”
Flynn sneered.
He finally understood why Orion greeted Blaze but was still ignored.
Under a big tree, one can find shade. With the Richardson family as his backing, Blaze already felt like he was above everyone else in Niarak!
No matter what time period it is, merchants cannot compete with officials.
Orion may be wealthy but he was just a businessman.
Blaze may not have as much wealth but he firmly grasped onto the Richardson family as his backing. It was understandable for him to act so arrogantly with such support behind him.
“The mayor is here!”
Someone shouted and instantly, the room fell silent.
People unconsciously made way for him.
The sound of leather shoes tapping on the ground could be heard along with anger in its urgency.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses and looking very serious appeared at the door accompanied by several people wearing municipal uniforms behind him.
“Mr. Richardson has arrived! You’re so arrogant kid – keep going! I want to see how audacious you can get!”
Blaze looked extremely pleased while Flynn turned his head towards the door expressionless and said, “Mr. Richardson, your son’s dog can walk sideways through Niarak without any trouble now. Maybe you should discipline it.”
In an instant, Travis’ gaze met Flynn’s and his furrowed brows relaxed immediately.
He slightly opened his mouth looking surprised; stunned even.
Damn… why is this guy here?
“What?! This kid really doesn’t value life huh? The Mayor has arrived yet he still smiles without fear or worry? He doesn’t even look scared despite making Mayor Richardson angry enough that his eyes are bulging out of their sockets!”
“I’ve seen stupid people before but never someone this stupid! After hitting Bryant, he still speaks with the mayor this way. I can’t imagine how he’ll die later on.”
Upon hearing Flynn speak like that, Blaze was also shocked and angrily retorted, “Even if I’m just a dog, I am still part of Mayor Richardson’s household!”
“You, a lowly commoner, dare to hit me? You’re hitting the face of the mayor!”
“Kneel down! Kneel for the mayor!”
Flynn’s face turned cold as he grabbed Blaze by his ankle and squeezed hard.
Crack!
A crisp sound came from Blaze’s ankle, followed by his earth-shattering screams.
“He’s gone crazy, completely crazy! Not only did this guy talk big but he also acted in front of the mayor. He deserves to die. He deserves to die!”
“This kid has already crippled Mr. Head’s legs and testicles at Rhinowares Group and even caused trouble again at the hospital…”
Everyone was terrified watching this scene unfold and took a deep breath.
Bryant saw Flynn acting so recklessly and shouted at Travis, “Dad, this madman deserves to die. You must teach him a lesson today or else he won’t know who is ruling Niarak!”
“Shut up!” Travis slapped Bryant across his face, leaving him dazed.
Everyone was stunned watching this happen.
What happened?
Wasn’t that slap supposed to be on Flynn’s face?
Why was he punishing his son instead?
They stared in disbelief at Travis trying to understand what just happened.
Travis looked at Bryant’s deformed hand then exhaled heavily through his nostrils before saying coldly, “You little devil always causes trouble because you think you can get away with it due to my status. Is my life not complicated enough?”
Flynn was a distinguished guest of the Pearce family who had agreed yesterday to take Katrina as an apprentice for half her training under Roman – the Medicine King himself!
A person like him had seen countless things in life with top-notch medical skills that could make connections with high-ranking officials easily; even those holding state-level positions were likely acquaintances of his. As mayor himself, Travis couldn’t afford offending someone like him easily yet today his son provoked Flynn into action!
Upon hearing Travis’ words, everyone froze in shock.
When his son got beaten up like that, how can he not punish Flynn?
Bryant looked shocked too but also aggrieved stuttering, “Dad… what are you doing? I got beaten up.”
Travis ignored Bryant entirely as he walked towards Flynn with a smile on his face, “Mr. Clark, I’m sorry my incompetent son has offended you.”
“I never expected such audacity from your little devil,” said Flynn calmly.
“Your son and Mr. Head are quite impressive though. They offered me 1 million dollars for my wife’s land,” added Flynn nonchalantly.
“I won’t sell, and they’re offering to buy it for free, and they want my wife to accompany Mr. Head on a week-long trip abroad!”
Travis’s mind exploded with a loud bang. Recently, he had been utilizing all available resources to climb up the ladder. The Pearce family and Flynn were among the connections he had made. Now, his son and Blaze dared to strong-arm, even insisting on Flynn’s wife accompanying them on a trip abroad?
“Bryant! I told you not to get involved in business matters with our family’s influence. Are you ignoring my words?” Travis shouted.
“As an official of Niarak people, I have always served the people wholeheartedly. What are you doing?”
“You act arrogantly all day long and do evil deeds, ruining my reputation that I’ve worked so hard for,” Travis replied angrily before kicking Bryant off the bed.
He then grabbed Bryant by the collar and dragged him in front of Flynn while yelling at him, “Apologize to Mr. Clark!”
“And you!” Travis turned his gaze towards Blaze who trembled in fear.
“Mr. Clark, I’m sorry for being blindfolded by greed. I will immediately revise our contract,” Blaze cried as he realized he had offended someone he shouldn’t have messed with; he regretted not listening when Emanuel warned him earlier.
“I’m sorry Mr. Clark. I was wrong. I won’t dare again.” Bryant apologized meekly from where he lay on the ground.
Everyone present was stunned by this scene as these two arrogant individuals who never cared about anyone else were now apologizing profusely to someone from the little Kaur family!
Remembering how fierce they had been towards Flynn just moments ago made everyone shiver in fear before quickly disappearing without a trace within minutes!
Flynn glanced at both men before saying casually, “Alright then, hurry up and draft up that contract because I’m busy.”
Blaze and Bryant lowered their heads after hearing this. They had intended to manipulate the Ponocord Bay land deal with the Kaur family for their own gain.
In the end, they gained nothing, endured a beating, and ended up losing 4 million for nothing. A few vulgar words cost them an additional 1 million. Breaking the window of a Volkswagen Passat cost another 2 million. Smashing the Volkswagen Passat, worth around 20 thousand, incurred an additional 1 million.
They were in deep trouble!
Not only could they not get angry, but they also had to compose and sign a contract with a smile, presenting it willingly.
Flynn took the document without even looking back once before leaving abruptly from the hospital room!
“Mr. Clark, I entrust my daughter to you now. From now on, we are family and if you need anything, just let me know!” Travis chased after him and laughed.
Travis knew Flynn’s skills well enough to understand that even teaching Katrina a few moves would benefit her for a lifetime.
“Got it,” Flynn replied without looking back as he left the hospital.
As soon as he got in his car, Rose called him.
“I did a thorough analysis of Davies Pharmaceuticals and had someone investigate the area. The geomancy is definitely off.”
“The geomancy master said there’s something underground to the north of the factory.”
