Chapter 197 Catastrophe

Book:A King Reborn in Shadows Published:2024-6-4

“Dead man! Toilet plug!” Kamari opened his mouth wide, his two eyes bulging with astonishment. He looked in shock at the jade gourd in his hand, his whole body breaking out in a cold sweat.
This thing belonged to a dead person, and was it really used to plug those nine openings?! Even if it was an ominous object, he couldn’t believe he had been frequently putting it in his mouth and licking it for two years!
What did that mean? Did he lick shit for two years?
Kamari thought of this and felt a wave of nausea, with his stomach churning.
“Ugh… Ugh!”
He couldn’t hold it in any longer, bending over to vomit, leaving a mess on the ground.
The employees who were present and watching also felt nauseous and took a few steps back.
With the same disgusted expression, several girls with shallow stomachs also began to retch.
There were also several employees who can’t stand Kamari on a regular basis, turning around and covering their mouths to laugh secretly.
This stupid thing, he actually spent millions to buy such a thing.
Using it as a treasure every day and playing with it in his mouth, that was really blind and stupid!
Flynn also took a step back in disgust and said coldly, “Nausea is tolerable, but the most fatal thing is that this jade has been soaked in corpses for a long time.”
“Judging from its ferocity and danger, it should have been in the coffin for hundreds of years and has become an extremely vicious thing.”
“This thing, let alone bringing good luck and avoiding disasters or prolonging life, it would be lucky if it doesn’t kill you within two years!”
With such an explanation, the people around took several steps back and avoided Kamari from a distance, afraid of being contaminated by his ferocity.
Kamari’s whole body was covered in goosebumps as soon as he heard those words.
He forcefully ripped off the jade gourd hanging from his neck, as if about to throw it away.
However, his hand paused in mid-air and he immediately sneered.
“Damn it, you think my jade gourd is valuable and want to trick me into throwing it away? Pick it up yourself!”
“This guy is quite cunning. He can’t compete with me in terms of job position, and he envies my wealth.”
“To tell such lies just to save face, and still expect to deceive me for millions of dollars with a jade gourd!”
He was just scared by Flynn’s theory and after a bout of vomiting, he “sobered” up and his face immediately turned dark.
“A stinky security chief is in charge of this damn appraisal! I don’t believe you at all!”
Kamari sneered and put the jade gourd back on her body.
“Suit yourself!” Flynn said indifferently. “If you want to die, I won’t stop you. Within two days, there will be a disaster of bloodshed!”
This guy deserved to die. He was given a chance to back off, but he didn’t listen. It was no loss that he was edead now!
It was just a shame for his family; they were probably affected by the Nine Aperture Jade too.
“Do you dare curse me?” Kamari heard Flynn’s words and couldn’t help but grit his teeth in anger.
Flynn’s well-intentioned reminder had turned into an unsuccessful scam in his eyes, an attempt to continue deceiving him about the treasure.
Kamari dismissed it with disdain and even became somewhat annoyed.
“You’re just a poor bastard with no reason to refute my theory of social hierarchy. You have no face talking about jade marrow being an ominous object here!”
“I’m telling you, I can afford the treasure because I am noble!”
“I can eat one meal that costs more than your monthly salary, and I can decide your life or death with just one word!”
“People have different statuses, as do professions. You guys can only kneel down and lick my boots!”
“You may be proud of yourselves now, but don’t think this is over just because you beat me up.”
“Let me tell you something: this isn’t over! I’m going to call someone right now to come kill all of you!”
Kamari grinned smugly despite his swollen pig face; his expression was ferocious.
His rant brought everyone back to reality and made them agree with him too.
Flynn was only a security head; how could he know anything about appraising treasures? He must have made up lies on purpose just to scare Kamari.
Now that things had escalated like this, Kamari would definitely not let it go easily.
The Wong family was a big clan in Niarak; they usually kept low profiles but still belonged among the top-tier elite families. Killing Flynn would be easy for them!
Energence Pharmaceuticals had only recently reopened their factory when they encountered such troubles. Fate really wasn’t kind sometimes.
“What did I say again? Enjoying temporary pleasure won’t do any good. We’ll always have consequences for our actions! If Mr. Wong calls people from his family here by phone call, then Ms. Sharp won’t be able to save Mr. Clark either!”
“Why protect him? Mr. Wong is second-in-command at our company while Mr. Clark is only head of security department. Ms. Sharp wouldn’t even hesitate firing him.”
“That’s true! The security department ranks last among eight departments here. There are plenty of retired soldiers who work at martial arts schools around town.”
People whispered softly amongst themselves before shaking their heads regretfully.
Kamari acted arrogantly within the company so these people wanted stand on Flynn’s side. Unfortunately reality didn’t allow it though…
The outcome of this situation could only be Flynn getting fired and beaten by the Wong family. Harriet saw Kamari about to make a call and turned pale with fear, quickly stepping forward to plead, “Mr. Wong, it’s all my fault. If you want to hit someone, hit me instead. I’ll take the blame for Mr. Clark and the security team!”
If Flynn hadn’t intervened today, she would have been bullied for sure. She didn’t want Flynn and others to be implicated so she stood up and took responsibility for everything.
“This is indeed your fault, you slut!” Kamari sneered with anger in his eyes.
“If you had agreed to my demands from the beginning, I wouldn’t have lost face here!”
“But thinking that you can bear all this alone is too much self-importance!”
“I’m going to kill two birds with one stone today: beat Clark into a pulp then deal with you!”
Kamari pushed Harriet aside and pointed at Flynn while cursing, “You bastard! Your only choice now is to beg me like a dog wagging its tail whenever we meet in the future!”
“This is your last chance from me; it’s also my last mercy towards you.”
Flynn’s expression turned cold as he grabbed Kamari’s finger directly without being intimidated by his threats.
“Your intimidation means nothing to me but when I say that I will kill you, that’s real.”
Kamari screamed in pain as he knelt on the ground after hearing a crisp sound when Flynn applied pressure on his finger.
“If everyone hadn’t pleaded for mercy earlier, then I would’ve killed him already but since they did, consider yourself lucky.”
Flynn raised his other hand towards Kamari’s forehead readying himself for another attack.
“Ms. Sharp has arrived!”
Just then someone exclaimed causing silence across the entire parking lot.
Click-clack sounds of high heels tapping against concrete filled everyone’s ears.
Rose walked briskly over wearing her green long coat over her white shirt.
Her coat was tied around her waist accentuating her slim legs which were covered by tight-fitting pants reaching just below her knees.
From head to toe, there was not a single flaw in her figure. Her face was flawless, as if it were the masterpiece of God himself.
However, her demeanor was too cold, leaving those who saw her with nothing but reverence and no desire for any impure thoughts.
“Ms. Sharp’s arrival means that Mr. Clark is about to resign. Ah! He hasn’t even warmed up his seat as the head before being fired; his temper really got the best of him!”
“Mr. Clark is straightforward and doesn’t understand how to be smooth; now he knows what it’s like to suffer!”
“It’s good to do good deeds, but you also have to consider your own abilities! Mr. Wong was beaten by Mr. Clark like that; Ms. Sharp will definitely have some explaining to do!”
The people present cleared a path as the atmosphere instantly became tense on site.
