Flynn shook his head upon hearing Jennifer’s words. He forced a smile and said, “You misunderstood. I never said your fate would be the same as hers.”
Thinking that Flynn was backing down, Jennifer smirked and looked even more proud.
“It’s good that you know because I’ve changed. You have no power to determine my destiny!”
“Do you feel powerless now? You want to hit me but dare not?”
The people from the Resource Bureau laughed coldly, appearing relaxed.
“He must be shocked to see Miss Parry rise so quickly. He can’t accept such a gap for a while.”
“This is the typical ebb and flow of fortune. Once arrogant, soon to be embarrassed.”
“When he used to boss around Miss Parry and ignore her, he probably didn’t expect today’s outcome! He must be regretting it!”
Jennifer clung to Leonardo’s arm, overflowing with happiness.
On the day Flynn went to Club Apex, Jennifer felt embarrassed and annoyed, hastily leaving Niarak.
She found refuge in a bar in Pelens and encountered Leonardo.
Sparks flew between them, and Jennifer used all her charm to conquer Leonardo.
From that moment on, Jennifer knew it was the highlight of her life.
The Pearce family, Orion, Flynn, and all the elites of Niarak would bow their heads before her!
Because she was Leonardo’s girlfriend!
That alone was enough!
“Thank you, Mr. Spencer!” Jennifer kissed Leonardo’s cheek in front of Flynn, being arrogant and unruly.
Leonardo slapped Jennifer’s lifted buttocks hard, using considerable force, and said to her, “Jennifer, you’re still too subtle. Keep slapping. Today, we not only need to render him helpless but also make him despair!”
“Yes, Mr. Spencer, watch closely. I’ll use my high heels to crush his hand!” Jennifer released Leonardo’s arm and walked gracefully towards Flynn.
“Kneel!” She pointed her delicate finger towards the ground, raised her proud head, and commanded Flynn, “Kneel and admit that you can never match me.”
“Kneel and beg for my forgiveness!”
“Kneel and repent for your arrogance!”
“Kneel and…”
As Jennifer was proudly speaking, she saw Flynn raise his hand and deliver a resounding slap.
“Smack!”
The sound of the slap echoed, and Jennifer was sent flying.
Like a spinning top, she twirled in the air for seven or eight rounds before crashing onto Neymar’s desk.
The teacup’s contents spilled all over Jennifer’s face, tea leaves scattered on her neck, and her right cheek turned a horrifying blood-red.
Flynn wore a disdainful and disgusted expression as he coldly said, “What’s wrong with all of you? Always thinking of yourselves, not letting others finish speaking before chattering away. It’s giving me a headache!”
“Let me say it again: You and Virginia have different meanings. Your fate will be even more tragic!”
Silence fell over the scene.
No one could have imagined that Flynn would dare to take action against five guns and be so fierce as to send Leonardo’s girlfriend flying five meters!
Is this guy crazy? He hit Leonardo’s girlfriend in public!
Leonardo was also stunned. He never thought Flynn would dare to lay a hand on his girlfriend.
Scarlet shook her head.
When Jennifer raised her hand to hit Callie, she had anticipated this outcome. Flynn was not an easy person to deal with and he definitely wouldn’t take this lying down.
“You motherfucker, how dare you hit my girlfriend!” Leonardo glared at Jennifer’s swollen cheek in anger.
Flynn heard these words and his face turned cold. With one swift step forward he stood in front of Jennifer and slapped her again without hesitation.
Just as Jennifer was being helped up from the ground, she was struck hard on the right cheek once more causing blood to flow instantly from her nose.
She was dizzy while experiencing mild concussion; the pain almost made her pass out completely.
Flynn looked at Leonardo calmly, “Not only do I dare hit your woman but if you don’t apologize, I’ll press your face into the ground too.”
The resource bureau staff were shocked into silence.
“This guy must be mentally ill! Does he really think we won’t shoot him dead?”
“Asshole! If he keeps provoking Mr. Spencer today, then even God himself can’t save him!”
“I don’t think we need any tough tactics here; he won’t listen if we talk nicely either. Everyone back off and let Mr. Howe deal with this trash!”
Scarlet saw everyone stepping back, and Jedidiah and others approached with guns, instantly feeling a chill run down her spine.
In this situation, no one in Niarak could save them, not even Travis.
Five guns pointed at them, with only four meters of distance in the narrow office space.
No matter how skilled Flynn was, it seemed unlikely that he could evade them!
“Mr. Howe, my life was given by Mr. Clark. If you want to kill him, you have to get past me first!” Callie stood in front of Flynn once again.
Looking at the slender girl before him, Flynn couldn’t help but feel moved.
He knew that if Callie didn’t like him, she wouldn’t have stood up so decisively.
Jedidiah was momentarily stunned.
The Pearce family was no match for the Spencer family, and naturally, he had to stand with Leonardo. But as a fellow Niarak resident, Jedidiah didn’t dare to harm Callie easily and was at a loss for what to do.
Jedidiah commanded Flynn, “Flynn, you’ve offended someone you shouldn’t have. Don’t struggle anymore!”
“Even Mr. Richardson won’t stand up for you today. Quickly kneel on the ground with your head down, or I’ll shoot you!”
Flynn, without lifting his brow, said, “Jedidiah, right? Considering your father helped me find clues, I’ll give you a chance. Take your men and leave here, or you’ll regret it!”
Scarlet saw Jedidiah cocking the gun and panicked. She quickly said, “Mr. Howe, Flynn does know the Governor. Don’t believe me? Call Mr. Howe and ask!”
She knew that even if Flynn killed the King of Poison, it didn’t guarantee his safety, but at least it could temporarily stall Jedidiah!
If Emanuel knew about this, he would likely detain Flynn first, awaiting the Governor’s decision for caution’s sake.
That way, Flynn still had a glimmer of hope.
“Mr. Spencer, my face really hurts! When he hits me, it’s like hitting your face!” Jennifer, seeing Jedidiah hesitating, began bombarding him with sugar-coated bullets.
“Jedidiah, you’re such a dumbass!”
“This trash is so arrogant. If you don’t shoot him, are you planning to treat him like your father?” Leonardo was very dissatisfied with Jedidiah’s behavior. He snatched the gun from Jedidiah’s hand and said to Flynn, “This filthy trash keeps pushing my limits. Killing you today is just self-defense!”
“As for accidentally injuring members of the Pearce family, they can only accept their fate!”
After saying this, Leonardo pulled the trigger!
“Bang!”
A deafening gunshot echoed.
The bullet whizzed through the air.
Everyone’s faces changed drastically, knowing that Flynn’s life was hanging by a thread.
However, a bizarre scene unfolded.
In the moment the bullet left the barrel, Flynn wrapped his arm around Callie’s waist with one hand and pressed the other hand on her shoulder.
Both of them bent down simultaneously.
“Swoosh!”
The bullet flew past the two of them and embedded itself into the wall.
“He… He actually dodged the bullet!” Everyone was dumbfounded witnessing this scene.
Leonardo was also stunned, his face filled with rage. He aimed the gun at Flynn again and said, “You escaped by sheer luck. I don’t believe the next shot won’t kill you!”
