Book:Fallen Heir Rising Published:2024-6-5

Reuben Austin said lightly, “I hope everyone will have more confidence in our Spicurity Group.”
“We will never resort to dirty tricks. Every employee who enters our Group has come in based on their own abilities.”
“Alright, everyone, you can disperse now.”
Reuben Austin’s tone was stern, his gaze sweeping across the room. “Those who have been accepted, we will notify you of your start time privately.”
The crowd dispersed one after another.
This farce, in their mind, was nothing more than a minor episode.
Charlotte also packed up her things and walked out of the examination room, unable to suppress her excitement on her face. After all, she came to the interview with the mindset of taking a chance.
But she actually succeeded.
This greatly exceeded her expectations.
How could she not be happy?
Out of consideration for Quentin’s instructions, Reuben Austin didn’t dare to have too much contact with Mrs. Holland. He just watched her leave and then breathed a sigh of relief.
In the reception hall of Spicurity Group, Quentin sat there and saw Charlotte coming down from the elevator. His tightly knit brows relaxed a bit as he asked, “How did the interview go?”
“Not bad,” Charlotte smiled brightly, “I really passed.”
“Awesome!”
Quentin didn’t hesitate to praise her.
“Was there any unexpected situation?” Quentin asked again.
Charlotte was about to tell Quentin about what happened in the examination room, but then she remembered her promise to Reuben Austin and shook her head.
“It’s okay, everything went smoothly.”
“That’s good.” Quentin smiled and took her hand. “Let’s go to school to pick up our little one.”
Today is Friday.
In the afternoon, it’s time for the parent meeting at Sloburg Kindergarten. Quentin and Charlotte still had time to rush over.
At this moment, outside Sloburg Kindergarten, luxury cars were parked in front of the gate.
The scene was extremely grand.
Perhaps, within the entire Stresall, only Sloburg Kindergarten could have such a scene.
Middle-aged men and women, dressed in suits and looking glamorous, walked hand in hand into the school gate, appearing very harmonious.
After all, today’s parent meeting is an opportunity for them and their children to save face. How could they easily let it go?
Here, many prominent figures from the military, political, and business circles are present. They greet each other with smiles on weekdays, but secretly compete against each other.
They compare positions, incomes, and children, all of which are their advantages for showing off.
Therefore, those who came to attend the parent meeting at Sloburg Kindergarten today were carefully dressed up just to save face.
At this moment, inside a disused storeroom in Sloburg Kindergarten, a man in a security uniform opened the door with a key and walked in.
Inside the room, several men suddenly looked up, reaching for their waists with their hands and staring at the door intently.
However, when they saw the newcomer, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
“Teeny, how’s it going?” A man with a crew cut slowly stood up and said, “Isn’t the parent meeting about to start? We’ve been waiting here for a whole day and night. We’ve been lying in ambush here, relying on the information you provided. Don’t let us down.”
Others also turned their gaze to Teeny.
Teeny, dressed in a security uniform, grinned and said, “You can trust me when I do things.”
“Now that almost everyone is here outside, our plan can start. Those so-called high-ranking officials are now showing off arrogantly. Little do they know that danger is imminent.”
The man with the crew cut said solemnly, “We brothers have fought and survived on the mercenary battlefield. We’ve seen all kinds of big scenes.”
“But damn it, after returning to the country, our skills are useless. I’m not willing to accept it!”
“If we succeed this time, we won’t have to worry for the rest of our lives!”
“These guys have a lot of money. If we take some from them, it’ll be enough for us to live comfortably for the rest of our lives…”
“Teeny, thanks to you being inside, otherwise, we wouldn’t have received this information. After the deed is done, we will definitely reward you fairly!”
Teeny smiled, “I’ve long been fed up with these self-righteous bastards!”
“Damn it, if it were overseas, seeing their faces, I’d just shoot them right away!”
“This time, it’s their bad luck to fall into my hands. Since they’re all here today, they’ll all be in trouble. Let’s make a fortune out of them!”
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
Their boss said lightly, “These trash have been in high positions for too long and have become very timid. They’ll definitely be willing to spend money to avoid disaster.”
“As long as we have weapons in hand, I don’t believe any of them would dare to gamble with their lives!”
“After this is done, we’ll leave directly and live freely abroad.”
The others nodded fiercely.
They had been planning this action for almost half a month.
“Alright.”
Teeny threw them a cloth bag, “Weapons are in here. Remember, when the time comes, I’ll find a way to pick you up!”
The boss opened the cloth bag, revealing a mouthful of gleaming white teeth. “You tell me, how much are those guys’ lives worth?”
