Walter had wanted to break the coffee table with his fist, but he failed. He only felt pain in his fist!
He could only admit defeat.
He looked at his hand and cursed resentfully, “What the fuck is this?”
No one answered, everyone just took it as an angry remark.
“What the fuck is? Didn’t you hear me asking?”
Looking at Walter, the receptionist who was scared and trembling hurriedly came over. She said, “Mr. Peters, you asked for this table to be imported from abroad. That is glass of superior quality and it’s said to be unbreakable!”
Upon hearing this, Walter’s face turned livid. This is fucked up!
“Are you sure I asked for it?” Walter asked, a little confused.
The receptionist nodded her head and said, “Yes, you did, Mr. Peters.”
“Pfft!” Just when Walter had nowhere to release his anger, there was laughter.
He looked up and saw a bodyguard who had bruises on his face.
It was the bodyguard he sent to protect Asher, his son. The bruises were Kayden’s doing.
“What the fuck are you laughing at? Are you laughing at me?” Walter asked coldly.
Seeing the angry Walter, that guy hurriedly explained, “Boss, you misunderstand. How dare I laugh at you? I… I just thought of something fun.”
“Something fun?” Walter instantly pulled a pistol from inside the inner pocket of his coat.
When the pistol was pointed at the guy, his whole body instantly went weak.
“I mean it, boss! My wife gave birth to our baby!”
“Fuck you! You were obviously laughing at me! I saw you’ve been snickering!”
Walter cursed angrily before he fired three shots!
Soon, three holes appeared on the guy’s chest and blood kept running out of him.
The guy died without even being able to say his last words!
How cold-blooded!
That was Walter!
Having been in this business for so long, killing people had long since been normal for him.
He spat on the guy and viciously cursed, “Now, you should be very happy in hell. You fucking caused my son to be beaten up and you had the audacity to laugh at me?”
“I gave you death!”
“Drag out his body and clean up the mess!” He withdrew his gun and said to the shivering waiters.
Killing a person was no different for him than slaughtering a pig!
The waiters didn’t dare to say a word and hurriedly did as they were told.
After retrieving his gun, Walter said to the waitress beside him, “Go! Replace it tomorrow! Damn it! How can the glass be so hard? It hurt my damn hand.”
The receptionist’s face turned pale, and she nodded her head with a face full of nervousness and said, “Yes, Mr. Peters!”
“Boss, what are you in a hurry for?” A man sitting beside Walter suddenly moved and spoke.
It was a fat man with a tall and imposing figure. He weighed at least two hundred pounds and looked like a mountain sitting on that single sofa.
This man was George, the man who claimed to be the most powerful man in Vernon’s underworld!
George worked for Walter.
In the past, when George was still a nobody, he was led by Walter step by step to where he was this day. Even if George was so powerful today, he still called Walter his boss!
That was the rule in this business.
Now George controlled most of the underground’s organizations with a rising reputation while Walter was a businessman. Yet George still asked Walter for help with any problems he encountered.
So, Walter’s position in Vernon was high indeed!
“George, what do you mean by that?” Walter asked with a grim look.
George squirmed his obese body and gave a laugh with a confident look, “I just don’t think there’s any need to be in such a rush. Since that guy who hurt your son has come to Vernon, trouble will follow him!”
“With your prestige in Vernon, do you think it would be a difficult task to find him?”
“I know what you mean! But I have to settle this matter as soon as possible. After all, it was my son who was beaten up, and in front of so many people on a plane. People talk, and if this gets out, what will people out there think of me?”
Walter looked at George excitedly and said, “People will say I was scared of that guy!”
George laughed, “Don’t worry, boss. I’ll fix it for you! I promise no one out there will dare say a word about it.”
Walter looked up and said with an air of entitlement, “Of course, you have to fix it for me! Do you think I was going to do it myself? In Vernon, who doesn’t know you work for me?”
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something else and added, “Wait! This matter has to be resolved by myself personally! I haven’t gotten my hands down in illegal business for so many years, some people might already be doubting me.”
“I have to do it myself and tell those who doubt me that I, Walter Peters, still have the power!”
Walter looked confident when he said this.
George’s expression changed slightly, and then he asked, ”Boss, you haven’t done things for so many years! Didn’t you say that you wanted to quit this business? I can do these dirty work for you!”
Walter sneered, then caressed the jadeite ring on his thumb, his eyes sharp as he said, “George, I’ve heard about what happened the other day at the Sandrea Hotel. If I don’t make a move, my enemies will come to my door. By then, I may not even know when someone might try to assassinate me.”
It was pretty obvious. He meant George didn’t give enough intimidation.
In the underground world, that was the rule! If you can’t intimidate your enemies, your enemies will come to you!
They might come for revenge at any time!
“Boss! That was an accident! If it wasn’t for the John family’s sudden appearance, I definitely wouldn’t have…”
“Enough!” Walter raised his hand to interrupt George’s words and said coldly, “Nothing is the reason for your failure! You have failed and knelt, haven’t you?”
“Boss, please give me another chance!” George stood up from the couch.
