Upon stepping outside, Constance Brighton felt her head was somewhat groggy. She sat in the passenger seat, rubbing her forehead with her hand and murmuring, “Why, why is it like this?”
She had sought help from the biggest backer she could find this time, Mr. Wraith, whose words could shake the entire Stillwater! But still!
Even he had felt fear.
He even asked her just how much trouble they had gotten themselves into!
Who exactly was this Mr. X? He managed to cause such fear in Mr. Wraith!? It was simply inconceivable! She had been in Stillwater for so many years and had never seen anyone who could make Mr. Wraith say such things.
Constance Brighton’s heart was in turmoil.
For the first time, she experienced something called fear.
It was well known that she had always played men like a fiddle, and no men could be immune to her beauty. But to Mr. X, she seemed to be nothing.
He had rejected her, the richest woman of Stillwater, the woman with the strongest desire to conquer.
There was someone in this world who could actually reject her.
This fact had kept her from recovering her wits, and today she was even more surprised.
“Ma’am, where should we go now?”
The driver cautiously asked.
“Go to South Shore to find Jimmy.”
After a moment of pause, Constance Brighton opened her eyes, a cold light flashing in them. Who was she? She was Constance Brighton, the head of the largest family in Stillwater, and she wouldn’t be defeated so easily.
“Yes, ma’am.”
The driver’s heart skipped a beat.
He hadn’t expected that they would end up seeking out that guy, Jimmy Sutton.
Jimmy Sutton was a rather famous name in South Shore. In Stillwater, not all the forces were under Lamonia’s control. In South Shore, there was another force, led by Jimmy Sutton, who also owned a security company. He was involved in some shady dealings such as murder and arson, a complete and utter killer.
Ordinary people were very reluctant to deal with this man.
One reason was his price. He was famous for his big appetite. The second reason was his bad reputation. He liked to torture his victims before killing them.
Once they got involved with him, their reputation would stink to high heaven.
However, given their current situation, they couldn’t afford to care about that anymore.
Three hours later.
The car arrived at Shield Security.
“It seems quite solid.”
After getting out of the car, Constance Brighton glanced at the sign with a hint of mockery in her eyes. It just looked solid, but in reality, it was stained with who knew how much blood.
Jimmy Sutton was no ordinary man.
He had managed to carve out a territory in Stillwater and had the power to confront Lamonia head-on, which was enough proof of his strength.
“I am Constance Brighton, the head of the Brighton family. I’d like to see your boss.”
The two security guards at the entrance saw Constance Brighton and swallowed their saliva. They had never seen such a tempting woman in their lives. However, upon hearing her name, they shuddered.
Unlike Isadora Brighton.
Constance Brighton’s most significant trait was that every man who had shared her bed ended up dead, without exception.
It was said that she enjoyed killing during passionate moments.
“I’ll go in.”
“Cut the crap, stay here, I’ll go in.”
The two security guards almost got into a fight for a chance to leave the place, but in the end, both went in to report. Soon, one guard returned with a frightened face, “Ma’am… please.”
Constance Brighton then walked towards the interior but stopped in front of the guard, coldly saying, “Not every man is qualified to share my bed.”
What made you even think that way?
Those who were qualified to share her bed were naturally elites. She had taste too.
Having said that, she walked inside.
“Oh my God.”
However, after she left, the guard collapsed on the ground, letting out a sigh of relief.
He couldn’t help it.
Even though she had said that, he was still afraid of this woman.
Upon entering the hall, there was a fierce-looking man sitting on the sofa, with two pretty girls massaging him, a look of enjoyment on his face.
“Jimmy Sutton, I have a good deal for you. Are you interested?” Constance Brighton asked directly.
“A good deal? How good is it?”
Jimmy Sutton slowly opened his eyes, scanned Constance Brighton’s enchanting figure, and a hint of greed flickered across his gaze.
“Kill Mr. X, and once he’s dead, I’m all yours.”
Constance Brighton noticed Jimmy Sutton’s look and spoke bluntly.
Now, Isadora Brighton’s problem was that Mr. X.
All she needed to do was to kill Mr. X.
This was the most direct method, but also the most dangerous one. Mr. X always looked so dangerous to her.
That’s why she sought out Jimmy Sutton. He was good at such dirty work; as long as he got paid, perhaps he would kill off his entire family. However, he had a bad habit. If he met a beautiful woman, he would do something terrible before killing.
Even children were not exempt.
They were just such a gang of conscienceless thugs.
“Mr. X? Interesting, interesting. This guy has been in Stillwater for less than a week, and the largest family in Stillwater can’t handle him, and you actually need my help now.”
Jimmy Sutton let out a mocking laugh.
“I came here not to listen to your nonsense. Are you taking this deal or not?” Constance Brighton frowned.
“Of course, I never refuse money.”
Jimmy Sutton waved his hand, dismissing the two pretty girls. Then, his eyes shifted and said, “However, this Mr. X has a notorious reputation. He has wiped out the Winfield family, the Meyer family, and the Holland family. He’s powerful, and his home is heavily guarded. It’s not something a small fry like me can handle.”
“What do you want?”
Constance Brighton knew that this man wouldn’t be afraid.
For money, he would dare to do anything.
This talk was just to ask for more money.
“You have to pay me more.” Jimmy Sutton rubbed his hands together.
“Am I not enough?”
Constance Brighton revealed a blooding stirring seductive smile.
“To be honest, Constance Brighton, I’d love to take you hard on the bed. But I don’t dare. I’ve been in Stillwater for so long, and this is the only thing I don’t dare to do. All the men who have been involved with you are dead, and I don’t want to be the next one.”
Jimmy Sutton waved his hand, scoffing.
He was able to amass such power because he wasn’t a fool. Constance Brighton was a true avenger. Before he dared to share her bed, he had to buy his own coffin.
“You’re afraid too?”
Constance Brighton also let out a cold laugh, seemingly mocking Jimmy Sutton, and then asked, “What do you want?”
“Everyone knows what Mr. X can do, and I’m just a small fry. For this job, I’ll definitely lose many brothers. It’s not too much to ask for a little more. Maybe, as an appetizer, I want five companies under the Brighton family, plus fifty billion as soup. Then comes the main course, fifteen percent of the Brighton Group’s shares. I’m going up against the notorious Mr. X, I hope you don’t think I’m asking for too much.”
Jimmy Sutton squinted his eyes and smiled.
Notorious? He was just asking for more money. He had been in Stillwater for so many years, and even Lamonia couldn’t do anything to him, let alone a mysterious Mr. X.
It was just a rumor, after all.
