Quentin gritted his teeth. His eyes were old and shar knife eman of hostility As the dominant figure within the security department he held control over everything that happened there However. the rise of Haylan, Quentin sensed the approaching him cker of murderous Only by eliminating Haylan or kicking him out of the corporation could Quentin secure his positions ignited within Phulipâs face darkened, and he said with deliberate emphasis. Tll give you one month. Youâll know the consequences if you fail to remove Haylan from the security department within that timeâ
Upon hearing this. Quentin shuddered and hastily replied, âI got it âFine, now get out Philip said coldly Quentin offered an apologetic nod, walked out of the room, and closed the door behind hum Philip remained seated in his office, his eyes brooding and unfathomable as if concealing his thoughts He turned on his computer and accessed Haylanâs file from the personnel department As he looked at Haylanâs photo, a chilling and sinister aura flashed through has darkened eyes After patrolling the company for a while. Haylan returned to the security department It was now lunchtime, and with only five minutes left before the end of the returned from their patrols and gathered together Quentin sat in his office, with David sitting beside him.
The two of them were whispering and seemed to be discussing something rkday, many security guards had already As Haylan entered the security department. Quentin looked up and cast him a cold glance Sensing the tension, Haylan returned the gaze.
Their eyes met!
Both of them noticed the hostility in each otherâs eyes.
Haylan pondered for a while, then stepped forward and walked into Quentinâs office. He then said in a deep voice. âMr. Hackbart, do you have a moment? Id like to talk privatelyâ
Quentin nodded and turned to David, saying. You can leave for nowâ
David stood up, cast a cold glance at Haylan, and brushed past him before leaving the office and closing the door behind Quentin sat on the couch and poured himself a cup of coffee. Then, he placed it on the table and said, âMr. Jaber, what brings you here? Do you need something?â
He emphasized Haylanâs name.
Haylan sat opposite Quentin, his expression devoid of emotion, and he spoke slowly, emphasizing each word, âLetâs not discuss work matters Instead, letâs talk about the grievances between us.â
âIf we continue to fight like this, weâll both sufferâ
âAre you afraid Quentin sneered âIm just afraid that you wonât be able to defeat me,â said Haylan Quentinâs face fell âAre you looking down on me?
âNo, donât get me wrong. I donât mean to look down on you.â
Haylan calmly replied, upping on his coffee and smiling faintly. I just want to say that both you and your uncle are trash Youâre not qualified to be my opponent âIf you insist on fighting against me and constantly sabotaging me, then youâll only be hastening your own demise.â
âTherefore, I advise you not to provoke me.â
Quentinâs sudden confrontation during todayâs meeting left Haylan feeling somewhat annoyed.
Haylan didnât want to endure backstabbing from his colleagues in the workplace, so he decided to have a serious talk with Quentin.
Bang!
Raging. Quentin slammed his coffee cup onto the table with great force.
The cup shattered into pieces, spilling coffee all over the floor.
Quentin glared fiercely at Haylan like an angry lion. âHaylan Jaber, is this your idea of a âtalkâ?â
Haylan remained unfazed. Calmly sipping his coffee, he replied, âYes, I came here to warn you. If you continue to be stubborn and oppose me, what awaits you will be an endless abyss.â
Veins bulged on Quentinâs forehead. He suddenly drew his baton and pressed it against Haylanâs face, coldly saying, âHaylan, do you think I wouldnât dare touch you now that Reign is protecting you?â
âDonât forget your father was the one who begged me on his knees to give you a chance and take you in.â
âIf I can take you in, I can also kick you out!â
âYou, the son of a pauper who is lowly as an ant. What right do you have to look down on me?â
âIâm warning you, youâd better apologize to me immediately. Or else, when I see your despicable father, Iâll beat him and make him kneel before me again!â
Haylanâs hand froze mid-air as he was about to sip his coffee. He lifted his head and stared coldly at Quentin. âI almost forgot about that. You took advantage of my father and made him kneel before you. Iâve never forgotten that incident.â âIâll give you a chance. Kneel before my father and apologize within three days. Then, I can consider going easy on you.â âOtherwise, you need to bear the consequences!â
As the Sovereign of Shadows, he couldnât reveal his true identity. He couldnât even openly tell his father his real identity. Otherwise, his enemies would target his family.
Despite his previous claims of being formidable, Charlie didnât believe him and insisted on begging Quentin and William to secure his position in the Mapleturz Group.
Charlie had lost face, and as his son, Haylan had to help him regain his reputation!
