Chapter 397 Intimidation

Soldier instantly felt a sense of dread at the sight of Daniel, an unfamiliar face. What was Beauty's

intention in bringing this unsophisticated country bumpkin here? Could he possibly be here to take

Soldier's place? The thought sparked resentment in Soldier's heart.

He glared at Daniel with hostility and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm the guy Beauty hired to clean up your mess. Where’s that Tiger King? Take me to it, and I’ll

help you deal with the situation. It's just a little cat, isn't it? All you big equipped men can't handle it?

I wonder if that big cat scared you out of your wits or what."

Daniel's comment was merely a light-hearted joke, with no intention to offend. However, Soldier felt

insulted and demeaned with an acute sense of indignation.

"You, country bumpkin, are as thin as a monkey and clearly weak. You wouldn't last even a bite

from that Tiger King. If you get anywhere near it and it so much as growls at you, I bet you'd wet

your pants!"

"I’m weak? Does that mean you're strong?"

"Country bumpkin, since you've come all this way, let's shake hands," Soldier offered, extending his

hand, planning to give Daniel a rough lesson.

"Sure, big guy!"

Daniel replied and reached out to grasp the proffered hand. The moment they touched, Soldier

began to exert significant pressure. His grip was so strong that it could crush stones and deform

metal – that was the extent of Soldier's strength. That was the power of a top commando.

Beauty knew about Soldier's capabilities. After all, she had hired him at a high price after rigorous

assessments. During those assessments, Soldier had managed to break a steel bar ten centimeters

in diameter with his bare hands. He was indeed formidable.

"Be careful, Soldier. This country bumpkin is my cousin's assistant, and I've borrowed him to be my

driver. I'll need to take him back with me later, so just give him a small lesson."

"Don't worry, ma'am, I know my limits," Soldier assured her.

Despite his words, Soldier's grip didn't lighten but grew stronger. He was determined to break

Daniel's hand and teach him a lesson, curious to see if the country bumpkin would still dare to act

tough after his hand was crushed into a pulp.

Daniel, unperturbed by Soldier's force, turned to Beauty with a smile, "Thanks, Beauty!"

"Don't thank me. I only said that because of Jessica. Otherwise, your sneaky hand deserves to be

broken. I want to see if you'll dare to be a scoundrel after that!"

Remembering how brazenly Daniel had touched her thigh, Beauty seethed with anger. Never had

any man dared to act so presumptuously with her. This country bumpkin dared to do anything! He

had taken advantage of her.

Even if Soldier did break Daniel's hand, it would only be what he deserved.
