Chapter 668: Destroying One’s Own Prestige and Boosting Others’ Ambition
"Did your girlfriend agree to break up?""Even if she doesn’t agree, she has to agree. I’m the one who calls the shots now!"
Connor had a macho expression, as if he held a high position.
Harry Hunter bluntly exposed him, "It’s clearly whatever she tells you to do, you do it. What decisions have you actually made?"
Feeling guilty, Connor stubbornly said, "I’m a man, so I let her have her way. After all, she’s a woman, right?"
Harry glanced at him and then said, "Make sure someone buys a few Mayweed fish."
"Huh? What’s that for?"
"For Isabella."
Connor was puzzled, "Does the Young Madam like this kind of fish? I thought girls preferred those pretty tropical fish."
Harry calmly explained, "The ones she caught from T City are almost all dead. Next time they die, scoop out the dead fish and replace them with live ones."
That way, she won’t be upset.
"Got it!"
Connor instantly understood the Young Master’s intentions. After arriving at the Group, Harry went to work, and Connor sent people to buy the fish.
He also had Jace, who was stationed outside Harry’s villa, go inside and take pictures of the fish, ensuring they bought the exact same ones.
Jace sent him the pictures and couldn’t resist calling him, "Brother Connor, that group of people was still hovering around your house last night, like they’re waiting for you to come back."
"Drive them away! A bunch of swindlers!"
"We’ve already had a confrontation, couldn’t beat them, Brother Connor!"
Connor was a bit angry, "All the good food you’ve eaten with us, weren’t those trainings for nothing? You’re supposed to be the Young Master’s elite bodyguard team, and now you’re telling me you can’t beat a group of swindlers?"
Jace’s voice was extremely aggrieved, "It’s not because we’re weak, Brother Connor. Each of them is exceptionally skilled, their reaction times are on a different level compared to us. Especially the leader, you haven’t seen him, his punches are so fast you can’t see them! Even if you faced him, Brother Connor, you might not be able to beat him!"
Connor suddenly stood up from his chair, "Impossible!"
He had once been undefeated worldwide, with extraordinary physical superiority and extremely rigorous training, rich in battle experience. Now his subordinate is telling him he can’t defeat some swindler who suddenly appeared?!
Jace’s voice was faint, "Really, Brother Connor, it’s not that I’m underestimating our own capacity and boosting theirs. In this confrontation, they obviously held back, or else we’d be either dead or crippled. I think they’re not like swindlers, their leader has an extraordinary aura, his clothes don’t show any brand, but the material, the texture, the craftsmanship, it’s comparable to our Young Master’s."
Connor was thoroughly furious, being compared to himself was already something, but daring to compare him to the Young Master was outrageous!
"Your bonus for this month is gone!"
"Hey, don’t, Brother Connor! You can’t copy the Young Master with this move!"
Connor hung up the phone, still a bit angry, but not long after, Jace called again.
"Brother Connor, that leader took his people and left. I had people follow them, looks like they’re heading to Star Region Group! Be careful!"
"How many people did he bring?"
"Two, the rest are still guarding your house’s entrance."
"Just two, what are you panicking for? If they dare come cause trouble, they’ll have no return!"
Connor felt that their coming was perfect timing!
Ten minutes later, Connor appeared in the underground parking lot of the Group’s building.
The employees were all working upstairs, aside from rows of cars, the parking lot was silent.
Connor watched as the leader brought two subordinates walking towards him, noticing that the trio made no sound and walked in sync, with cold and stern expressions.
They stopped two meters away from him and kneeled on one knee. It was the leader who spoke, "Your Highness, please return to your homeland."
