The Bigshot Married Himself to the Heiress

Chapter 781 - 816: I Will Not Be at Peace Until He Is Dead (Part 2)

He realized women are really different from one another. If he told Sienna Johnson to get lost, Sienna would truly "get lost," disappearing to a place where he couldn’t find her.

"Your wife is pregnant, you’ve been holding back for a long time, haven’t you? If you’re interested, I’ll send them to your bed tonight." Seeing Adrian Desmond staring at the two women, Wayne Manning thought Adrian was interested, and said generously.

"Two women, is that enough? If not, I’ll get you a few more."

Wayne Manning’s words made the two women pause in their tracks. They boldly looked at Adrian, hoping he would let them stay.

Adrian is the kind of man they’re willing to sleep with.

Wayne Manning held his wine glass, looking at the two women who had ulterior motives. Although gifting women to each other was a friendly gesture among men, it didn’t mean he could tolerate women he had slept with eagerly ditching him to climb higher.

"I’m not interested in other women, I just want to sleep with Sienna Johnson!"

"Aren’t you tired of it? Eating the same dish endlessly becomes annoying. You should switch women occasionally, too."

"I’m not tired of it."

A playboy can never understand the mindset of a man deeply in love. Loving someone, even a hug, can make him feel content.

"Why are you two still standing here? Didn’t you hear Sixth Master say he’s not interested in either of you?" Wayne Manning’s tone already carried a hint of anger.

"Yes, we’ll leave right away." The two women, seeing Adrian wasn’t interested, put away their fantasies and obediently retreated.

Now, only the two of them were left in the room. Wayne Manning poured Adrian a glass of wine, shedding his earlier frivolity.

"I know why you’re here, but I’m afraid I can’t help you."

Wayne Manning and Adrian are familiar with each other. Back in the day, when Wayne could kill Uncle for revenge, it was thanks to Adrian’s help. Logically speaking, if Adrian needed help now, Wayne should assist him, but...

"... Now, business is getting harder to conduct. You know, the current environment... I can’t expand too much, or they’ll target me. Xavier Young has developed quickly over the past years, gaining great momentum, and he’s already caught their attention.

I can help you rescue your wife, but asking me to wipe out all of Woodenshade Village is beyond what I can do."

"..."

"Adrian, actually, you don’t need to bother with him. With that hop-around energy, he’ll meet his end sooner rather than later."

Adrian said, "If he doesn’t die, I won’t be at peace!"

Back then, if he hadn’t been soft-hearted and let Xavier Young go, there wouldn’t be today’s troubles.

The enmity between him and Xavier is settled. If Adrian lets Xavier off now, once Xavier regains his strength, he’ll come back to make trouble again, so Adrian can’t possibly spare Xavier another time.

Wayne stopped speaking.

Adrian sat there, pondering, "Since you want to find someone to divert attention for you, why not cultivate some puppets?"

Wayne looked interestedly at Adrian, listening as Adrian continued, "... You let Xavier Young survive in the Golden Triangle, which helps divert some attention and risk from you, but he also snatches considerable profits from you.

Why not take this opportunity to cultivate a few puppets?

After wiping out Woodenshade Village, find a few unfamiliar trusted associates to continue running Woodenshade. Occasionally, stage some skirmishes, seizing each other’s goods and the like, make the people above think you’re two separate forces, but the money still goes into your pocket."

"That’s not a bad idea." Wayne was tempted.

"Before coming here, I had someone investigate, Xavier’s land yields quite the harvest. If you can take over, you’ll earn plenty each year."

Wayne looked at Adrian, his eyes seemingly seeing a pile of cash, "Alright, I’ll help you. But... you know business is tough now, my goods aren’t moving out smoothly, can you help through your fleet?"

Adrian didn’t even think before refusing, "Wayne, you know my situation. My parents died because of it, I swore I would never again touch your stuff in this lifetime, even if it means dying poor and starving.

I can help you with other things, but I won’t help you transport that stuff."

Drugs, once you’re involved, you can never escape.

Just like his father, after marrying his mother and having him and his sister, the father wanted to quit for good, but he simply couldn’t choose.

He had never touched it before, and with a wife and child now, he wouldn’t touch it even more.

He absolutely wouldn’t let his child become an orphan.

"Alright, let’s pretend I didn’t say that. But, if I help you deal with Xavier Young, it will consume manpower and resources, you’ll have to cover these expenses."

Wayne was very calculating, even with his brothers.

"Fine. I’ll cover all expenses incurred, and additionally, I’ll send you 15 Barrett heavy sniper rifles," Adrian said generously.

"Sixth Master is indeed wealthy."

"You’ve earned no less over the years; I just spend freely. Money can’t be taken with you in life or death, what’s the point of hoarding so much?"

"You have a wife and son, yet you say such things. You’re saving it for your son’s wedding, of course."

"I believe my son will be able to build his career with his own two hands."

"Haha..."

Adrian stood up, saying, "I won’t hold you up from sleeping with women, I’ll be off."

"Don’t go, we rarely meet, let’s chat..." Wayne grabbed him, not letting him leave, "Sleeping with too many women gets old."

"If you don’t sleep, I have to go back and sleep. Goodbye..."

"Adrian, you’re not planning to use me and then toss me aside, are you?"

"..."

"Adrian, are you really going to use me and discard me!"

Wayne shouted after him, his tone resembling someone who had been abandoned by Adrian after being used.
