Chapter 18 The Most Courageous Man!
1458 Words
Paradise Nightclub, private room 888, the smell of blood and alcohol mixed together is suffocating.
"Wait!"
Just as a group of hooligans holding bottles, stools, and even fruit knives, were about to rush towards Travis, Dragon G suddenly shouted to stop them.
Everyone was shocked and looked at Dragon G in confusion.
But Dragon G ignored their gazes and stared at Travis intently!
He understood Travis's gaze. This man was here to fight for his life!
Dragon G achieved his current position through hard work when he was young.
He used to have the same kind of gaze, so he knew very well that people like him were not afraid of death. Anyone who dared to confront him head-on would definitely have a bad ending!
"Kid, who sent you here?"
Dragon G couldn't help but ask.
He dared to seize that construction project as his own territory, so he must be aware of the forces behind him.
Previously, whether it was the Timberlight Group or LGB company, they had sent people to drive him away. After they returned empty-handed, no one dared to escalate the situation, for fear of Dragon G's retaliation!
Unexpectedly, someone dared to come and find him now, and they were not just going through the motions, but serious!
"Never mind who sent me here. I'm putting it here tonight. If you don't agree and immediately get your people to leave, I will fight you to the death!" Travis's words were calm.
But the calmness was terrifying.
The whole scene fell into silence, feeling shocked!
No one expected someone to provoke Dragon G like this, and it was just one person!
Savannah couldn't help but look at Travis, her beautiful eyes shining.
This man was the most courageous man she had ever seen!
"Hahaha..."
Dragon G suddenly laughed heartily, and after a long time, his gaze became sharp:
"I didn't expect it! There are still people in Aketard who dare to talk to me like this! But you are overestimating yourself, kid."
"Do you know that if I say a word today, your body will appear in Aketard River tomorrow?"
Samir was scared by his words, his legs went weak, and he kept taking deep breaths.
He knew very well that Dragon G was not joking with these words!
He really dared to do it!!
"I don't know!" Travis remained stubborn: "I must complete this mission tonight. Even if I die, I will take you down with me!"
Every word came from the bottom of his heart!
Not just empty threats.
He had no way out and had to bring his wife home for his mother to see!
If he failed, Avalynn, that cold woman, would definitely look down on him, and it would be almost impossible for her to agree to come home in the future!
Dragon G stared at Travis's eyes for a long time. Coming from a background of indulging in violence, he knew very well that people like Travis were not to be provoked!
If he were still young, perhaps he would still fight Travis for his own interests.
But now that he was getting older and had acquired many things, he had lost the courage he had when he was young and risked everything!
To be blunt, with his current age and physical condition, if he caused any major trouble and got caught, he might not be able to enjoy the glory of being a boss like before.
"Dragon G, stop opposing the law! Let it go!" Travis persuaded again.
At this moment, Samir suddenly discovered that he was no longer trembling!
He found that Travis seemed to have really intimidated Dragon G!
Travis intimidated Dragon G not with the law, but with his determination and fearless momentum!
Looks can be deceiving. Looking at Travis's gentle appearance, who would have thought he could be so fierce?
"You want me to back off if you back off? Then where do I put my face?" Dragon G angrily shouted.
Savannah could also see that the mighty Dragon G had actually softened!
Because he realized that if he continued to confront Travis head-on, they would definitely not benefit. At this moment, he just wanted to find a way out.
To put it bluntly, the current Dragon G was nothing more than a paper tiger. When people have more things, they become afraid of losing them, and they no longer have the courage they once had when they had nothing!
On the other hand, Travis might be able to do something desperate precisely because he had no way out!
Travis, also a clever person, quickly asked, "So, Dragon G, what do you want?"
Samir was trembling with excitement again!
From the looks of it, could this matter actually be resolved?
Compared to the commission, the sense of accomplishment in his heart was the most satisfying. He didn't regret accompanying Travis to come here tonight and risk his life for it.
To be able to do such a big thing in life, he would be able to boast about it for half a lifetime!
"We didn't forcefully seize your territory. We just want to collect the hard-earned money for our brothers!" Dragon G was articulate, "As long as Timberlight Group is willing to pay the wages owed by the previous boss, I will immediately let my brothers leave and keep my promise!"
Travis knew that the other party just wanted money, so he said without expression, "How much?"
Dragon G boldly asked for a large sum, "5 million!"
Travis laughed directly, "Do you really think I haven't received an education? What kind of wages do you need that cost 5 million?"
"Don't think I don't know. In fact, there are only a dozen workers from the previous factory. Most of the others are unemployed hooligans!"
"The total wages for these dozen people amount to 50,000 to 80,000 per month at most! With 5 million, you can pay them for 20 years. Are they fools? Would they work for the boss who owed them 5 years' worth of wages?"
With these words, Dragon G got furious. If he weren't afraid of not being able to defeat Travis, he would have killed him on the spot!
"So, your suggestion is that if we don't want to pay, we should just leave?"
"Just wait! I'll consult with the boss."
No matter how intimidating Dragon G pretended to be, Travis didn't buy it. He showed no sign of weakness!
Without knowing the situation, one would think that he was the one surrounding the group instead of the other way around!
Seeing Dragon G's blackened face and his appearance ready to explode at any moment, Savannah felt her heart pounding.
This was the boss with three digits under him, and he was actually suppressed by one man!
Travis slowly dialed Avalynn's phone.At this moment, Avalynn was on her way, but she let out a sigh of relief when she saw Travis's call.
It seemed that the man was still alive!
However, she was still nervous when she answered the call, thinking that he might be calling for help.
When she heard Travis's words, her eyes trembled in surprise, "What? Dragon G only wants 5 million to withdraw?"
Compared to the enormous profits the project would bring in the future, this amount of money was insignificant to Timberlight Group!
If Dragon G had proposed such a low condition earlier, she would have agreed without hesitation.
"Well, if you don't want to pay, I'll talk to them again!"
Travis had never thought that Timberlight Group should pay this money, so he suspected that Avalynn would not agree.
"Okay, I agree!"
Avalynn readily agreed and told him not to provoke Dragon G anymore.
After hanging up the phone, Travis couldn't help but furrowed his brows.
He intentionally showed a difficult expression, otherwise if he agreed too readily,Dragon G and his group would think they could ask for more!
Sure enough, judging from his expression,Dragon G thought Timberlight Group would not agree, and he didn't want to go head to head with Travis, who was a tough opponent, so he took the initiative to step back:
"3 million! If you insist on counting, my brother's time is also valuable. If Timberlight Group doesn't want to pay 3 million, then let's call it quits!"
AfterDragon G finished speaking, he fiercely slapped the table.
It was clear that he had reached his limit!
After all, they were in this business for the money, right?
"3 million?" Travis continued to pretend to furrowed his brows, but he felt relieved inside. He had also saved 2 million for his wife's company. Now he should be able to experience his own worth, right?
But still, he pretended to sigh.
