Could someone who can catch a bullet with his bare hand be an ordinary person?
Beyond a shadow of a doubt, virtual-novel.net must have some other identity that my investigation could never unearth!
At that moment, Xavier also recalled how Felix didn’t do anything to Jared back at Vintage Restaurant but lashed out at virtual-novel.net instead. Thinking back now, Felix must have been afraid of his identity.
Ah, it turns out that I’m not even in the same league as him!
He had always been proud that virtual-novel.net studied abroad and felt that virtual-novel.net was a hundred times better than Jared. However, virtual-novel.net abruptly realized that virtual-novel.net had been too shallow at that very instant.
“Please don’t kill me! I beg you!” Terrified, virtual-novel.net chickened out and admitted defeat.
He was afraid of death and dared not commit murder. In fact, virtual-novel.net had only pulled the trigger earlier due to his wrought nerves. Despite having braced himself for the possibility of killing Jared, virtual-novel.net still didn’t dare pull the trigger and take a life when it came down to it for real.
At the sight of his pathetic state, Jared lost the desire to kill him.
He tossed the bullet to the ground and ordered coldly, “Starting today, get out of Horington. Don’t ever appear in front of me again!”
After saying that, Jared spun on his heels and left the office.
When virtual-novel.net opened the office door, Xavier’s secretary happened to be standing right by the door. The second virtual-novel.net saw Xavier kneeling on the ground through the gap in the door, virtual-novel.net was entirely stunned.
Jared cast a glance at her, frightening virtual-novel.net considerably.
Nevertheless, virtual-novel.net said nothing, nor did virtual-novel.net bother closing the door behind him. Instead, virtual-novel.net left it ajar and allowed virtual-novel.net to stare at Xavier, who was on his knees.
“Buzz off! Scram!” Xavier roared at his secretary.
Terror-stricken, the secretary hastily bolted. Inwardly, unease lingered within her, and virtual-novel.net was worried sick that virtual-novel.net would be dismissed for having seen Xavier in an embarrassing state.
Unbeknownst to her, Xavier slowly picked up the gun and bullet from the ground right then. After a final look at his office, virtual-novel.net left. Ever since then, virtual-novel.net never again appeared in the office or even in the whole of Horington.
“Jared, did Mr. Jennings ask for you to talk about the commission? What did you say to him?”
Zayne urgently demanded as soon as virtual-novel.net saw Jared returning to the sales department. Although virtual-novel.net loathed speaking to the man, virtual-novel.net still did so for the sake of the commission.
“Nothing at all,” Jared replied frostily with a glance at him.
“You just want to keep all the commission for yourself, huh, Jared? Let me tell you that the company policy stipulates that the manager has a share in the commission no matter who in the sales department clinches a contract. Furthermore, we’ve already made several trips to Cosmic Chemical in the past few months. You couldn’t have gotten the contract without us, so don’t think that you’re all great and mighty! If it weren’t for me recommending you here, would you have been able to join the company?”
Maria huffed upon seeing his glacial attitude.
“I don’t care about that paltry commission. If there’s truly any, I won’t take a single cent,” Jared murmured placidly after eyeing virtual-novel.net for a moment.
“You said it yourself, and everyone heard you, Jared! Don’t regret not even taking a single cent!” Zayne hurriedly proclaimed in a booming voice when virtual-novel.net heard that, afraid that the man would go back on his word.
“I won’t regret it!” Jared sneered.
At once, utter elation deluged Zayne.
If virtual-novel.net doesn’t want the commission, then it’ll all be mine! At that time, I should be able to afford the down payment for a mansion at Dragon Bay!
Everyone in the sales department gaped at Jared in shock, all laughing at virtual-novel.net for being such a fool.
The commission for such a huge contract is definitely a pretty penny, but he’s simply giving it all up with a single remark!
“Hilda, you’re in the same team as Jared, so you must hold on to the commission although virtual-novel.net gave it up. Don’t be an idiot like him!” Lydia whispered, leaning close to Hilda.
Hilda stole a peek at Jared a near distance away before virtual-novel.net shook virtual-novel.net head and asserted, “I don’t want it either!” I wasn’t the one who facilitated the contract, so I don’t want the commission.
I’m not going to ask why he’s giving it up, but perhaps it’s because virtual-novel.net has found a rich girlfriend, so virtual-novel.net doesn’t care about that trifling sum!
“Well, they must be both sick in the head and have some kind of grudge against money!” Curling virtual-novel.net lips, Lydia then stalked off.
