Simon noticed that Lance's face clouded over after hearing what he said. But he didn't know why Lance was annoyed.
Simon frowned and felt a bit scared.
To become the CEO of the Cordova Group, Bryson had offended a lot of people. Simon thought that Lance and Bryson might bear grudges against each other.
So he tried to sound out Lance's mind. "Lance, do you have any problem with my uncle Bryson?"
Hearing that, Lance got angrier. Simon realized that he was right. Lance did have a bad relationship with Bryson.
Ten seconds later, Lance asked, "Do you know Audrey?"
"Sure, she is my aunt."
Then Lance stared at Simon with a murderous look.
Seeing Lance's reaction, Simon remembered something. He thought, 'Is it about Lance and Audrey?'
"Have you heard about Lance Brook?" Lance asked with a distorted face.
Of course, Simon did have heard about Lance countless times. And he heard from those who went to the Pine City with Bryson.
Lance was once offended by Bryson. So Lance kidnapped Audrey when Bryson went to the Pine City. Finally, Bryson turned to the military to save Audrey.
Whenever thinking of this story, Simon found Lance admirable but also horrible.
On one hand, Lance was horrible since he was powerful in the underworld. On the other hand, Simon admired him as he fought with Bryson for a woman and kept safe.
"You, you ... you're Lance?" Simon asked in a shaky voice.
Lance nodded.
Realizing the truth, Simon was stunned.
It seemed that he was in danger again. He worried that Lance would be aggressive to him because of Bryson.
He seemed cursed with bad luck.
While he was concerned, Lance returned his phone to him and said, "Call Bryson now."
Simon was trembling. He asked in a low voice, "Call ... call him for what?"
"Ask him where he is. I'll take you there." Lance glanced at Simon.
"What? You'll take me to Bryson?"
"What's wrong? You don't wanna go?"
"No, no."
Simon once believed that Lance wanted to kidnap him and blackmail Bryson. He seemed wrong.
To be honest, he was eager to leave since it was dangerous to stay here.
'But will he go for revenge?' Simon wondered.
Simon called Bryson immediately and Bryson told him where he was. Simon implied that dangerous persons would come with him. Then he told Lance an address.
And he was taken into the car. They went back to the city.
...
At the Cordova Group.
When Simon and Lance arrived at the Cordova Group, Bryson just finished a meeting.
Lance, a neat freak, looked gentle and elegant in white clothes. Thus many women in the office were attracted by him.
However, those guys following Lance looked aggressive. So several security guards in the Cordova Group went with them although they knew Simon.
As soon as Bryson went out of the meeting room, he saw Simon and Lance.
Other leaders bypassed them and walked to the elevator quietly as they thought those persons were dangerous.
Melvin and Franco, who met Lance before, looked at Lance nervously. They worried that Lance would fight with Bryson in the office.
