Meanwhile, Boss' men had appeared on the jetty. Kenneth was hiding in a secret spot on the other side.
As he looked at the jetty, Kenneth pursed his lips as a cold glint flickered in his eyes.
If it weren't for them actively troubling Natasha in the first place, Kenneth could have turned a blind eye. However, if he decided to let them off the hook when things had gone this far, it would make him seem too merciful.
Sometimes, humans would only learn after being taught a lesson. One should learn to be more humble when they're on other's territory.
At that thought, a malicious smile appeared on Kenneth's face as his gaze darkened.
Just then, Fabian walked over with a man.
“Mr. Hamilton.”
Kenneth turned around. He merely glanced at the man standing behind him. “What's up?”
“This is a man working under Reichen. He wants to thank you personally,” Fabian said.
When the man saw Kenneth, he quickly bowed slightly. “Mr. Hamilton, I am here on behalf of Mr. Reed. He is not in Glenport City at the moment, but he will remember your kind deed toward him. If you ever need his help, feel free to reach out to him. Mr. Reed will definitely go all out to help you.”
Kenneth's lips twitched when he heard that. “All right. Tell your boss that I’ll remember that,” he said, not thinking too much about it.
“But there's something else that we need your help with, Mr. Hamilton,” the man looked at Kenneth. His tone was dubious as worry was expressed in his eyes.
Kenneth narrowed his eyes. “Spit it out.”
After a brief moment of hesitation, the man replied, “Mr. Reed is asking for your help to get the goods. This is your territory, after all. You will definitely be able to get it successfully.” Upon speaking, the man carefully studied Kenneth's expression.
Kenneth listened quietly.
In the dark night, it was hard for anyone to take a look at his handsome and exquisite features and understand what he was thinking.
Fabian spoke up instead. “Your boss is incredibly scheming. We're already kind enough to share the information with you, and now you're asking us to get the goods for you? Might as well tell us to gift it to you instead.”
The man listened quietly. He obviously understood what Fabian meant.
This was why he was afraid to relay the message.
He was literally digging his own grave.
Noticing his silence, Fabian continued, “Since your boss isn't able to take it, then go back to tell him that our deal is off. We will take the goods for ourselves. There won’t be a need for us to gift it to you anyway. Money is still money, after all.” He looked at the man mockingly.
Upon hearing that, the man's eyebrows instantly furrowed. “It's because we don't have enough manpower—”
“Is it due to a lack of manpower or a lack of trust?” Kenneth interrupted before the man could even finish his sentence.
His eyes were filled with suspicion.
The man froze for a second before blurting, “Mr. Hamilton, that's not—”
“It doesn't matter who ends up having such a big batch of goods, for it totals up to a huge sum of money anyway. Your boss probably can't understand why I am so generous as to reveal the information to him so easily, right?” Kenneth analyzed. His voice was low enough to make anyone shudder during the dead of night.
The man stared at Kenneth in silence.
Kenneth’s dark eyes seemed to pierce through him. It was as dark as the deepest pits of hell, making his hair stand on end.
The man pursed his lips. He was at a loss of words.
It was then that Kenneth slowly walked toward him. The man instantly tensed up while his heart clenched in terror.
Every step Kenneth took was like a test to him.
