Standing at the door, Alden adjusted his clothes. "Go get all the best wines from the cellar and bring them here!"
Mike hesitated for a moment. "All of them?"
Alden shot him a cold glance. "After today, take your stupid pig of a girlfriend and retire somewhere peaceful. Don't cause me any more trouble! If Mr. Ashcroft is not satisfied tonight, I'll drag you down with me before I die. Get lost!"
Frightened, Mike didn't dare to make a sound and hurried out.
Daniel overheard the noise outside.
"Any results?" Daniel asked coldly.
Alden stood with his feet together, looking down like a child being scolded. "Yes. Bobby took one million from Frederick to humiliate Ms. Geller and her team."
"Frederick? This guy really doesn't know when to stop! Where is he? Take me to him!" Daniel was shocked that Frederick, still reeling from the earlier beating, dared to show up again. Was this guy really asking for death?
Realizing things were going south, Frederick was terrified but didn't dare rush out.
The intimidating looks from the bodyguards at the door made him think of Daniel...
"Mr. Quinton, you haven't learned your lesson, have you?" Daniel entered with a grin.
Frederick turned his head toward Bobby. "You useless fool! How dare you betray me!"
Without a second thought, he slapped Bobby across the face.
Caught off guard, Bobby stood there dazed, clutching his face and staring at Frederick in confusion.
Daniel waved his hand, and Alden handed him a steel pipe.
"Bobby, is it? Break this guy's legs, and I'll forget what happened tonight!" He threw the steel pipe at Bobby's feet.
