Chapter 1006
As Connor had said, he was indeed eager for revenge, but he wouldn't really kill the latter right away to save trouble. If he were to do that, he would ruin the accomplishments Norman had made with his own life.
Given Norman's past contributions, the country wouldn't hold him accountable for killing Connor, but it would use Norman's meritorious exploits to cancel out the impact and trouble caused by him killing Connor like that. Norman had performed meritorious deeds at the cost of his own life, so it really wasn't worth it to use them to cancel out the problems caused by Connor's death. He wouldn't do that either, so he would use the most righteous means of revenge: he would find the evidence of Connor's crimes before requesting the top guns to let him execute Connor in person. He believed that they wouldn't turn down such a request. As long as he didn't do anything reckless and cause hundreds of thousands of people to lose their jobs or their families, the authorities would definitely satisfy him for Norman's sake.
Connor's grip on the dragon's head on his walking stick tightened when he heard Toby's words. However, he loosened his grip with a dismissive smile soon afterward, saying, "Is that so? In that case, let's see what you're capable of."
Toby raised his chin slightly while looking down at Connor with the aid of his height. "You won't be disappointed. I just hope that you won't beg me for mercy when the day comes."
Naturally, Connor didn't like it when Toby looked at him with contempt like this. However, he couldn't do anything about it because of the latter's height, so he had no choice but to put up with it while barely managing to keep smiling. "Of course I won't."
"Good to hear that," Toby replied coldly with his hands in his trouser pockets. Then, he threatened airily, "I hope you'll have the spare parts delivered to Paradigm Co. within an hour. Otherwise, even if I can't take your life at the moment, I can make you suffer. Try me if you don't believe it."
Connor replied with a chuckle, "Rest assured, son. Since I've promised to return the spare parts, I won't put it off, of course. So there are some things that you can't do even if you want to."
Toby's eyes flickered slightly. "Is that so? That's too bad. I was hoping that you could be a bit late." If this old man does so, I'll have a reason to give him trouble.
Connor let out another chuckle. "Now that you've fulfilled your purpose in coming here, I wonder if you can talk about my purpose."
"What do you want?" Toby squinted.
Connor stood up as well. "As you know, I've never set foot in Seafield over the past 30 years. Now I'm here for my only daughter."
"So Anya really is your illegitimate daughter?" Toby cut him short.
Connor lowered his eyes to conceal the look in them. "Of course. What's wrong? Are you suspecting that she isn't my daughter?"
