“I am not a master, but an ordinary man.” Maximilian smiled indifferently and said, “Wanna continue? If not, let’s talk about compensation.”
Hopkins surely didn’t want to fight with Maximilian anymore. That only move of Maximilian was enough to convince Hopkins the great difference between them. Hopkins didn’t want to ask for trouble.
“Please wait a second. Let me talk to my good for nothing disciple first.” Hopkins held his hands and saluted.
Hopkins walked quickly to Brodie and pulled Brodie by his ear. They walked to the warehouse.
After the warehouse door closed, Hopkins said coldly, “You damn fool. You are now in deep trouble. Even sacrificing my life cannot settle this matter!”
Brodie was also scared by Maximilian. Hurting someone with spitting tea water, this could not be true. How can this kind of master exist in the really world?
“Master, I know I was wrong. But what can I do? I don’t have even 20 million dollars, not to mention 100 million dollars!” Brodie said gloomily.
“Didn’t you just receive 5 million this morning? How come you don’t even have 20 million? Don’t pretend to be poor.”
“I was unlucky recently and the business was getting worse. I can barely make ends meet.”
Hopkins slapped Brodie angrily and said, “How much you have?”
“I have 19 million in my bank,” Brodie answered weakly.
“You are a disgraceful disciple. Hand over all the evidences and I will help you pay the rest.”
“Master, for real? You won’t hurt me, kill me or cripple me?” Brodie looked at Hopkins suspiciously.
“Fuck of if you don’t trust me! I don’t really give a damn of you. Do whatever you want, and go spread the videos. People made mistakes when they were young.” Hopkins turned around and walked out angrily. Brodie grabbed him and said without any shame, “Master, don’t get angry. I am just saying. Of course I trust you! I will give to the flash drive now,” Brodie retrieved the flash drive in a secret compartment of a cabinet and handed it to Hopkins.
Hopkins took a deep look at Brodie and said, “This is the last time I help you and our relationship ends from now on. Get the hell out of H City, and I don’t want to see you anymore. Understand?”
“Absolutely. Crystal clear! I am planning to leave anyhow. I can’t stay here anymore.” Brodie said with a forced smile.
He offended his biggest patron and didn’t have the gut to stay in H City.
“Transfer the money and fuck off. I will go talk to Mr. Lee for follow-up.”
“Ok. You are the boss.”
Hopkins walked out of the warehouse with Brodie, bowed and said. “Mr. Lee, my good for nothing disciple was a gambler and he only has 19 million dollars now. He will transfer all to you. Let’s talk about the rest of the compensation.”
