The security guard on duty was about to ask them to move their vehicle, when one of the men in black said, "The Salazar family is handling matters here. It’s none of your business."
In Harbor City, the name of the Salazar family was known to all. When the Salazar family took action, almost no one dared to interfere.
The security guard immediately opened the gate for them. "Who are you looking for?"
"Take us to Building 8, Unit 2." They had received information that the one their lady was looking for was in room 2502 of Unit 2 in Building 8.
The security guard promptly led the way. "Please follow me."
This community was famous for its river-view apartments in Harbor City, and the property prices were sky-high. When Cornelia rented these two apartments, she spent a ton of money.
However, she felt that even if the Hartley Group went bankrupt, even if Jeremy had no income now, and his injuries required a lot of medical expenses, she had to let Jeremy live in a big house, and absolutely couldn't let him suffer any hardship. She could work hard to make money, but she couldn't let him suffer.
Besides, Cornelia believed that her current income was enough to support the family and pay the salaries of Patricia and Ayden. If she knew that even with good property management, it couldn't stop the rich and powerful from entering, she would definitely be pissed off.
Soon, they arrived at Building 8, Unit 2.
The man in black said to the security guard, "You can leave now. We don't need you anymore."
The security guard obediently said, "This is a two-family unit per elevator. I need to swipe my card to get in. You tell me which floor you're going to, and I'll swipe the card for you."
The man in black replied, "25th floor."
"Alright." The security guard opened the elevator, swiped the card for them, and only left after they got in the elevator.
After walking a few steps, the security guard looked back twice. He could only sigh at the sight of the four menacing men in black.
The 25th floor only had one family living there.
This family was quite large, with an elderly woman, a middle-aged woman, a tall man with a scarred face, a young couple, and a one-month-old baby. He didn't know the background of this family. They all seemed well-educated, presumably a learned family.
As for wealth, they definitely had more money than him, but certainly couldn't compare to the Salazar family. He didn't know why they had offended the people of the Salazar family.
Looking at those people, it was obvious that they were here to cause trouble. He guessed that after tonight, he might never see this family again.
...
The elevator moved quickly and arrived at room 2502 in no time.
There was a doorbell in the most conspicuous position on the door, but they didn't plan to press it, they were about to knock.
However, just as the person who was about to knock had his hand up in the air, the door was suddenly opened from the inside. A tall man appeared before them. Before they had a chance to react, the man had already stepped out and locked the door behind him.
The man in black said, "You're quite good at playing it by ear. Just cooperate and come with us. You'll be serving our princess in the future. If you do a good job, there's a bright future for you."
Who was Jeremy supposed to serve?
