In Love, Never Say Never Chapter 1643
Males of all creatures could always sense the danger within the shortest time possible.
The black man was evidently wary of Ashton, for he did not comment on Ashton’s action. His arms remained outstretched in front of him, but he shrugged and took two steps back.
“Come on, Fuller. We’re buddies. Don’t get so mad.” The black man smiled as he let his arms return to his side. Then, he politely reached out a hand and introduced himself, “It’s me, Lucas. We should’ve met earlier.”
Ashton’s eyes swept past his hand before he pressed his lips together. “I don’t remember you.”
Ashton never once planned to shake hands with him.
In the end, Lucas awkwardly retracted his hand as an embarrassed look crept upon his face.
However, Ashton ignored him. He turned around and escorted me to the couch as he asked John, “What’s going on?”
John took in a deep breath before gesturing to the side. “This is Lucas and that’s Quince.”
It was then we noticed that Lucas was not the only important figure there. On the couch was a shorter black man. As he was much thinner and smaller in size, his subordinates had blocked him from our vision, and that was why we did not notice him until then.
He must be Quince.
After a pause, John added, “They’re the leaders of M Country’s number one gang, Skull.”
God. This can’t be the Skull I know, right? Is this the horrendous gang that commits numerous atrocious killings? Even the authorities in M Country can’t do anything about them.
Clinging to hope, I glanced at John hoping to see a hint telling me that he was not serious. Sadly, no miracles happened.
The only things behind the friendliness of strangers are money and power. It was easy to guess what they were at our place for.
The rich and the powerful were easy targets. Fuller Corporation was the largest company that had managed to expand its business into five countries, and many were eager to cut a piece of Fuller Corporation for themselves.
Those who took the legal route would come to Fuller Corporation with business proposals, hoping to be the lucky one among the millions. Regardless of everything, Fuller Corporation remained the one to decide.
