Life at The Top novel Chapter 418

Jasper seated himself on the sofa. He was about to give Henry a meaningful look to ask him to go and inquire about the situation when he saw Henry already walking over with an expression as black as thunder.

Henry grabbed Mark’s collar and hauled him bodily up from the ground. Fixing his attention on Mark, he growled “Boy, I’m not going to threaten you or intimidate you.

“But whatever I ask you after this, you’d better give me an honest answer. If you so much as keep even the smallest detail from me, I’ll drag your whole family into the mountains and bury them alive!”

Mark was so terrified he almost wept in fear. What did Henry mean, that he would not use threats or intimidation?

Was this not the most f*cking barefaced, direct attempt at threat and intimidation?!

Under interrogation from everyone in the room, Mark did not keep anything back at all and readily revealed everything that he knew.

“Brother, boss, all I really know is this—honest. A young man informed me that in the evening, a woman would order a Pink Lady cocktail with double mint and sea salt. Guests who usually drink Pink Lady cocktails won’t add sea salt to them, so that was considered to be something like a secret signal.

“After getting the signal, I was supposed to head over and she would hand me something. I was then supposed to bring it to the back door and hand it over to that young man. I don’t know who either of them were, the man or the woman.”

Mark trembled as he spoke, regret filling the pit of his stomach.

If he had known that he would end up like this today, just from earning that extra 1000 dollars, he would not have dared to take on the job even if he were beaten to death.

He had thought that he had made some easy money, but alas, there was no such thing as a free lunch, so to speak.

“Brother, that person gave me 1000 dollars. How about this—I give you the money and you don’t give me any more trouble? I’m just someone who came here from abroad to work. I can’t afford to offend any of you,” Mark pleaded with Henry as he swallowed and took the money out from the pocket of his trousers.
