The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 557

Chapter 557: Atlas’ resume

In the governor’s residence...

Jarvis, the middle-aged gentleman, paused in his tracks. He slowly lifted his gaze toward the door before him, hearing something shatter inside.

A shallow breath escaped him before he knocked.

Three knocks echoed through the room. He waited for a response — which he didn’t get — before reaching for the knob. As soon as Jarvis opened the door, his steps halted.

Inside stood a short, fat man with a bulging belly barely held in by the buttons of his blouse. His sleeves were rolled up to his thick elbows, and his clothes were smeared with patches of blood as he held a golf club in one hand.

The man lying bloodied on the carpet told the rest of the story.

"Jarvis," the governor huffed, his voice coarse and strained. "Why did you come back empty-handed?"

Jarvis remained unfazed despite the fury burning in the governor’s eyes. "Governor, our men are already hunting down every rat that came in here."

"I don’t need you to hunt them down!" the governor roared, marching toward him in heavy steps. His body bounced as he moved. "I want you to kill them right now!"

Because the governor was several feet shorter than Jarvis, he grabbed the middle of the man’s clothing with his blood-smeared hand.

"Jarvis, I told you not to come back without that wretched thief!" he barked. "And not only did you return empty-handed, but our port was taken over! Who was he?!"

Jarvis stared at the governor in silence. His height and calm composure only fueled the governor’s rage.

Grinding his teeth, the governor shoved him away and raised the golf club in frustration, ready to strike. But just as he lifted it, someone rushed in.

"Governor—"

The person froze at the sight before him.

The governor paused at the voice, though his eyes never left Jarvis. Jarvis, in turn, kept his gaze steady and lowered his head slightly.

"I am still verifying the identities of those who took control of the port," Jarvis said calmly. "But what I do know is that Billionaire helped them."

He paused, then lifted his gaze just a fraction. "The person requesting an audience with you will not easily disclose his identity—unless you request it yourself. Forgive me for my incompetence, Governor. I will make this right."

The governor panted, both from rage and from the beating he had delivered to the man now dead on the carpet. He ground his teeth, his face twisting, knowing deep down that it was not Jarvis’s fault.

"That ungrateful Billionaire," he hissed. "After letting him live all these years, he still dares to bite me back? Hah! I’m going to kill him."

Then he glared at Jarvis. "Jarvis, I cannot allow you to fail this time. If you do, I’ll cut you open myself!" He shook his head, scowling. "If this turns out as it did years ago, I will not forgive you. Even if I kill you a thousand times!"

"Find out who she convinced to enter this territory," he continued, his voice shaking with fury. "I don’t care how you do it. I want to know who they are, so I can kill them... and their entire families."

"Yes, Governor."

Jarvis lowered his head politely. He knew that uncovering the identities of those who had slipped into the territory would not be easy. Or so... he thought.

Just as he turned to leave, he paused and glanced at the man who had rushed in after him.

"What are you doing here?" he asked the young man.

The governor turned sharply toward the young man.

The newcomer cleared his throat and straightened his posture. "His name is Atlas Zorken!"

I didn’t see that coming, he thought. Either this man is a fool... or he’s confident.
