Chapter 14
Hearing Quentin’s words, William, Wane, and the other security guards looked at Haylan with ant expression of gloating enjoyment.
Larry was from an influential family. His family background was comparable to Reign’s. He was literally a super-rich young man powerful enough to intervene with the legal world and the underworld.
How could a security guard afford to mess with such a big shot like him?
Quentin was clearly giving Haylan a hard time.
William looked at Quentin and then darted a worried glance at Haylan. He thought, “As expected, Mr. Hackbart hates Haylan. I can’t be too close to Haylan from now on.”
After thinking that, he secretly stepped a bit far away from Haylan.
“No problem!”
Haylan saw through what Quentin was up to and slightly knitted his brows.
However, in the end, he did not say anything and directly walked outside.
“Haylan will get messed up this time.”
Wane and the other people present looked at Haylan’s back in anticipation, ready to watch a show.
“Hehe. It was bold of you to slap me in the face. You’re risking your neck.” Quentin’s eyes grew gloomy.
In their eyes, as long as Haylan dared to expel Larry, he would definitely piss Larry off. Larry would make him sorry for it.
Under everyone’s gaze, Haylan walked to Larry and pointed his fingers at him while holding a baton.
“Here comes the fun part. Haylan will get slapped in the face.”
Watching the scene, Quentin and the other security guards all grinned hideously as if they had witnessed Larry madly slapping Haylan.
It was known to all that Larry treated those who were inferior to him very badly. Now that Haylan dared to point fingers at Larry, he would definitely find himself in serious trouble.
However, things did not go as they expected.
Larry did not beat up Haylan. Instead, he was very pleasant to Haylan, passing him a cigar and even lighting it up. In the end, he also put his arms around Haylan’s shoulders and laughed joyfully like a kid who got his wanted toy.
Larry ordered his subordinates to remove all the roses at the company’s entrance immediately.
Larry even bowed to Haylan humbly, shook hands with him, and hugged him. Clearly, Larry treated Haylan very warmly..
In the end, Larry left happily. Before that, he even laughed loudly.
Quentin, Wane, and the others were dumbfounded by the scene and looked at each other quietly.
How was it possible?
Why did Larry treat Haylan so warmly? Larry had done so many things on such a large scale clearly to propose. Why did he just leave?
What happened?

What did Haylan say to Larry?
Smoking a cigar, Haylan waved at Larry before returning to the security department office. He said casually, “Alright. The problem is solved.”
After saying that, he sat on the sofa and sighed with emotion.
The domestic cigar was really nice.
Quentin had an astonished expression. He looked at Larry, who had left, and then turned to look at Haylan, who was calm and cool. In the end, he still couldn’t help but ask curiously, “What did you say to Mr. Muller?”
The other people all looked at Haylan, their eyes full of curiosity.
Larry did not always take the security guards seriously. In the past, as long as they tried to stop him, they would be beaten and utterly disgraced by him.
Even though Haylan pointed fingers at Larry, Larry still treated Haylan respectfully and warmly. It was very strange.
“I expelled him. The task is completed. Does it matter what I said to him?” Haylan asked casually.
Quentin and the others looked at each other with embarrassment upon hearing that.
Haylan was so arrogant. He did not take Quentin seriously at all, but they just could not refute him.
At that moment, Haylan looked at the time and stood up. “Alright. It’s time to clock off.
“Guys, I’ve got to go.”
After saying that, he rose, got changed, and left.
“Mr. Jaber is really something.” Wane looked at Haylan’s back, his eyes glittering with admiration.
It was definitely quite something to make Larry show respect for him.
“He is quite competent but too arrogant, undisciplined, and disobedient.” Quentin’s expression turned gloomy.
William looked at Quentin’s face and felt perturbed. He then took half a step back in a hurry.
It was just that William was also very curious.
He wondered what on earth Haylan had said to Larry to make the latter leave without flaring up.
In the CEO’s office on the 28th floor of the Mapleturz Group…
Reign stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down. When she saw Larry leave, she was quite surprised.
Larry was arrogant and proud. He always did whatever he could to get what he wanted. He was dressed up and had placed so many roses at the entrance. Clearly, he was going to propose.
Yet, he just left suddenly.
That was not consistent with Larry’s character.
“It seems that Quentin and the other security guards are still useful. They’ve finally done something satisfactory, Reign said with a sigh.
“Rei, good news! Super good news!” Yara exclaimed.
Meanwhile, she rushed inside with excitement.
“Hey, after all, you’re the director of the research and development department. How can you forget yourself like this? Mind your manners.”

Reign smiled and asked, “What is the good news? Is it that you’ve got a boyfriend?’
Yara, Reign’s best friend, was addicted to developing new drugs. She put all her thoughts into medicine development over the past eight years. She was too busy to get a boyfriend.
“I’ve succeeded in developing the scar removal ointment.”
