Chapter 249
Looking at the old man in front of him, Hugh’s eyes were filled with fear, and his entire body was trembling.
Robert retracted his sharp gaze and revealed a particularly benevolent smile. “Hugh, since you’re already here, why are you in a hurry to leave?
“Come and have a seat. It’s just as well that we can talk.”
He smiled amuably like a really kind person. He looked harmless and benevolent.
However, in Hugh’s eyes, that smile was as terrifying as a devil’s.
Hugh knelt on the ground with a thud. “Mr. Bard”
As he spoke, he lowered his head and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
“Hi. Mr. Bard.”
Damian walked over and knelt on one knee respectfully.
Unlike Hugh, he had been looking at Robert openly after kneeling.
“All right, get up.”
Robert looked calm. He walked past the two of them to the sofa in the hall and sat down.
Behind Robert were two other kings among the Four Kings. They were the Blade King of Northern Deseret, Tomas Berry. and the Eagle King of Dragon Hole, Zac Holland
The two of them stood beside Robert. They did not speak, but their gazes were like lightning, and their temples bulged high With their bodies filled with an incomparably terrifying aura, others would shudder just by glancing at them.
Clearly, these two people were also very powerful.
Damian also stood up and served coffee to Robert. Then, he stood respectfully behind Robert.
When the three of them stood together, the aura emanating from their bodies was extremely terrifying.
Compared to the three of them. Hugh seemed much weaker.
It was their existence that made Robert look even more majestic and terrifying.
He sat there quietly and tasted coffee. He looked at Hugh, who was still kneeling on the ground. “Hugh, why aren’t you getting up**
Hugh stood up. He did not dare to look into Robert’s eyes at all. He lowered his head and trembled.
Robert pointed to the seat opposite him. “Sit down.”
Hugh did not dare to disobey. He quickly sat down in that seat with a nervous expression.
Robert took a sip of coffee and gestured for Damian to pour Hugh a glass of coffee.
Hugh held the coffee cup and was at a loss.
Robert’s expression was calm as he said calmly, “Hugh, tell me, why did you attack the Zabel family?”
When Hugh heard this, his body trembled, but he still mustered his courage and said in a low voice, “Haylan killed my nephew I want revenge!”
“Haylan killed your nephew. Why did you find trouble with the Zabel family instead of Haylan? Robert asked.
“L. Hugh’s eyes were filled with fear. He did not know what to say for a long time.
To be honest, he was indeed regretting it now.
After Jason died, he was furious and lost his mind. No matter who was on Haylan’s side, he wanted to destroy them all.
Therefore, when he learned that the families of Perry and Noah were in Zabel Village, he immediately attacked the Zabel family.
After calming down, he began to regret it.
Going against the Zabel family was definitely the stupidest thing to do,
“You can’t say it, can you?”
Robert took a sip of coffee. Then, he stared coldly at Hugh and said in a deep voice, “Zac, show him the data of our losses
Zac walked out and took out a tablet. He placed it in front of Hugh and said in a deep voice. “thigh, take a look
Hugh’s expresion changed. Then, he mustered his courage and looked at the tables,
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The data showed that after he attacked the Zabel family’s industries, the Zabel family also launched a rather powerful attack. His underground bank had lost a lot of money.
At the same time, all the industries under Robert suffered losses.
The total losses were up to two billion dollars!
At this point. Hugh was sweating profusely
Two billion dollars!
Although it was only a drop in the ocean compared to the huge assets of Robert.
However, this was also an astronomical amount.
Robert’s showing him such data, was definitely not just to tell him that he suffered a loss.
Bang!
At this moment, Robert’s face suddenly turned cold. He smashed the cup of coffee on the table and berated. “Kneel down!”
Hugh trembled and knelt down immediately. He was drenched in sweat and begged for mercy in fear, “Mr. Bard, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. Please spare my life!”
Robert’s face darkened. He said coldly, “Do you think I came to look for you just for the two billion dollars loss?”
“Tomas, take that thing out and show it to him,” Robert said coldly.
Tomas stared at Hugh coldly. Then, he took out a USB flash drive and placed it in front of Hugh.
“W-what is this?” Hugh’s expression changed.
Although he did not know what was in the USB flash drive, he had a rather bad premonition.
It was as if the USB drive was a sharp blade hanging above his head and it seemed that it could cut off his head in an instant.
“Hugh, check it yourself.” Robert said coldly.
