The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 

“Got it. I’ll make the arrangements now.” 

His subordinate nodded and immediately left to contact Vicious Wolf. 

Deacon stood up and opened a bottle of red wine. He poured a glass and drank leisurely. His gaze was cold as he thought to himself, “Haylan, don’t blame me for being rude to you. You were the one who embarrassed me first!” 

He tasted the red wine, his gaze cold and murderous. 

Half of Declan’s assets were really too much. For this sum of money, he was willing to kill Haylan’s entire family, let alone Haylan. 

In 

any case, even if something bad happened in the end, he would not be the scapegoat! 

No matter how he thought about this deal, he would not lose 

out! 

In the security department in Mapleturz Group. 

Haylan changed into his security uniform and patrolled the corridors of the group. 

“Mom and Dad are so short of money. After work, I have to go to the bank to withdraw some money. 

“I’m sure Declan still has a lot of assets to sell. I have to go to the bank and open an account. I have to pretend to be investing in stocks to give Dad and Mom an explanation.” 

Haylan pondered as he patrolled. 

His parents were too poor. The 400 thousand dollars last 

night had frightened Felicia. 

If he suddenly took out two million dollars or millions of dollars, Felicia and Charlie would probably be scared. 

And stocks and lottery tickets were the most acceptable things for the elderly. 

After completing his patrol, Haylan returned to the security department and picked up his new glass to drink water. 

William had also returned from patrolling. 

“Mr. Jach,” Haylan greeted William with a smile. 

“I’ve told you before. In the future, when you’re in the company, stay away from me. Don’t act as if I’m very familiar with you.” 

William looked at Haylan with disdain. He glanced at Haylan coldly and left with his water bottle. It seemed that staying with Haylan for a long time was bad luck. 

“Snobbery is the way of the world.” Haylan shook his head. 

This society was too realistic! 

If one had no money or power, he was destined to be looked down upon. 

Because of this, William did not dare to get too close to Haylan. He was afraid that Haylan would implicate his interests. 

At this moment, Quentin and the other security guards returned one after another. 

They gathered in small groups and chatted, but almost everyone was isolated from Haylan. No one approached him to talk to him. 

Quentin looked at Haylan with a cold gaze. 

He had lost the previous competition with Haylan and was embarrassed. Recently, he had been thinking about how to suppress Haylan and make Haylan give in. 

Haylan glanced at them and ignored them. He looked at the time and waited for dinner. 

“This newcomer is really arrogant. He didn’t even give Mr. Hackbart a gift after working for two days.” 

“It’s obvious that this kind of person has never suffered in society. He’s destined to be useless.” 

“He doesn’t even understand the ways of the world. No wonder Mr. Hackbart made things difficult for him.” 

“Alright, keep your voices down. Let’s see how Mr. Hackbart will deal with him in the future.” 

At this moment, Wane, William, and the others were pointing at Haylan and discussing. They looked at Haylan with gloating eyes. 

In their opinion, if Haylan did not submit to Quentin, he would definitely not have an easy time in this company in the future. 

Quentin was drinking water when he suddenly realized that the water dispenser was out of water. He immediately said coldly, “Haylan, go get a bucket of water.” 

Haylan glanced at the hall of the security room and said, “There’s no more bucket water here.” 

“If there’s no water, why don’t you go look for it? Is your brain filled with sh it? Do you need me to order you to do everything?” Quentin said coldly. 

Upon hearing this, Haylan frowned slightly. 

Quentin was clearly making things difficult for him on purpose! 

“This is not my job. You can go to the logistics department!” Haylan said. 

“I’m the boss here. If I tell you to do it, you have to do it. Do you not want to work here anymore?” 

Quentin’s gaze turned cold as he said, “Do you believe that you will be fired as long as I give a call?” 

“Are you threatening me?” Haylan’s face darkened. 

“You can think of it that way,” Quentin said. 

Haylan glanced at Quentin coldly. “You’ll regret it.” 

With that, he walked out of the door. 

A security guard beside Quentin said coldly, “Haylan only does what Mr. Hackbart asks him to do. He is like a dog. He is not sharp-eyed at all.” 

This person’s name was David, and he was Quentin’s follower. 

He knew Quentin’s personality very well. After Quentin lost to Haylan last time, Quentin felt embarrassed, so Quentin. targeted Haylan. 

Therefore, in order to flatter Quentin, David directly mocked Haylan in public. 

As soon as David said these words, everyone burst into laughter. Their laughter was filled with mockery and disdain. 

Haylan stopped in his tracks and turned around to give the 

security guard a cold look. 

The security guard felt as if he had been electrocuted on the spot. He kept quiet out of fear and did not dare to say a word. 

Everyone’s laughter stopped abruptly at this moment. It was as if their throats were strangled by an invisible hand, and they could not make a sound. 

Although Haylan didn’t say anything, his gaze was as sharp as a knife. It was extremely intimidating, scaring everyone present into silence. 

“If you have anything to say, say it in front of me. It’s the act of a coward and a gossipy woman to talk behind my back!” 

Haylan glanced at these people, took his glass, and left. 

As he left, the pressure on everyone in the security 

department decreased drastically and they heaved a sigh of relief. 

“F**k, isn’t this Haylan a poor loser? Why are his eyes so scary?” 

“I’m a retired Special Forces soldier. I’ve seen many murderers and criminals, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a terrifying gaze.” 

“Just now, I felt my heart ache when he looked at me. Those are not an ordinary person’s eyes. It’s too terrifying!” 

“Could Haylan be a big shot?” 

All the security guards looked at each other with fear in their 

eyes. 

When Quentin saw this scene, his face turned ashen, and his expression was extremely ugly. 

He was clearly the supreme leader here and the strongest 

here. In the end, Haylan scared the security guards here with just a look. 

Moreover, Haylan did it in front of him! 

In his opinion, Haylan was provoking him!
