The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 545

Chapter 545 

Haylan’s words were very calm, without any lethal aura or indifference. 

Haylan’s gaze was also very calm and normal. Haylan just quietly looked at Leslie. Haylan’s entire body didn’t show any signs of aura. It was as if an ordinary superior looking for an ordinary security guard to talk to. 

However, this calm behavior made the pressure on Leslie multiply. Leslie’s heart raced and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. 

Leslie felt guilty and did not dare to look into Haylan’s eyes. Leslie lowered his head and said in a trembling voice, “Mr. Jaber, I don’t understand what you mean.” 

When Haylan saw Leslie like this, he understood immediately. Haylan continued to drink coffee and even poured coffee for Leslie. Haylan said calmly. “Are you sure you don’t want to say it? If I say it, the consequences might be…” 

At this point, Haylan did not continue. 

Plop. 

Leslie could no longer withstand the silent pressure and had a mental breakdown. His entire body trembled as he knelt down and cried for mercy. “Mr. Jaber, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Please be magnanimous and let me go.” 

“What did you do wrong?” Haylan asked calmly. 

“Actually, I’m the same as Rayner. I’m an undercover agent arranged by Philip in the security department to monitor your every move. I shouldn’t have colluded with Philip. 1… I deserve to die. 

“But I promise I’ve never done anything to harm you.” 

Leslie was so terrified that his words were incoherent. 

Hearing this, Haylan suddenly understood. 

It turned out that Philip had planted so many undercover agents in the security department. No wonder Philip could track- their every move, 

In fact, Haylan had no idea that Leslie was an undercover agent. 

However, when Haylan was pretending to be dead, he saw Leslie playing with his phone. 

The head of a department had died, yet Leslie still had the leisure to play with his phone. There must be something wrong. 

That was why Haylan called Leslie in and pressured Leslie to say it himself. 

“Are you sure you haven’t done anything to let me down? Haylan’s tone and expression turned cold. His gaze became as sharp as a knife as Haylan stared coldly at Leslie. 

In an instant, the pressure on Leslie increased exponentially. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead again. He hurriedly raised his finger and swore, “Mr. Jaber. I swear to God that I really didn’t do anything to let you down. 

“I.. I’ve only been reporting your whereabouts to Mr. Labenz. I have no intention of harming you. 

“… I really didn’t do anything. 

“Please! Please let me go.” 

Leslie was terrified and kept begging for mercy. 

News of Mapleturz Group spread very quickly. Although Leslie was only a security guard in the security department, he also received the news that Philip had been fired and injured immediately. 

This meant that Philip had suffered a crushing defeat in this battle. 

Therefore, in the face of Haylan’s pressure, Leslie directly told him everything he knew. 

Haylan drank coffee. When Haylan heard Leslie’s words, he frowned slightly and said calmly, “Don’t worry. I won’t do – anything to you. 

“However, you have to pay the price for being an uncover agent and monitoring me.” 

With that, Haylan suddenly struck Leslie’s chest. 

Leslie’s entire body trembled. He felt as if something was flowing out of his body. A weak stream of energy flowed out of his ears and nostrils. 

However, Leslie did not feel any pain at all. It was as if he had never been hit before. 

“Although you’ve never betrayed me, you’re never on my side. Therefore, you can’t use the Heart Cultivation I taught Anymore.” 

Haylan put down his cup and said calmly. “This palm strike only dispersed the internal energy that you condensed, 

preventing you from cultivating Heart Cultivation in the future, 

“However, it has no effect on your daily life or physical fitness. 

“I won’t make things difficult for you. After you go out later, you can resign yourself.” 

Leslie felt as if he had been pardoned. He hurriedly bowed. “Thank you, Mr. Jaber. Thank you very much. I’ll resign immediately.” 

With that, Leslie quickly stood up and turned to leave. 

Haylan did not hold Leslie accountable and even asked Leslie to resign himself. Leslie was already lucky enough. At least, it didn’t harm his reputation badly. 

Haylan watched Leslie leave with a deep gaze. 

Philip had already been fired and was injured. He could no longer appear in front of Haylan and Reign. 

Logically speaking, Reign and Haylan’s crisis was over. 

However, Haylan felt that he had missed some details. Something had been overlooked. 

“What exactly is it? Haylan frowned. 

Haylan drank coffee and pondered for three minutes. His eyes slowly lit up as he knocked on the table and said in a low voice, “I see. I neglected the most important question! Albert!” 

Albert was able to fight his way out in Lightdom City, leading the Labenz family to the ranks of first-rate families in Lightdom City. Although Albert lost to Robert, he could still protect the Labenz family’s assets. How could Albert be a stupid man?
