The Legendary Man novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144 An Order

“Do you think you’re worthy of meeting Mr. Warhol himself?” In response to Jonathan’s remark, Henry sneered before asserting, “Young man, I don’t care who you are or the might of the person backing you up! As long as I remain in Jazona, you’ll never have the opportunity to do whatever you wish here!”

After saying that, he no longer bothered to bandy words with Jonathan.

He turned to the few middle-aged men behind him instead, demanding, “So, have you all contacted the Divine Dragon Guards?”

“Yes!” One of the middle-aged men nodded, adding, “They’ll be deploying a team over right away!”

“And have you sealed off this place?” Henry continued asking.

“Yes!” The middle-aged man again nodded and reassured, “The manager of Empyrean Palace was very cooperative in sealing off the entire restaurant with no entry or exit allowed. Without your order, no one can leave this place!”

“Great!” Henry nodded approvingly after hearing that.

Then, he shifted his gaze back to Jonathan and barked, “Young man, did you hear everything I said just now? I’d advise you to put down the gun in your hand and surrender. Otherwise, you might not even have the chance to do so when the Divine Dragon Guards arrive later!”

The Divine Dragon Guards are part of the Four Asura Guards and receive their orders straight from Zachary Lint. Even as the secretary of the governor’s office, I can only appeal to them to give me a hand. Besides, they’re not meant to maintain law and order. Instead, they unequivocally take lives whenever they’re deployed! It’s no exaggeration to say that they’re basically ruthless killing machines. Someone like him will probably be riddled with bullet holes in less than a minute when they arrive!

“I heard everything you said just now loud and clear. However, it seems that you hadn’t heard a single word I said.” Jonathan glanced at him airily when he had finished speaking and repeated, “I said that this isn’t something you can poke your nose into.”

“What if I’m determined to do just that?” Snorting, Henry declared, “I just want to see who exactly I can’t afford to offend in Jazona and the matter I’m supposed to be cowed from interfering!”

In the whole of Jazona, there are only three people whom I fear as the secretary-general of the governor’s office—Zachary Lint, Kingstone Warhol, and the head of the Divine Dragon Guards, Thierry Cloutier! Other than the three of them, who else can I not afford to offend?

“If you insist on intervening, I’ll have no choice but to question Kingstone where he got the guts to butt into my affairs!” In an instant, Jonathan’s gaze went chilly.

Even if Kingstone were standing right here, would he dare poke his nose into my business, not to mention an insignificant secretary-general?

“Hah! Did you think Mr. Warhol is someone whom you can meet and question at will?” Henry didn’t take his words seriously at all.

Jazona is a vast place, but few have the right to meet Mr. Warhol. I’ve seen all of those bigwigs and am acquainted with them. Would a snot-nosed kid like him have the right to meet Mr. Warhol? In his dreams!

“You want to question Mr. Warhol, no? Go ahead. I’ll grant you this opportunity. Do you have his phone number? Or do you need me to give it to you?” he drawled, looking at the man coldly.

“What a fool!” Jonathan merely cast him a wintry glance. Not in the mood to jabber with the man, he took out his phone and rang Zachary up.

A moment later, Zachary’s voice rang out from the other end of the phone. “Mr. Goldstein!”

“Tell Kingstone to come and see me at Empyrean Palace in ten minutes. If he’s even a second late, he doesn’t need to do so anymore!” Jonathan ordered in a frigid voice.

“Understood, Mr. Goldstein!” Zachary didn’t bother saying anything superfluous, inquiring, “Do you need me to go over as well, Mr. Goldstein?”
