Chapter 544 Ask And You Shall Receive

At that moment, there were still a few guests with messy clothes in front of Jonathan. These guests had begun hiking before the sun even rose, but their paths were blocked just before they reached the summit.

“Seriously, are you barbarians?” A slightly plump woman had stepped forward to shout at the men in black suits.

“When did Summerbank Mountain become private property? We’ve been here dozens of times, and the rule is that the first three hundred highest bidders get to receive the blessings. Isn’t that right, guys?”

“Exactly! You have no right to block our paths like this.” “They’re right. Let’s not be afraid of these bullies. We’ll take them down together. There’s no way the two of them can take on so many of us.”

Only insanely powerful men like Jonathan could run all the way to that summit without breaking a sweat. Everyone else had to work extremely hard and hike for hours to reach that place at that hour.

After putting in all that hard work, anyone would be upset to hear some unauthorized personnel chase them away for no reason. A few dozen hikers, whose way had been blocked, forged ahead and tried to walk right past the two men in their way.

However, before they even got close, a crisp sound made it to their ears. Following a flash of light, the fringe of the woman leading the way was cut off.

Strands of her hair drifted as the wind carried them away. No one protested or murmured another word. The woman who suddenly lost her bangs had turned as pale as a sheet at that moment. She trembled, and her knees gave way, causing her to fall to the ground.

A pungent scent slowly spread out, prompting everyone to stumble backward. When the other hikers shifted their gaze downward, they noticed that the woman’s pants were drenched. It turned out that the woman had wet herself.

The two men in black suits each had a short dagger with a black handle with them, and they pointed their weapons at the crowd.

“Triplex Manifesta will not receive any other guests today. That is Mr. Jensen’s order. If anyone here wants to go against the Jensen family, you are welcome to drop by the Jensen residence. We will surely welcome you warmly.”

After hearing those words, the crowd began murmuring among themselves.

“The Jensen family? As in the most respectable family in Summerbank?”

“Well, duh! It’s not like there are any other families in the city with that surname.”

“Guys, the Jensen family is very powerful and has connections with both the authorities and the underworld figures. I guess we can’t go to the summit today. We can’t afford to offend the Jensen family.”

“That’s true. We can’t outbid the Jensen family anyway, so I guess there is no point in going up against the Jensen family.”

When the first person turned around to leave, everybody else followed along, but their eyes glowed with frustration.

That was how the world worked.

Many would try to fight against inequality when they were on the receiving end of unjust treatment.

However, they would back down and accept defeat the second they learned just how powerful their foes were and how futile their efforts would be.

Of course, not everyone would choose to back down and tolerate such unfair treatment.

Looking at the two men in black suits, Jonathan remained calm and indifferent.

He had engaged in wars for three years. Moreover, not long ago, he had fought against Garrison from the Osborne family, and the powerful man almost had him killed.

Compared to all that, the two bodyguards armed with a dagger were nothing to Jonathan. They couldn’t rattle Jonathan or cause a single ripple of fear in his heart.

“Oy, punk! I will not show you any mercy if you take another step forward,” warned one of the bodyguards in a hostile tone.

Jonathan slowly turned his attention to the bodyguard and replied, “You better get out of my way, or you will get yourself killed.”

Jonathan walked right past the two bodyguards after saying those words. Despite being armed with daggers, those men stood there as though they had been petrified. Neither of them dared to move a muscle.

The man before them was simply too terrifying.

Both men turned to one another and saw the immense fear oozing out of their partner’s eyes.

Bodyguards who worked for powerful families always had little concern because their employers were influential and could back them up. Some of those bodyguards might even have blood on their hands.

They were also the kind of people who knew precisely who they could and couldn’t mess with.
