At LD city international hotel.
Jack was stunned when he saw Aiden and Lone Wolf. Both of them were sulking and there were some bruises on Lone Wolf’s face.
“What the hell happened?” Jack became upset.
He could tolerate it when the other side insulted him but now that they had beaten up his man, then there was no need to be gracious anymore.
Being immersed in the real estate business for so many years, Jack was very familiar with how land was acquired. When he was the deputy general manager of DT, he represented his boss to secure parcels of land. Typically the bosses of the key real estate companies would sit together to smoke and drink wine as they discussed how they distributed the land. All the price bidding sessions were just for show.
Aiden was unable to handle this and that was why he needed DT’s support. From the looks of Lone Wolf’s injuries, it was obvious that the negotiations had failed miserably.
“Mr. Hughes, I’m sorry that I didn’t look after Lone Wolf.” Aiden rubbed his hands and was very apologetic.
Lone Wolf was one of his fighters at the Underground Fight Club. He left the club to work for Jack after they met there. Aiden was very clear that the relationship between Jack and Lone Wolf was more than just boss and subordinate.
After he paused and confirmed that Jack’s expression didn’t change, Aiden continued to explain, “This time we are competing with the largest real estate company in LD city for this parcel of land. LD Real Estate has no equal and is an oligarchy. Their boss is Lyndall Long and is also the local gangster. He is ruthless.”
“That piece of land is at the heart of LD city and extremely valuable. That’s why LD real estate also wants it. Initially, I was willing to compromise to get this piece of land but their attitude was very brutal.” Aiden then laughed awkwardly, “Tell you the truth, we tried twice but didn’t get to meet Lyndall and only saw his subordinate. Lone Wolf was also hurt by his subordinate.”
“Did his subordinate demand that I kneel and apologize?” Jack asked.
Setting aside the background of Lyndall, when his subordinate resorted to violence, it also indicated that normal methods of negotiations were out of the question.
“Yes.” Aiden nodded, “That person is called Willy Parker and is Lyndall’s most abled subordinate. He is also known as the top fighter of LD city. He is ruthless and can fight rather well.”
Jack laughed, stretched himself, and then said, “Let’s go. I’d like to see how capable he is.”
Aiden’s eyes lit up and quickly stood up, “Willy is at the Parker Hotel, that’s his territory.”
“Mr. Hughes.” Lone Wolf was worried, “Why van we ask Brent to come?”
Jack stopped and asked, “Are you doubtful of my fighting skills?”
Lone Wolf shook his head, “These kinds of things should be done by Brent.”
“He beat up my man and I can’t beat him in return?” Jack retorted.
Then, Jack looked at Aiden and said, “I’m not interested in Willy. I want to go directly to Lyndall.”
Aiden was shocked and then said helplessly, “Willy had always been doing things on behalf of Lyndall. In LD city, only Willy and very few people know the whereabouts of Lyndall.
“Then let’s go to the Parker Hotel.
Half an hour later.
Jack, Lone Wolf, and Aiden arrived at the Parker Hotel. Parker Hotel is a four-star hotel.
