Chapter 43 A Big Short's Prisoner
- Hunter was the head of a financial conglomerate. When he received a call from Leonard, he was in a coffee shop in Heron Shore Town, 300 thousand feet away from Newden City, discussing a business deal worth two billion dollars with Rudolf Olsen, the young master of the Olsen family. Several burly bodyguards dressed in black stood guard outside, vigilant and alert. Professional servers wearing dress controlled the temperature of the coffee carefully. After hanging up the phone, Hunter became serious instantly. He told the beautiful female secretary who was standing not far behind him, “Arrange for a few helicopters immediately. I need to go to Newden City.” “What?” The secretary’s face was full of disbelief. After all, they had only discussed half of a deal worth two billion dollars. Many noble families had tried to get a piece of the pie, but Hunter’s strength was what ultimately convinced Rudolf to choose him. How come Hunter was suddenly abandoning Rudolf and heading to Newden City? What on earth happened? Unless it was a matter of great importance, Hunter would not be so urgent. “Mr. Olsen, it seems that we can only talk about the business at another time. I have some things to go to Newden City. I’m really sorry.” Hunter said. Rudolf was holding a coffee cup in his hand, with a slight displeasure on his face.
- “Mr. Lucas, do you know how many people are trying to get in on this deal? Are you really going to leave me here?” Hunter glanced at the dissatisfied Rudolf and sneered. Indeed, the Olsen family was a top-tier family, no less impressive than the Lucas family. However, Rudolf was merely a scion of the third branch of the Olsen family who happened to be in charge of this deal. He was flattered by Hunter’s compliments earlier and thought highly of himself. “I’m going to meet an important person this time, so I hope Mr. Olsen can understand me.” After Hunter finished speaking, he strode outside. “What if I don’t understand?” Rudolf suddenly asked loudly. “If you don’t understand, then get lost. If you keep talking, I’ll give you a slap!” Hunter suddenly looked fierce. The coffee cup in Rudolf’s hand fell to the ground with a sound of a clack. In an instant, he was intimidated by Hunter’s aura and didn’t dare to say a word. The secretary followed behind Hunter tremblingly and made a phone call to arrange everything. Walking out of the coffee shop, the secretary couldn’t help asking, “Mr. Lucas, everything has been arranged, but do you really want to go in person?”
- Hunter looked up at the sky and heaved a sigh of relief. “I’ve been waiting for this call for a long time.” He said, with a hint of nostalgia and excitement in his voice. Blueville City was the secret training base of the Eagles Corps. The Eagles Corps had assembled countless top king of soldiers. It held a very special position on the central battlefield. And Ernest, nicknamed Eagle, was the commander of the Eagles Corps. He had carried out many extremely dangerous missions and achieved great success, making him a critical asset to the country. If it hadn’t been for the incident where he had killed prisoners of war, he would have been promoted to a two-star general by now. At this moment in the base, all the soldiers were sweating profusely in training. The door to the command center suddenly opened, and Eagle walked out with a serious expression. “The Governor of Newden City is quite courageous. He even dared to detain my boss. This is an act of defiance against me.” Eagle slapped his hand, and everyone stopped their training and gathered in front of him. Eagle gazed upon the fifty or so men standing before him, all of whom had risked their lives alongside him and were the soldiers he had trained and led to become the king of soldiers. “I heard that you guys have wanted to meet the legendary master I’ve been talking about. Now I’ll take you to Newden City. to meet him. How about that?” Eagle asked. “Got it!” Everyone shouted in unison. Each one of them was thrilled beyond words.
