Chapter 396 Retaliation By The Divorced Heiress

• The opulent private room was so quiet that everyone could hear their own heartbeat despite the loud music in the ACE club. Ryan had on a wide-collared silk shirt with a dark design and was dressed in a black suit. A necklace made of silver sank between his firm chest muscles. With his long legs crossed, he was sipping a glass of red wine slowly. He wiped his thumb away from a drop of brilliant red blood that flowed from the corner of his lips. Although he had a lazy, lighthearted look, there was a trace of coldness in his lovely eyes that made people shy away from him. His eyes were as cold as chasms.
• In the private area, Ryan's bodyguards were arranged in rows. Lifting his head, Ryan sipped the red wine from his glass and snapped his fingers. His bodyguards then departed. In front of Ryan, a man in ties was kneeling on the ground. His features were warped, and his face was bloated and damaged. "Mr. Hoffman... I was in error. Would you please show mercy? The man has some fractured teeth. When he talked, his mouth gushed blood and saliva. "Tsk, you're dripping blood all over the floor." Ryan gave him a disgusted look and casually raised an eyebrow. "Are you aware of the cost of the carpet in my personal space? Even if I sell your organs on the dark web, you won't be able to afford it.
• "Mr. Hoffman,..." The man rolled onto his stomach in front of Ryan, but Ryan kicked the man away with his extended legs. "Mister Hoffman... I've been with you for a long time and have never wavered in my loyalty. This time, Mr. Liam Hoffman forced me to do it! He vowed to murder me. He just asked that I report your whereabouts, nothing more. Ryan's father had only one younger brother, Liam Hoffman, who was also his second uncle. Ryan's father passed away in an airplane accident when he was seven years old, leaving Ryan, his sister, and his mother without a mother. Luckily, Ryan's father gave all of his possessions and shares to Ryan’s mother and Ryan early on.
