Chapter 42
Chapter 42
Julian was really frightened. In the past, he was fearless when bullying people, and the people he bullied did not dare to speak out and kept a low profile.
This had made Julian become arrogant, and he felt that there was no one in the world whom he dared not bully.
Nevertheless, Wayne really frightened Julian. Wayne wanted to end his life and was not afraid of death. Julian wondered If it was worth losing a life. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Julian thought it was not worthwhile. He had a wealthy life!
There was another problem. Julian had brought more than a dozen hatchet men here, but they could not beat Wayne. Wayne was not simple. He was the kind of “expert” in rumors. Although Julian’s hatchet men were fierce and could deal with ordinary people, their skills were not enough to deal with the experts.
Julian could not defeat Wayne and was not as cruel as the latter either. What else could he use to suppress Oliver?
“I… I admit defeat. I’ve lost. Oliver, I’ll go. I won’t bother you in the future…”
Oliver stopped Wayne and said coldly to Julian, “I hope you can remember it. I have no grudge against you, and you want to murder me in Manchernius. I’ll remember it. In the future, if I can’t deal with your family, I think my friends definitely have no problem dealing with you. If you’re not afraid of one life for another, just come. I’ll be waiting!”
“No, I won’t!” Julian retreated with a pale face and then ran away. He did not care about the dozen subordinates who were knocked down by Wayne.
Seeing Julian run away, the dozen of people who were knocked down by Wayne felt indescribably upset and depressed. They hurriedly struggled to get up and escaped.
Fabian/contemptuously spat out, “He has no morals at all. I’m sorry for you all!”
Although Fabian was an old man, he had morals. Just now, the first thought in his mind was not to run away alone, but to lie on Oliver’s body and block him from being hit.
Oliver was also touched. Although Fabian was greedy for money, he would not lose his morals. Seeing Fabian take the hit for him, Oliver thought that Fabian would be a lifelong friend.
Looking at Wayne’s dumb expression, Oliver could not help but praise him. “Wayne, your skill is like a supreme presence in a fantasy novel!”
Fabian was also surprised and said to Wayne, “Dude, my best friend said you can fight, but I didn’t expect that fight like this. Haha, I won’t be afraid of being bullied anymore!”

Wayne was still dumb and said, “They are ordinary hooligans. I learned combat arts from childhood. I’m a scout in the army and learn how to murder people. These people are no threats to me.”
Oliver shook Wayne’s hand and said sincerely, “Enough. We will do our business together in the future. We will not violate laws and disciplines and earn money seriously and honestly. We will offend nobody unless we’re offended!”
Wayne did not say anything but nodded vigorously.
When Oliver was saying that he was going to register a company, two more people came upstairs.
Wayne took a glance and whispered, “Mr. Eastwood, the man behind knows combat arts, but I can beat him.”
Oliver waved his hand. He knew the man who came. One was Gunther, Hailey’s father and the other one was Gunther’s bodyguard.
Gunther came closer and said to Oliver, “Oliver, talk to me alone.”
Oliver pondered for a while and then nodded.
Wayne and Fabian walked away, but Wayne secretly moved closer to Gunther’s bodyguard.
If Gunther’s bodyguard suddenly took action, Wayne was confident to stop him immediately.
He did not have to worry about Gunther. Gunther was a plump and old man, so he might not be Oliver’s rival if he tried hard.
Oliver looked at the expressionless Gunther in front of him and said, “Mr. Fox, please.”
Gunther coughed and said in a deep voice, “Oliver, I’m here to tell you one thing. My daughter Hailey is engaged to Julian. With my financial resources, her store was just for her to play with. The Fox family and the Xanders family are compatible. I won’t elaborate on it, and you should understand it. I will ask someone to close down Hailey’s store. Have another store yourself. I hope you won’t disturb Hailey again.”
Oliver’s heart sank. Although he did not have a personal relationship with Hailey, Hailey was the one whom he appreciated most from the beginning to now. Somehow, Gunther’s words made him feel sad!
After a while, Oliver nodded and answered, “Okay!”
Gunther also nodded and said softly, “People are different in social classes. Excluding the relationship between you and Hailey, if you need any help, you can come to me, and I will help you.”
“Never mind. Thank you, Mr. Fox!” Oliver refused Gunther without even thinking about it.
Gunther nodded and left.
Seeing Gunther and his bodyguard leave, Fabian and Wayne came over. Fabian looked at the stairs and asked Oliver, “Who is he? What is his job?”
Oliver did not hide from them. “He is Gunther, Hailey’s father and the richest man in Jeahron. He came to tell me that he wanted me not to meet Hailey again… All right, Fabian. Let’s get a business license and stop partnering with Hailey.”
“He looks down on people…” Fabian immediately spat out, but he still could not talk badly about Hailey.
Hailey was beautiful and generous, and her personality was just like Oliver’s.
Fabian spat and said, “It’s strange. How could such an old man give birth to such a good daughter?”
After finishing the company registration in the afternoon, Oliver found a restaurant to have dinner with Fabian and the others. Then, Oliver’s phone rang. It was Queenie.
Oliver answered without thinking too much.
Queenie’s voice was a little anxious. “Mr. Eastwood, what’s going on in our store? Ms. Fox isn’t here and I can’t call her. Mr. Fox, Ms. Fox’s father, sent someone to close our store and said that the store was closed and let us find another way… I didn’t understand. People closed the store because of poor business, but our store is doing well. Didn’t we receive 20 million dollars these days? Why is the store closed?”
Oliver pondered for a while before answering, “Queenie, the reason for closing the store… I guess it’s Mr. Fox’s family matter. Maybe Ms. Fox will get married. In short, it’s hard to explain. However, I happened to register a new company today. If you guys want, come to work in my company. I’ll double your salary and benefits.”
“Really?”
Queenie and the others did not want to leave Hailey’s store because Hailey was nice and generous. They were paid higher than ordinary jobs, and their work was light and leisurely.
Of course, they wanted to work for a long time, but Hailey’s family did not lack money. They had no choice if Hailey’s family wanted to close the shop.
Now hearing Oliver say that he started a new company and continued to hire them with double salaries and benefits, they instantly burst into cheers!
