"Maybe true that I don't have a family to back me up. But, you should have at least asked about my ability before provoking me."r
The moment that he finished speaking, he kicked the table that was separating the two of them, immediately breaking it into pieces.r
Jack's action startled even the boss as he had never expected that there was a person that would dare to attack him on his turf. So, he had completely been unprepared of such a situation.r
Jack strode forward while ignoring the surprised and stunned gazes of the three. He stopped in front of the boss of the Jerk Brothers Gang, or maybe the real Jerk Brother? Whatever, Jack didn't care about the name as he spoke, "The first thing that I want from you is that, you compensate me for my losses."r
Jack's voice wasn't loud, but it could be clearly heard by the three present in the room. Jack continued, "The total loss for the previous day should be at least $210M. And today, now is already almost noon and is on a Sunday, it should be at least $90M. In total, you'll have to compensate me with at least $300M."r
"Who are you bullsh*tting?! You dare be rude in front of me, the Jerk Brother of Inchoate? It seems that you don't value your life at all!" The boss who had just regained his composure sprang to his feet as he pointed his finger at Jack as he shouted.r
"Ptui! $300M? Do you think I don't know what kind of business you're doing in this city? Not to mention $300M in one and a half days, you cannot earn $100M in a whole month!" Jerk Brother continued.r
"Furthermore, do you expect me to compensate you? Heh, you better know where you're right now, this is my territory and I have the say here. I'm the king here!" Jerk Brother continued.r
Jack ignored whatever Jerk Brother had just said as he continued with whatever it was that he was saying. "The second thing that I want, is the information about the one that sent you to disrupt my business here in the city. If they cannot look for better means and resort to such foul ones, I don't mind playing this game with them either."r
Upon seeing that Jack had ignored him, Jerk Brother was furious. He looked at big three and two -who were watching from the side, still unable to make out what they were supposed to do- and shouted, "What the f*ck are you doing there? Call all the brothers of the gang here!"r
"Y-yes boss!" Both big two and three were startled by Jerk Brother's shouted and hurriedly nodded their head before rushing out of the room.r
Jerk Brother: "…."r
Although he had said that they were supposed to call the others, he didn't mean that the both of them should leave. He had expected that only one of them would leave to call the gangsters that were around while the other one would remain to restrain Jack from taking any action.r
"Looks like those two are so thoughtful in that they knew that we need some time alone. Now that there's no more distraction, let's get serious." Jack smiled as he looked at Jerk Brother whose expression was dark at the moment.r
"What serious business do we two have to discuss? Just be patient and wait for my little brothers to come and deal with you." Jerk Brother spoke as he sat back on the couch.r
"Sorry for that, but I don't think I have that much time to wait. So, I'll go straight to the point, are you going to compensate me and provide me with the information that I want or not?" Jack shook his head as he placed his foot on the couch that Jerk Brother was seated on.r
Seeing this, Jerk Brother was obviously infuriated. This was the place that he usually sat when he was relaxing. And now, Jack had just stepped on it with his shoe.r
He was just about to reprimand him when suddenly, he felt a hand holding his collar. Jack then spoke, more coldly this time, "If you won't speak, I might as well force the words out of you."r
Pah!r
A resounding slap could be heard in the next second as Jack slapped Jerk Brother. He had put in part of his strength and as a result, a few teeth of Jerk Brother immediately loosened in his mouth. Had Jack placed a little bit more strength, Jerk Brother would have been forced to either swallow or spit out the teeth.r
"What the f*ck do y-" Jerk Brother immediately wanted to shout curses at Jack, but he wasn't given a chance at all.r
Pah! Pah! Pah!r
One slap after the other landed on his cheeks and not long after, they were swollen as if he had just stuffed his mouth with food.r
Not only that, but during the time that Jack was slapping him, he had already spat several of his teeth. The area closer to his eyes had already become black with several marks of fingers being visible on his cheeks.r
"I'll shpeak! Shtop, I sheyed that I will shpeak!" With a few of his teeth missing and his cheeks bottled from receiving slaps, Jerk Brother spoke as if he was forcing himself to speak a foreign language but his words were full of his accent.r
(I'll speak! Stop, I said that I will speak.)r
"Now that's good, why the hell did you make me waste a lot of time and effort slapping the words out of you?" Jack shook his head helplessly as he released Jerk Brother who then fell back on the couch.r
Jerk Brother wanted to cry at this moment. He was a coward who had chanced upon luck. He had won a lottery grand price of $10M. From there, he had intended to show off by hiring a few lackeys for himself.r
And as time passed by, he had hired almost a hundred of them. And, using these one hundred over men, he had decided to join the underworld. And so, the Jerk Brothers Gang was formed.r
And as years went by, their reputation grew and at the same time, their power rose and they became one of the top gangs in the city.r
It has already been seven years since then and now, the Jerk Brothers Gang had grown to such a large gang in that he could make deals with the top families.r
He had gained a lot of wealth during these years, the villa above being one of them. But knowing that he didn't have the ability to fight, he had always put a cold and calm front to give the impression that he was a person that had nothing that could scare him.r
And for such a reason, added to his brains, he was able to lead the gang to the level that it was at the moment without the underlings revolting.r
Having gotten used to simply acting tough and solving the problems that required muscles by using his minions, he had never thought of a situation where he would be beaten up to this extend.r
When the second slap landed on him, he had already decided to tell the truth. But, the slaps just kept coming without ceasing. It was only after the rate and speed at which the slaps were coming reduced that he had a chance of speaking.r
As for the ones that had gone to call the underlings, he wasn't sure if it was just taking time for them to reach here or if they were just taking their time. Anyway, since they were not here, he would have to make sure that he could get himself out of the situation that he was in.r
"So, let's start with the first thing that I wanted, will you compensate me or not?" Jack smiled as he rubbed his palms together, obviously indicating that if the answer that he received was unsatisfactory, he would rain several slaps on Jerk Brother's cheeks again.r
"C-can you rejush it? After all, the $300M ish a big amounth of maniy." Jerk Brother stuttered as he askedr
(Can you reduce it? After all, the $300M is a big amount of money.)r
Jack looked at him as he stated calmly, "You know, I have only asked for the exact amount of money that I have lost so far. I have not added the money that you're supposed to pay for making me spend a lot of time to get here. I have not added the price of dealing with the psychological torture to my employees."r
"I have not added the cost of treating my customer's psychological damage, physical damage, hunger damage, refusal damage, threat damage, shoe dam-"r
"Alright, alright, I'll pay it by neksht week. Mosht of the chings that I own aye in termsh of asshetsh. I'll have to shell them to get enough maniy for that. That'sh unlessh you can take the asshetsh." Upon seeing how the price was going to rise, Jerk Brother had no choice but to agree. r
(Alright, alright, I'll pay it by next week. Most of the things that I own are in terms of assets. I'll have to sell them to get enough money for that. That's unless you can take the assets.)r
'I can barely accept the one about you spending time to come here personally. But, what's up with this customer damage? It's not like you'll give them the money anyway. Refusal damage? Hunger damage? F*ck! Even shoe damage?! Does any of these exist?' Jerk Brother wailed inside his mind.r
"That's good then. I'll just take the money. And, you better not try running away because I can still find you no matter where you hide." Jack gave a warning before continuing with narrowed eyes, "Who's the one that gave you the mission?"r
Jerk Brother felt his body shudder under Jack's gaze. All the same, he collected himself together and replied, "I don't know, shamwan coyed and gave me the mishon. He transhfaad the maniy to my account after we came to an agyeement."r
(I don't know, someone called and gave me the mission. He transferred the money to my account after we came to an agreement.)r
Jerk Brother replied. When he saw Jack's eyes still on him, he continued, "The detailsh of the number were encrypted sho, I didn't shee the number of the shender. Ash for the account that shent the maniy, I don't know the owner either."r
(The details of the number were encrypted so, I didn't see the number of the sender. As for the account that sent the money, I don't know the owner either.)r
Jack thought for a moment and asked for the phone. After looking at the call logs, he found that the phone didn't show who the caller was, it just showed that it was a private number.r
After a while, Jack opened the bank message and looked at it. The account was registered under a person surnamed Hosda. The account number was also there. But, Jack was sure that there was no family with the surname Hosda in Inchoate city that had the abilities to easily pay $20M. Now, who was this person.r
Jack then remembered something. He took out his phone and sent Denali the details that he'd gathered and asked her to investigate it. Now, he just had to wait for the results.r
