The first thing that John decided to do was to find ways that he could retain the chefs. There was no way that he was going to allow them to go away, in a period where there were no other people that could replace them.
For that reason, he decided to resort to all means possible to make sure that he succeeded. Since there was no way that he could convince them with the benefits that he offered, then he had to use other means to do so.
During that night, he made several calls one after the other. And after that, he relaxed in his house for the night, waiting for a report the following day. He didn't believe that he was going to fail.
But when the following day came, there was actually no response from the people that he had called previously. It was as if they had forgotten about the deal that they had made.
Frowning, John took out his phone and made a call again. But, after a long period of calling, there was no response at all. This made him feel that there was something strange.
'Could it be that they have decided to give up on the mission?' John couldn't help but question himself as he sat on his sofa in his mansion. He had already spent a lot of money during the previous night, and yet, the people that he trusted to complete the mission had actually abandoned it?
He had actually hired a few thugs to go over to the homes of the chefs. He wanted to give them a warning. In this way, they were going to change their decisions about leaving the hotel.
But surprisingly, no good news arrived. And at the same time, John had already begun feeling uneasy. He was wondered what other method to use.
Shaking his head, he decided to go to the hotel, and continue thinking about other things while there. But when he got there, he was completely stunned. The reason behind this was the fact that, he received yet another report.
There were a lot of people in the hotel that had actually submitted resignation letters. And, they gave the very same reason as the master chefs.
John was stunned on the spot. He couldn't believe that as he was trying to salvage one point, then things were getting worse on the other side.
Frustrated, John finally decided to take a drastic move. This time, he wasn't going to be polite at all. Since he didn't believe the crooks that he had sent previously, this time, he decided to be a little professional.
And of course, the target this time wasn't the many people that had offered their resignation letters. Instead, it was their target, where they wanted to head to after they had resigned.
That's right. He had decided to go over and deal with the owner of the Glaze Hotel. Even though he did not know about the owner, that didn't mean that he didn't know about the caretaker. Using the caretaker, he was sure that he could easily get information about the owner.
…
It was a night of 15th September 2026. At this moment, inside his villa in Serenity Residential area, Jack was seated in the living room.
Accompanying him were three ladies, Celine, Denali, and finally Samantha. Celine would normally spend her night inside this villa some of the times. As for Denali, she was here because Jack had asked for her to be here.
Samantha on the other hand was here because of Celine. Because she was Celine's personal bodyguard, she had to follow her everywhere.
Jack had already made plans about how to deal with John. For that reason, he was currently expecting some guests to visit them. As for how they were going to arrive in the Serenity Residential area that was supposedly well guarded, that was something that could be easily solved by professionals.
Creak!
Just then, the door to the living room was opened. Even though it was locked previously, it was still opened. The three people in the living room were not surprised by that.
They looked towards the door and they saw that, a group of 10 men came in. Each and every one of them was wearing black clothes, covering their faces as well.
As they walked into the living room, they radiated with a blood thirsty aura. It was clear that they had already committed several deaths.
"Hehehe, look at what we have here. It seems that the boss was right. She's here, and there are other three people here as well." The man who was in the lead laughed as he looked at the four people that were seated in the living room.
Even though he found it strange that these four people were actually looking at them calmly, he didn't think too much about it. They had already made enough preparations to make sure that, when they came over, there was nobody who was going to disturb them.
"Eh, why are you not asking us why we came over uninvited?" After laughing for a while, the man in the lead of the gang couldn't help but ask Jack and the others.
After all, this was completely against the plot. Since they had already done this several times, they were expecting that both Jack and the three ladies were supposed to ask why they had come over.
"Since you know that you are uninvited, why don't you leave?" Jack asked nonchalantly.
"Eh?" The man who was in the lead was taken aback by Jack's question. Now, he was wondering how it came to be that Jack didn't seem afraid at all.
But after thinking about it for a while, he smiled behind the clothing that concealed his appearance. He thought of something, that Jack was only pretending to be calm simply because he was in the presence of three beautiful ladies.
Heh, even he himself believed that he could have done that in case he was in Jack's position.
"Alright then, men, beat him up." Waving his hand towards the man that were standing behind him, he instructed them as he moved to the side to watch the show.
"Yes boss." The nine men had their eyes shining with excitement. It seemed that they had developed a peculiar character. Without thinking about the issue of being fair, they all charged towards Jack.
Jack on the other hand didn't make a move. Instead, he simply said in a nonchalant voice, "Make sure that you don't kill them. Just break a few of their bones. That should be enough to teach them."
The moment that his voice fell, Samantha got to her feet. And with an incredible speed, she suddenly appeared in front of the group that was just about to arrive in front of Jack.
Bang! Boom! Thud! Crack!
With a single move for each person, they were blown backwards with either a broken hand or leg or ribs. Samantha was quite polite this time. Otherwise, had it not been for the fact that Jack had asked her not to kill them, she would have definitely killed them with a single blow.
The man who seemed in charge of the group was just about to begin criticizing Jack about talking big, was suddenly petrified. He had never expected the scene that he saw.
Just a moment ago, his men were charging towards Jack, ready to deal with him. But, in the next moment, they were all sent flying. And, their screams of agony made him feel a chill in his heart.
His breathing Immediately staggered. He swallowed hard. He had never expected that the mission that had been given to him, the one that he considered simple, was actually an iron plate.
At that moment, he had already begun considering getting away from here. He didn't see the way that the lady handled his men. And since that was the case, then it was obvious that he did not have the capabilities to deal with her.
'I surely will have to get back at John this time. How comes he sent me to deal with something like this? Does he want me to die?' The man thought to himself in anger.
"Okay then. Why don't you invite the one that sent you over? I'm sure that he is around somewhere." Jack's voice reached his ears again.
The man was flabbergasted. He couldn't believe that Jack actually knew that John had come over. Previously, they had planned to come and deal with Denali so that she could reveal who the real owner of the Glaze hotel was.
After getting information about the real owner, they were planning to go after him. And it was also going to be at that moment when John was supposed to appear.
And as for how they knew that Denali was here, they had of course been stalking her. They had followed her all the way, making sure to know where she was going to be for the night. If the place was not considered good for the work that they were supposed to do, then they would have to target her another time.
'Anyway, it doesn't matter. He is the one that sent me here. So for that reason, he has to deal with it by himself. I no longer care about the code of work again.' The man thought to himself.
"Hehehe, I will inform him to come over right now." He looked at Jack, before gazing at Samantha anxiously. He had never expected to meet a person who was inexplicably strong, and she was actually a lady. This was a rare thing to see.
He hurriedly took out his phone, and contacted John. They had left him somewhere outside, so that he could be informed when everything was ready.
When John received a call, he was surprised. After all, it had only been less than 5 minutes since these people had gone inside. Could it be that they had already succeeded?
Thinking of this, John immediately received the call. "Yes, tell me."
"Boss, we have already gotten the real boss behind the Glaze hotel. He just happened to be here. So, we don't need to go to look for him." The man replied from the other end.
Even though it was true that John was ecstatic when he received that response, but there was something that he found strange. The voice of the other person was actually shaking. He was wondering what it was.
But thinking about whom he had gone to look for, he thought that the voice might actually be shaking because of another reason. So without hesitation, he headed towards Jack's villa.
