When the cars stopped beside John, two men, who appeared to be bodyguards, got out of the
vehicles. One of them said in a respectful manner, “Mr. Constance, our master would like to meet you.
Will you come with us?”
Without moving, John questioned with a smile, “What if I refuse?”
The bodyguards traded glances, and one of them said, “Mr. Constance, please don’t make it hard for
us. We’re just executing the order.”
With a sneer, John fished out his phone and dialed a number—he was calling Old Mr. Bailey.
When the call was connected, Old Mr. Bailey asked smilingly, “John, are you done with your business?”
In a mild tone, John replied, “Mr. Bailey, if you have anything to tell me, just speak to me over the
phone. There’s no need to send two men over. If the passersby see this, they might think I’m troubled
by some thugs, which isn’t good for my reputation.”
Old Mr. Bailey guffawed. “You’re exaggerating. I just want to invite you over for a cup of tea. You must
have misunderstood my subordinates because they’re not good at expressing themselves. I assure you
that they’re not thugs. We live in a society governed by law, and we’re all law-abiding citizens. Do you
agree with me?”
“Oh…” John replied in a perfunctory and languid manner. He then continued, “I’m sorry that I’m not
going to your place for a cup of tea because I’ve been suffering from insomnia recently, and my doctor
has advised against drinking anything that contains caffeine.”
Hearing his resolute rejection, Old Mr. Bailey fell silent.
In a confident manner, John put on a smile and went on to say, “If there’s nothing important you need to
tell me, I’m hanging up the call now. I’m sure you’re aware that I’m burdened with some projects
currently, which are all taxing tasks.”
Old Mr. Bailey understood the hidden meaning in his words as the Baileys had failed in their attempt to
secure some projects recently, so they had no project at hand at the moment. As a result, their
company’s business was going downhill.
Thinking of that, Old Mr. Bailey gritted his teeth. John wouldn’t treat me like this in the past. As
expected, there’s something wrong with him. It seems that I was right to send him a message to probe
him last night.
Before Old Mr. Bailey could speak, John directly hung up the call and waved his phone at the
bodyguards. Following that, he got into his car, started the engine, and stepped on the gas pedal.
The bodyguards exchanged glances, not understanding what John meant. They knew that John gave
Old Mr. Bailey a call, but did their boss let him go just like this? After John’s car was out of sight, one of
them dialed their boss’s number.
When Old Mr. Bailey accepted the call, he directly reprimanded them and hung up the call. The
bodyguards gazed at each other, not understanding what was going on.
On the other hand, John was heading for Logan’s clubhouse.
When he arrived, Lola still wasn’t there yet. Having washed up and gotten changed, Logan came
downstairs. Seeing John, he asked, “What’s wrong? You look grumpy. Did anyone upset you?”
Following that, he added, “You’re a prestigious man yourself, so I can’t think of anyone else other than
Sophia who dares to annoy you.”
Gazing at Logan’s mischievous expression, John was rendered speechless.
Having decided not to play along with him, he directly said, “I told my subordinates to inspect the
shadow bank last night, and they found a basement that had been emptied out. However, perhaps the
bank’s employees were in a rush, so they accidentally left behind something, which was then
discovered by my men.”
