Chapter 139 Fifty Percent Total Assets Compensation

Seeing Celine nod her head, Denali explained. "That's right. I was looking for all the information about the one that had the intention of having him killed. I just arrived tonight and he thought that it would be good if I could find the information that I could tonight."r

With Denali's ability to detect the loyalty of people towards Jack, she wasn't worried that Celine would actually reveal the information that she was giving her.r

As a precaution, she had already made sure not to mention things like; they had already found who it was behind the incident and so on. After all, although Celine might actually not betray Jack, who could guarantee that she couldn't talk to one of her friends about it?r

And once the friend knew that Jack already knew who it was that had sent an assassin, maybe that friend was actually amongst the spies that were sent to keep a tab on Jack's location.r

Since the first assassination attempt failed, who could say that there would be no second attempt? Now that the other party knew that Jack was strong, they would send someone who was stronger.r

But, although Denali believed that Jack could deal with the assassins, it would be too annoying once the flies start bugging him. They couldn't kill him, but they would waste a lot of his time that he would have to spend in dealing with them.r

"Have you found who it was that sent the assassin? Could it be Collins?" Celine asked again. She had thought things through. During the morning hours and part of the afternoon, she had been together with Jack.r

And Collins was trying to pursue her. Since he could resort to r*ping her just to make sure that she became his woman, she thought that it would be possible for him to actually try eliminating Jack as he could be considered as a rival.r

"Not really. He's not the one. But as for who it was, I actually can't tell you unless boss gives me permission to." Denali shook her head in response.r

Collins and Brenda were two completely unrelated people. In fact, Collin's status was far higher than Brenda's. So, if he was going to hire assassins, he would definitely look for someone with great combat power as compared to viper.r

Seeing that Denali had no intention of telling her more, Celine decided not to ask. Still, she was curious about Denali. So, she went ahead and chatted with her, trying to know her.r

Although Denali had said that she was Jack's assistant, who said that she couldn't actually become Jack's woman. Considering that she was with Jack even late at night, she had the biggest chance of actually winning Jack over.r

Thinking of this, she suddenly regretted not informing Jack about her feelings. Now that she had missed that opportunity, she decided that she would have to look for another one. She couldn't let another person beat her to it.r

After getting back to her room, she found that Wendy and Angy were there. They were anxious from their expressions and they seemed ready to leave the room.r

When they saw Celine coming in, they were relieved. "Thank goodness you are okay. What were you doing outside at this time of the night? And you even left your phone here." Angy began complaining.r

"Well, something happened, and it wasn't pleasant at all." Celine shook her head as she thought of her experience tonight.r

"What happened?" Wendy asked.r

Celine wanted to explain what had happened but was beaten to it by a question posed by Wendy. "You…what are you doing here?"r

This question was meant for Denali who had come in with Celine. The two girls were concerned about Celine that they hadn't noticed her when Denali entered the room. It was only now that Wendy noticed her. And of course, she could still remember her as she had seen Denali behind Jack back in venture city.r

Angy was also surprised to see Denali. She wondered what she was doing here. She couldn't connect it to Celine coming with her.r

"Oh, that's Denali. She's Jack's personal assistant. She was the one that beat up some guys to protect me." Celine introduced. "Denali, these two are my best friends and sisters, Wendy and Angy." Celine said as she pointed at the two girls.r

"I have seen her before in venture city. So it turns out that she is his assistant. No wonder." Both Angy and Wendy could finally understand why she was present in the same suite as Jack back then. A suite in a five star hotel had several rooms. So, it wasn't necessarily true that the two of them had actually spent a night in the same room.r

"You guys know each other?" Celine asked.r

"Yes and no. We have only seen her back in venture city." Angry said.r

"What were you implying by 'she was the one that beat up some guys to protect me' phrase before?" Wendy asked.r

Celine went ahead to explain what had happened back at the playground. As for why she had gone to the park at night, she simply used the previous excuse, she needed to get some fresh air.r

The two girls were completely infuriated when they heard about what had happened. They really wanted to rush to the playground and beat Collins up.r

In the end, when they heard that Jack was there dealing with him, they calmed down a little. At this moment, even Angy who had a bad impression of Jack finally saw him in a different light.r

What's more, they felt grateful towards him for saving Celine from the incident. They also thanked Denali. And just like Celine, they no longer treated her as a stranger.r

…r

As the girls discussed their things, Jack on the other hand was just beginning to deal with the scumbag and his lackeys.r

He looked at the guys that were still playing dead on the ground and snorted loudly. "Do you think you can play dead with me? You only had your hands broken, if you don't want to lose your other three arms, better get off the ground at this instance."r

When they heard Jack's words, none of them doubted that he would actually do what he had just said. Instead, they got onto their feet as fast as they could.r

Their rapid movements made their hands that were broken to twist, causing them immense pain. Even so, none of them dared to make any loud sound for the fear of what would happen to them once they annoyed Jack.r

Although there were several young masters that had the worst pain tolerance, when they witnessed Collins third arm being broken and heard his screams, none of them dared to scream for the fear of facing the same fate.r

Seeing that everyone was on his feet, Jack spoke. "Although it's true that you guys were only doing things according to another person's will, you cannot be forgiven."r

"You all know what was going to happen when you held her down. Your hands have been broken because you dared to lay your hands on her. If, and I repeat if, something happened to her, believe me when I say that I would have made sure that you all die a cruel death."r

Facing Jack's cold and indifferent eyes plus his words, the group of youths shivered in fright. At this time, they were all soaked in cold sweat. None of them believed that they could beat Jack when they were at their peak, not to mention now that they didn't have hands.r

A person that could easily destroy such a huge door, that was someone that they dared not to face. And thinking of the time that they had the intention of beating him up, they couldn't help but thank Wendy in their hearts.r

Had Wendy not stopped them from attacking Jack, they would have really suffered a lot.r

"Now, as compensation for the psychological trauma that you guys caused her, I want you all to make sure that you submit fifty percent of your family wealth to the Gravy family. Otherwise, I will make sure that your families go bankrupt." Jack continued.r

Jack's words immediately made the young masters frown. Even though they were afraid of Jack, they couldn't accept what he had just said. Fifty percent of their families' assets? Not to mention ten percent, even one percent wasn't something that they could handover.r

"I… I'm sorry but I… I can't do that. My parents will kill me if I ask for fifty percent of the family wealth." One of the youths pieced together all the courage in his heart and said these words.r

The other young masters nodded as if to confirm that whatever that guy had said was true for them as well.r

"Oh, is that so? I don't care how you guys are going to do it or if you can't do it. You better try to find a way to submit the fifty percent as compensation. This is me being lenient to you. Not to mention fifty percent, I might as well take all of your families' properties and hand them over." Jack sneered as he replied.r

Before the youths could say another word, Jack waved his hand and said, "You can leave now. You have one month. If a month goes by and you haven't taken action yet, I'll make sure to pay you a visit."r

He could remember each of their faces. With his sharp memory, he could remember them as clear as day. So, as long as he asked Wendy and the other two girls, he would be able to get their information.r

Seeing that Jack was serious, the youths dragged their wounded bodies out of the playground. There, they met the guards who had come to see what was going on.r

But no matter how they tried questioning the youths on what was going on, the youths simply pointed at the playground with their chins and said no word.r

Although they were clearly badly injured, they didn't dare to accept the help of the guards. As long as a guard dared to approach them, they ran away.r

And knowing that the cause of all of this was present in the playground, the guards gave up on them and headed towards the playground's entrance. They were dumbfounded when they saw the broken double door.r

Swallowing hard, they looked at each other before entering.r

The moment that they stepped into the playground, they heard the sound of a person screaming. The scream was so loud in that they were forced to close their ears using their hands.
