Chapter 429 - Pissing them off

Meanwhile, a man wearing all-black hiding in the dark behind the bushes a few meters away from the perimeter fence of an industrial warehouse near the boundary of Camelia Province and Lantana Province.

Camelia and Lantana Provinces were a mountainous region on the northern part of Lotus City together with Naupaka Country which is on the Western part of Lotus City.

"I see a bus entering the gate going to one of the loading docks. Do we have visuals of what is going on inside?" The man said in a low voice on a secret communicating device.

"Hush. I am working on it." A woman replied from the communicating device. "Ok, Blowfish. I got visuals. There were about 50 to 60 people lined up preparing for transport."

"Got it Dart Frog. You are the best." The person with an alias Blowfish continued watching through a binocular with a night vision until he saw a public bus drive out of the loading dock.

"Cobra, the subject is on the move," Blowfish said.

"I'm on position." Blowfish heard Cobra replied after a while then he silently stood up and walks away from that place.

The next morning. "President Martin, the mission was successfully implemented," Peter said as he stood behind President Martin in the balcony of his office while having breakfast with Madam Victoria.

"What should we do with those people?" Peter asked. Leo is standing not far from them watching the conversation between President Martin and his right-hand man with a stern face.

"Send them for a general checkup then find a place for them." President Martin replied after taking a bite of bacon.

"Got it. Anything else?" Peter asked.

"Mm…I almost forgot. Jack Ogden has a Holland and Holland Deluxe Double Rifle in one of his collections. I want it." He said with a slight curve on the corner of his mouth.

Madam Victoria looked at her husband indifferently with a raised brow. "Since when did you became a gun enthusiast?" No one in the family is a gun enthusiast although Madam Victoria and Elder Do were a known sharpshooter while J's interest lies in archery.

President Martin laughed ecstatically. "I just wanted to pissed him off. After all, that Holland and Holland Deluxe Double Rifle cost 1 million dollars and it is in the top five most expensive items in the black market."

"Would that be all President Martin?" Peter said.

"Yes, thank you, Peter." He replied then his gaze landed on Leo.

"Leo, how's it going on their side?" President Martin asked Leo knowing that he still has his moles and bug around the Novus Rex's headquarters and facilities even Alex Ogden's penthouse.

"They are enraged," Leo said impassively.

"What would you expect? They probably lost millions of dollars in just one night." Madam Victoria said nonchalantly as she sips her coffee.

"Well, they asked for it. Keep your ears open Leo. Let's see what are they planning." President Martin said with an evil smile.

….

On the 58th floor of Lotus Skyline, Alex Ogden is drinking his whiskey as breakfast while talking to his grandfather.

"The Twelve Army and Robin Hood Society were obviously working together to pull us down." Alex heard the annoyed voice of his grandfather from the other line.

"I know." He said. His mood is even grimmer.

"You know?! Then what are you doing slacking off in your penthouse? Waiting for Jenny Do to just drop by?!"

Alex Ogden pinched the space between his brows. His headache is starting to build up. He hasn't got a sleep ever since he heard the bad news and since then, he only had whiskey on his stomach. He sighed and leaned back on his armchair.
