Chapter 30: It backfired

"So, what you're saying is that the reason he looks down on us is because he has cooperated with Senator Kennedy?"

After everyone took Alex's text message and read it, the scene couldn't help but fall into a long silence.

Finally, Gerald, who had been humiliated by Killian at the beginning, took the initiative and spoke angrily.

"That's not what I meant, it's the truth, Gerald, watch your tone!"

"You're a bit blind now." After hearing Gerald's angry interrogative tone, Alex spoke up forcefully again.

"Okay, I think what we should be concerned about now is our next step, what should we do now?"

"If he really is in cahoots with Congressman Kennedy, unless the man in Washington can be persuaded, any other force coming won't be of any use."

Watching the two people in the confrontation, Frances Henry stood up and changed the subject.

And indeed, after hearing Frances Henry's words, the two did not continue arguing, but calmed down one after the other.

After all, this is the first problem they have to face and, whatever happens, there must be a solution.

"First check, use your connections to find out if he has cooperated with Congressman Kennedy."

"If so..."

"Then use legitimate methods to deal with him, we must not allow his company to thrive!"

"Otherwise, our company and all of us here will have to resign and everyone must know what the consequences will be."

In the middle of the sentence, Alex couldn't help but clench his teeth and then spoke to everyone.

You should know they are just CEOs, to put it bluntly, they are the ones forced to talk things out.

If the company develops steadily, naturally they will benefit and everyone will make money together.

But if the company loses money and the loss is due to collapse, everyone present will drown along with their relatives and friends.

It is precisely because they hold high positions that they understand the cruelty of the big fish behind the scenes.

They don't care about right or wrong, or what you do, they only care about the one issue, and that is whether you make money for them.

Compared to those real big fish, even the president is just for show.

"If that's the case, then Killian must die no matter what."

After hearing Alex's words, Gerald couldn't help but speak harshly.

Among all those present, if there was someone who most wanted to kill Killian, it was definitely him.

After all, what happened this morning would be a great insult to anyone, let alone the president of a publicly traded company like him.

"What do you mean? Send an assassin?"

"If Kennedy knew, I'm afraid we'd have to resign without the people behind the company taking action."

Regarding Gerald's suggestion, Frances Henry, who was still rational, immediately asked in response.

"No, I secretly nurtured a gang leader, I have a one-way connection with him throughout the process.

No one can know about me and now he has control of all of New York, as long as he acts."

"Killian must die!" Gerald spoke harshly.

After hearing Gerald's words, everyone was too sensible and didn't continue asking more questions.

After all, no one here has cultivated underground forces, not to mention Gerrard, who almost said it openly.

Who else could now be the biggest gang leader in New York but that man?

As for his ability, everyone also noticed it.

If you dare to fight and fight hard, it's very difficult to reach the position of the underground throne by yourself, even with Gerald's support.

In this way, this meeting also ended as arranged by Gerrard.

...

New York.

'Boom!'

Accompanied by a sudden loud noise, in a villa, a man who was 2 meters tall and weighed over 400 pounds looked fiercely into the distance like a male lion.

In front of him, a man in a suit lay lifeless on the ground.

He looked at the man in front of him with horror and wanted to beg for mercy, but was afraid of annoying him and being slapped to death.

Then he trembled on the ground.

"You come from that guy, Alfred Gerrard, who made arrangements for me, right?"

"You know? For so long, how much I have endured to get that old man's support?

"Haha, I'm really confused, a businessman who can't even recognize his own identity actually wants me to deal with someone protected by a high-ranking congressman."

"Do you think I don't know what he's planning?"

"I'm afraid that as soon as I finished this matter, some enthusiastic citizen reported it and dragged me to take the blame."

"But... that's about it."

Ignoring completely the man lying on the ground, the gang boss at that time, Kingpin, the underground emperor of New York, looked into the distant sky and whispered in that

low but extremely aggressive voice.

For him, after relying on Alfred Gerald's power to control the entire underground gang in New York, he completely lost his value.

And the next step... he will start to clear his name and run for Congress, mayor, or even president.

Sooner or later, he believed, both the underworld and the justice of the United States would be his, and he himself would rule the world.

He will be a true emperor worthy of his name!

"Drag him and feed him to the dog!"

Then, after looking indifferently at the men lying on the ground in front of him, Kingpin waved his hand.

Immediately, two burly men entered through the door.

Ignoring the hoarse pleas for mercy from the man, they expressionlessly picked him up and dragged him toward the "treatment plant" like dead dogs.

And at that moment, as the curtains moved, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the window of the originally empty room.

"Ready?"

There was no surprise at the golden black shadow, but he asked calmly.

"Haha, I'll take action, don't worry, as long as the money is available, you'll be my God."

"This USB drive contains records of all the secret underground experiments of AbbVie Biopharmaceutical Company."

"Haha, I was a bit scared when I saw it, I didn't expect that these people wearing glasses were more ruthless than us, professional killers."

"You know those people wanted to destroy this before they died, so it wasn't easy to get it."

In response to Kingpin's words, Black Shadow simply smiled and then complained.

"The commission will be doubled and it's already on your card."

"But you need to help me with a small thing.."

Kingpin wasn't surprised by his words, he just said calmly.

"Of course!"
