“All right then.” After much weighing and consideration, Grimo finally agreed.

can’t just abandon her once I've gotten what | wanted.

Grimo wasn't stingy at all. After descending the stairs, he entrusted his most trusted subordinate to Madelyn.

The man leading the group was Grimo’s most trusted subordinate, Adelar.

Adelar was a remarkably robust man, one could even describe him as a burly figure. At first glance, it was clear

that he possessed significant strength.

Despite his robust build, Adelar appeared surprisingly deft and said calmly, “Ms. Thornton, I'll obey your every

command this time.”

Madelyn nodded approvingly, turning to face Grimo with a stunning smile. Thanks, Grimo.”

After saying that, she set off with the team.

Grimo stood rooted to the spot, watching the leaving vehicle, his eyes slightly narrowed as he got lost in

thought.

Then, a subordinate standing by the side asked with a hint of worry, “Boss, do you really think this woman can

be trusted? Could she be trying to use you? We're handing the team over to her, just like that? If something goes

wrong... the consequences-

“She won't,” Grimo interjected lightly, a hint of a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.

Then, he chuckled nonchalantly. “This woman is smart and confident. She wouldn't dare to take any risks without

slevel of certainty. Besides, even if she were to mess up, Adelar would definitely intervene in time. Let's just

sit back and enjoy the show.”

“Indeed.”

At the stime, Sebastian and the others had already arrived at the agreed-upon location, which was an

abandoned, empty building.

Under normal circumstances, the place would've been not a soul was in sight, and an eerie silence hung in the

air.

Wesley also noticed the strange atmosphere and immediately said, “Sebastian, maybe w quits? This might be a

trap they set for us,”

“Sebastian...” Harriet was also somewhat hesitant.

The frown on Sebastian's face deepened.

Wesley and Harriet exchanged a glance and followed resignedly.

Upon entering, they discovered that someone had cleaned the place. Moreover, a long, oval table and chairs.

had been neatly arranged in advance.

Sebastian relaxed his furrowed brow. It seems they're ready to sit down and talk

Suddenly, a robust and authoritative voice resonated, “I've heard so much about you, Mr. Lockhart. It's a

pleasure to finally meet you today! Please, have a seat.”

A group of foreigners in business suits appeared.

They first took their seats on one side of the table, then gestured toward the opposite side, indicating for

Sebastian and the others to sit there.

Sebastian calmly took a seat.

Following that, both parties started to negotiate.

The individual leading the group was Darryon. His features were very distinct, and his overall build was

impressively robust. His appearance somewhat resembled that of a hippo.

At that moment, Darryon leaned back, crossed his legs, and asked, “What are your thoughts on the diamond

mine?”

In reality, the negotiation topic revolved around a diamond mine in South Alendor.

Originally, the Lockhart Group's subsidiary planned to collaborate with their company on a joint venture.

However, they suddenly backed out at a crucial moment, stating they wanted to excavate it independently

because their team, situated near the diamond mine, had stumbled upon a gold mine and an emerald mine.

The profits from a diamond mine were already abundant, to begin with, but with the additional resources, the

potential earnings from mining were simply staggering.

Given such enormous benefits, Darryon naturally didn’t want to collaborate with the Lockhart Group anymore.

Instead, they desired to monopolize everything.

For that reason, they intentionally hired international hackers to attack the systems of Lockhart Group's overseas

branches, pilfering their crucial data. Also, they were subjected to various forms of hostility and attack in the

market, causing Lockhart Group's stock to plummet.

The multitude of reasons had led to both sides having a negotiation.

“What do you mean by that?” Wesley was irked.

Darryon spread his hands and said nonchalantly. “We are clear about our intentions, Our company will take full

control of the excavation of these three mines. If Mr. Lockhart is interested in a piece of the pie, we can consider

a division of profits in an eighty-to-twenty ratio. We'll take eighty percent while you get twenty percent. What do

you think?”

“No way!” Harriet immediately expressed her disagreement on the spot.

Harriet had always been business savvy, so naturally, she stood her ground and argued logically.

“So what? I've never said this is a fair trade,” Darryon said, a cunning smile playing on his lips.

Then, he turned to Sebastian, “Mr. Lockhart, my company is already generous enough by offering an eighty-to-

twenty split. If you know what's best for you, I'd advise you to graciously back down”

disagree?”

The expression on Darryon’s face noticeably stiffened.

Sebastian exuded an aura as steady as a rock as if no one could shake him.

“Disagree?” Darryon was so overwhelmed by his aura that he struggled to find his dignity.

In the end, he had no choice but to laugh in a fit of reckless abandon. “Haha, wonderful! Don’t even think of

stepping out of here alive!”

No sooner had the words been spoken than the door behind Darryon abruptly swung open. A group of ment

their muzzles at Sebastian and his two companions.

Everyone's clothing was marked with the word “Hellfire”.

“Hellfire Creed!” Suddenly, Wesley exclaimed.

Sebastian's gaze darkened. The members of the Hellfire Creed are notorious for their ruthless killings. It seems

Darryon intends to get rid of us.

However, Sebastian was still composed as he casually clapped nonchalantly.

Suddenly, figures clad in black emerged from the shadows, swiftly entering in a single file. In less than two

seconds, they had stood behind Sebastian in a neat three-roll formation

In an instant, both sides were evenly matched, their forces equally formidable.

“Fine then, it seems you're not interested in negotiating and have a death wish!” Darryon was furious, his

expression turning vicious.

Sebastian gave him a cold, dismissive glance, his demeanor radiating immense arroganc “Your despicable

company isn’t worthy of negotiating with us.”

“What?” Darryon was thoroughly enraged.
