Chapter 26 This Is Only The Beginning
“Going against me would be like challenging a god. I’m far more capable and powerful than you. Don’t you know that being poor is a sin? I can do anything I want because I’m rich,” Harrison boasted.
“Is that so? I’ll show you what I’m capable of today.” Donald raised his hands, and a surge of energy shot from his palm. Then, the door immediately slammed shut as he sat down in front of Jennifer.
Harrison was dumbfounded at the sight of that.
“Perhaps you’ve forgotten that I drove Kevin out of Blade Alliance. It also seems that you haven’t realized the person who saved Kevin was a ‘Mr. Quirk,’ not you, Mr. Queen. Now, I’ll destroy Pollerton Pharma in front of you before I end your life,” said Donald.
Harrison burst out in laughter at the sound of that. “This is the funniest joke I’ve heard this whole year.”
Unbothered, Donald went ahead and pulled out his phone. “Get rid of Pollerton Pharma within the next five minutes.”
Harrison was not intimidated at all. He pulled a chair over and sat down as he looked at Donald with disdain. “Get rid of Pollerton Pharma in five minutes? Pfft. Let’s see what gives you the right to say that.”
It did not take long before Harrison’s phone began to ring.
He frowned as the call was from his father, who yelled furiously, “Harrison, who did you offend?”
Harrison had a bad feeling as soon as he heard that. He could not help but glance over at Donald, but the latter was caressing Jennifer’s face gently without paying attention to him. Thus, he answered the phone with a shaky voice, “W-What happened, Dad?”
“Our under-the-table business with Pollerton General Hospital has gotten exposed. The big shots who reorganized Pollerton General Hospital is now targeting us. Who exactly did you offend, and how?” asked Garrett in a trembling voice. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Harrison felt as though his mind had exploded as all sorts of thoughts crossed his mind at that moment.
The guys who reorganized Pollerton General Hospital are attacking us? Aren’t those the big shots from Heavenly Private Room? Could it be because of Donald? Impossible. Preposterous! There’s no way he would have this kind of influence.
“I’ll call Mr. Green immediately!” Those were Garrett’s words before he hung up the call.
At that moment, Harrison could not help but tremble as he looked over at Donald. After all, it would be a death penalty if the under-the-table businesses between Pollerton Pharma and Pollerton General Hospital got exposed, especially the one involving fake vaccines. It turned out that Pollerton Pharma had been sending fake vaccines worth a few hundred million to Pollerton General Hospital all these years.
“Be patient. The best is yet to come,” Donald commented nonchalantly.
Before Harrison could even respond to that, his phone rang again. This time, it was his grandfather, Louis.
“Harrison, what did you do? Who did you offend? Our entire research department has gotten suspended! Our shares are dropping as well!” Louis thundered.
Harrison was stunned by that.
Everything happened so suddenly and turned Pollerton Pharma upside down, like how the reorganization changed Pollerton General Hospital entirely.
“Hurry up and apologize to that person. We might still be able to come out of this alive. Otherwise, we’re doomed,” Louis urged before hanging up the phone.
Goosebumps prickled down Harrison’s spine.
His eyes met Donald and something clicked into place inside his mind.
Back at Wynter’s concert, someone arranged a private room for Jennifer on the spot.
Now that Harrison thought about it, the situation made it likely that Donald had arranged that.
Kevin also mentioned that I gave a firm reminder to Jerald. I clearly didn’t do that. Donald said the man who saved Kevin is Mr. Quirk, but there aren’t many “Quirks” in Pollerton that can do that. The only person I can think of is Tyson Quirk, who holds the titles “Single Blade War God” and “Tiger.” But he’s the vicious leader of Mount Sea Sect! Why would Tyson be bothered with helping a useless piece of trash like Kevin? Someone must’ve asked him to do so. Yet, the only people that can do that are likely the big shots in Heavenly Private Room…
“It’s you! You’re the big shot from Heavenly Private Room!” Harrison stood up upon that realization. His forehead broke out in cold sweat. At the same time, his phone chimed with endless messages.
Our stock prices have plummeted! We’ve lost 300 million in two minutes.
The Bitcoins we stored in a foreign country have turned into unreadable codes. They’re unsalvageable. That means our five hundred million is gone!
The one billion we saved in a foreign country has also gotten frozen by the International Financial Regulatory Institution!
One after another, bad news kept coming.
Harrison finally realized what Donald was truly capable of at that moment. He found the latter’s powers terrifying and unfathomable.
Donald usually seems harmless. However, he’s like an utter brute when attacking. Is this what Donald is capable of? Harrison wondered.
His face became as pale as a sheet while his lips were trembling as he looked at Donald with horror. “Impossible! Who exactly are you?”
Donald coldly met the former’s gaze. “Why are you getting so emotional? All of this is only the beginning.”
