Chapter 633: Chapter 633 Mysterious Person_1
“Who’s there!”
Fabian Percival’s heart turned cold, and his nerves tensed to the extreme.
The Five-lakes Clubhouse was heavily guarded; nearly all of his trusted confidants were stationed there.
There were all kinds of visible and hidden sentries outside, ensuring not even a bird could get in.
But now, someone had broken into the innermost resting room, and had even knocked out Elwood Thorneycroft without anyone noticing.
“Fabian Percival?”
A woman’s voice slowly reached his ears, “Not bad, even with a knife to your throat, you’re calm and collected, somewhat like a real hero.”
No sooner had the voice faded than the knife at Fabian Percival’s throat was gently moved away.
“Don’t turn around! Or else, with one stroke of my sword, your death is certain!”
He was about to turn his head when he felt an intense chill on his back.
“Okay!”
Since the person showed no intention of killing him, Fabian Percival boldly turned his back and asked aloud, “May I inquire…”
“You don’t need to know who I am.”
The woman said indifferently, “Today I came to you because I want you to kill Julius Reed for me. But I won’t let you do it for nothing. There’s five million US dollars in cash at the door, and an expert fighter.”
“After the deed is done, I will give you an additional fifty million as a reward. By the way, this expert fighter is unstoppable when he kills, able to break through thousands of troops.”
“If you need any help, just speak to him. He can contact me, but you must remember one thing!”
“If you leak any information about me, you’re as good as dead.”
After that, the air was silent.
About half a minute later, Fabian Percival tentatively asked, “Are… are you still there?”
But there was no answer.
“Then I’m going to turn around.”
Still no response.
Finally, with a heavy heart, Fabian Percival swiftly turned his head.
Behind him.
There was no one.
“Phew!”
He let out a long sigh of relief and leaned heavily on his Dragon Head cane.
Weak.
Powerless.
It was as if he had taken a walk in front of the gates of hell and come back to life.
“Elwood Thorneycroft!”
He crouched down and began slapping Elwood Thorneycroft’s face hard.
“Father, what happened to…”
Elwood Thorneycroft slowly opened his eyes, feeling a sharp pain in his head.
“Go, go to the door and see if there’s a person and a box. If there is, bring the person over quietly, and make sure no one sees!”
Thinking back to the woman’s words, Fabian Percival broke out in a cold sweat.
“Father, what’s going on?”
Seeing Fabian Percival’s pale face, Elwood Thorneycroft stood up at once and asked with concern, “What’s wrong with you?”
“It’s nothing!”
Fabian Percival shook his head and waved his hand, “Go quickly, don’t ask!”
“Understood!”
Although very puzzled, Elwood Thorneycroft wouldn’t ask further as she was ordered not to.
That was the rule.
It was also why she could become Fabian Percival’s right-hand assistant.
The more you know, the more trouble you get.
On her way, Elwood Thorneycroft tried hard to recall, but she couldn’t remember how she fainted.
She only remembered walking on the road when suddenly she felt dizzy.
After that, the next thing she knew was being woken up by Fabian Percival.
Although she could not know what happened during that time, from Fabian Percival’s expression, something big had definitely occurred.
She had been following her father for years, but this was the first time she’d seen Fabian Percival in such a panic.
“Excuse me, are you…”
When Elwood Thorneycroft arrived at the door, she found a man standing in front of the Five-lakes Clubhouse holding a large box.
By his side, laid haphazardly, were the guards arranged by Fabian Percival.
“Take me to see Fabian Percival.”
The man promptly hoisted the box onto his shoulder and strode into the Five-lakes Clubhouse.
“Stop there!”@@novelbin@@
The bodyguards who received the message immediately rushed forward and, without saying a second word, started attacking the man.
Security at the Five-lakes Clubhouse meant Fabian Percival’s safety.
With elites gathering here, anyone causing trouble was practically seeking death!
“Stop!”
Before Elwood Thorneycroft could shout out, those people were already swinging their iron rods, entangled in a fight with the man.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The man swung the case he carried wildly, knocking over a dozen people to the ground.
After doing all this, he picked up the case again, stepped over the bodies on the ground, and strode into the Five-lakes Clubhouse.
Crack!
Elwood Thorneycroft clearly heard the sound of bones breaking from those who were stepped on.
“This is someone Mr. Thorneycroft invited, you all need to re-arrange the guard.”
After giving her instructions, she turned and walked in front, with the man following her silently, each step firm and deliberate.
After several turns, the two finally arrived at the resting room where Fabian Percival was.
In the meantime, Elwood Thorneycroft had quietly sent a message to gather Fox Miller and Rocco Leocadia around Fabian Percival.
Just in case.
Such a domineering man made her take precautions.
“Father, I have brought the person.”
Elwood Thorneycroft walked into the resting room, nodded to Fabian Percival, then moved to stand behind the man, her eyes never leaving him.
“Sir…”
“Here is your US Dollar,” the man said with a deep voice, then he directly lifted the briefcase and ‘click’ opened it.
Inside was a dazzling five million US Dollars.
“Oh?”
Fabian Percival’s eyes gleamed.
Indeed, this man was the helper sent by that mysterious person.
Even with the stringent security at the Five-lakes Clubhouse, the mysterious woman could still come and go without a trace.
This made Fabian Percival very interested in the man’s abilities.
“I wonder, sir, how strong are you really?”
He sat on a chair, smiling and said, “It’s not that I distrust you, I just want to see for myself how capable you really are!”
“Fine!”
The man nodded and pointed at Fox Miller and Rocco Leocadia: “You, you…”
Seeming to feel that wasn’t enough, he turned to Elwood Thorneycroft: “And you, all three of you, come at once!”
“Kid, you’re a bit too arrogant! Any one of us alone is an unbeatable force. Are you sure you’re not biting off more than you can chew?” Rocco Leocadia said with a look of disdainful amusement.
He was very confident in his own skills.
“Old Fox, what do you think?”
“I think it’s possible. After all, there’s always someone stronger out there,” Fox Miller said as he sized up the robust man, laughing: “I also almost died at the hands of Julius Reed a few days ago, didn’t I? And not a single brother who accompanied me was left.”
“If we’re going to fight, let’s fight, stop whining like a girl!”
The man was evidently getting irritated.
“Fine, I’ll go first!”
Whoosh!
Rocco Leocadia swiftly shed his trench coat, and like a bolt of lightning, charged straight at the man!
His hands turned to claws, and it looked like they were about to latch onto the man’s throat!
Bang!
Just then, the man’s right hand shot out with a forceful blow!
When Rocco Leocadia’s hand was less than three centimeters from the man’s throat, he felt a churning in his chest, and then his body was hurled backward!
Thud!
As Rocco Leocadia’s body heavily hit the ground, Fox Miller and Elwood Thorneycroft made their move simultaneously!
The two of them, one in front and one behind, aimed directly for the vitals on the man’s back!
“Hahaha!”
The man suddenly burst into laughter: “You’re too weak!”
Bang! Bang!
When Fox Miller and Elwood Thorneycroft’s fists hit the man’s body, it was as if they had struck an iron plate!
They couldn’t cause the slightest injury to him!
“Ah!”
With a roar, the man’s body suddenly shook violently, sending the two of them flying backwards!
What do you think?
