Chapter 32
After entering the room, Joseph put the safe he had been carrying on the table.
Joseph looked coldly ahead and made such a strong presence that intimidated others when he entered the room
“Mr. Duncan, this is the chip Hacker Alliance has just developed. We can sell it to you at the original price and give your
company exclusive use for a year. But you must promise to give us 30 percent of the development project shares.”
Apart from looking at Joseph once when he came into the room, Branden did not look at him again
After hearing Joseph’s condition, Branden turned to look at him slowly.
On his handsome face, his deep eyes looked cold and bottomless.
Just a look from him was enough to make Joseph’s heart skip a beat, even though he was usually bold
Branden was too horrible. He was even scarier than Joseph’s Boss
Branden’s fingers moved slightly on his knee, and Paxton knew what he meant immediately.
Paxton looked up at joseph with the same cold and expressionless face.
“My boss said that you can have 40 percent!
Seeing that Branden had his mind set and that there seemed to be no room for negotiation, Joseph was at a loss.
He raised a hand and remained silent.
Branden could tell from a glance that Joseph was only a representative of whoever it was that could make the decision. A faint
smile appeared on Branden’s charming face.
He reached for and picked up the pack of cigarettes on the table. He flipped the cover open with a hand and took one cigarette
out of the pack with his lips.
His actions were smooth and sexy. Sitting opposite Branden and silently sizing him up, Joseph couldn’t help but scream in his
mind that he couldn’t take it anymore.
Paxton bent forward, flicked the lighter on, and respectfully put it next to Branden.
The blazing red flame looked particularly eye-catching in the dim room.
After lighting the cigarette, Branden stood up and walked towards the door.
Joseph heard a bone-chilling voice from behind his back before he could turn to see what was going on.
“I want an answer in three minutes!”
After leaving the room, Branden leaned casually on the wall while Paxton reported the information he had just gotten to him in a
small voice.
“Mr. Duncan, the signal was sent from within the room. From our latest surveillance, the source of the signal is on the roof. We
need at least five minutes to travel from here to the roof without taking the elevator.”
Nobody knew that Duncan Corporation owned Charm Bar, the money-squandering establishment that everyone wanted to get
into at Casier.
When Joseph came to Charm Bar last time, the surveillance here had been hacked into once.
Even though the hacker left no trace behind, the men of the Duncans still found out about it.
This time, it was hard to say if the other party would hack into the system again. In order to catch them once and for all, they had
to take the stairs. Only then could they avoid the surveillance in the elevator so that they wouldn’t alarm their target.
Five minutes?
Branden shook his head lightly. He took the cigarette from between his lips, put it out in the ashtray nearby, and turned to leave.
Paxton wanted to follow Branden but remained rooted as he thought of Joseph, who was still in the room.
He signaled to the men in the dark for them to follow and protect Branden.
Meanwhile, Catherine was sitting on the roof in a black trench coat. There was a laptop in front of her.
Her slender fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard of the laptop.
She had received the information Joseph had sent her and was analyzing the profit they could gain by raising the project’s price
to five times the current price.
Ronin’s voice rang in her ear. “Boss, the guy from the Duncans has disappeared. I’m afraid he might have tracked the location
on the roof and is on his way upstairs. He would need at least. five minutes to arrive at the roof from downstairs. Our profit
calculations also need five. minutes. Boss, would we make it?”
The pair of beautiful and round eyes shone with confidence on the exquisite face of Catherine. Her bold temperament was
enough to leave one amazed and convinced.
“Yes!”
Even for someone well-trained, running up from the private room to the roof at full speed would take at least five minutes.
However, Branden only used no more than three minutes to come upstairs. He used almost half the time needed for one that
had received professional training. His speed was genuinely horrifying.
After coming to the roof, Branden noticed a slim figure in black sitting in the corner with their back to him immediately.
He strolled towards the figure, and a rare and faint smile appeared on his handsome face. He thought to himself, “Boss of
Hacker Alliance, I will get you today.”
