Chapter 761 Reward
After Gavin entered the room, he looked up and noticed Susan was not the only person sitting on
the couch. There was also an unknown man inside the room.
“We''re back, Susan,” Gavin said.
Susan was sipping wine at that moment. When she saw him rubbing his hands, wanting to take the
initiative to pour her a drink, she smiled, raised her foot, and pressed her high-heeled shoe against
his chest.
Gavin could not help but gulp at the sight of her long, fair leg.
Susan was a beauty, to begin with. It was rumored that she was Aldrich''s secret lover.
Truth be told, Gavin fantasized about her at times in the dead of night. However, he only dared to
think about it and would never actually do anything to her.
“You''ve done well this time. What reward do you want?”
Susan''s voice was mellow and seductive when she uttered those words.
Gavin felt his throat bing dry. With his eyes riveted on her, he stammered, “I-I''ll let you decide,
Susan.”

“You''re really letting me decide?” Susan asked.
The look in her gaze turned more enticing, causing him to feel like he was losing himself in her
eyes.
“Yes. It''s your call,” Gavin answered.
Susan retracted her leg, and at that moment, Henrick suddenly pulled out the dagger from his waist
and stabbed Gavin in the back.
“Ah!” Gavin screamed.
Never in his wildest dreams could he have anticipated Hendrick attacking him abruptly. He
attempted to struggle, but thetter was a special forces veteran and thus was much more capable
than Gavin in terms ofbat prowess.
Subdued by Henrick, Gavin did not even have the chance to resist.
“Hendrick, what the h*ll are you doing?” Gavin shrieked.
“This is the reward Susan has prepared for you,” Henrick replied.
He applied force to the dagger as he spoke, ripping a gash in Gavin''s flesh and even revealing the
white bones beneath.
“Susan, what did I do wrong? I have been loyal to you, and my allegiance has never swayed!”
Gavin yelled.
Susan lit a cigarette and gazed at him indifferently. “Everyone in the Gomez family''s convoy
should''ve been equipped with rifles, right? How could the few of you possibly severely injure
Thaddeus with some nearly scrapped handguns? Also, the Gomez family''s Durbaine Port should be
heavily guarded by dozens of guards and overseen by a Septet Ste Warrior. So, tell me, Gavin.
How did you make them set their own armory on fire?”
“It wasn''t me. I don''t know how it was done,” Gavin said anxiously. “Donald, hurry up and exin
the situation to Susan. Tell her what happened.”
Susan shifted her attention to Donald, signaling for him to speak.
Donald uttered nonchntly, “We held Thaddeus hostage, then used him to threaten Lancelot,
instructing them to burn their firearms inside the warehouse. They were afraid we would kill
Thaddeus, so theyplied.”
When he was done talking, a hush descended over the room.
Susan pped her hands and gave Donald a thumbs-up. “Brat, do you think this is my first day in
the underworld? Thaddeus may indeed be the Gomez family''s eldest grandson, but the goods at
Durbaine Port were worth tens of billions. Do you think Thaddeus'' life is worth that much?”
Donald stared at her and said, “It''s up to you to believe it or not. That''s how we did it anyway.”
She sneered. “It''s not that I don''t want to believe you, but I just can''t bring myself to do so. Donald,
back then, I admired yourbat prowess, which was why I kept you around to work for me.
However, are you aware thatbat prowess is secondary in our line of work? Loyalty always
takes precedence. I''ve checked your background. You''re indeed Evelyn''s manager, but you''re more
than just a manager at Dragon Fide Corporation, aren''t you? How could you, the vice president of
Dragon Fide Corporation, be short of money?”
