Chapter 834 What Can You Do
However, his eyes gleamed with fear when he looked at Ernest standing in front of him.
He had done something against Ernest and got caught in the act by Ernest. It had already been a
difficult situation for him. If he still acted recklessly and dared to sell the hotel to Kieran, he would
not have lived to spend the money.
Kieran saw the middle-aged man hesitated, and he said.
“With enough money, you could enjoy a luxurious life and develop a career no matter where you
are. The world is big, and there are many ces other than City N.”
He looked provocatively at Ernest and promised the middle-aged man, “Don''t worry, as long as you
sell the hotel to me, I guarantee you to develop your careerfortably in other cities.”
It was a gold-digging deal.
The middle-aged man was getting attracted, and his eyes gleamed again.
Ernest raised the corners of his lips that seemed to be sarcastic to the extreme.
He took Florence''s hand, yed with it in his hands, and said casually.
“I don''t care what happens outside of City N, as long as you...”
He smiled and looked at the middle-aged man, “Can walk out of City N with life.”
The words were simple, and he seemed to say with a smile.
However, the words were like a knife that was put to the man''s throat and cut off his head in the
next moment.
The middle-aged man trembled, and his face suddenly turned pale.
His legs felt weak, and he fell to his knees on the ground.
He was begging for mercy fearfully, “I''m sorry, Mr. Hawkins. I''ve my head turned by greed that dared
to have thought against you. I was wrong, and I don''t dare to do it again. Not to mention ten times
the price, I''ll not sell the hotel to him even if he pays me a hundred times the price. I will always be
on your side. You''re the big person, and please spare me this time.”
The middle-aged man was scared thoroughly, and his body was trembling like a shaking sieve.
Kieran flew into a rage when he saw the scene.
He felt chagrined that he experienced the sense of suffocation even if he had money. In City N,
Ernest''s power and deterrence were much more powerful than the lure of money.
The businessmen were afraid of him thoroughly.
Kieran gritted his teeth and looked at Ernest icily, said.
“He''s afraid of you, but it doesn''t seem that everyone here is afraid of you. Ernest, do you able to
intimidate all the hotel owners in the city? I want to see if I can buy a hotel here as our first
encounter!”
Kieran was unable to stomach such an insult like that and wanted to return it to Ernest.
Ernest smiled frostily like ice and gestured. Timothy immediately walked out from the side.
He held a newly made contract in his hand.
He handed it over to the middle-aged man, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and he
said with a tough stand.
“Sign this.”
What was it?
The middle-aged man took the document from Timothy with doubt, and after reading the content, he
felt bad instantly.
The fingers holding the contract trembled and looked at Ernest with panic and anxiety.
“Mr. H-Hawkins, you must be kidding. I really know I''m wrong, and I definitely don''t dare to sell the
hotel to Kieran again. You''re magnanimous and spare me this time.”
Ernest sarcastically raised the corners of his lips, “I''m always not a magnanimous person.”
He took Florence''s hand, looked at her watch to tell the time, and said with impatience.
“He dyed a minute. Drop another ten percent of the price.”
After hearing that, Timothy immediately snatched the contract from the man and amended the fifty
percent of the price to buy the hotel to forty percent.
The middle-aged man looked at the contract with fear, and it was killing him.
The hotel was all of his property. He would definitely leave with the short end of the stick if he sold
the hotel at half of the price.
Forty percent...
He did not even dare to think about it.
After amending the price, Timothy threw the contract to the middle-aged man and reminded him.
“You should know the means of Mr. Hawkins. You dared to disobey his order. Mr. Hawkins is
merciful to give you money and allow you to get out of here after this. If you don''t appreciate it, you''ll
lose the money of the forty percent as well.”
It was possible for Ernest would destroy the hotel, make him bankrupt, and lost everything he
owned.
Countless people had got to such tragic downfalls.
In recent years, Ernest had developed his career steadily and became less ruthless. However, the
evil things he had done were memories deep within people.
The middle-aged man knew the power of Ernest. If he did not appreciate the opportunity, he would
lose his life instead of only losing forty percent of the money.
“I''ll sign. I''ll sign it.”
The man said it while biting his lip.
He signed his name on the contract with his hands trembled.
Timothy picked up the contract again and checked it before closing it with satisfaction. Then, he
looked at the middle-aged man icily and said in a loud voice.
“You all see it. It''s the downfall of disobeying the orders of Mr. Hawkins.”
The middle-aged man lost everything he owned in a sh.
The money the man got might not even be enough to cover the amount owed by the man. He
became a pauper from a boss.
A boss bankrupted and became poor in just a few minutes.
It was what happened to people of messing with Mr. Hawkins.

The other hotel staff, who were watching in the lobby, were all frightened, and everyone felt
insecure.
The incident that happened in the hotel would be spread throughout City N with the fastest speed.
The other businessmen who were still holding a fluke mind would no longer dare to disobey the
orders of Ernest.
The middle-aged man had a nasty downfall, but the person that Ernest actually threatened was
Kieran.
Kieran showed a gloomy face with anger as if his face was coated with ayer of bottom ash.
The way Ernest was doing it was humiliating him and was also a p in the face.
Kieran threatened to struggle with Ernest until the end, but the ending had predestined before the
struggle started.
Ernest deliberately did it as a warning to everyone in City N. Even if Kieran could pay the
astronomical price, nobody in City N would dare sell the hotel to him.
He had already lost at the starting line.
Kieran''s anger was almost about to explode, and he red fiercely at Ernest and clenched his
teeth.
“Ernest, don''t think that you have a lot of power in City N, and you can be ruthless and arrogant. Let
me tell you. There''s always someone who has much more power than you! In the country, there are
always powers that can destroy City N!”
“Oh?” Ernest raised his eyebrows and said with a tone of contemptuous and disdain, “That has
nothing to do with you either.”
“You!”
Kieran was furious and pointed at Ernest with his finger trembled vigorously.
He almost lost his sense because of his anger.
If it was not for Kieran to go to City N and had no power he could assign there, how could Ernest
easily clip his wings?
Damn it!
“You stand still and refuse to make progress. You''ll only be confined to City N, the small ce!”
“City N is a wonderful ce with nice hills and waters. It''s good to stay here.”
Ernest smirked, “But for you, don''t stay here shamelessly. You''re such an eyesore, and now get out
of my sight immediately.”
Kieran''s face turned red, and he felt ufortable and suffocated to death as if wet cotton stuffed
in the throat.
He yelled in anger.
“You want me to leave, and I won''t leave! Ernest, even if you''re very powerful, you can''t control my
freedom. What can you do if I want to stay in City N?”
