Invincible Heir
Chapter 42 Undeniable evidence
The scene stung at Waldo’s chest.
Samba was a man he’d spent a massive fortune hiring. As the boxing king of Heukwok, he was one of the top boxers across the entire world.
And now he was kneeling at Baron’s feet, asking to become his follower.
Suddenly amused, Baron shot a dull-eyed Waldo a look, then turned his gaze back on Samba. “Do you think I need you by my side?”
Samba’s expression was solemn. “I’m willing to do anything for you – including kill.”
“You think I need your help to kill people?” Baron smiled mildly.
Samba’s dark face remained set as stone. “I can also protect your loved ones.”
Baron had no intentions of taking Samba in at the start, but that hit home as a reminder.
Be it Yuri’s ordeal at the hands of Wallace before, or what Tracy had gone through today – would any of this have happened if he’d left someone close to them for protection?
After some consideration, Baron spoke up. “Leave your contact details. When I need you, I’ll get in touch.”
Samba was overjoyed. “Thanks for taking me in, Boss!”
“I don’t like being called Boss. Mr. Owen is fine.”
“Yes, Mr. Owen!” Samba replied.
Although he was from Heukwok, his command of the local language was impressively orthodox. If his background check cleared, having him on wasn’t a problem.
By now, Waldo was thoroughly numb, as if he was in a dream. The man he’d paid top coin hadn’t just failed to take down his opponent, but he had actually gone over to the enemy’s side.
“Samba, you promised to deal with Baron for me, but you’re actually going to work for him instead? Where’s your professional conduct?” Waldo flew into a rage.
Samba shook his head indifferently. “I didn’t take your money. I also don’t owe you anything. Why would I take your orders?”
“Fine! That’s perfectly fine! If you’re going to follow this garbage, then you’re an enemy of the Scott Clan from today forward! Just wait – our family’s going to fall on you like a tonne of bricks!” Waldo’s features twisted.
“Know what I hate the most?”
Baron’s eyes narrowed, and he finished before Waldo could reply. “Threats.”
“Well, too bad, that’s exactly what I’m making! Kill me if you can – if you haven’t the guts for the job, shut your mouth and wait for the Scott Clan to give what’s coming to you!’ Waldo burst out into hysterical laughter.
Baron looked at him as if he was already a corpse. “Is the Scott Clan that big a deal?”
“Our family is one of the elite families of Cona, with power just beneath the four families themselves. Your vaunted Perry family is dirt compared to the Scott Clan. We can blow you apart and leave you to scatter like ash in the wind. What does an abandoned garbage son-in-law like you know about our power?”
