Hansel was trembling hard. His heart was in his throat, and it felt like it would leap out at any moment.

He glanced at Shaun. The sight of Shaun meekly hanging his head infuriated him, yet he had no choice but to step forward to calm Jayden down.

"Mr. Hall, please calm down. Don't stress your body because of this. Let's slowly discuss…"

Before he could finish speaking, Jayden interrupted him with an angry roar.

"Discuss? No way! The entire plan has been ruined! Why would I be in the mood to slowly discuss it? Did a horse kick you in the head or have you turned into an idiot?"

The insults hurled at Hansel rendered him too scared to even speak now.

Upon realizing no one could help him, Shaun forced himself to bear the brunt of his boss' anger and explained himself.

"We had the upper hand at the beginning, boss. We had complete control over Miss Cornell, b-but Mr. Benedict's drug was late. It was the cause of the delay. By the time I had the drug and was about to inject Miss Cornell with it, Joaquin suddenly appeared out of nowhere. I… None of us expected that…"

Bam!

Jayden slammed a fist against the desk as his entire being radiated with so much anger that he looked like he was on the verge of exploding.

"Joaquin Levisay." That name was the most infuriating part of the story for him.

"Didn't I tell the Levisays to stop him? Why was he in Kyoland?"

"I…" Hansel flinched and trembled in fear when Jayden turned to glare at him.

Ever since Jayden's face was scarred, he had turned into a rather unpredictable man who was terrifying whenever he flew into a fit of rage.

Nevertheless, all Hansel could do now was tentatively answer in a quivering voice, "I-It's likely because John couldn't stop him in time…"
