Expert Down The Mountain by Summer
Chapter 11
The bespectacled man was Eos, Marino’s godson. He had done plenty of things for Marino before.
At this very moment, Eos was scared out of his wits.
“Why were you guys targeting Korah?” Cyrus squatted down and stared at Eos quizzically.
“M-Mr. Hunt received orders from the CEO of Haco Corporation. He wants Mr. Hunt to capture Korah so that he can threaten Wade Gardner into giving up on bidding for the International Prosperous Project…”
“Is this project really important to Gardner Corporation?” Cyrus asked.
“Very… Gardner Corporation transferred most of its funds to fund this project, and they also rejected many other projects…”
After a moment of thought, Cyrus asked, “What will happen to Gardner Corporation if they don’t take on this project?”
Eos gulped. “Haco Corporation wants to absorb Gardner Corporation. If Gardner Corporation doesn’t manage to take the project, Wade Gardner won’t be able to use those funds, and they’ll just end up as idle funds.”
Cyrus pondered this. Then, he pointed to Marino and the other four people’s corpses. “You did this. It has nothing to do with me, understand?”
Eos was stunned. ‘Does this mean… that he won’t kill me?’
Cyrus frowned, and Eos trembled. He quickly said, “I killed Marino and his subordinates to take power! You were never here!”
At that, Cyrus nodded in satisfaction. “I just don’t want Mr. Gardner to clean up my mess. I suppose you understand what I mean?”
“Yes! Of course!” Eos nodded.
How would he dare to harbor any other thoughts after he just managed to escape death?
Once Cyrus left, Eos changed into Kevin’s pants before he took his phone out and called a number.
