Chapter 44 The One With Balls

“To hell with that!” Polly glared at Jonathan fiercely and said, “Just wait till I deal with you if you keep this lackadaisical attitude up!”

Jonathan chuckled, but he then stopped teasing Polly. He knew when he should stop.

After that, Polly said, “You can start speaking now.”

Jonathan didn’t beat around the bush with his narrative. “Kiki grew up in the forests of Smealand since he was a child. His grandfather was a man of prestige, but for some reason, he was severely injured. That was why his health hasn’t been in the best condition all this while. I’ve coincidentally gotten to know his grandfather, so I would visit Kiki and his grandfather whenever I have time. Later, his grandfather’s body gave in, and before he died, he asked me to take good care of Kiki. Ever since then, Kiki has been treating me like his own elder brother.”

He then added, “Other than that, there’s an alpha silver wolf that keeps Kiki company. Kiki doesn’t like to interact with human beings ever since he was younger. He’s used to the life of killing and survival in the forest. That’s why Kiki is completely different from normal people. Other than his grandfather, the alpha silver wolf, and me, Kiki will never smile at anyone else, nor will he respond to anyone else. To be honest, though, I’m not quite sure how skilled Kiki actually is. All this little fellow knows is to kill and escape. If he were to fight against me in an arena, I’d have more confidence to win. However, if he were to assassinate me, I’m certain that I won’t get a chance to survive.”

Polly drew in a sharp breath. Then, she said, “I have this feeling too. If he wants to kill me, I won’t even have the chance to run away. Then why did you want him to come back this time? To kill Leonardo?”

Jonathan shook his head as he replied, “Ms. McDaniels, they say women with big breasts are lacking in the brain department, but you seem pretty flat.”

Polly cursed at Jonathan, “Are you itching for a beating?”

Jonathan simply chuckled. “Why would I want to kill Leonardo? Firstly, he’s in his own base camp, so it’s difficult to get him killed. Secondly, even if I kill him, it won’t clear me of my name either.”

“Then…” Polly still couldn’t get it.

“It’s a secret. You’ll know in a few days’ time.” Jonathan didn’t want to reveal his intentions yet.

Since he wasn’t willing to tell her, she couldn’t force the answer out of him either.

The day passed in peace.

At three in the morning, the surface of the southern waters of Wyvern River was dark and calm. The moon was hanging in the sky, casting its bright glow upon the waters.

There were many legends that surrounded the Wyvern River. Those legends added a sense of mysteriousness to it.

Meanwhile, the lights were all turned on in a cargo ship on the river.

This cargo ship belonged to Young Corporation, and it was especially used to transport diesel fuel and petrol.

However, in the lower levels of the cargo ship, there were activities of smuggling going on.

Those levels were filled with sedan cars obtained from the black market.

The sedan-smuggling was an extremely profitable line of business. Once the vehicles were refurbished and given new car plates, they could be sold off for a shockingly high profit.

Nonetheless, this line of business was merely a small part of Young Corporation’s enterprise. The company monopolized the rights of transportation in the southern parts of Wyvern River, so all the cargos that went through there would have to rely on them. In addition to that, those cargo owners would have to pay for a protection racket that was relatively high.

If they didn’t pay the demanded amount, their cargo wouldn’t be guaranteed to arrive safely because there was still quite a lot of piracy on the waters of Wyvern River. Furthermore, Young Corporation would take action against anyone who was unwilling to comply.

Once the deal was done, though, the pirates wouldn’t dare to cross Young Corporation.

That way, those cargo ships would be able to pass through safely, as long as they had made the payment.

At that moment, a speedboat appeared on the dark waters and zoomed toward the cargo ship.

The speedboat instantly attracted the attention of the sailors on the cargo ship.

Soon enough, the speedboat arrived before the cargo ship with a hull of ten meters.

Instead of stopping, the speedboat ran straight into the cargo ship’s hull, producing a loud crash and a bright explosion.
