Chapter 3445 All Negotiable

Matthew's gaze hardened as he looked at the rest, who remained crouched without a word. His tone turned icy. "Since no one else has objections, stay down and keep quiet. As for this gentleman who refuses to work, send him to hell, where he'll find his old boss. Oh, and make sure he gets a personal greeting with the sharks."

A cold glint flickered in Matthew's eyes, sending a shiver down the spines of everyone present. Relief and shock flashed across their faces-they hadn't expected the warm, mild-mannered Matthew to shift so drastically.

Two burly men stepped forward and grabbed hold of the defiant man.

"Wait! Didn't you say everything was negotiable? You're going back on your word!" the man shouted, his voice cracking in desperation as he glared at Matthew.

"Oh, it's negotiable, alright," Matthew replied calmly. "Just how you'd prefer to die that's open for discussion. You two," he said, addressing the men holding him. "Let him decide, but if he takes too long, feel free to help him along." "Yes, Deputy Larden," the two men replied, dragging the pale, trembling man away. Their whispered conversation drifted back faintly.
