Chapter 650

Julian jolted in fear as the icy cold muzzle pressed against his forehead. He had never foreseen death knocking on his door so soon.

As a merchant with a net worth of hundreds of millions and a prominent status, Julian had countless people trying to curry favor with him. Even some influential leaders had to show him respect. He never expected a lowly villager to press a pistol against his head.

It was like a dream, but there was no mistaking how real the muzzle felt against his head. He didn't even have time to think things through before he began haggling for a chance at life.

"D-don't shoot. You can't kill me. We haven't got any bad blood between us. You can't just kill me!"

A cold glint flashed in Matthew's eyes. "So you can kill me, but I can't do likewise? Does that even make sense to you?"

Seeing that the killing intent was still strong with Matthew, Julian said, "You're here to solve a problem. Killing me won't solve the problem. Didn't Kingston mention that there is a pollution problem? We should solve the issue of pollution first. State your condition! I'll agree to anything!"

Matthew responded frostily, "Killing you off will solve the problem. I don't believe anyone will dare set up a factory here again."

Julian felt his heart being plunged into icy depths. He was so scared that he screamed, "Don't kill me! There's no point killing me! I only hold 5% of the factory's shares! The real owner of the factory isn't me! There's someone else behind it!"
