The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 429

Even Sonny was driven to desperation by Felix's billion-dollar bounty. He probably never imagined that Felix would spend a hundred billion dollars just to find him.

It was such an astronomical sum. Even the people who had successful careers couldn't earn such an amount in a lifetime. Yet, Felix used that amount without hesitation, not for investment but simply to locate a single person. The saying "money made the world go round" had held true across the ages.

With such a high reward, many people would go crazy trying to claim it. Even if Sonny could disguise himself and hide in remote mountains, bounty hunters might track him down. So, he had to eliminate the threat at its root.

Sonny thought that Felix would not react.
