Wed to the Billionaire Brother of My Spouse by Doris

Chapter 760 Steven Makes Richard Back Down

Richard walked up to Steven and placed the contract on the table. "This is the cooperation between Mr. Hughes and LY. I don't know how you tricked my people into signing this contract, but if I want to break it, we can take it to court."

"Taking it to court would greatly damage LY's reputation. It was your own people who signed the contract. If you don't fulfill it, it's not just about the exorbitant penalty fee." Steven smiled. "Fifteen million dollars in penalty fees. You, a small-time bodyguard, would never earn that in a lifetime if you hadn't married Betty."

Richard clenched his fingers, knowing Steven was provoking him. "Then I have to thank Mr. Hughes. You left a lot of inheritance to Betty when he died. By marrying her, I got everything that belonged to Mr. Hughes."

Richard's words were now sharp enough to infuriate Steven.

After all, having spent so much time around Betty, he knew how to twist the knife with his words.

"Richard!" Sure enough, Steven was angry. He slammed the table and looked at Richard, sneering. "Are you really planning to hide behind Betty and not take this job? It's just three months of being my personal bodyguard. I'm offering LY ten million dollars."

Steven intended for Richard to earn the money but not live to spend it.

"I investigated Mr. Hughes. The reason you faked your death was because too many people in the Hughes family wanted kill you. Now that you're back, although you've solved the Silverwood problem, the Muskow issue is still unresolved. There are still people who want you dead." The Hughes family was a complex clan.

Previously, to protect Betty, Richard had investigated the Hughes family.

Arnold had also said that Steven was just a junior and not yet formidable enough. The truly terrifying one was the old man who claimed to be the head of the Hughes family, Ronald Hughes.

Steven's lineage had almost died out, all dying young, either from unexplained illnesses or in freak accidents, plane crashes.

In short, the Hughes family business was built by Steven's grandfather, Kevin Hughes, but it gradually fell into Ronald as the descendants dwindled.

Ronald's branch, however, was thriving.

So, it was dangerous for Steven to come back suddenly

Ronald would definitely make a move against Steven.

Richard only needed to stay by Steven's side. There was no need for Steven to plot actively; just by Ronald, Richard must be killed.

"So what?" Steven asked with a smile. "Are you scared?"

Ryder glanced nervously at Richard. "Richard, you can't take this job. It's a death sentence. I heard that during Steven's fake death, he had over a dozen mercenaries protecting him."

None of them survived.

Richard and Steven looked at each other.

Both of them were engaged in a contest, waiting to see who would concede first.
