Chapter 747 I Want to Meet the Person in Charge of This Place
As Sharon listened, his brow furrowed. “So, you never actually saw the people
you were trading with?”
Skylar nodded helplessly. “Yes.”
“Even the account they used for payment was heavily encrypted, making it
untraceable.”
Perhaps Skylar had foreseen a day like this and intended to have a secret ace
up her sleeve. However, she hadn’t anticipated that the other party would be so
well-prepared, leaving her with no room to maneuver.
Joe thought for a moment and said, “I want to meet the person in charge of this
place.”
Hearing this, Skylar frowned. “How is that possible? I’ve been here so many
times, but I’ve never heard of anyone who has seen the boss here.”
“Is that so?” Joe sneered, suddenly grabbing a fire extinguisher and smashing it
into the crystal chandelier.
With a loud crash, crystal beads from the chandelier fell to the ground, creating
a huge commotion that caught people’s attention at the entrance.
A group of b*dyguards seemed to appear out of nowhere, brandishing their
weapons and aiming them at Joe.
Joe, however, remained calm and threw a black suitcase onto the ground,
scattering a considerable amount of dollars. This left everyone in shock.
“Accidentally damaged your property; this is compensation,” he casually stated.
“The extra is for your boss to enjoy a cup of tea. How about that?”
While these b*dyguards had encountered various types of people, none had
seen anyone quite like Joe.
After exchanging bewildered glances, one of them used a walkie-talkie to
communicate for a few moments. Surprisingly, they eventually nodded and
reluctantly agreed to Joe’s request.
Skylar watched in astonishment.
She had never seen anyone so audacious as to demand a meeting with the
boss here. However, upon reflection, she realized that no one else could
casually toss around so much currency to intimidate these b*dyguards.
Soon, the b*dyguards picked up the fallen suitcase and respectfully ushered
Joe upstairs.
Upon reaching the top floor of the building, the b*dyguards brought them to the
only room on the top floor. With a solemn tone, one of them said, “The boss only
allows you to enter; we’ll wait outside.”
The others were taken aback, but Joe nodded without hesitation. “You wait for
me at the door.”
Skylar, who had always lived on the edge of life and death, surprisingly felt a bit
nervous this time. However, in contrast, both Joe and Sharon appeared
composed.
Was she too naive?
Joe pushed the door open and stepped inside.
Compared to the opulence downstairs, the top floor’s decoration was notably
more understated. However, this didn’t imply reduced value. Joe even spotted a
painting, casually hung in an inconspicuous spot, that had been sold for a
staggering 300 million dollars last year.
To his surprise, the boss turned out to be an elegant and charming woman.
She was dressed in a well-tailored cheongsam, holding a small kitten in her
hand. Her gaze swept around the room before settling on Joe. “You’re the one
who broke my crystal chandelier?”
Her tone was faint, making it hard to discern whether she was angry or not.
Joe nodded, “I had to do it out of necessity.”
