“There’s no way I’ll let them go free now.” A wicked smirk played upon Hae-jin’s lips.
Bang!
The doors to the gym were kicked wide open, banging loudly as the two halves slammed into the wall.
“Where is Park Hae-jin?” A deep voice boomed out.
Everyone in the gym whipped their heads around in the direction of the noise, only to see Levi and Seth striding inside.
“Sir, isn’t that Levi Garrison?” Chang-wook pointed out.
Upon realizing that it was indeed Levi, Hae-jin smiled cruelly. “Shut the doors! Don’t let them escape!”
His men did as they were ordered before moving so that they had Levi and Seth completely trapped.
“You have some serious guts to deliver yourselves to my doorstep! Even better, now, I don’t have to go looking for you!” he thundered.
Levi lit a cigarette calmly as if he were not currently surrounded by more than a dozen enemies.
“Listen up, punk! The only way for me to let you off the hook is if you hand over your wife to me for some fun. Hahaha!” Hae-jin guffawed loudly, his men joining in soon after.
Through it all, Levi remained silent, as he merely stared at the chortling men.
The menacing look in his eyes caused fear to course through Hae-jin.
“W-what are you doing here?” Hae-jin found himself asking.
Levi’s voice was placid but there was an undercurrent of steel to it. ”You’d rammed into my wife’s car and ruined it, so now, you have to pay up!”
Once again, Hae-jin and his men roared with laughter.
The expressions on their faces clearly showed that they had thought that Levi was a fool.
To dare ask Park Hae-jin for compensation, he really must be an idiot!
“You want me to pay up?” Hae-jin asked for confirmation.
“That’s right! Her car costs at least two million, you know. Now, pay up!”
“Let me tell you a cold, hard fact: I have never reimbursed anyone for anything before! I never have and never will. You’ve said that you want my money? Only in your dreams!”
Taking a puff of his cigarette, Levi stated indifferently, “What if I insist on receiving compensation from you?”
Raucous laughter greeted his words.
Hae-jin had even thrown his head back, his stomach aching with the force of his chortling.
Being so bold while the police captain was around one matter.
It was another matter entirely to demand compensation from him while on his turf.
This guy must have a death wish!
“Hahaha… Oh, my aching sides…Urgh!”
Hae-jin’s mocking laughter was abruptly cut off when Levi suddenly stabbed his still burning cigarette into the other man’s open mouth.
“Argh!” Hae-jin screamed in agony.
His men were dumbfounded at what had just happened.
Levi had moved so fast that even Hae-jin had been unable to react in time.
A deathly silence descended upon them.
Nobody had expected Levi to attack so suddenly.
Even Seth was amazed at the speed of his movement.
“Is it really that funny?” Levi asked with a frown.
Face scrunched up and red with pain, Hae-jin roared, “Beat them up! I don’t want to see them standing after this or else!”
Acknowledging his orders, his men prepared to rush forward, at Levi.
“Are all you f***ers bored of living already? C’mon then, make a move! I dare you!”
Whipping out two batons, Seth stared the men down without a hint of fear on his face.
He was a retired military scout who had seen more than his fair share of wars. Facing down these normal men was nothing compared to what he had faced on the battlefields.
This was the reason that Levi had hired him on, as the head of security.
“Do you regret coming with me, Seth?” Levi wondered aloud.
“Hah, as if! Since you treat me as a brother, I’m more than happy to do the same!” came Seth’s proud reply.
Smiling, Levi answered, “That’s good to know.”
Enraged, Hae-jin snarled at his men, “What the hell are you guys still standing around for? Get them!”
