Chapter 401
The Turnbulls were stunned, not expecting Boran to be that self–important.
Cliff was frowning as well–he had his pride as a martial artist too!
“What is the meaning of this, Mr. Lepley?” he demanded. “Why would you insult me when I showed you respect?”
Boran did not even look his way as he snorted. “You’re wrong there–I wasn’t insulting you. You’re not even worth insulting.”
“What…” Cliff was fuming–he must hit back to maintain his honor as a retainer of the Turnbulls!
However, Vicky stood in his way before he could move. “That’s enough. You’re both on our side, and it won’t do if you start fighting even before you defeat our enemies.”
“Hmph.”
Boran snorted. “I can handle the Chandlers myself, Ms. Turnbull. Why keep third–rate martial artists like him?”
“You’re out of line! Let’s see what you got!” Cliff bellowed.
It was not just him either–even Walter, Susan, and Yara had enough of Boran and was eager to send Cliff after him!
Vicky tried to intervene again, but it was too late.
With a furious cry, Cliff leapt forward, swinging his fist!
However, before his punch made contact, Boran moved at the speed of a lightning bolt, and struck Cliff on the chest with his palm!
Cliff could feel the pain on his chest even as he was sent flying.
Frank was actually caught by surprise as he looked on.
He knew that Cliff did not stand a chance but did not expect Boran to go for the kill!
They were both working for the Turnbulls–Boran should not go that far even if there was bad blood between them!
Leaping away, he launched forward to catch Cliff by the shoulder, nullifying most of the momentum and helping Cliff straighten himself.
Cliff certainly knew that he was spared further harm aside from the chest pain thanks to Frank, or it would have been much worse for him.
Despite his fear toward Boran’s palm strike, he gulped and told Frank under his breath, “T- Thank you, Mr. Lawrence.”
“Wow… You don’t expect anything less of the eighth Earthrank,” Susan muttered in quiet approval, sighing.
Cliff was her personally appointed bodyguard and plenty strong, but he did not even last a blow against Boran.
Neil was shocked too he already knew Earthrank elites were impressive, but that was still something really special
It was such a shame he did not get to meet more men like Boran!
Only Walter and Vicky appeared worried, even as Boran glared at Frank and Cliff in disdain.” You’re lucky this time, kdd insult me again, and you’ll be resting in pieces.”
Turning toward Vicky, he added, “I’m going to get some rest. You can wire the rest of my fee in the meantime.”
Vicky nodded and quicldy had a servant take Boran to a guest room
After seeing Boran leave, Walter hurried to Vicky’s side. “Where did you find him, Vicky? He’s so…. full of himself!”
“From the dark web. This is the only plan I have against the Chandlers.” Vicky sighed.
“And how much is his fee?”
“Thirty million dollars.”
