Chapter 404 Trouble Everywhere Albert shook his head and replied, “The construction of this three-
lane highway is not a part of the project for Lord Campbell Avenue. This is your private project, so we
require a separate compensation.” “Aren’t you worried about delaying the construction of Lord
Campbell Avenue and angering him?” threatened Jennifer. The truth was that she wasn’t confident in
her threat at all. Albert laughed. “That is the one thing I don’t need to worry about. Your mission was to
construct the project at Lord Campbell Avenue, but you personally wanted to build this three-lane
highway.
This isn’t a part of Lord Campbell’s project, so why would I care? Besides, you invested so many
resources into building this separate three-lane highway that has nothing to do with him. Shouldn’t you
be the one who should be worried about his wrath?” Jennifer was so angry that she was trembling.
Albert’s eyes glowed with lust as he scanned Jennifer from head to toe. Even he couldn’t deny that
Jennifer was truly gorgeous. She is so much better than those so-called models who depend heavily on
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttheir make-up to look beautiful. Albert paused for a moment before he continued making his demands.
“Okay, I don’t want to waste any more time here. Transfer the money to my bank account right now, or
else…” Jennifer replied, “I will never comply! Let’s go, guys.” She turned around to leave. Thump! A
shoe flew toward her and hit her right on the back of her head, causing her to stumble and almost fall.
Furious, Jennifer turned around and saw Andrew removing his other shoe.
His eyes shone with menace when he looked at her, and with his cap on, he looked like a gangster.
The overall aura he exuded would make anyone uncomfortable. “That is too much!” roared Jennifer
angrily. Kevin threatened, “What the hell was that? You realize we can call the cops on you, right?” “Go
ahead. I’ll admit defeat if you can get them to respond in any way,” replied Albert arrogantly as he lit up
a cigarette. Jennifer was going to leave right away when the secretary she had recently hired suddenly
called her. “Ms. Wilson, something terrible has happened! Over a hundred people have gathered at our
office, and they even brought funeral wreaths.” “I will head over right now,” replied Jennifer before she
turned to Kevin. “Give me your car keys.” Kevin was taken aback.
He seemed reluctant to hand his car over. “Jennifer, maybe you could hail a cab instead?” Skylar said,
“He’s right. It might be for the best since he has to drop me off at home later.” “Hand it over!” growled
Jennifer, her expression turning icy. Kevin was too cowardly to go against her, so he handed the keys
over. Jennifer was actually a great driver. After she took the keys, she stepped on the gas and hurried
all the way back to the office. She had just reached the ground floor when she became infuriated at
what she saw right in front of her. Over a hundred men in suits were sitting on the floor and making a
ruckus.
Several funeral wreaths had also been placed around the entrance. Many onlookers had gathered
around and were staring at Jennifer with pity in their eyes. They knew that Jennifer was in trouble
because she had offended the second most powerful clan in the city. What was happening now was
one of the family’s favorite moves, and it always worked wonders. “Ms. Wilson, pay us now, or we will
have people bring you a coffin later,” threatened a burly man before he sneered. Jennifer kicked away
one of the wreaths and demanded, “Where is security? Have them kick the troublemakers out of here
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmright now!” Her new secretary showed up with reddened eyes. A palm mark rested on her cheek, and it
was obvious that someone had slapped her. “There was a fight, and they were sent to the hospital
because they were injured.” Jennifer was so angry she wanted to scream.
Over a hundred men had gathered near the office. Even though they weren’t fighting or anything, they
were still disrupting the company’s operations just by lying there. Jennifer began calling for
reinforcements, but everyone gave her some excuse and hung up after they heard about how the
Winston family was behind it. No one dared to cross the clans because that was how powerful they
were. They were like superglue and were impossible to get rid of once they decided on their target.
Years ago, Zayne faced similar issues. It was so troublesome that he chose to pay them just to have
some peace. Jennifer actually thought about compromising as well, but she couldn’t afford it since she
only had a few million in her account. Just as she was at a loss, her phone rang once more. Linda’s
panicked voice came over the phone after the line was established. “Jennifer, come quick.
They are beating Kev up!” Jennifer stomped angrily, but she had no choice. She had to take the
elevator back down to the ground floor, hop into the car, and drive to Reclamation Area One. She had
just arrived when she saw Kevin on the ground with a bleeding nose. His eye was bruised, and it was
obvious he had been beaten.
