Chapter 692 - Took The Bait

Theo smiled and leaned back on his cough before stating, "I will bring down the Pata Corporation within two weeks. However, you're not going to touch the Mota Family for another two weeks after that."

"Huh?" Carmelo narrowed his eyes, not understanding Theo's statement. Theo felt like he wanted to destroy the Mota Family and protect them at the same time. This was very contradictory.

But Theo added, "Living in fear and regret is the best way to torture someone else, right?"

Carmelo widened his eyes as he never expected Theo to say something like that. He thought Theo was a good person. But with this statement, Theo reminded him of the Griffith Family's cruelness.

'As expected from the Griffith Family, no matter what, the blood still runs through their veins…' Carmelo thought.

"That's something I can guarantee, but…" Carmelo glanced at him with a suspicious gaze.

Theo calmly said, "We can even make a written contract with this. In exchange for my condition and the reward, I will bring down the Pata Corporation and will do nothing related to you after those two weeks."

Carmelo narrowed his eyes and took out his Skylink. "As expected, I need proof first."

"Sure. Call the lawyer here and we will proceed with the contract. Of course, I need your help if I want to take down the Pata Corporation."

"That's understandable. If you need resources from me, I will help you as much as I can. In case you fail, you're going to reimburse me at least fifty percent of those resources."

"Sounds like a deal." Theo smiled.

After a call, the lawyer entered the room and they finalized the contract. It was a pretty simple contract like Theo stated, and both parties signed it without hesitation.

In that instant, Carmelo smiled and extended his hand. "Happy cooperation."

Theo shook his hand as he said, "Now that we have settled the contract, I need you to make a move immediately."

"Hoh?" Carmelo narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

"We will weaken them first. If you use your power to create conflict among themselves, it will be hard to do so. But it's different for me. If you tell them that I'm going to mess with them if they don't back down, it will surely be effective, right?"

"!!!" Carmelo widened his eyes as a huge grin appeared on his face. "Hahahahaha! I like that method."

Carmelo obviously understood what the enemies would experience if he used Theo's reputation.

Although it was kind of good in front of the public, Theo was nothing but a devil for those who dug his information deeper.

'In front of the public, he's a hero outshining many others. They don't know that he has been messing with the Czar and the Griffith Family. Only those who have a deep enough information network know this information.

'Obviously, those people know what this means… If Theo decides to play with them, they're going to face the same problem as the Czar. Even the Griffith Family has been shaken to the point they lose one of their vassals.

'To think everything is resolved with just a single piece of information… And obviously, he's using that contract to make them believe that he's planning to take down the Pata Corporation.

'In other words, everything he has done until this point is to create an ultimatum to the Pata Corporation.'

"Well, that's all." Theo smiled while stroking Ava's head on his lap. "I believe you know what to do…"

"Of course. I will make sure to weaken them as much as possible."

"Good." Theo thought for a moment and said, "I will be back in four days. By that time, those who still stay will surely last until the end. In contrast, those who are scared will back down.

"It will be the time I make a move depending on their actions. If you have something to say, send someone to my hotel. If there's nothing wrong, I will remain there."

"I understand. It's truly an honor to meet the infamous Theodore Griffith." Carmelo paused for a moment before his eyes became cold. "Though… I would like to ask what your view is regarding Lorenzo?"

Theo looked at him with an uninterested question. "Such a dumb question… He's obviously an opponent that I need to defeat. I am a free man who can choose any influence, including the War God Family.

"For me, the War God Family is just a stepping stone. If I can't even handle this stuff, I will be nothing in front of the world." Theo snorted, shifting the focus from Lorenzo to the War God Family.

For Carmelo, however, this was more important than Lorenzo. After all, their backer indeed wanted to fight against the War God Family.

If they could take care of Lorenzo and make Theo mess with the War God Family, the moment Theo left them in the future, they would be able to attack the War God Family with confidence. There was no way Theo would sacrifice himself for the War God Family.

'Still, he's dangerous to be kept alive. I will take advantage of his presence to mess with the War God Family, and when the chance arrives, I will eliminate him.' Carmelo smiled inwardly, thinking, 'You're going to play according to my plan.'

Theo, on the other hand, didn't hesitate to rise from his seat and walked away. "I believe this is enough, right?"

"Of course. Let me ask someone to drive you to your hotel."

"There's no need. I don't like someone near me if they don't have any business with me." Theo slammed the door and walked away.

Carmelo smiled as he returned to his seat while muttering in a low voice. "Good, good. Everything is according to the plan."

Little did he know, Ava's intelligence wasn't like a normal pet. The reason why he left the room after inciting his greed was to make Carmelo drop his guard.

And that was successful as Ava tapped Theo's check twice as the signal that Carmelo had taken the bait.

It was at this moment that Theo smiled, albeit inwardly.
