As soon as he saw Nicole coming in, Samuel said, "Nicole, are you really going to marry him so soon?"
"Yeah... you just came back home, and we won't be sharing the last name very soon." Spencer added, looking very disappointed.
Stanley looked at them, grabbed them by the back of their necks, and pulled them back. "That's enough. Stop harassing Nicole. Are you two not going to have your own family in the future?"
Samuel slumped over in his seat. "It's not that... I just didn’t expect Nicole to marry so soon when Sean and Steve don't even have a girlfriend..."
Sean's face darkened. "Why did you have to drag me into this? Are you tired of breathing?"
Samuel immediately corrected himself, "N-No... I was saying that Nicole had her life all figured out, and yet, none of us are catching up to her at all."
Five of them were all older than Nicole, but none of them had a girlfriend. The fact that Nicole was going to get married before they would was simply humiliating
Nicole looked at Samuel's face and flashed him a smirk." Samuel, you sound like you're very desperate for a girlfriend."
All of a sudden, Samuel became very awkward. "What? How?
"You complained that you didn't have a female partner not long ago, and now you're jealous that I'm getting married. Tsk, tsk.
Samuel, are you going through puberty right now?"
“Pfft.” Steve laughed and the coffee that he was drinking spurted out of his nose "Ha-ha! I thought so too!”
The atmosphere became a lot happier after Nicole had made fun of Samuel.
"Samuel, many girls in school have written love letters to you, and yet, none of them are good enough?” Stanley joined his siblings to mock Samuel.
Then, Spencer added, "Somebody just gave him another one at the basketball court two days ago... She looked kind of pretty too."
"Shut up!" Samuel stood up, annoyed.
He then pinned Spencer down, trying to shut him up.
Nicole lifted her brows. "Spencer and Samuel are really popular. Looks like I've got to get it done quicker.
Her words stunned everybody.
However, Nicole had gone upstairs before they could interpret what her words meant.
This caused Sean and Steve to look at each other. "What did Nicole say?"
"Something about... getting something done quicker...?"
The five brothers then look at each other simultaneously, though none of them knew what Nicole was talking about.
Soon, the sky turned dark, and a Rolls-Royce was seen coasting on the freeway.
It drove past the cross-river bridge, and Jared saw the part of the bridge where the accident had happened, and had been recently repaired. His eyes became extremely frosty as he called Janus on the phone.Max had ordered him to take care of the driver which had fled at the border and he figured that he might have talked already. Very soon, the call connected, and Jared heard Janus's voice."
“Hello, Mr. Johnston.”
Jared then spoke in a deep, low voice. “Any updates?"
Janus paused for a moment as he looked at the person who was in a complete mess after he had interrogated him. "This man is a professional hitman, and he's working for an organization. He just wouldn't say a word."
Janus was starting to lose his patience after it had taken him close to a week to settle something that was supposed to be done within just three days.
Jared's gaze turned ruthless and cold. "Bury him alive then.”
Janus had put Jared on speaker when they were conversing. Marked for death, the hired gun, who was covered in blood shuddered upon hearing what Jared had said.
‘I guess my time is up...’
A vicious look suddenly flashed across Janus's face. "Okay. I'll give him one last chance..."
After that, he hung up.
Jared did not bother ask any more questions, but he knew that the way Janus in which dealt with the other professional killers was just as brutal as the methods employed by those during the medieval times.
