Chapter 1109 Playing Games
The horn of a ship suddenly blasted and when Vinson turned in its direction, a massive vessel with its
deck loaded with containers was spotted leaning in toward the shore.
In response to it, Luke remarked, âIâm afraid those trucks that Iâve brought along arenât quite going to be
enough for the job. I may have to go borrow a couple more.â
Trevor was still under the impression that it was his goods that the former was talking about. âYou wonât
have to trouble yourself. My company has trucks, lots of them. Just let us know when you need them,
and Iâll have every bit of material sent over to you directly.â
âThatâll be too much trouble to ask of you. But we canât wait, you see, as weâll be needing those trucks
right away,â Luke said with a laugh.
Trevorâs eyes fogged over. âWould your construction site be operating overnight? Are your workers
going to work at this hour as well?â
Once more, Luke let out a boisterous hoot. âYou seem to have misunderstood, Mr. Larson.â
âWhatever do you mean? Arenât we going to transport my building materials to your worksite?â asked a
befuddled Trevor.
âNot exactly.â Luke purposefully beat about the bush as he pointed toward the large shipping vessel
that docked just in front of them. âYouâre right to assume that weâd need your help with the logistics, but
the materials that weâll be transporting arenât yours. Itâs those over there.â
When Trevor lifted his eyes to look, he saw that it was an ocean liner emblazoned with the name of an
Epean construction company that was coming in to dock.
âT-Thisâ¦â
Having had his fun, Luke finally decided to drop the bomb on his counterpart. âDonât take me for a fool,
Trevor Larson! Youâve intentionally bought out the stockpiles and construction materials producers to
prevent me from completing my project. Bet you didnât expect that Mr. Nightshire had no intentions to
source materials locally right from the start. Hence, weâve already had materials created with the most
cutting-edge technology shipped from Epea. Not only are they turbulent-proof and flood-resistant, but
they are also of excellent quality as well as affordable. As for you, expect to sink with your hoard!â
âW-What?â
The thunderstruck Trevorâs face turned pallid.
Luke felt a rush of tremendous gratification inside and continued to rub it into Trevorâs face. âDidnât you
say you wanted to lend us some trucks, Mr. Larson? Now you can. Lunchâs on me next time, eh?â he
said while he patted Trevor on the back.
In shock and outrage, Trevor swatted Lukeâs hand out of the way and strode right for Vinson. But
before he could get close enough, he found himself intercepted by Vinsonâs bodyguards.
Unable to advance any further, he could only holler at the top of his lungs. âVinson Nightshire! Are you
going to pull this on me after youâve accepted my gift? Youâre toying with me on purpose, arenât you?â
At this moment, Trevor had completely forgotten about how much he actually dreaded Vinson. His
head was in flux as though he had been buzzing in his ear.
Vinson met Trevorâs eyes with his own frigid gaze. All he saw in the latter was the fruitless struggle of a
roach.
âYou?â
He repeated what Trevor said until he lowered his gaze into a cackle.
âItâs kind of refreshing to learn how every Tom, Dick, and Harry now seem to believe that they could
dictate terms to me.â
He tilted his chin, and his discerning bodyguard went on to kick Trevorâs shin with force.
Trevor yelped in pain, and his legs gave way underneath, causing him to fall to his knees before
Vinson.
Vinson strode forward and loomed over him.
âStanding me up and trying to play games with me? Do you think that the Greenes still run Horington?
Wouldnât you like to know what kind of hellhole Mr. Greene is in right now?â
