A contract to provide her services to the Quinlan Sect?
Nora frowned and looked at the document in his hand.
Winston sneered, âOh, I forgot to tell you, but the car racing club will be the Quinlan Sectâs very soon. We, the Quinlan Sect, warmly invite you to our team. I should think that with Yanci around, our team will always win!â
Nora, â?â
Her brows drew together. She asked puzzledly, âHas Mr. Hoffman agreed to this?â
Winston replied, âOf course.â
His eyes flickered and he added, âWould I dare to do something like this if he hadnât?â
Nora didnât care how exactly they carried out their dealings with each other, but⦠using Caleb to threaten her?
She cast her eyes down dispassionately. âIâm not interested in your club.â
She walked straight to Caleb after she spoke. She wasnât intending to waste her breath and was planning to leave immediately after saving the man.
However, before she could walk over, Winston stopped in front of her again. He said, âI know you enjoy a lot of freedom when you race abroad, Ms. Smith, but itâs impossible to survive in the car racing industry in the States if you donât have anyone backing you up. Didnât Logan also rely on Jordan Hoffman back then? The benefits youâll enjoy will only be better than that if you join the Quinlan Sect! Do you know who the one backing up the Quinlan Sect is?â
Noraâs eyes were still downcast. âIâm not interested.â
ââ¦â Winston became anxious. He said, âThe one backing up the Quinlan Sect is the Quinn School of Martial Arts! You should have heard of them before, right? They are very well-known in the pugilistic world! As long as you sign the contract, both the Quinlan Sect and the Quinn School of Martial Arts will back you up in New York in the future, no matter what happens!â
Nora was dumbfounded. âThe Quinn School of Martial Arts?â
Her reaction made Winston heave a sigh of relief. He replied, âYes, the Quinn School of Martial Arts! Mr. Quinlan is their unofficial disciple. This is something that everyone knows. Itâs exactly because of the Quinn School of Martial Arts that even Jordan Hoffman doesnât dare to mess with Mr. Quinlan.â
Nora, ââ¦â
What the heck was this mess?
Were all of the Quinn School of Martial Artsâ unofficial disciples this arrogant outside?
She broke into a frown.
Winston tried painstakingly to convince her. He said, âYou must be scared at the mention of the Quinn School of Martial Arts, right? Then sign this obediently. I can even promise you that as long as you sign the contract and maintain a good relationship with me, I will let your fiancéâs pharmaceutical factory open smoothly in New York!â
Winston gazed at Nora greedily when he said that.
That woman was Yanci. She had looked so beautiful and sassy when she was racing, making him itch for her even more. Conquering a woman like her would give him an even bigger sense of accomplishment.
Especially in bedâ¦
His smile turned lewd.
A mellow and gentle voice reached them at this point.
âSo, itâs your doing that my application to establish a pharmaceutical factory keeps getting rejected?â
Nora looked at Caleb.
Despite being tied up, he remained calm and collected in the face of danger, which gave him an additional sense of frail beauty. That visage of his didnât look like a thirty-year-old at all; he clearly looked like a princeâoh, one that was in distress thoughâwalking out of a comic instead.
His words pulled Winston back from his daydreaming to reality. He looked back at him and said with a grin, âOh my, so youâre finally aware of the reason now! The Grays may be something in California, but youâre nothing in New York. So, you want to expand your business in New York? Have you asked us, the Myerses, for permission yet? Have you asked the pharmaceutical industry here for permission yet? Heh, New York is our turf, with the pharmaceutical industry particularly so. Without the Myersesâ permission, thereâs absolutely no way your familyâs pharmaceutical factory can ever be established here! Even though youâve already decided on the factory site, you just keep failing the license application, right? Hahaha!â
Realization dawned upon Caleb. âI see. So, thatâs why.â
Winston glanced at Nora again. âOf course, if Ms. Smiths signs this contract, then that will make us family. Your affairs will also be the Myersesâ, so Iâll definitely take good care of you! We can mutually benefit each other. You should know what I want, right?â
His gaze swept up and down Nora as he spoke, his intentions obvious.
The eyes of Caleb and Justin, who had just entered the room, darkened at the same time.
Caleb cast his eyes down, his long eyelashes casting silhouettes on his cheeks. His glasses were already close to falling off his nose bridge. His eyes were icy-cold as he said, âThatâs impossible. You donât have to compromise for my sake, Noraâ¦â
Winston flew into a rage when he heard him. He stepped forward and slapped Caleb across his cheek, causing Calebâs head to turn to the side. He looked even more like a meek little woman being bullied now.
A handprint soon formed on his fair cheek.
After slapping him, Winston snapped furiously, âShut up!â
Only then did he turn back.
He was about to speak when he instead saw Noraâs expression turn cold. She said, âYou must have a death wish!â
Just as she was about to take action, the guard at the door finally discovered Justinâs presence. He bellowed angrily, âWho are you? What are you doing here?â
Nora looked back to see the men at the door walking toward Justin.
For a moment there, she didnât know whether she should save Justin or Caleb first.
In the midst of her hesitation, she saw Justin stride forward. He headed straight for Caleb, kicking away whoever blocked his path on his way there.
His long legs delivered accurate and ruthless kicks, while his punches were quick and unpredictable. Before anyone could even see his moves clearly, Justin had already dropped them all.
Winston had brought more than ten men with him, but all of them were lying on the ground at the moment. Some had outright fainted while some were groaning in pain.
Frightened witless, he stared at Justin in disbelief. He swallowed and asked, âM-Mr. Hunt? Why are you here? I⦠Iâm from the Quinlan Sect. Our boss is from the Quinn School of Martial Arts. Y-youâ¦â
Justin went right up to him and kicked him right at the crotch!
Bam!
As Winston flew through the air, the pain at his crotch made his vision blacken. He felt that that particular place had likely brokenâ¦
Everyone else that was still conscious subconsciously clamped their legs together tightly, suddenly feeling a little worried for their family jewels.
Nora didnât have the opportunity to do anything, nor did she have such worries, so she walked straight to Caleb and untied the ropes around him.
Caleb got to his feet after he was freed. He was about to thank Nora when his legs suddenly gave way, seemingly from having been tied up for a little too long.
Nora was about to subconsciously grab him when another arm held up Caleb faster than she could.
Her line of sight followed the sturdy and powerful arm to see Justin staring straight at Caleb while pulling a long face. He said, âYouâre welcome, Mr. Gray.â
The subtext: âI was the one who saved you just now, so donât try to get close to Nora on the pretext of thanking her.â
Caleb: ââ¦â
He moved his ankles a little. After he steadied himself on his feet, he finally looked at Winston and the others, who had collapsed on the ground. A dark glint flashed across his eyes as he stroked his cheek, but he lowered his gaze the next moment, concealing the glint within.
Seeing that he was fine, Nora took out the contract that Winston had wanted her to sign. After giving it a rough skim, she took out her cell phone and said, âIâll ask Mrs.. Hoffman what exactly is going on with the Quinlan Sectâs acquisition of the club.â
