Chapter 72
The Greatest Man Alive
âHah, donât act recklessly? I will see who acts recklessly!â Graceâs face suddenly turned cold, then she clapped her hands hard.
Clap Clap! Clap!
After three claps, the doors of several rooms on the first floor were opened, and bodyguards in black suits appeared one after another. On the upper left of their suits hung a gold-plated dragon, the logo of the Negino Commerce.
More than a dozen strong men stood in a row behind Grace with their hands behind their backs and sized Nathan and Natalie with an icy gaze.
Graceâs heart couldnât help but turn to water because these people were all members of the Negino Commerce Grace made sufficient preparations to deal with Nathan and Natalie.
âHow? Do you still want to fight with me?â Grace asked slowly, looking at Nathan disdainfully.
Nathan glanced expressionlessly at the bodyguards from the Negino Commerce standing behind Grace and remained calm. In his eyes, they were nothing more than a sh*t.
Grace picked up a cigarette from the table and put it into her mouth.
A bodyguard beside her instantly took out a lighter, flicked it with a snap, and brought the flame close to Graceâs mouth.
Grace lit the cigarette, took a puff, and said with a smile, âWerenât you wildly arrogant just now? You arenât say a word after seeing so many people here?â
Nathan shook his head and said, âI donât want to say some nonsense. You seem not going to apologize for what you did?â
âApologize? Are you kidding me? I am such a noble person. Bow my head and apologize to you two sons of b*tch?!â
âThere is no such thing in this world! So ridiculous!â Grace said coldly, and her throat kept letting out sneers.
âI have already told you my conditions. How to choose is your business. However, I must tell you, even if you donât bow your heads now, you will still kneel in front of me after the Johnson Group goes bankrupt.â
âI only ask you to kneel for three days now, which is my kindness.â The mocking smile on Graceâs face became more evident, and she looked at Natalie and Nathan with a wildly arrogant look.
âMiller, give me Neginoâs phone number.â Without responding to Grace, Nathan took out his cell and made a call to Miller.
Miller didnât talk too much and immediately told Nathan the number. Miller and Negino had been inmates, and both were famous figures in Mimar City, so it was normal for them to have some contact with each other.
After hearing Nathanâs words, Grace couldnât help but sneer, âDo you want Mr. Mendezâs phone number? Why the act? I can give it to you!â
He put on an act here. How could he know Mr. Mendez?
I think he wants to scare Miss Cole, but he doesnât know Miss Cole is Mr. Mendezâs favorite woman.
Thatâs right. Even if he can call Mr. Mendez, he shoots himself in the foot!
These bodyguards couldnât help sneering. They thought Nathan didnât realize the seriousness of the matter and felt ridiculous that he asked Negino for help after slapping Neginoâs woman. After all, Negino was famous for being overbearing and for covering his peopleâs faults.
Seeing the scene, Natalie was already very anxious. She also couldnât believe Nathan had such contacts that he could call people like Negino. Moreover, Graceâs backer was Negino. Even if he got in touch with Negino, it would only worsen circumstances. Negino would not take their side.
âHello?â Neginoâs voice came from the cell phone.
âThis is Nathan,â Nathan said calmly When Negino heard this voice, he immediately trembled. As he expected, Nathan came to him.
At the gate of the Negino Commerce that day, the reason why he pretended not to see Negino was that he hoped Nathan would not find him. But now, he couldnât avoid him no matter how he struggled.
âWell⦠Mr. Nathan, I havenât seen you in a while. Why would you think of contacting me?â Negino laughed politely with some nervousness and embarrassment.
âWhat happened at the door of the Negino Commerce that day was my subordinateâs fault. Iâve already taught him a lesson⦠So⦠Could you let go of me?â
Nathan said coldly, âLoach, Iâm at Graceâs villa right now, and sheâs bringing a dozen members of your Negino Commerce to plan to teach me a lesson. Do you want to come and see?â
âWhat?â Nathanâs words frightened Negino to death.
âKeep the act. I donât believe anyone dares to call Mr. Mendez Loach!â
âHeâs all bark and no bite. Hah⦠I saw someone insulting Mr. Mendez last time, resulting in his two legs being broken that night.â
âThere must be no one on the other end of the phone. Is it interesting to put on airs here?â
When the bodyguards saw this scene, they couldnât help laughing mockingly and thinking Nathan was putting on an act.
Grace crossed her arms around her chest and sneered, âLet him continue to put on airs. If Mr. Mendez is not called over within ten minutes, you can break his limbs. I will call Mr. Mendez to come here and see this no-good!â
The bodyguards couldnât help but nod.
Nathan said, âYour woman told me she gave you ten minutes. If you donât come, she will break my limbs.â
âMr. Nathan, please calm down! You can sit down, drink tea, and smoke a cigarette first. I will be right up!â Negino exclaimed, and an extremely flustered sound came from the phone. âHurry up! Drive me to Graceâs villa!â
Nathan hung up the phone and put it in his pocket.
âWhy drop the act? Canât you continue?â Grace looked at Nathan with a half-smile and asked.
Nathan turned to Natalie and said, âAre you thirsty? Do you want me to pour you a glass of water?â
Nathanâs words brought Natalie up short, and she exclaimed, âNathan, do you really have something wrong with your brain?â
Nathan picked up a glass, poured two glasses of water, and gave one to Natalie.
âIâve been thirsty for a long time for harping with this woman,â said Nathan with a smile.
Natalie had no choice but kept silent. She doubted whether there was something wrong with his brain or he was frightened by Grace.
Grace patiently looked at her exquisite wristwatch. Ten minutes later, she raised her head with a bright smile and said, âItâs been ten minutes, but Mr. Mendez hasnât arrived yet!â
Natalie couldnât help biting her lower lip. She thought she was right that Nathanâs phone call was just an act, and he couldnât contact such an important person as Negino.
âHit him! Wallop him! Break his limbs!â Grace shouted coldly in a deep voice.
A dozen or so bodyguards immediately moved and surrounded both Nathan and Natalie.
Natalie burst into tears helplessly and begged, âMiss Cole, I will knee! for you. Please donât beat him.â
âAll right! Kneel and kowtow to me! Kowtow hard! You canât stop until I tell you to stop!â Grace said mockingly.
After Grace finished her words, Natalie bent her knees and was about to kneel.
