Chapter 914
Johanna smirked at Armand smugly as she chewed her food, but the latter did not say anything to her.
At that instant, Johanna knew that she would be at the receiving end of Armand's murderous glare if Genevieve did
not get to eat at all. Thankfully, the thoughtful Harry volunteered to grill some meat for her with the excuse that
she should not dirty her hands.
Johanna was touched. “Kiddo, you're too kindhearted. I'll remember to give you a good rate when we sign the
contract. An hourly wage of thirty thousand! How about that?”
“Whoa! Thanks, Jojo,” Harry responded obediently.
Genevieve had eaten some when they were sitting in the main hall. Hence, she felt full after munching another few
small pieces of grilled meat in the private room. Moments later, she headed to the restroom, and Johanna followed

With that, three men were left behind in the room, and the atmosphere became so thick that one could cut it with a
knife.
Initially, Jesse wanted to seize the opportunity to puff at a cigarette. Right when he lit one, he caught Armand
staring at him across the table.
The man narrowed his deep-set eyes, and his gaze pierced through Jesse. Though the former remained calm, Jesse
felt as though Armand was tightly clenching his throat, intending to suffocate him.
Jesse had been around the underworld for a very long time. He had seen it all, and death could not hold him
ransom. However, he was terrified by Armand's penetrating stare. It sent a cold chill down his spine.
He swiftly removed the cigarette from his mouth and stubbed it out in the ashtray.
Then, Armand stood up and approached Harry, who was about to enjoy a slice of watermelon.
He greeted Armand with a pair of innocent eyes. “Mr. Faulkner—■”
Before he could utter another word, Armand clasped his neck and lifted him from his chair.
He dug his fingers deeper into the young man's skin and watched his face turn purple.
The panic-stricken Jesse hurried over and knocked down a chair on his way. Instinctively, he reached for his front
pocket but froze when Armand shot him a fierce look.
He was aware of all the rumors that warned people not to trifle with Armand. However, he had never had a
personal encounter with him.
Their meet-up that day was quite an experience for him. Though they did not exchange a single word, the two
intense stares received from Armand were sufficient to give Jesse the heebie-jeebies. He could not help but
succumb to Armand's domineering aura.
Suffocating, Harry tried to push Armand's hand away. Tears welled up in the corner of his eyes, making him look
downright pitiful.
“I can see through you and your little tricks, Harry. I know the game that you're playing.” Armand lowered his head

“I don't know...” Harry used all his might to string his sentence together. “What you're talking about...”
Hearing that, Armand tightened his clasp on Harry's neck. “You've attempted to make Genevieve see me with Sally
and tried to sow discord among us. I can't believe that a young guy like you is more wicked than Jack.”
Subsequently, he pulled Harry closer and stared at his face, which had turned blue. “You eavesdropped on our
conversations with Charice,” he stated firmly.
Harry tried to gasp for air and said nothing.
“Don't play tricks on me and think you have the upper hand.” Armand warned coldly, “I don't want to kill people.
However, if you continue to brew delusional thoughts about my wife, I'll let you experience being kidnapped once
more, just like the one you had when you were a child.”
When he saw Harry shudder with fear, Armand smirked. “I will know what I want to know. Remember, I can make a
dead man talk.”
His aura was so imposing that even Jesse felt like he could not quite breathe.
Afterward, Armand flung Harry away. Jesse quickly went up and held the latter to prevent him from falling.
Harry was abducted by Hans Group and locked inside a metal bucket, which caused him to be claustrophobic. From
what Armand said, there seems to be more to the story...
