My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 389

How dare he speak against a great-grandmaster?

“You don’t seem like good news… Besides, your skills aren’t refined enough!”

Finn had a disdainful look in his eyes.

He might have considered the request if he were a great-grandmaster.

However, he saw no need for them to take in a mere grandmaster.

How arrogant!

The fat man nearly began spitting curses at them.

Ken was a martial arts grandmaster, so why were they making him seem less threatening than a speck of dust?

Xeno, on the other hand, was tempted.

Dragon Tiger Gate housed less than six martial arts grandmasters, and they were all Theo’s men.

Most families usually paid martial arts grandmasters a monthly salary with a starting price of a hundred thousand dollars to serve and protect their families.

However, he did not have the means to hire grandmasters using such methods.

The bald man lowered his head and remained silent.

He had been working with this contractor for the past three years and had never asked him for any food or money other than what he needed to survive. The clothes on his back had not been replaced for over two years.

In the past three years, he had provided the contractor protection eight times and had even saved him minutes before he lost his life several times.

He had long since repaid what he owed them for saving his life.

He would be wasting his time if he continued working for the contractor.

Joining a great-grandmaster’s ranks would greatly benefit his cultivation skills as well.

“You should take Ken with you… Otherwise, all his martial arts skills would go to waste!”

The contractor abruptly knelt on the ground before them.

Ken would leave sooner or later. It was just that the perfect opportunity had never made itself known. Ken had helped him so many times, and he would only be doing him a disservice if he made Ken stay.

“Cole… you…”

Ken had never expected his usually high-and-mighty contractor to get on his knees to beg on his behalf.

The contractor ignored him and pressed his head to the ground.

The rough ground scratched the skin on his forehead.

Finn gave Nash an awkward look. “Nash… What do you think…”

“You’re an adult. Can’t you come to a conclusion by yourself?”

Nash turned and walked toward the rest stop without a second look back.

His disciples would one day become leaders.

His former martial brothers tattled on him after realizing what he was doing, and he was banished after getting whipped.

“I was whipped so badly that my head cracked open… I had to get 12 stitches on my head… This tattoo is here to cover the scars!”

Ken pointed at the scorpion tattoo on his head.

“I can’t believe that the holy martial arts temple and monastery would judge others by their appearance! They seem like such prestigious organizations!”

“But, to be fair, you do seem rather untrustworthy. You'd be a great addition to any film production cast you decide to join!”

Finn crossed one leg over the other as he teased Ken.

Xeno grinned. “Why don’t you join my ranks? I’ll take you with me when I need to collect rent. You’d be an excellent threat to have standing nearby!”

Ken gave Xeno a confused look.

He did not know who the others were yet.

Especially Nash, who was seated in front of him.

The man did not seem particularly impressive, but the aura that emanated from his body told him otherwise.

“Oh, right… Allow me to introduce everyone!”

“The man in the driver’s seat is Xeno. He’s the second-in-command of Dragon Tiger Gate, one of the four most powerful underworld forces in Jonford… You’ll have to address him as Mr. Hun!

“The other man is Nash Calcraft… He’s our boss!”
