Chapter 61: Eat More If You're Hungry



Chapter 61: Eat More If You're Hungry

Kent was starving. After working late into the night yesterday, he hadn’t eaten since morning and felt like he could devour an entire cow!

He eagerly wiped his hands, which he’d just used to scratch his toes, on his pants and rubbed them together in anticipation of the meal. Saliva flooded his mouth, making his hunger even more unbearable. He swallowed it down and snapped impatiently, "What are you two idiots standing there for?"

Seeing the two men who had already gone out lingering near the door, Kent couldn’t help but grow irritated. “Hurry up and bring the stuff over! Don’t tell me you went out and didn’t bring back any food, for f’s sake!”

As the owner of an underground casino and the younger brother of a senior gang member, Kent wasn’t one to tolerate dissatisfaction—unless it was from his brother. Since the day he used a bat to kill the neighbor who had bullied them, anyone who displeased him faced his wrath.

But when a third person stepped out from behind the door, Kent froze. He didn’t even bother to lift himself off the chair. Instead, he turned and bolted toward the back room.

His chair’s armrest snagged his pants, disrupting his movement and sending him sprawling to the floor. He ended up on one knee, the other leg kicking against the ground in a half-risen pose.

At that moment, he mentally cursed his henchmen and doormen’s families three times over. He vowed to teach them a lesson once this ordeal was over.

Before Kent could even reach the back room, a gunshot rang out.
