The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

55 Chapter 149 A Dog Stays a Dog , No Matter How Long It Lives Chapter 149 A Dog Stays a Dog , No Matter How Long It Lives Mitchell thought long and hard , glancing nervously at Drake , who had maintained a blank expression this whole time .

The silence from Drake made him even more uneasy .

Clearly , there was more to the Dum Groups 100 billion investment in Southvale than it seemed .

If the Dunn Group won big on this gamble , the Dunns would rise as true billion dollar moguls .

Knowing Drakes character , he would never spare those who betrayed him And for Mitchell and the others to cash out at this moment was like stabbing the Dunns in the back when they were most vulnerable .

Drake would undoubtedly crush them without hesitation .

After all , as the leading powerhouse in Harmonfield , the Dunns needed to establish their reputation in this ruthless world .

Having followed Drake for so many years , Mitchell knew full well that those who fell under the Dunn Groups shadow werent just rivals they included former allies who had betrayed the Dunns along the way .

This was the power of artrue overlord .

* There was no such thing as parting on good terms in this world .

Mitchell suddenly realized he had made a monumental mistake .

He had grown too comfortable over the years and had somehow forgotten that Drake , the fierce tiger , still had sharp fangs hidden beneath that calm facade .

The thought sent a chill down his spine .

Trembling , he stepped forward .

Drake … Mr.

Dunn Sr … I was thinking ….

Drakes expressionless face broke into a broad smile .

Mitchell , its alright .

Youre cashing out , and I have no objections .

To be honest , youve been with me for so many years .

Now that youre leaving .

Ill admit Ill miss you a bit .

But so be it ! Everyone has their own path .

If youve chosen to leave the Dunn Group to pursue bigger opportunities , thats perfectly understandable ! Go without worry .

Once youve collected your money , youre free to walk out .

With me here , no one from the Dunns will dare to stop you ! A violent shiver ran down Mitchells spine .

Drake , thats not what I meant .

I I was saying , I think I wont cash out after all 1/5 09:38 Thu , Nov 21 BGB Chapter 149 A Dog Stays a Dog, No Matter How Long It Lives Drake looked at him coldly .

Mitchell , dont feel any burden on your conscience .

Go and take care of your own business .

Til like a moment of quiet Kames , finally realizing the gravity of the situation , hurried forward as well .

birth and death are part of lifes natural cycle .

Business and relationships are the same ! And of course , business is about profit ! If youre not thinking about profit , and only about loyalty whats the point of doing business ? Drake waved his hand , and two bodyguards stepped in front of Mitchell and Barney Mr.

Klime , Mr.

Weaver , please return to your seats .

Mr Dunn Sr.

is tired and needs some peace and quiet .

Michel realized that Drake had completely cut them off from the Dunns After hesitating for a long moment , he rushed in front of Shirley .

Shirley .

I want to retract my withdrawal Mine did you think the agreements signed by the Dunns were a joke ? Shirley gave Mitchell and Surry a cold look Youre worked with my grandpa for decades dont you know the Dunns principles by now ? Just wait over there your money will arrive in half an hour Mnckell hadnt expected Shirley to give him no leeway whatsoever Angry , he snapped , Shirley .

tays a Dog , No Matter How Long It Lives +16 Fine Cont At that moment , they finally understood the Dunns connections and resources were far from what they had assumed .

They were nowhere near their twilight .

True , the Dunn Group hadnt seen major growth under Shirleys leadership in the past two years , And after Liam took over the Hamiltons Universal Group , hed been applying significant pressure on them .

The Dunn Groups performance hadnt been great .

Rumors had spread that the Dunn Groups 100 billion investment in Southvale was a last ditch gamble , leaving them in a near bankrupt state , unable to raise any further funds .

But now , here was all this cash .

What did that say ? This level of capital maneuvering proved that the Dunn Group was still rock solid .

Michell let out a long sigh .

Barney , we might have made a huge mistake tonight .

Barney looked anxious .

Mr.

Kline , in that case , we need to go beg Mr.

Dunn Sr.

to take back the agreements we signed Mitchell glanced at Drake from afar .

At that moment , Drake was deep in conversation with Robin , laughing and enjoying himself .

Ten bodyguards stood around , keeping Mitchell and the others at a distance .

The message was clear Drake didnt want them anywhere near him .

Mitchell understood now .

Drake had truly abandoned them .

At the Dunns most critical moment , he , Mitchell , had chosen to betray them .

Drake , the fierce tiger , would never welcome him back Years ago , when Mitchell had been penniless , chased by loan sharks , it was Drake who had saved him .

From that moment , Mitchell had followed him through countless battles , achieving everything he had today because of Drake .

With a bitter smile , Mitchell looked at the stacks of cash in front of him , lost in thought Fine If that was how it was going to be , hed grit his teeth and move forward .

Maybe , just maybe , the Dunns were bluffing again Over the years , hed seen Drake use similar tactics to intimidate those who dared to betray him .

Ircours , and we have every right to uke it No more second thoughts .

Lets take it and got In a few days , well likely see the Dunn Group collapse under its own weight .

Even if Carson stepped in with 10 billion to help their stabilize , thats not going to solve the underlying problem As I said before , breaking into Southvale without at least a trillion theres no way theyll make it work Barney sighed deeply .

Mr.

Kline , Ill follow your lead Each shareholder counted their buyout cash , and by the time they finished , it was already four or five in the morning The Dunn Group shareholders meeting had finally come to an end .

Meanwhile , Harmonfields media and social networks were buzzing with talk about the nights dramatic events at the Dunn Groups shareholders meeting The hottest topic ? The collective withdrawal of major shareholders from the Dunn Group .

In a desperate bid to stabilize the situation , the Dunns had scrambled to pull together vast sums of cash to buy back shares .

This move shocked many observers , putting to rest rumors that the Dunn Group was on the verge of financial collapse due to the Southvale investment .

Yet , some people believed this was all just an elaborate show that the Dunns were staging a spectacle to convince everyone they still had strength .

However , most thought the Dunn Groups 100 billion dollar gamble on Southvale was nothing short of suicidal No one believed the city government would ever refocus its investment priorities on the Southvale district .

More so called authoritative sources even stepped forward to confirm that the city government had no plans to invest in the Southvale district .

They presented various pieces of evidence to back up their claims .

Soon , rumors of the Dunn Groups imminent collapse spread like wildfire throughout Harmonfield .

Partners from all sectors began calling the Dunn Group overnight , demanding to know what was going on .

They wanted a clear explanation , warning that if they didnt get one , they might consider suspending their partnerships with the Dunn Group .

The next morning .

Mitchell slept in until past nine , only to be woken by his phone ringing incessantly .

Mr.

Kline , do you really think the city governments spokesperson would just say something like that for no reason ? Mitchell felt a surge of panic as he listened to Barney If this was true , then the Dunn Groups value was about to skyrocket .

He immediately turned on the TV .
