Almighty Father System-Chapter 66 : Tick-tock.

Leo watched the video and Jock shivered on the side. In the video, Vincent was talking to Carole Primal and they were happy that the plan was executed so cleanly and following how the couple ended up in the hospital.

However, suddenly, Vincent said, "Growing up I used to hear stories about how tenacious Chistopher was as a child. Looks like they did have some truth to it."

Carole chuckled and said, "Cockroaches are often tenacious. What is so great about that?"

Then they found out about Leo looking for Vincent to help his parents. Only Vincent had the money that was needed to operate on his parents. His own savings could not be mobilized at that time, however, Vincent just played helplessly saying he gave up all the money to Christopher to buy the stocks in the company.

Leo was made to kneel before Carole to gain some money but by the time he could even meet Carole, his parents had left the world. The young man didn't even have the money to arrange for a funeral, and sold his mother's jewelry, the things that she wore during the accident.

The rage caused Leo's eyes to turn red, Jock said, "Sir, we are here."

Leo tore his gaze away from the mobile screen and then found himself at the familiar abandoned factory. Jock said, "After the last time, master Mark got this place."

Leo nodded as he got out of the car and walked inside the facility. Unlike the last time, the facility was clean and it had better illumination.

In the same exact spot where Echo was tied, three men were tied to chairs, they were also stripped naked and five men were watching over them.

Leo raised his brow and asked, "Jock, who are these people?"

Jock replied, "Sir, they are the backup division. They were sent over by the Taskmaster, they are old soldiers of the Clover nation so they are not under as much scrutiny as we are."

Leo nodded and asked, "Did they squeak?"

Jock looked at the person who was handling the issue here, and said, "Game."

Game was a strong built man, he stepped forward and said, "Captain, they aren't professionals, just some goons. I got the basic details here. The enemy can be easily handled."

Leo shook his head and said, "Game, I don't doubt your skills or your means, but I have always learned that a dragon has to be wary of a local snake. Tell me about them first."

Game nodded, and then he said, "Sir, the South Street Gang is run by a young man, Simon Silence, everyone calls him Young Master, and he is a very cunning young man. Ever since the gang was formed, he had never been booked by the cops. All the operations are commanded by him, and he disciplines his people well. His father used to be a magistrate, and his mother is critically ill.

The young man actually had some beef with the old thug of the southern slums, and after beating him in a fair fight, Simon Silence was acknowledged by many. Over the past two years, he managed to sit down with a few bosses and then they all began to run errands for them.

After two years, they began to collect small protection money from the Southern shopping streets and they cleared the clutter of the place. They have quite a reputation for the fact that they are all goons. You can call it fear or respect, but the people don't say many bad things about them. They are not financially very strong, and Simon Silence is the only one among them who ever saw the college."

Leo nodded and said, "Arrange a meeting with this Simon Silence, if he comes peacefully, fine, if he doesn't bring him to me. Okay?"

Jock gestured to Game, who replied, "Alright, Sir. I will get it done."

That said, Leo looked at the three men and said, "Cover them up, the weather is getting colder, and feed them properly."

Game nodded and Leo left with Jock. They didn't know what Leo was thinking about, but they agreed to him as long as he didn't put himself in danger.

…

The car then moved around the city and came to the western finance district where the Monarch Tower was located. (Correct me if the direction is messed up.)

Leo went inside the office, and he noticed the guards standing alert. The atmosphere was calm, and it lacked the previous harmony, ever since the demolition took place.

Such things can't be pushed, and it would take some time for them to resume the flow here. The young man took a deep breath and after a few minutes, he appeared in the lobby before Percie Hibiscal's office and sat down on the couch.

The secretary noticed him and immediately informed the lady. Percie came over quickly and asked, "President, why are you sitting here? My chair is your chair. Please sit inside."

Leo was surprised by this sudden warmth, and he nodded before following her inside the office, he thought, 'System, what is her loyalty status?'

'Ping: Host, Percie Hibiscal is 82% loyal towards you.'

Leo thought about it and asked, "How is the acquisition process going?"

Percie replied, "By lunch hour, you will have almost 90% equity in the Cardinal Group. The rest is reserved for the high level employees according to the company by laws."

Leo nodded as he was aware of it, and said, "Who is your best cleaner, and repair staff?"

Percie Hibiscal was surprised and asked, "President, you want me to place my people in the higher positions?"

Leo nodded and said, "I believe in the skill you have shown, and I know that while you still have some ideas, as long as I am bringing in profit, you won't rebel. So, it is not a problem to have your people manage my property."

Percie Hibiscal nodded, she had been told that while she was a good general, Leo was still the King. He had been silent about everything she had been doing this whole time, however, he wasn't ignorant.

Leo took out his phone and said, "I will be using your computer station, also can you have them create an office for me on the R&D floor? I want to try and make my own products."

Percie was surprised and said, "You can have an office here."

Leo shook his head and replied calmly, "Too inefficient in information exchange."

Percie sighed and nodded, while Leo plugged the mobile to the computer, and then sent a folder to Eldin Stein, before he picked up his mobile and called the person.

He said, "Miss Stein, I want you to fan the flames. Okay?"

The lady understood what was going on and agreed to get results. One copy of the evidence was sent to the relevant authorities as well. It was time for a huge explosion in Angkor City.
