Chapter 759: Humiliating David Again
The following morning, David Langston woke up with a burning sense of rage gnawing at him. The image of Wang Jian with Bella still lingered in his mind, every moment of that encounter playing over and over, tormenting him. His pride was shattered, but more than that, the idea of losing Bella to another man-it was unforgivable.
David wasn't someone who would sit back and take a hit like that. He had resources, connections, and power, and it was time to use them. He wasted no time and immediately called a meeting with the intelligence division of Langston Industries. This division was one of the most secretive branches of the company, tasked with gathering information about their competitors, enemies, and anyone who posed a threat.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
As the head of the intelligence division entered David's office, the tension in the air was palpable. David slammed down a set of photographs on the table-images of Wang Jian from their last encounter.
"I want you to find everything you can about this man," David growled, his voice filled with barely controlled fury. "I don't care how deep you have to dig or what strings you have to pull. I need information, and I need it now."
The head of the intelligence division nodded, taking the photos and quickly dispatching orders to his team. Langston Industries' intelligence network was spread across the United States. They had informants in various sectors-corporate, political, even criminal elements. If anyone could uncover Wang Jian's secrets, it was them.
Over the next few days, the intelligence group worked tirelessly, deploying their resources and connections all over the country. Their agents scoured through databases, conducted interviews with informants, and tracked down any leads they could find. Yet, no matter how much they dug, Wang Jian seemed to be a ghost. There were traces of him in California, but no solid records or detailed information about his background. It was as if he had just appeared out of thin air.
What the intelligence group didn't know was that this lack of information was not an accident. Charlotte and Sarah, having made their alliances with key figures in the Republic Party, had ensured that Wang Jian's identity and background were well-protected. The Republic Party, eager for Charlotte and Sarah's financial backing, had done everything in their power to keep Wang Jian off the radar. They controlled public records, legal documents, and even the media to make sure that Langston Industries would hit a dead end.
Frustrated, the head of the intelligence division reported back to David, delivering the bad news. "We can't find anything significant on him, sir. It's like he's invisible. Without higher- level connections, we can't go deeper."
David's eyes flared with anger. "Are you telling me that with all the resources I've given you, you still can't dig up anything useful?"
The intelligence head shifted nervously. "Not without the help of higher-ups from the Democratic Party, sir. But given the current state of things, and with the public sentiment against us, it's hard to get anyone from the upper echelon of the party to assist."
David clenched his fists, his mind racing. He knew that with Langston Industries facing public backlash, the Democratic Party wouldn't risk their reputation by associating with him right now. He was on his own.
"Fine," David snapped. "Then keep your eyes on California. I want to know the second this bastard shows up anywhere in the state. We still have our contacts, our assets, and plenty of friends who owe us favors. I don't care what it takes-find him."
Finally, it was just David left, standing alone in the center of the bar, his face pale with fear.
He had watched as Wang Jian single-handedly destroyed his men, and now there was nothing left to protect him.
Wang Jian approached David slowly, his eyes locked on him like a predator closing in on its prey. David backed away, his hands shaking, but there was nowhere to run.
Wang Jian grabbed David by the collar, lifting him off the ground with ease. David's eyes widened in terror as he struggled to break free, but Wang Jian's grip was unrelenting.
"You're pathetic," Wang Jian said, his voice cold and merciless. "You think you can kill me? You're nothing."
With a swift punch to the gut, Wang Jian sent David crashing to the ground. David gasped for air, clutching his stomach in pain, but Wang Jian wasn't done yet. He grabbed David again, this time slamming him against the wall, his face inches from David's.
"I could kill you right now," Wang Jian whispered, his voice low and threatening. "But where's the fun in that? No, I want you to live. I want you to watch as I take everything from you. Your company, your reputation, your fiancée. You'll lose it all, and there won't be a damn
thing you can do about it."
David's face twisted with pain and humiliation, but there was no fight left in him. Wang Jian released him, letting him fall to the ground in a heap.
Bella stepped out from her hiding spot, her eyes still wide with amazement. She looked at Wang Jian with a mixture of admiration and desire, her body practically trembling with excitement. As she approached him, she couldn't help but smile.
"You're incredible," she whispered, her voice breathless.
Wang Jian turned to her, his expression softening. "I told you, didn't I? I always win."
Bella smiled, her body pressing against his as she wrapped her arms around him. "And I'm glad to be on the winning side."
