I Want a Divorce by Abigail Quinn

Chapter 41

Wayne was a silent and dull person.

Yet, Oliver knew this kind of person best. He was also that kind of person, faithful and loyal.

It was also because of this personality that such people had few friends and always suffered losses in

society. Without a person with a good eye, this kind of person would basically live a poor and miserable

life.

When Wayne was young, he spent all his family’s money to learn combat arts. His father died early,

and his mother fell sick a lot. After leaving the army, he was still penniless after over thirty years of age.

It made him impossible to get a wife. Several years after leaving the army, Wayne had been tormented

by his mother’s illness.

This was the so-called “even a superhero needed money to survive”.

Fabian told Wayne that Oliver needed someone who had good combat skills, and Oliver could pay a

high price as a reward. Wayne agreed for his mother’s sake.

When Wayne saw Oliver, he was worried about whether he could entrust the rest of his life to such a

young man.

However, Oliver did not have the arrogance and behavior of a rich kid as he had imagined. The young

man was very polite, calm, generous, and even not arrogant. Gradually, Wayne felt relieved.

Other than not knowing Wayne’s combat skills, Oliver was very satisfied with his character and

performance. Thinking about it, he believed that Fabian would definitely not trick him.

“Wayne…” Oliver was eight years younger than Wayne. Yet, as a boss, it was difficult for him to decide

the name addressing for Wayne. He thought it was disrespectful to address him by his first name. He

was thinking of calling Wayne “Mr. Ziegler”, but since it was still unsuitable if outsiders were present,

Oliver simply called him “Wayne”.

Oliver continued, “Your monthly salary would temporarily be 20,000 dollars a month for the time being,

and you will be paid a bonus quarterly, mid-year, and at the end of the year. Your current job is to

ensure my safety.”

That was basically the annual income with a base rate of over 200 thousand dollars, and the monthly

salary alone would be 240 thousand dollars per year. As for the amount of the bonus, it would be an

imaginary number.

However, Fabian knew clearly that with Oliver’s generosity and ability to earn money, Wayne’s bonus

would definitely be much higher than 240 thousand dollars of his annual salary.

He still did not know Oliver’s other ability to make money, but it was already terrifying just from using

his skill of recognizing raw emerald rough.

On the assumption that they only went to Manchernius once a month, Oliver could earn millions of

dollars at will. Their current salary and benefits provided by Oliver were high, but it was nothing

compared with the speed and amount of Oliver’s earned money.

“Wayne, hurry up and thank Mr. Eastwood!” Seeing that Wayne was still acting dull and did not

understand the meaning of “bonus”, Fabian hurriedly urged him to thank Oliver.

Oliver waved his hand and said, “Fabian, you and Wayne have followed me, and we will be a family in

the future. No need for courtesy with one’s own people, so I will never treat both of you badly. In the

future, our lives will become better!”

Fabian was moved and excited. He said to Oliver, “Mr. Eastwood, I’ve entrusted myself to you anyway,

so I will follow you all the way whether you are poor or rich.”

Oliver nodded without needing to say further.

At that moment, a noise came from the stairway. The three looked over and saw more than ten people

coming upstairs with fierce and vicious appearances. The person walking in the forefront was Julian.

Upon seeing Julian, Oliver knew that the incident in Manchernius had something to do with him.

Sure enough, Julian and his gang approached. He glanced at Oliver with sinister in his eyes and said

with a fake smile, “You! Consider yourself lucky to have dumb luck with you! I couldn’t do anything to

you in Manchernius, and you tried to escape? Let’s see where else you can run away to!”

Oliver thought, “It’s really his doings!”

Oliver suppressed the anger in his mind and said lightly, “I don’t know why you are targeting me. I have

no grudge against you or offended you…”

Julian interrupted him immediately, “Don’t talk nonsense. You are not qualified to offend me. I had told

you before not to get close to Hailey. Are you out of your mind?”

Oliver replied coldly, “Hailey is my boss, and I have to do what the boss asked me to do. Besides, it’s

not my decision that she went to Manchernius. Do you think I can stop her from going? Besides, she is

my boss, and I am her employee. Does this even offend you?”

Julian’s gaze turned more sinister, “I know there is nothing between her and you. If there is, you would

have disappeared

sooner. I just came here to warn you that you can’t even be her employee. Quit the job by yourself, or I

will kill you!”

Oliver turned speechless and thought, “This man is fucking unreasonable!”

Julian waved his hand to his subordinates. “Go beat him up. Oliver, I will feel embarrassed not to teach

you a lesson today.”

At his command, a dozen burly men who followed him pounced over fiercely.

Fabian pulled Oliver vigorously and was ready to pin him on the ground and shield the latter with his

body.

He thought, “There are so many people on the other side. I guess we will be beaten thoroughly.”

Yet, no one expected that Wayne, who had been quiet all the time, suddenly moved at that moment.

Fighting sounds could be heard, and before everyone could see what was going on, Julian’s men had

already fallen to the ground, moaning in

agony.

Julian did not see it clearly. After composing his mind, he saw that Oliver before him was still there

without harm, and the people who fell on the ground were all his men.

Julian turned around and found that none of the subordinates he had brought were still standing.

Instead, all of them fell to the ground and howled in pain.

Oliver and Fabian were also a little stunned.

Only Wayne stared at Julian coldly, and his gaze looked like a sharp knife.

Fabian knew that Wayne was good at combat arts but had not seen the latter hit anyone before. He

knew little about the

past.

Julian was scared in an instant. He took a few steps back and took out his phone to make a call,

pointing at Oliver and saying fiercely at the same time, “You… This isn’t over. I’ll ask someone to beat

you up again!”

However, Wayne leaped forward and grabbed Julian’s neck. He snatched the latter’s phone swiftly,

crushing the phone with a snapping sound.

Wayne turned back and said to Oliver, “Mr. Eastwood, I will entrust my mother to you. I will exchange

for my life to kill

him!”

As soon as Wayne said that, his hand grabbing Julian’s neck tightened. Julian could not breathe in an

instant. His face turned purple, and he could not move all over his body, but he knew very well that he

was utterly terrified.

There was a saying that a beggar could never be bankrupt. Julian thought, “I’m extremely wealthy. If

this guy exchanged his/ life for mine, it would definitely be a loss for me. But I couldn’t even beg for

mercy because my neck was being gripped!”

“Wait!” Oliver was also shocked and hurriedly stopped Wayne, “Let him go.”

Wayne threw Julian to the floor and stared at him coldly with a knife-like sharp gaze. If Oliver said

another word, he would immediately step forward to kill Julian.

Julian was so scared that his pants got wet. He thought, “This guy is definitely a brutal man who dares

to kill me. I can tell from his gaze and aura that his hands have been stained with blood and hurt people

before.”

Oliver took two steps forward and looked down at Marshall on the floor. He said, “Julian, don’t go too

far. I won’t offend you if you don’t do so. If you really push me to the limit, it’s not difficult for me to ask

for your life. No matter how rich you are, it would be useless if you are not alive to enjoy it!”
