Chapter 104: Depressed Christine
Bam!
The person who was attacked by Jaden immediately fell onto the ground while holding his chest. The strength that Jaden had used to attack this time was not something that this guy could handle, and after a few moments, he immediately passed out.
Jaden did not care about the guy who had collapse onto the ground, and immediately went ahead to attack the rest of the group of gangsters.
A kick was thrown towards one of them, and the guy was hit in the chest again. The guy stumbled the backwards, before knocking on to another gangster that was rushing forward without looking at what was coming in front of him.
An elbow to the neck knocked out another person, while a knee in the stomach put another one out of commission. It could be said that each and every attack that Jaden launched was decisive.
And more than that, every person that was attacked, once an attack landed on them, they would not be able to get back on their feet again. It was a one touch one down thing.
The group of gangsters was immediately terrified at the display of strength from Jaden. Nevertheless, they could not back down. Despite knowing that they were not capable of dealing with Jaden, they still rushed towards him like a moth rushing towards the flames.
Scarlet on the other hand was immediately relieved after Jaden took action. Realizing that the majority of the gangsters had shifted their attention towards Jaden, she immediately used that chance.
She attacked the few gangsters that were blocking her path, and immediately managed to get to the entrance of the building.
The commotion outside had already attracted the attention of the people inside the building. And so, the group of workers that belonged to the cosmetic company came out to see what was going on.
Previously, they had been staying inside, in fear that they might be attacked by the gangsters. Of course, they had already called the police, informing them that there was a group of gangsters that was causing trouble for them.
But the moment that the police came over, this group of gangsters would immediately scatter. But of course, they did not go far away from here, and maintained just a small distance away from the building.
Without any form of evidence of any action from the gangsters that was disrupting the business, the police could not do anything to them. Additionally, the police were not security guards that would just decide to stay there, and wait to see if the gangsters would take action.
So, after a few rounds, the police had already gotten tired. Those that were in charge of patrolling this part of the city simply ignored the calls that they were receiving. After all, each and every time that they came over, they did not have anything to do other than to look at a group of people loitering around.
And now, this group of people, upon noticing that the gangsters were actually fighting two people, they could not help but be surprised. After all, most of the time, when people came over, they were immediately intimidated by this group of gangsters.
So far, this was the first time that they were seeing a fight happening. Of course, that did not imply that there was not even a single person who had tried to resist this group of gangsters.
There was this arrogant young man who came over with his girlfriend. The guy had been trying to show off in front of his girlfriend, and did not retreat when the gangsters asked him to do that.
And more than that, he even wanted to fight them. But in the end, the guy was beaten up to an unrecognizable state. After that, the guy fled with his tail between his legs, leaving even his girlfriend behind.
"What could be happening here? Could it be that some experts have come over to deal with this group of gangsters?"
"Maybe it is just two customers who came over. They wanted to get something from our company, but they were not allowed over. So in the end, they decided to fight their way in."
"Do you guys think that perhaps the boss asked them to come over? After all, we are not the only cosmetic company in the city. If they are blocked here, they can just go to another company after all."
"That makes sense. But in any case, let's just watch the show. And by the way, have you noticed that one of them is a girl?"
"Had you not mentioned that, I would have definitely done so. That girl is quite fierce, I say. Just looking at her, I feel chills running down my spine."
"Hey Sammy, you claimed that you are the best pickup artist. Do you think that you can manage to get that one?"
"Eh… Forget about that. She is not beautiful at all."
"What do you mean that she is not beautiful? She is clearly beautiful than even the most beautiful lady in our company."
"I… I mean that I don't like that chaotic behavior. She likes fighting, and that is not my type of a girl."
"What do you mean that she is not your type of girl? Think about it. If you can manage to hook up with her, don't you think that she can protect you in case somebody attacks you?"
"Well… I… I am a man. I don't want to be protected by a lady. People will laugh at me."
"You continue caring much about the image, when you will continue being beaten up each and every time that you try to hook up with a girl. Haha!"
Scarlet did not care about what the group was talking about. Instead, after she had managed to break through the group of gangsters, she immediately approached them. She looked at them, they were also sizing her up.
"Where is Christine?" Scarlet asked as she looked at the group in front of her. From the attire that they were wearing, she could immediately tell that they were part of the employees of the company.
The name tags was a clear indication, considering that the name tag possessed the name and the logo of the company.
The group was slightly surprised upon hearing Scarlet's question. Then immediately, they thought that perhaps Scarlet had been called over by their boss. After all, she came here and immediately asked to see Christine.
"The boss is currently in her office. She hasn't left since yesterday. She is quite depressed about the current situation of the company, and is not willing to talk to anybody." A young lady took a step forward and responded.
Scarlet frowned. Then without caring about anything else, she immediately rushed into the building. She already knew where Christine's office was located. So, she did not need anybody to direct her, and immediately headed there.
As for the group of employees, they could only watch her leave, before shifting their attention back to the battlefield. Even though there was only a single person who was dealing with over 20 people, still, it did not seem like he was at a disadvantage at all.
They could not help but be curious about who this young man was. After all, it was not that easy to be able to find an expert who was so good at fighting. Just by looking at the way that he was handling the group of gangsters, it was so effortless.
It was as if they were watching a veteran adult boxer dealing with a bunch of kids. Of course, it was easy for him to be able to deal with many of them at the same time, and not break a sweat.
Scarlet on the other hand panted as she arrived in front of the office door that belonged to Christine. Without hesitation, she pushed the door open, and entered into the office.
The office itself was not that big. Despite that, it was quite well furnished. Everything that was used to decorate the office was of a high quality, though not the best quality.
At this moment, there was a lady that was sitting behind the only desk in the room. The expression on her face was one of despair. Other than that, Scarlet could immediately notice the huge eye bags below her eyes.
Together with the red eyes that were currently looking back at her, but not seeming to see her at all, were a clear indication that she had not slept for quite a long time.
"Hey Christine! Why are you looking like that?" Scarlet shouted after a few seconds of observing Christine. Despite being there for a few seconds, it seemed that Christine did not seem to notice her at all.
"Huh?" Christine was finally brought back to her senses by the shout. She looked up, and realized that Scarlet was in front of her. She immediately rubbed her eyes, as if she was trying to verify if her eyes were playing a trick on her.
It was only after a few seconds that she finally realized that it was actually Scarlet who was here. She was immediately thrilled.
"You are finally here. You have to help me Scarlet. They have gone too far this time. Not only are they preventing the customers from coming over, but they are also preventing the transport vehicles from transporting the cosmetics items." Christine got up from her seat and rushed towards Scarlet.
She held her hand as she asked with a hint of helplessness in her eyes. Other than that, Scarlet could also sport that she was angry. That was to be expected considering the current situation that the company was in.
"Don't worry about that group of gangsters. They should be taken care of in just a few more minutes." Scarlet responded confidently.
