Chapter 833 Time To Snatch Someone
Upon seeing him, the man immediately straightened his body.
After hesitating for a moment, he didn't even greet Thalia and turned around to walk out.
Fortunately, Thalia was quick-witted and fast. When she saw that he was about to leave, she immediately stepped in front of him, blocking his way. "Where are you going?" Thalia asked with a playful smile. The man looked at Thalia, stammering, "I-I need to go to the restroom!"
"Isn't there one in the ward?" Thalia gestured to him and asked.
"I... I'm not used to it. It'll be better for me to use it outside!" The man wanted to leave.
However, Thalia stood right in front of him, showing no intention of stepping aside.
The person looked on, almost dying of anxiety.
"Could I just not earn the money? I'll give them all to you later!" the man said.
Thalia remained calm and composed. "That won't do. I've told you, you have to finish this task!"
"I-I..."
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared at the door of the ward.
Magus stood at the entrance. Upon seeing them inside, his eyebrows immediately furrowed. "Why are you guys doing here?"
Upon hearing the sound, Anthony walked toward the door and looked at Magus. A well-intentioned smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he replied, "Didn't I tell you before? I won't give up!" Magus's eyes narrowed slightly as he turned his gaze directly at the man, his anger shifting toward him.
The person's expression changed inexplicably, unsure of what to say.
"Come outside with me. I have something to talk to you," Magus said as he looked straight at the person. After that, he turned around and walked off to one side.
At that moment, Thalia glanced at Anthony, who nodded back at him. Taking the hint, Thalia stepped aside from the man's path and said with a smile, "Please go ahead!" The man was speechless.
He glanced at Anthony, and then back at Thalia. A hint of helplessness flashed across his eyes. After that, he had no choice but to follow Magus out.
They had just left when Anthony walked over and said, "Come on, don't you want to see this for yourself? You'll replace out soon enough!" With that, Anthony immediately took the lead and followed both of them out as well.
Thalia narrowed her eyes and stood up before following Anthony out.
Meanwhile, at a corner in the hospital, Magus struck the man's face with a powerful punch. The man, who was frail and thin, couldn't withstand the blow and immediately fell to the ground.
Just as Magus was about to step forward, the man immediately spoke up. "Let me explain!"
"Explain what?" Magus asked.
"I-I had no choice either. It was them! They found out about this place and forced me to bring them here..." the man explained. Upon hearing this, Magus's lips curled into a cold smirk. "Did they force you to come, or did they bribe you with money?"
That person suddenly didn't know what to say.
Magus stared at him intently. "I told you not to overstep the limit of my patience, and this time you really crossed the line here!"
The man looked up and quickly explained, "I admit that they did pay me money, but they really forced me to do it. Also, they guessed that we were working together to scam money. That kid may be young, but he's clever. And that woman, she seems just ordinary..."
Magus didn't even listen to his explanation. "What? Could they kill you if you hadn't let them come here?"
"That woman really pointed a knife at me!"
Magus stared at him for a long time before saying in a cold voice, "The woman was someone I used to know. She's not the type to kill innocent people. Do you really think I'd believe you just because you said SO?"
"Do you trust her more than me?" the man asked angrily.
"Are you even worth my trust?" Magus asked coldly.
"What do you mean?" The person countered back quite confidently.
However, a cold smirk appeared at the corner of Magus's mouth. "All these years, how much money have you taken behind my back? Did you really think I had no idea? I used to turn a blind eye, but today..." Magus didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was already quite clear.
The person looked at Magus, suddenly not knowing what to say.
He thought he had done everything flawlessly, but he didn't expect that Magus knew everything.
As he was thinking of what words to say to comfort him, Magus suddenly grabbed his collar and snarled, "Starting today, we're parting ways. If I ever replace out that you've brought someone to harass her again, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Upon hearing his words, the man's eyes widened in disbelief. "Magus, are you really burning bridges with me?"
Magus looked at him, the corner of his mouth lifting into a cold smirk, "Me burning bridges with you? Haven't you made quite a fortune over these years then?"
"I..."
"It was you who crossed my bottom line first, so the responsibility lies with you!"
The man thought for a moment. Since the conversation had already reached this point, he wasn't afraid of causing a rift anymore. The man then spoke up directly. "Yes, I've made quite a bit of money over the years, but that's because I've been working hard by going around and putting in the effort. Do you know how difficult it is to make a living in front of those people? One wrong move and your life could be over. I deserve what I've earned, so don't think I've taken advantage of you. Besides, I don't mind if we dissolve our partnership, but you have a woman to take care of. You know better than me how much money she needs. If you're not afraid of her..." The man wanted to say something else, but upon meeting the deep gaze of the other person, he was frightened until he swallowed back his words. He then forced himself to change the subject. "Anyway, it doesn't matter to me!"
Magus's gaze bore into him fiercely, making it clear that if he dared to utter those words, there would be no courtesy shown. Fortunately, the man still had some brains.
Magus looked at him intently. "Don't worry about the money, I'll figure something out!" With that, he stood up and left.
Despite the fact that the man had already revealed Magus' last trump card, he still persisted. Watching his retreating figure, the man immediately said, “What? Are you going to replace someone else to partner with? Let me tell you, if I am your partner today, then it will be someone else tomorrow. So, are you still planning to keep changing partners?"
Magus's footsteps halted. He turned around, his gaze fixed directly on him.
At that moment, there were two people watching the scene not far away from them. Anthony's lips curled into a faint smile. He looked up at Thalia and asked, "What do you think? You saw it with your own eyes, didn't you?"
Thalia looked straight at Magus. "I am truly seeing him in a different light now!"
"You're not supposed to use that term like that!" Anthony said.
Thalia lowered her eyes, feeling quite displeased as she retorted, "I'll use it however I want!"
Upon seeing the situation, Anthony raised an eyebrow and said, "All right, fine. Whatever you say goes!"
Thalia glared in Magus's direction, fuming with anger.
"Let's go." Anthony spoke up.
"Where to?"
"We're going to snatch someone away, of course!" Anthony replied.
Upon hearing his reply, Thalia looked at him and asked, "Are you still interested in having him even though he is already becoming like this?"
"He has his own reasons for doing so. And as said, this is not a standard to judge whether someone is good or bad. Therefore, I still choose to believe in him!"
Thalia furrowed her brow.
"Let's go!" Thalia then said with a smile, and headed straight toward them.
As both men were talking, Anthony walked over and said, "If it's about money, don't worry, I can cover everything!"
As soon as Anthony finished speaking, both of their gazes turned towards him.
