Terence continued blabbering on about the incident. However, he did not notice the darkening expression on Zayden’s face.

“You piece of garbage!”

Zayden roared out in rage, cutting off Terence’s speech.

“F*ck, this is just perfect. You’ve left a memorable impression on him indeed, but you won’t be of any use to me anymore!”

Zayden grew angrier the more he spoke. He raised a hand and slapped Terence across his ashen face.

A loud smack resounded through the room.

Terence’s head whipped to the side from the force of the slap. Instantly, he clutched his face and got up from the sofa in fear. “Mr. Hanks, I’m sorry. I messed things up because I didn’t know about your plans,” he said in a hurry.
