The Invincible Mercenary King

Chapter 9

“I have to give you half my monthly salary? What do you mean?” Haylan asked, frowning.

Quentin glanced at William and asked with disgruntlement, “Didn’t you tell him?”

William’s expression changed. He hastened to bow and said with a flattering smile, “Boss, don’t be mad. I will tell him right now.”

After saying that, he hurriedly dragged Haylan aside and said in a stern voice, “Haylan, listen carefully. Quentin is the head of the security department and also a relative of Miss Labenz, the CEO of the company. He is also a retired Special Forces soldier. It is lenient of him to let you join the

company.

“It is the rule here to give him half your monthly salary. It applies to everyone here, including me. Whoever refuses it will be put into trouble.

“Look on the bright side and pay him a fund. Then, we can all go to work, free from worry.”

Haylan slightly knitted his brows.

According to William, Haylan was actually asked to pay protection fees!

It had been eight years, but this kind of corrupt business practice still existed.

“Haylan, you only need to pay this for one year. Do not mess around. This is the opportunity your dad gets for you by begging.” William said in a low voice.

Thinking of the image of his father begging others with a humble bow, Haylan felt severe pain in his chest and nodded. “OK.”

Upon hearing that, William was overjoyed and said to Quentin, “Boss, the problem is solved.”

Quentin cracked a smile, walked over, and held Haylan’s hand, saying, “Welcome to be one of us.”

Haylan’s hand was held, and he instantly knitted his brows.

Quentin held Haylan’s hand hard. If Haylan were an ordinary person, his palm would be crushed.

Clearly, Quentin was having a go at Haylan!

“Haha, this new guy is going to suffer.”

“Boss always deals a head-on blow to a new guy at the first encounter. I suppose Haylan will beg for mercy in pain the next second.”

“Back then, when I just joined the company, my hand was held by Boss so hard that it was about to break. Haylan looks so weak. He will definitely suffer a lot.”

Faced with the scene, many security guards on the spot all laughed gloatingly as if they were witnessing Haylan being taught a lesson miserably.

Haylan’s eyes became cold, and he wanted to fight back.

As a Mercenary King, he had never been treated lightly that way.

However, at the thought of what his father had done for him, Haylan had to put up with it and shook hands with Quentin quietly.

“Hmm?” Quentin’s eyes darkened.

As usual, Quentin would shake hands with a new guy with lots of force to make the latter feel pain. and fear. However, at that moment, this did not work for Haylan.
