His assistant offered a reassuring smile before saying, “Don’t stress too much, Mr. Kobayashi. I doubt anyone in Aurous Hill can react that quickly. We should reach the airport in about half an hour. Once there, you’ll breeze through security thanks to the VIP passage. We’ll be airborne within an hour. At that point, not even God can stop us!”
With that, Ichiro’s Maybach sped away from Serene World Clinic, making a beeline for the expressway and the airport. Their goal was to arrive as swiftly as possible to catch their flight back to Tokyo.
As they drove, Ichiro’s excitement surged. He couldn’t tear his eyes away from the four magical pills resting before him. “With this magical pill, the Kobayashi family will rise to power globally! I’m definitely going to be the chairman of Kobayashi Pharma,” he murmured to himself.
The Maybach zoomed along, reaching Aurous Airport in record time.
Upon arriving, Ichiro sprang out of the car, eager to rush into the airport.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
However, the moment he stepped out, eight off-road Mercedes-Benz vehicles rolled up and surrounded his Maybach.
Out of these vehicles emerged thirty bodyguards d in ck, all seasoned fighters personally trained by Isaac, showcasing exceptional strength and skills.
Isaac exited one of the off-road vehicles, gazing coldly at Ichiro. “Mr. Kobayashi, our young lord would like to have a word with you!” he dered.
“Your young lord?” Ichiro stammered, his heart racing as he concealed the magical pills in his pocket. “Who is your young lord? Do you know who I am? I’m the vice chairman of Kobayashi Pharma!”
Isaac casually patted Ichiro’s face and replied indifferently, “Kobayashi Pharma may be a Japanesepany, but we’re in Aurous Hill. Why act so important? Japan is far away, separated by oceans. What’s the point in telling me who you are?”
Ichiro felt a wave of anxiety wash over him.
He was puzzled as to why these individuals were blocking his path. Was it due to the magical pills, or was there another reason?
If it was indeed about the pills, he could be in grave danger. The strength and capability of this group were evident; escaping them would be near impossible.
Yet, if their motives were unrted, did that mean he could still send the medicine back to Japan safely?
Trying to maintain hisposure, Ichiro asked, “Who is your young lord?”
Isaac responded coolly, “Mr. Kobayashi, your family has giarized numerous ancient Chinese prescriptions, so I assume you’re familiar with our country’s history. Have you heard of the Wade family from Eastcliff?”
“The Wade family?” Ichiro’s shock was palpable.
How could he not know of them? The Wade family was the most formidable family in the nation, their influence ranking among the highest in the world. Even major conglomerates in Japan paled inparison to them, let alone a small pharmaceuticalpany like his.
Panic set in, and Ichiro blurted, “What does your young lord want with me?”
Isaac replied, “If you want to know, you’ll find out once youe with me.”
Ichiro pressed, “And what if I refuse to go with you?”
Isaac smirked slightly, pulling out a pistol from his pocket. “Since our young lord has instructed me to bring you, if I fail to deliver you alive, I’ll ensure I bring your lifeless body instead!”
Ichiro’s concern deepened, but he was even more anxious about whether he could send the magical pills to Tokyo first.
This was crucial for solidifying his family’s foundation!
As these thoughts raced through his mind, he cautiously suggested, “Could I go with you on my own while my assistant returns to Japan? He has important matters to attend to.”<fn2d5a> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? find[?]ovel</fn2d5a>
Isaac chuckled before responding, “Of course, everyone is free to leave except for you.”
With a sigh of relief, Ichiro discreetly handed the small wooden box containing the pills to his assistant. He then patted his shoulder gently and said, “You should catch the flight back to Tokyo first. Let my father know I’m alright and that I’ll see him soon!”
