Chapter 3 Chapter3

Upstairs was the office area of the night club. This guy looked very unusual. It was too bold to offend Angela and beat the director. Who knew what he wanted to do? If he disturbed the general manager who just came to inspect today, they would make a big mistake.

When Jimmy arrived at the third floor, he began to run towards the general manager's office.

If he couldn't take out the two hundred thousand dollars, he would definitely be slandered and even be sent to jail. The only thing that could prove that he was the victim was the surveillance video of the night club, but when the police investigated, the night club didn't provide any evidence, so he had to figure it out.

When a dozen security guards caught up to the general manager's office, the bold guy kicked open the door.

Laura was taking a rest with her eyes closed. Ordinary people would be frightened by such kind of thing, but she opened her eyes naturally and looked at the person who suddenly broke in.

The captain of security guards came in and threw a punch at Jimmy. "You're courting death!"

The security guards here were usually local gangsters and didn't follow any rules, especially when Jimmy offended the boss.

Jimmy easily avoided the attack of the captain of security guards and controlled him on the contrary.

It was too late to think about why the person in the general manager's office was not the manager, Martin, but a strange woman. He just shouted at the woman, "I want to see the manager, Martin."

At the same time, several other security guards also rushed up. Jimmy had no choice but to bring the captain of security guards to himself as a threat.

Laura had been observing the man since she opened her eyes. She knocked on the table.

The crisp sound made the security guards quiet down, and Jimmy also let go of her.

"I'm sorry, miss Laura. It's my fault. I'll take her away right now!"

The captain of security guards cast a cold glance at Jimmy and lowered his head.

Jimmy was confused. He knew that the security guard was a tough man in the night club. He didn't expect that he would be so respectful and afraid of a woman. It was absolutely impossible to hide that kind of thing from the bottom of his heart. Who was she?

She had a delicate and charming face with light make-up and hair neatly tied up. She wore a professional style, a short skirt and a white shirt, outlining her smooth abdomen and plump buttocks.

Jimmy had thought that she was a woman with good temperament and figure at a glance just now. Now when he looked at her carefully, he was even surprised.

He felt that she was about more than 30 years old, but there was no sign of age on her body.

Jimmy broke in on impulse just now, and now under the woman's calm gaze, he was rarely nervous. For the first time, he felt at a loss when facing a person.

"What do you want from the manager, Martin?"

She asked in a soft and straightforward voice.

Without looking at her, Jimmy began to tell her about the conflict between him and Angela in the night club.

------------

Laura heard what the man in front of her said and roughly figured out what had happened.

A strange light flashed in her eyes. She was always accurate in judging people. The young man's identity could be clearly expressed in front of her, which meant that he was unusual.

Laura had heard something about Angela.

He was the boss of a financial company, but generally speaking, this company was a group of usurers in a legal coat. The company had a group of people who were powerful in any place.

Laura had heard about the rumor that Angela made trouble in the night club before, but Laura didn't care much about such a character as her. Laura could bear it if she didn't do anything excessive. Now after listening to Jimmy's story, she thought that it was time to remind someone.

Laura didn't show any difference on her face. She smiled and said, "I don't know much about the surveillance video. You can tell the manager, Martin, when he comes."

Jimmy asked, "when will the manager Martin come?"

"He went to deal with something. He should be back soon!"

Martin had just gone to meet a few regular clients. When the security guard informed him of what had happened here, he trotted in.

He was more than 40 years old and always had a smiling face. He was good at pretending.

But at this time, the smile on his face had already disappeared. He stared at Jimmy with a heavy face. If his eyes could kill people, Jimmy must be riddled with holes now.

When Laura saw him, she stood up, stretched and yawned. The pride on her chest showed up with her stretched body, almost tearing her shirt apart.

"Manager Martin, this is for you!"

Martin lowered his head and said, "miss Laura, please rest assured. I will take care of it."

Jimmy had figured out the relationship between them. Martin, the general manager of L night club, was humble in front of this woman.

Laura, L night club, and with some rumors, Jimmy was almost sure of the identity of the woman.

There would be no second person to Laura except her.

A woman in charge of nearly 1/3 of the entertainment industry in the city, the only woman in the top ten of the rich list many times.

He knew that this was his only chance to change the situation.

When she was about to try again, Laura left her desk and walked towards the door, accompanied by the sound of her high heels knocking on the wood floor.

Jimmy stood still until Laura passed by him. He plucked up his courage and stopped Laura, "miss Laura, please give me the surveillance video!"

He had met Martin for several times and knew that if he really wanted to help him, he should have handed over the video when the police came to collect evidence. Now if he let Laura leave like this, it was very unlikely to get the video from Martin.

"Are you fucking courting death? How dare you!"

Jimmy stopped Laura.

He was on the verge of death. Without the video, he had to pay two hundred thousand to others. For the huge sum of money, Jimmy was willing to fight for the former.

Laura smiled coldly and said, "get out of the way."

An invisible pressure made Jimmy feel difficult to breathe.

He took a deep breath and said, "miss Laura, don't push me. I really have no way out. If I can't get the video, I'll be in jail."

"It seems that your imprisonment has nothing to do with me!"

"It doesn't matter. When a person is on the verge of death, he or she will be desperate and can't get the video. Miss Laura can't get out of this room today!"

Laura seemed to have heard a joke. "So, what are you going to do?"

Jimmy locked the door.

Laura paused and smiled, "I'm really curious about how bold you are."

"Miss Laura, you can call the police!"

Jimmy took out his phone and handed it to Laura.

Martin was very scared. No one doubted that as long as the police called him, he really dared to do something.

Laura didn't answer the phone, but fixed her eyes on Jimmy.

Jimmy didn't give in and looked at her coldly.

After a long while, Laura clapped her hands and said, "it's not worth it. It's a big loss to gamble with someone like you. Martin, give the video to him later."

Her unexpected reaction made the tense atmosphere suddenly relax.

Jimmy loosened his fists without being noticed. His palms had already been wet with cold sweat. In fact, he was not sure if he would really lose his life after Laura called the police.

"Thank you, miss Laura!"

Laura waved her hand. Her slender fingers were almost transparent in the light.

Jimmy stepped aside and smelt the perfume. Laura walked to the door and looked back at Martin, as if joking, "Martin, you can't bully our employees with others anymore!"

Martin was smart enough to understand what Laura meant at once.

"And you, your name is Jimmy, right? Good job, continue to work here."

Jimmy didn't expect that she would say such words to him, so he nodded his head instinctively.

He had an intuition that Laura's attitude suddenly changed not because of his poor courage. Judging from the temperament of this woman, she did not seem to be easily threatened.

If she couldn't figure it out, she wouldn't think about it anymore. As long as she could get the video.

After Laura left, Martin unhappily took Jimmy to the monitoring room and copied the video of that day.

Outside the nightclub, Laura got on a red commercial vehicle at the door.

In the driver's seat sat a middle-aged man with rough skin and ordinary appearance.

Brewer, Laura's private bodyguard and driver.

After Laura took her seat, the Brewer started the car and said, "miss Laura seems to be in a good mood!"

His voice was hoarse and deep, and his conversation was very casual, as if he was talking to a friend.

"Well, I met an interesting guy. He is a little similar to you before. He is energetic."

Laura couldn't help laughing. The dim light in the car seemed to be suddenly lit up. The Brewer didn't dare to look at it, so he looked away and concentrated on driving.

He had been with Laura for five years. Every time he saw her smile, he couldn't help but lose control of himself.

------------

After getting the surveillance video, Jimmy first copied it and had a rest. What happened in the night club exhausted him.

The second day, Jimmy called Amanda.

Amanda was in charge of his relationship with Angela, so he had to contact her if there was anything. Of course, Jimmy didn't want to contact Angela either.

They rushed to the police station. Jimmy handed the surveillance video to Amanda.

Amanda played the video again. It clearly showed that Jimmy was chased out of the room and pulled back when she arrived at the stairway.

"You are good at fighting."

Amanda praised.

In the monitoring, Jimmy's reaction and many details were not something an ordinary person could do.

Standing behind her, Jimmy couldn't help but look at her white and slender neck. When he came to his senses, he asked, "can this video be used as evidence to prove that I am a victim?"

"Yes, we can judge the personal malice of Angela and others. But your later actions have exceeded the law, so I advise you to settle in private. If it goes on, it will do you no good."

"How about I arrange a meeting for you?" Amanda suggested after thinking for a while.

Jimmy shook his head and said, "no, thanks."

"Are you making trouble for the police?" Amanda smiled.

She had a good impression of Jimmy. He was a man of principle, not a weak man. Although he was a little stubborn, it was undeniable that he had such a quality. Ordinary people would only be at a loss when they met someone like Angela.

"Mr. Amanda, thank you for your help. I'll treat you to dinner next time!"

Jimmy said politely after he finished his work.

"When will it happen next time? This is one of the biggest lies in the world."

"How about tomorrow?" Jimmy replied generously.

Of course, Amanda was just joking. She waved her hand to signal Jimmy to leave.

……

After leaving the police station, he didn't go home to sleep, but went to a new place.

Jimmy was ready to be fired. But he didn't expect that Martin would ask him to work in another night club of the same company before he left.

The entertainment center of L group was very famous in the whole city.

Now his financial situation was very bad and he had to find a new job, so he followed Martin's arrangement. After all, he had nothing.

The house they lived was not far from the night club.

The old six floor apartment, which covered an area of less than forty square meters, came out of the night club and entered the apartment, as if it had suddenly entered a town from a prosperous city.

He walked into the stairs. The wall was full of scratches, and the cement on the surface of the stairs had fallen. He couldn't bear to look straight at it.

Jimmy couldn't help but think of something.

When they were dating, Lydia always asked him to carry her upstairs. The two of them talked and laughed, and the simple and shabby stairs left a lot of happy memories. Now there was only Jimmy left. Suddenly, he felt very lonely here. He hadn't seen Lydia for several days.

When Jimmy approached the house, he heard a noise.

"It's disgusting. How could you do such a thing?"

"Someone might have offended someone..."

The neighbors covered their noses and discussed.

Jimmy saw that the door of his room was filled with red liquid. Before he could get close, a pungent smell of blood came to him.

The surrounding walls were also sprinkled with a lot of blood red words, "go to hell!".

The corridor was already dark, which gave people a very horrible feeling. Many people were discussing, and the disgust on their faces was clearly shown.

Jimmy was short of breath and clenched his fists.

Angela, Jimmy had never offended anyone except her.

She must have known that he got the video to revenge.

The landlord was an old man about more than 60 years old. He said angrily, "Jimmy, what mistake have you made? You've brought it to me. Who will rent this house to in the future? Who dares to rent it?"

"Sir, I'm sorry!"

"Forget it. You'd better move out as soon as possible. I'll return the rest of the rent to you!"

Without giving Jimmy any chance to explain, the landlord turned around and left.

Jimmy didn't want to move, but he had no reason not to do so. It was already very kind of the landlord to be willing to return his rent.

Jimmy opened the door and started to pack up his stuff.

He didn't want to call the police. There was no monitoring in the building, and no one saw who did this. Of course, even if he saw it, who would expect the police to care about these trifles?

Two hours later, he put the things he had packed together, wiped the blood on the door and the corridor carefully with a duster cloth, and then picked up the phone.

Allen was his friend since childhood. In this case, the only person Jimmy could think of was him.

They paid off the rent and waited for about half an hour before a car stopped in front of Jimmy.

The door was opened and a young man about Jimmy's age jumped out.

He was dressed in a suit, a shirt, leather shoes, short hair and bright spirit. He was not particularly handsome. His only pair of eyes were very smart, and his behavior was optional and evil.

"Bro, what's wrong with you?" Allen asked with a smile as he helped Jimmy carry the luggage into the car.

"I was kicked out of the rental house. If it's convenient for you, let me stay for a few days."

"My home is also your home. You can live as long as you want. By the way, we haven't slept in the same bed for a long time. Let's look for the previous feeling tonight."

"Fuck off!"

Jimmy kicked him, but his mood was much better. He got in the car with him.

The relationship between friends was very subtle. Jimmy was introverted, while Allen was a complete outsider. There were so many friends growing up together, but the relationship between the two had been good since childhood.

Allen also rented an apartment alone, but he lived a much better life than Jimmy. The apartment was a Premium Apartment House of nearly a hundred square meters. The monthly rent was equal to Jimmy's annual income, which could be regarded as a real rich man. His parents gave him the first bucket of money, and he smoothly operated and stabilized it. The annual income of one million was not too much for a successful person.

------------

When Allen opened the door, Jimmy saw a woman watching TV in the living room.

She wore a tight black dress with light make-up. Although she looked young, she had a sense of dust.

As soon as the woman saw Allen, she left the sofa and grabbed his arm with a smile. She looked at Jimmy up and down with her charming eyes and asked, "honey, is this the friend you mentioned on the phone? My name is Vivian."

Vivian introduced herself politely

Jimmy came to the room, simply tidied up the bed and closed the door to sleep.

He had a lot of things to deal with, and that was why he needed to maintain his energy.

She didn't know how long she had slept. Jimmy was vaguely woken up by some noises from the next room.

At four o'clock in the afternoon.

It was obviously impossible for her to sleep a little longer. Although the woman's screams and the man's suppressed gasps were not too presumptuous, they could still be heard clearly from the wall.

He got up helplessly and went downstairs.

After dinner, it was almost six o'clock in the afternoon. He went into his room and tidied up, preparing to go to L entertainment city for registration. Coincidentally, Vivian also had to go to work, so Jimmy got on Allen's car.
