After Being Cheating novel Chapter 248

Hobson's face darkened when he saw that they weren't paying him the proper attention that he needed. Did Daniel forget that he had a weapon pointed at his head? Was this the time to worry about Janet?

"Daniel Si, you surely live up to your name. I think I'll let you go today, so that you can help the Black Moon out a little in C Country."

Daniel's power couldn't be underestimated. It was said that the Si family was at the top of the elite of C Country and also, Daniel's granduncle was Vern Mu.

It was time for him to calm down. Hobson wouldn't have dared to make a move on him because, if he had started something there, both Daniel's old man, Harry Si, and his granduncle, would've gone after and butchered the entire Black Moon gang.

"You think too much." Daniel rejected his offer in an instant.

Hobson had already settled down. As he put down his weapon, he smiled, and then, glancing at Janet Shao, said,"I'm very interested in your lady. Why don't we have a fair competition?"

Then, Amy Ji screamed at him at the top of her lungs,"Hobson!"

But Hobson just glared at her, and replied,"Shut up!"

Daniel snickered arrogantly at him,"Why do you think you have the right to choose what to do?"

Hobson hit his woman, and then put the gun to Daniel's head. Daniel now had the name Hobson Gong carved on his brain!

Feeling Daniel's fury, Hobson stopped smiling immediately. Hobson knew that he couldn't ever possibly beat Daniel, but he was certain that he could start with Janet.

He turned to look at the men protecting Janet and memorized their faces.

"Miss Janet, I've heard that you brought a few Black Moon members to the police." His sneer almost made Janet vomit. She couldn't understand how a man in his thirties like Hobson could give out that sickening, stomach-churning smile all the time.

Janet held back her loathing, and scoffed,"What? Black Moon members tried to infiltrate the Tianye Men, but somehow turned out to be the victims? Hobson, why is everything you do such a disgrace?"

There was no such thing as playing fair to Hobson, and Janet was right.

"Janet, one day I will let you know the consequences of crossing the Black Moon!" Hobson gave Janet a cold stare before finally leaving with his men.

That wasn't his turf, and he wasn't that dumb to start a fight in a place where he had absolutely no advantage.

When his gang tried to take a detour and move past them, Jerry Shao raised his right arm in front of them and stopped Hobson.

"Did you just threaten my sister earlier in front of all of us?" Jerry Shao might have seemed as being polite and refined, but his gaze on Hobson was filled with a frightful, grim aggression.

"So you're Janet's brother. I shouldn't get on your bad side because, after all, I'm..." 'Going after her.' Hobson didn't get to utter them, and instead swallowed his last three words.

Sven then laid down his weapon and started laughing. He pointed at Daniel, and while speaking to Hobson, he said,"Hey, just look at Daniel there behind you. He's always trying really hard to please Janet, and Janet still doesn't give him the extra attention he wants. What makes you think that she's going to be interested in someone like you? Your type is just gonna make our Janet there lose her appetite for at least a couple of days!"

Sven was acting like a small-time mischief-maker. He didn't look like a gang leader, but instead he seemed to be more like a low-level street hustler of some sorts.

Janet saw Daniel glowering at Sven, and she couldn't help but smile. It was so nice to have a brother!

"Who the hell are you?" asked Hobson, while squinting at him. The man had a unique aura surrounding him, and he definitely wasn't an ordinary person.

Janet indeed had something up her sleeves, and it was no wonder that she had risen to the very top of the Tianye Men hierarchy in such a short time.

In Z Country, she had the support of all the four bosses there. In C Country, she had Daniel Si's... Daniel Si's support alone would've been enough for her!

"Who am I?" Sven chuckled and turned to Janet, and said,"Jane, let me borrow some of your fame a bit."

'Huh?' Janet was puzzled.

Sven then told Hobson,"I'm Janet's brother! And this guy right here is Cole. He's the son of Pangu's boss in Green Cold Country. Do you want me to continue with the others?"

Joseph Li was the boss of Pangu? The news shocked Janet as well.

If Sven hadn't said it, she'd have no way of ever knowing this detail!

Hobson's face now looked even worse; he hadn't expected Janet to have such powerful connections.

Sven continued,"And you dare to point your weapon at Daniel's head! Let's leave aside his own personal feats, and just talk for a while about his background. I think you know Vern Mu, his granduncle. The Yun family boss in Mando Bay, is Joey Yun, his godfather."

Everyone stood still and listened to Sven's rant. "You know what, forget even about the underworld. Let's talk about the legit side of things! Daniel's grandparents and uncles are all notable and outstanding people in A Country' armed forces. Even if you were a colonel, or even a senior colonel, you'd be nothing, compared to those guys!

Daniel has another uncle who is was basically the prince of C Country. And that's just Daniel. Should we talk about Janet now? Major Brian Han from C Country has been in the past a persistent pursuer of hers. The Han family is also a military clan..." When Sven got to this part, many angry looks shot at him like bullets.

But he seemed totally oblivious of them, and continued,"Her father was an internationally renowned lawyer, a living legend of the legal world, and her brother is going to take over her father's place soon. Lawyers! Their PR teams, and all the international resources behind them... huh, practically unlimited! Can you grasp how powerful they really are? Hey hey, where are you going?"

Sven started following the weakened Hobson and kept talking.

Janet almost laughed out loud, and said,"Sven really has a mouth on him!"

But Jerry told her with all the seriousness that he could,"Sven is really not exaggerating. All he said was true!"

Um... Was Daniel really that influential? And were her father and her brother really that resourceful? Moreover, what had Brian persistently pursued?

Just as Janet's mind had started to wander off, she felt a firm grip on her arm.

When she turned and saw Daniel's cold eyes, she asked,"What's this?"

Daniel sternly said to her,"Although Hobson now knows a lot about us, and he might be scared, but I'm still worried that he's gonna play dirty somehow. Starting from tomorrow, get Sven to prepare some weapons for your own self-defense."

He had also planned to install on all her cars, and various communication devices, trackers and self-defense triggering mechanisms.

Daniel wasn't afraid of Hobson, but not only was Hobson a dangerous weasel to deal with, he also had a cunning mastermind behind him.

Janet wouldn't last long in their games.

And Daniel would never forget that Hobson had dared to put a weapon to his head!

Janet didn't resist this time, and she nodded,"Okay."

Just one word was able to soften Daniel, and he rustled her hair bun, and said,"Good girl."

He then held her shoulder and they walked together towards the parking lot.

It was only after everyone had left, that the nearby shops dared to open their doors again. The security guards hiding in the dark were also relieved that the danger had passed.

The guards were just temporary employees of a tourism company, and usually they helped to keep the order around the street.

But when things got very real and threatening, they quickly cowered to safe cover.

Even after Hobson had got in his driver's sear, Sven was still blabbering besides his car window. Finally, Sven solemnly warned,"And if you ever dare to bring your dirty tricks on Janet again, I'm gonna live up to my name as 'The Scalpel' and kill you!"
