He turned to Third Shinobi and Fourth Shinobi of the Four Great Ninjas. “I need your help in holding off two
people...”
He leaned forward and carefully whispered his plan into their ears.
Then, they split up to carry out their respective tasks.
...
Linton Group’s shares continued to soar after it was revealed that the military was now a major shareholder of the
company.
Lacey was swamped with so much work that she didn’t even have the time to eat well, let alone send her child to
school.
Hence, the role naturally fell to Lacey’s parents, Daniel and Hannah.
To the elderly couple, there was nothing more joyful and rewarding than sending Missy to school and picking her up
afterward.
They headed towards Missy’s school almost one hour before classes ended.

The two vehicles were so near to each other that Daniel couldn’t hold their brake in time.
In just a split second, the cars collided violently.
Hannah instantly turned pale. “Oh no, we’re done for. That’s a Mercedes-Benz. It’s going to cost a lot.”
Even if their daughter was now rich, they had lived their entire lives in hardship, so their old mindsets remained.
The thought of having to fork out a large sum of money made their hearts ache.
“Don’t worry. They’re the ones at fault,” Daniel hurriedly assured his wife. “We don’t have to pay them; in fact,
they’ll have to pay us.”
The elderly couple got down.
Two men exited the Mercedes-Benz as well.
They were Third Shinobi and Fourth Shinobi.
The men were so big and tall that they glanced down at Daniel and Hannah from above, causing the elderly
woman’s heart to pound furiously.
“Are you blind, old man? Don’t you know how to drive? Pay up!” Third Shinobi yelled.
Daniel pretended to remain calm. “You deliberately swerved in front of us and hit the brakes all of a sudden, so
you’re responsible for the accident. You’re the ones who should be compensating us.”
“Piss off, old geezer! Are you trying to argue after crashing into us? You’d better pay up!”
Daniel was furious. “You’re not making any sense! But that’s fine. I have a dashcam. Let’s get the police to take
care of this.”
As soon as Daniel said that, he whipped out his phone to call the police.
Suddenly, Fourth Shinobi grabbed the phone and tossed it on the ground. “We don’t have time to wait for the cops.
Hand the money over now.”
Just as Daniel was about to go ballistic, Hannah tugged onto his shirt. “Forget it, Daniel. It’s better to lose some
money than to get into more trouble. Let’s not be late to pick Missy up.”
Daniel could only suppress his anger at the thought of Missy.
He couldn’t wait to see his precious little granddaughter.
“So, how much do you want?” he asked grimly.
“Five million,” Third Shinobi answered.

Daniel and Hannah couldn’t take it anymore. “Why are you asking for such an amount? Your car’s not even worth
that much!”
“This is a limited edition car. Five million isn’t a lot at all, considering how troublesome the maintenance is going to
be,” Third Shinobi remarked cynically.
Daniel certainly couldn’t come up with five million.
Just then, Hannah turned to Daniel. “Let’s give Zeke a call and have him take over this matter. We have to go get
Missy.”
“Alright.”
Hannah took out her phone.
But just as she was about to dial Zeke’s number, Third Shinobi did the same to her phone as he did to Daniel’s.
“Don’t even think about leaving without the five million we asked for.”
Daniel knitted his brows.
Something doesn’t seem right.
These guys don’t seem to be truly after the money.
