Love At The Wrong Table

th

Emmanuel had deliberately left Jake around because he was the Fletcher

family’s head, but more importantly, the man had expressed the intention to

side with Emmanuel. Therefore, he knew that he had to show Jake he

somewhat trusted him.

Jake’s admiration for Emmanuel soared when he heard Robert’s explanation,

considering how reputable Robert was in the war realm.

Even the famous instructor of the Griffin Corps has to call Emmanuel ‘Master

This shows how powerful he truly is. He definitely has the strength to

compete with Teddy.

“Now that you are aware of the issue, what would you do about it?”

Emmanuel turned up the pressure on Robert. If he had to be honest, his

relationship with Robert might have been one of master and disciple, but it

was only in name, so he wouldn’t pressure Robert.

Whether Robert was worth keeping around depended entirely on what he

could achieve next.

“Master, I’ll cut all ties with Gerald and stop Diamond Titan Military

Technologies from working with Silver Fox Military immediately!” Robert said

without hesitation.

“More than ninety percent of Silver Fox Military weapons were supplied by

Diamond Titan Military Technologies. Once we stop their supply, they’ll quickly

run out of weapons. By then, they’ll be nothing but a lion without claws!”

Jake was thrilled upon hearing those words. That was precisely what he had requested Emmanuel to do, and it seemed that his wish was about to be

fulfilled!

With Silver Fox Military stripped of all their power and weapons, the Quill family can no longer use their military power to bully others!

Emmanuel nodded and said coldly to Robert, “Don’t you dare disappoint me!”

“Yes, Master!” Robert replied with a salute. He then added, “Master, I have a

request!”

Emmanuel was pragmatic, hence he was not surprised by Robert’s request

He was aware that at the heart of relationships were interests, especially in a

master–disciple relationship like theirs.

If Robert had acted on his feelings without discussing the benefits, it would

have triggered Emmanuel’s suspicions of him.

“If I help you take down the Silver Fox Military, please teach me the Drago

Hold Technique,” Robert asked, bowing his head.

Just like Nathan, he was blown away after watching Emmanuel’s Dragan Haid

Technique and swore he wouldn’t stop until he mastered it.

Nathan lacked the foundational skills and talent for martial arts, so he

achieved nothing even after prolonged practice. In contrast, Robert had

practiced diligently for half a year and made some headway, but still couldn’t grasp Emmanuel’s level of remote grabbing.

“Sure!”

As that, Emmanuel used his remote–grabbing technique to pull the painting

pinned to the room’s wall toward him!

Witnessing Emmanuel’s power for the first time, Jake’s expression shifted to

one of utter astonishment. No wonder even Robert acknowledges him as his

Master!

Robert marveled at how Emmanuel’s skills had improved since their previous

meeting.

“Alright, Master, I’ll get on it right away!” Being a soldier, Robert was quick and

decisive in his actions. After he finished his words, he immediately turned to

leave the room.

“Wait!” Emmanuel called out. “I need you to completely eliminate the Silver Fox Military. They are Teddy’s minions and need to be eradicated. Can you

make their weapons unusable within a week?”

“What?”

Jake was stunned. From his perspective, the only solution seemed to be

stopping the weapon supply from Diamond Titan Military Technologies. To his

surprise, Emmanuel’s demands were even more severe!

“Master, this might be a bit challenging!”

Robert was eager to agree, as doing so would help him gain favor with

Emmanuel. If he could fulfill the request, he would not only learn martial arts

but also facilitate collaborations between Diamond Titan Military

Technologies and Terence Group. This would allow his side to continue This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

advancing with the latest engine developments and potentially lead the

defense industry in the future.

Nonetheless, Emmanuel’s terms were really harsh!

“Cut the excuses!” Emmanuel’s face remained impassive, exuding a

commanding aura. “Is it doable? I’ll determine your reward based on your

performance!”

Robert hesitated briefly and then replied through gritted teeth, “Master, I’ll

“Good!” Emmanuel nodded and signaled him to get on with it.

Jake’s admiration for Emmanuel deepened, and he became convinced that

his decision to join Emmanuel’s side had been the right one.

After Robert left, Jake and Emmanuel were the only ones left in the room.

Instead of flattering Emmanuel, Jake directly suggested, “Mr. Lowe, since

we’re determined to take down the Tanner family and deal with the Quill

family, we need to ally with the Toma Family!”

“The Toma Family?” Emmanuel frowned slightly at the name.

His immediate priority was finding his sister Roselynn, followed by the

Chamber of Commerce chairman election in two months.

Jake added, “I’ve already instructed my men to use all the Fletcher family’s

resources in Eldoria to find your sister, but there’s no news yet. With the Toma
