""It seems tolooks like they’re be Marcus's men. He’ has brought many people with him and he’shas blocked all the security guards we sent for support outside the corridor. HNow he’ is personally leading his men to barge inside now,." " After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the young security guard nervously explained as he gulped.

""Mr. Brown, I’m sorry apologize for being late and causing you trouble, Mr. Brown."" As he spoke, Marcus wiped the sweat off his forehead, seeming quite flustered. If Mr. Brown started blaming him for anything, he probably wouldn't be able to continue his work in the South district.
