Chapter 255: I Have No Malice towards You
Noah was taken aback. He didn't expect Gideon to be so scared of him.
Evelyn, who was standing beside him, also had a change in expression and fear appeared in her eyes. She trembled in fear.
Noah had also kicked her at The Grand Horizon Hotel.
Noah was ruthless and paid no regard to personal feelings. He didn't care whether the other person was a girl or not. Once he said he would take action, he would do it.
How could she not be afraid?
"Gideon, don't be afraid, I have no malice towards you," Noah reassured Gideon.
Meanwhile, Zack and Anna at the same table exchanged looks.
"Noah?" Zack frowned, and a hint of anger burned in his eyes.
Zack was extremely resentful towards Noah. Lily, whom he had been pursuing tirelessly, chose Noah as her fake boyfriend. He had been holding a grudge about this matter.
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't suppress his anger.
"Noah?" Anna's gaze fell on Noah, her cherry lips slightly parted in surprise.
She didn't expect to encounter Noah in this place.
It was Noah who had helped her retrieve her bag at the Fortune Square that day. She still remembered his kindness.
After returning home, Anna had also tried using some connections to find Noah, but with no results.
But here, the two of them met again.
"I must have a strong connection with this Noah," Anna thought to herself, feeling her heart racing slightly.
"No malicious intent?" Gideon gave Noah a disdainful look. "I don't believe a word you say! Now, please stay away from me. This is a public place, with security nearby. Let me advise you, if you want to start a fight, think twice."
As Gideon said this, his legs were still trembling under the table, filled with fear and unease.
Upon hearing this, both Zack and Anna were surprised. Could it be that there was some unresolved conflict between Gideon and Noah?
Noah shook his head helplessly and sincerely said, "Gideon, we had some misunderstandings in the past, but I apologize to you. Is that acceptable? I'm sorry for hitting you before, and I hope you can accept my apology. I also promise that I won't lay a hand on you here."
"What? Noah hit Gideon?" Anna was shocked and puzzled. Gideon was a member of the powerful Winchester Family, and he would eventually take over as the head of the family. His status and influence far surpassed Noah's. Was Noah not afraid of Gideon's retaliation?
"A promise? I'm not that naive to believe your promise, Noah. It's better for us to keep our distance. We're like oil and water!" Gideon sneered, hoping that Noah would disappear from his sight.
The longer Noah stood here, the more terrified Gideon became.
"How can you make me believe that you have no ill intentions towards me?" Noah looked sincere.
His gaze was pure and devoid of impurities, which made Gideon somewhat believe him. Could it be that Noah really had no ill intentions?
"Alright, unless you swear!" Gideon gritted his teeth and decided to believe Noah once.
"I swear." Noah raised his left hand and earnestly said, "I have no ill intentions towards you. I sincerely apologize for the unpleasant incident earlier and hope you can forgive me. I also swear not to lay a hand on you."
Hearing this, Gideon secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from Noah's expression, he seemed harmless and wouldn't do anything to him.
Evelyn's worries were also alleviated.
"Alright, then tell me. What brings you here?" Gideon immediately put on an indifferent appearance, not believing that Noah came just to apologize.
"I've heard about the Winchester Family's logistics in Oceanbridge City. It's very powerful. Whether it's sea, air, or land transportation, it ranks among the top in the entire Starlight City," Noah said.
"I found Gideon because I wanted to establish logistics cooperation with your the Winchester Family," Noah said.
"Logistics cooperation?" everyone was confused.
"Noah, I didn't hear wrong, did I?" Gideon stared, "Are you an idiot? You, a delivery driver, want to establish logistics cooperation with me, the Winchester Family? What are you thinking?"
"Gideon, what are you saying? Noah here is a delivery driver?" Zack's eyes widened.
Anna also looked curious at Gideon.
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes! I was staying at a hotel with my girlfriend, ordered delivery, and it was Noah who delivered it!" Gideon explained.
"Hahaha!"
Zack slapped the table and laughed, "I can't believe it! Noah, you're actually a delivery guy! Hahaha, you think you're worthy of Lily? The rare metal you gave Lily at her birthday party, you didn't steal it, did you? I was suspicious of your background back then!"
"I can't believe it, you're just a delivery driver!"
"What's so funny? He makes a living with his own abilities and hard work, and he hasn't done anything illegal," Anna frowned, displeased with Zack and Gideon's attitudes.
"Noah, as you said, the logistics of the Winchester Family are very powerful, one of the best in Starlight City," Evelyn laughed while covering her mouth, "But, as a delivery driver, what do you have that qualifies you to cooperate with the Winchester Family? Is it that when a customer orders delivery, you let the Winchester Family's logistics team help you deliver and give them a small commission?"
"Hahaha!"
The table burst into laughter upon hearing this, finding it amusing.
"It's not me who wants to establish logistics cooperation with you, it's The Anderson Family Company behind me," Noah controlled his urge to punch someone and said to Gideon, "If we can establish this cooperation, it will be beneficial to the Winchester Family as well."
"The Anderson Family Company?"
Once again, the people at the table were confused; they had never heard of this company.
"Noah, what exactly is The Anderson Family Company? I know all about the reputable companies and corporations in Oceanbridge City, but I've never heard of The Anderson Family Company," Zack said, looking at Noah with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
"I don't think it's something made up," Evelyn chimed in with a light laugh. "The Anderson Family Company, with the last name 'Lin,' could very well be a company Noah created."
"A company created by a group of delivery guys?" Gideon's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands while laughing. "Noah, I think I know what kind of cooperation you want with our Winchester Family!"
He looked at Noah, seemingly serious. "You've gathered all the delivery guys in Oceanbridge City and created a company called The Anderson Family Company, right?"
"The cooperation you want from us is to have our Winchester Family use our own logistics to help your group of delivery guys with their deliveries, and in return, we get a commission?!" he exclaimed.
Upon hearing this, Zack burst into laughter while clutching his stomach. His expression contorted, and he nearly laughed his guts out. "Hahaha! Gideon, I didn't expect you to have a sense of humor! A group of delivery guys starting a company and then using your Winchester Family's logistics to help with deliveries... Hahaha!"
"Noah, if you strike a deal with the Winchester Family, I promise to order delivery from you every day and support your business! Five-star reviews for you!" he added, still chuckling.
"Hahaha!"
"I can't stop laughing!"
Laughter filled the table once again, and everyone looked at Noah with a mixture of mockery and jest.
