Chapter 430 Will Die!
"What do you mean by that?" Yosef and the others looked confused.
They knew their boss was a force in Avalonia—a man who had danced with death countless times, operated with ruthless efficiency, possessed brilliant intelligence, and had an unerring eye for people.
If he said the young man wasn't ordinary, then there was definitely something special about him.
"You didn't notice when Yosef was about to pull his gun? That guy saw it," the middle man explained. "Normal people react when they see a gun—shock, fear, something. But that guy's face barely changed. He stayed completely calm."
"That kind of composure and courage isn't something ordinary people have."
"Maybe you're overthinking it. He probably didn't even notice I was reaching for my gun," Yosef suggested.
"Even if he missed that, he should've been at least nervous when the three of us approached. He'd just beaten up one of our guys. But he stayed completely unfazed." The middle man's expression grew more serious.
"More importantly, I had a feeling that if we'd actually made a move on him, we would have ended up in bad shape. If we'd drawn guns, we would have ended up dead."
"Dead?"
Hearing this, Yosef, Uriah, and the others shuddered, a chill running down their spines. They couldn't believe a random drunk in a bar could be so dangerous.
But they didn't doubt their boss's judgment—he was rarely wrong.
"Silverlight City in Eagleland is truly a den of hidden dragons," Uriah sighed.
"If you hadn't told us to leave, we might've been in serious trouble tonight," Yosef wiped cold sweat from his forehead.
"Anyway, let's put this behind us. That guy seemed troubled about something, which is probably why he didn't give us more problems. Let's not provoke him," the middle man said firmly.
"Our priority is finding out why our distribution network collapsed. If I remember correctly, there's someone named Jesse in Galaxy District who works for the Murphy family. He used to handle our product too. Let's go find him and ask some questions."
"Got it," the young men nodded.

At Luxury Bar, a black BMW X5 slowly pulled into the parking lot. A man in his thirties stepped out, wearing a suit and thick glasses. His looks were average, but his face was full of excitement.
It was Tyrell.
After getting out, Tyrell quickly ran to the passenger side and opened the door. "Lisa, we're here!"
A woman with delicate features and gentle grace stepped out wearing a white dress—beautiful as a fairy, though her eyes were red from crying.
It was Lisa.
Just a while ago, under Larry and Daniel's persuasion, Lisa had agreed to go on a date with Tyrell.
In her mind, divorcing Noah was inevitable. Though it broke her heart, the gap in their status was simply too great.
But Lisa felt no attraction to Tyrell—in fact, she found him somewhat repulsive. Her feminine intuition warned her that he likely had ulterior motives. If not for Daniel and Larry's persistent pressure, she wouldn't have come at all.
"I thought we were going to a restaurant. Why are we at a bar?" Lisa's eyes widened as she read the "Luxury Bar" sign.
"Lisa, let's have a few drinks first, then head to dinner," Tyrell said with a smile.
"I don't drink," Lisa replied.
"Then you can have a soft drink! Let's just go in and chat for a bit."
Tyrell maintained his smile, but his eyes betrayed his true intentions. 'Once we're inside, I'll slip some alcohol into your drink. After you're drunk, you'll be all mine tonight.' The thought of Lisa undressed in his bed made his blood run hot.
Lisa remained silent before finally biting her lip. "Let's just go to the restaurant. I don't want to go to a bar."
The fact that he'd brought her to a bar on their first date made Lisa dislike Tyrell even more. Besides, she wasn't even divorced from Noah yet. Being out with another man felt like betrayal.
Suddenly, the sound of someone vomiting caught her attention.
Lisa glanced toward the noise, and her body froze.
"Honey?"
She couldn't believe she'd run into Noah here.
Concern immediately filled her eyes. Noah was drinking heavily—was he sick? Was he drinking so much because of the divorce?
The thought cut through her like a knife. She wanted to rush over and tell him she didn't want a divorce after all.
But then she noticed a girl supporting him. The girl had a pink mole between her eyebrows and was strikingly beautiful—on par with Lisa herself.
"Who is she?" Lisa wondered. She'd never seen this girl before, but with Noah's status, it wasn't surprising he'd have beautiful women around him.
A wave of sadness washed over her. She wished she was the one supporting Noah right now.
Lisa didn't approach them, but listened to their conversation.
"Mr. Anderson, where are you going to sleep?" Clementine asked softly.
"Back to the hotel," Noah replied. There were still some of Lisa's clothes at Oasis Villa, and Noah feared seeing them would only make him feel worse.
What Noah didn't know was that Luxury Bar was owned by a Silverlight City crime boss—the same boss who was currently detained at Royal No.1, with his operations now under Respect Noah Pavilion's control.
There was even a Respect Noah Pavilion member managing the bar, which explained why Noah hadn't been charged for his drinks.
"Back to the hotel?"
Lisa trembled at Noah's words. He was going to a hotel with this girl.
"But I guess it makes sense. We're getting divorced, so he can see whoever he wants. I have no right to interfere."
Lisa lowered her head as tears welled up in her eyes. Pain and despair flooded her heart as Noah and Clementine drove away.
"Lisa, if you don't want to go to the bar, we can go to the restaurant," Tyrell said. He realized he might have been too pushy, causing Lisa to become defensive.
"No, let's go to the bar after all."
After a moment of silence, Lisa watched Noah's car disappear, then turned and walked toward the bar.
Tyrell's eyes lit up as he followed her, feeling his chances improving for the night.

Less than thirty minutes later, Tyrell was kicked out of the bar, landing hard on the ground.
His face was bruised, his body covered in injuries, and his mouth bleeding badly.
"You idiot! You dared to mess with Noah's woman? You really have a death wish!" a cold voice said.
